Billboard gui not appearing on all players

Help and Feedback Scripting Support
#1

I’m trying to make a billboard gui that appears on all players apart from yourself. I have to put the billboard gui into the playergui for the image buttons to work. I have wrote some code for this but it only applies the billboard gui to 1 of the players and for some players it doesn’t show the billboard gui at all.
Here is an example from the image below:

and this is the code im using:

local Players = game:GetService("Players")
local player = Players.LocalPlayer


local replicatedStorage = game:GetService("ReplicatedStorage")
local muteGui = replicatedStorage.muteGui

local function OnCharacter(Character)
	local playerGui = player:WaitForChild("PlayerGui")
	muteGui:Clone()
	muteGui.Parent = playerGui
	local frame = muteGui.Frame
	frame.Visible = true
	local UpperTorso = Character:WaitForChild("UpperTorso")
	muteGui.Adornee = UpperTorso
end

local function OnPlayer(Player)
	if Player ~= player then
		if Player.Character then
			OnCharacter(Player.Character)
		end
		Player.CharacterAdded:Connect(OnCharacter)
	end
end

for i, Player in pairs(Players:GetPlayers()) do
	OnPlayer(Player)
end

The reason it only appears once is because when you are checking for a new player, you only checked once

Here, you didn’t clone properly. What the script is reading is that it parents the muteGui (which is in RS) to the player who first joins, so there’s no more GUI to clone to the rest of the players.

Your code is also unnecessarily complicated, I’ve simplified it

You can put this in StarterCharacterScripts

local Players = game:GetService("Players")
local Player = Players.LocalPlayer
local PlayerGui = Player:WaitForChild('PlayerGui')

local muteGui = game.ReplicatedStorage:WaitForChild('muteGui')
local muteGuiClone = muteGui:Clone()
local frame = muteGuiClone.Frame

muteGuiClone.Parent = PlayerGui -- Parents the CLONE to the player's PlayerGui
frame.Visible = true

Also is there a reason you’re setting the Adornee to the Player’s UpperTorso?

I want the billboard gui to be on their torsos because im making a button to mute a single player instead of muting all the players. That’s also why I think ill need the if statement to stop the player playing the game receiving the mute button on their torso

Just call remoteEvent in local script, and in Script write code

I just done that now, I’m still getting the same issue of only a few players having the billboard gui on them.
