Changing touch connect to proximity prompt

Help and Feedback Scripting Support
#1

I am having trouble changing this touch connect script to a proximity prompt. Here is the touch connect.

local b = script.Parent
local scroll_note = b:WaitForChild'scroll_note'
b.Touched:connect(function(hit)
	local c = hit.Parent
	if c then
		local p = game.Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(c)
		if p then
			if not p.PlayerGui:FindFirstChild("scroll_note") then
				local g = scroll_note:Clone()
				g.cutoff.Frame.scroll.TextLabel.TextWrapped = true
				g.cutoff.Frame.scroll.TextLabel.Text = text
				local newscript = g:WaitForChild("scroll_note")
				g.Parent = p.PlayerGui
				newscript.Disabled = false
			end
		end
	end
end)

I tried changing it to this and the prompt wont open.

local b = script.Parent
local scroll_note = b:WaitForChild'scroll_note'
local prompt = script.Parent.ProximityPrompt

prompt.Triggered:Connect(function(hit)
	local c = hit.Parent
	if c then
		local p = game.Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(c)
		if p then
			if not p.PlayerGui:FindFirstChild("scroll_note") then
				local g = scroll_note:Clone()
				g.cutoff.Frame.scroll.TextLabel.TextWrapped = true
				g.cutoff.Frame.scroll.TextLabel.Text = text
				local newscript = g:WaitForChild("scroll_note")
				g.Parent = p.PlayerGui
				newscript.Disabled = false
			end
		end
	end
end)

ProximityPrompt.Triggered’s event returns the player, not the character part.

(hit is the player not one of it’s parts)

Code Solution if you really cant figure out how it works 
prompt.Triggered:Connect(function(p)
  if not p.PlayerGui:FindFirstChild("scroll_note") then
    local g = scroll_note:Clone()
    g.cutoff.Frame.scroll.TextLabel.TextWrapped = true
    g.cutoff.Frame.scroll.TextLabel.Text = text
    
    local newscript = g:WaitForChild("scroll_note")
    g.Parent = p.PlayerGui
    newscript.Disabled = false
  end
end)

local gui = script.Parent
local scroll_note = gui:WaitForChild("scroll_note")
local prompt = script.Parent:WaitForChild("ProximityPrompt")

prompt.Triggered:Connect(function(plr)
	if plr then
		if not plr:FindFirstChild("PlayerGui"):FindFirstChild("scroll_note") then
			local snClone = scroll_note:Clone()
			gui.cutoff.Frame.scroll.TextLabel.TextWrapped = true
			gui.cutoff.Frame.scroll.TextLabel.Text = "" --change to text
			local newscript = gui:WaitForChild("scroll_note")
			gui.Parent = plr.PlayerGui
			newscript.Disabled = false
		end
	end

As the previous reply stated whenever a prompt is triggered the player object pertaining to the player which triggered the prompt (causing the event to fire) is automatically passed as an argument to any function connected to the event.

I’d like it if you didn’t copy-paste my post but I digress
