:Clone() not working, used print() and it runs smoothly

Hello, I’m making a script and this is what I have

for k = 1, #roomType, 1 do
			local papa = script.Parent.Availability.Rooms.DemoRoom:Clone()
			papa.Name = "test" --roomType[k]
			papa.TextLabel.Text = "test" --roomType[k]
			papa.Position = UDim2.new(0, 1+(75*level),0, 28+((k)*30))
			papa.Visible = true
			if k % 5 == 0 then
				level = level + 1
			end
			wait()
		end

I tried many things but it doesn’t clone anything. I used prints and the code runs everything but the close doesn’t work.

Did you forget to set the parent, because I don’t see you setting the parent in that code snippet.

#3

Where is the folder that contains the rooms located? In ReplicatedStorage?

#4

StarterGUI, the parent of the cloned is inside a frame inside a frame inside a Screen Gui

#5

I don’t intend to change parent, when it clones it should be the same right?

#6

Ah, I see, so this is a GUI and not a model.

#7

You have to set the parent yourself when you clone an object. Try doing papa.Parent = YourLocationHere

#8

Does the GUI have its Enabled value set to true?

#9

Yeah that was my mistake, I read somewhere on the DevHub that it keeps the same parent but I just checked and I read wrong.
Thanks
