Hello, may I please be helped I am strugling with something. (This is my first forum)

I want to make a gui to become visible after talked to a NPC

Right now I want it to print something and it is not printing

I have moved the local script to starter player scripts

local Dialog = workspace.Scientist.Head.Dialog


function selected(plr, choice)
	if choice == Dialog.DialogChoice then
		print("Worked")
	end
end

Dialog.DialogChoiceSelected:Connect(selected)

	end
end

try to implement a print above the if statement to check it is even triggering the DIalogChoiceSelected

I tried that now and still nothing. I think the script might be in wrong place?

If the print is not printing, it means the DialogChoiceSelected Event is not being triggered.

That’s because it is a local script, change it to a server script inside serverscriptservice. If you still want to make it a local script, try to use a remote event.

#11

Local scripts don’t have direct access to workspace, thus needing a remote event to communicate within the server

Still nothing maybe it could be because Roblox dialogues are old?

#13

where did you put the server script?

#14

I put it in server script service

#15

is the script like that?

local Dialog = workspace.Scientist.Head.Dialog

Dialog.DialogChoiceSelected:Connect(function(plr, choice)
	if choice == Dialog.DialogChoice then
		print("worked")
	end
end)

For me it worked. Also, remember you can’t start a dialog with an empty InitialPrompt.

#16

My script is now like that and still nothing

#17

Could it be todo with game settings?

#18

it doesn’t print a thing? What does it say when you click on the dialog

I don’t think it has something to do with the game settings
