GUI open script! BASIC SCRIPTING!

Help and Feedback Scripting Support
#1

Hello! So i have in my game a part that when touched it should open a GUI JUST for the player that touched it, but instead, it opens for everyone in the server. I have tried ALL of the scripts that are out there and none work!

Scripts i tryed:

„local player = game:GetService(“Players”).LocalPlayer
game.Workspace.OpenGuiPart.Touched:Connect(function(hit)
if hit and hit.Parent.Name == player.Name then
script.Parent.rom.MainFrame.Visible = true
end
end)„

Another one:

„local part = game.Workspace.OpenGuiPart

part.Touched:Connect(function()
script.Parent.rom.MainFrame.Visible = true
end)„

Thank you in advance!

Please embed your code with three backticks before and after the code.

local player = game:GetService(“Players”).LocalPlayer
game.Workspace.OpenGuiPart.Touched:Connect(function(hit)
    if hit and hit.Parent.Name == player.Name then
        script.Parent.rom.MainFrame.Visible = true
    end
end)

im sorry but i dont know what any of that means :)))))

Is this a local script?
(ignore this pls)

#5

The backtick is this character: `
You can find it by pressing the button underneath Esc in the top right of your keyboard (on most keyboards)

Kind of a complicated process.
STEP 1:
Create a RemoteEvent and place it in ReplicatedStorage. Name this RemoteEvent as ‘openGuiOnTouch’.
STEP 2:
Add a script inside the part:

local part = script.Parent
local remote = game.ReplicatedStorage.openGuiOnTouch

part.Touched:Connect(function(hit)
if hit.Parent:FindFirstChild("Humanoid") then remote:FireClient(game.Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(hit.Parent))
end)

STEP 3:
Add a LocalScript inside StarterGui. Put this code inside:

local remote = game.ReplicatedStorage.openGuiOnTouch
remote.OnClientEvent:Connect(function()
local gui = --the gui you want to open
gui.Visible = true
end)

No, just keep that script as it is.

print("Embed code like this, or with the </> button above.")

Your scripts would look like this:

-- LocalScript
local player = game.Players.LocalPlayer
game.Workspace.OpenGuiPart.Touched:Connect(function(hit)
	if hit and hit.Parent.Name == player.Name then
		script.Parent.rom.MainFrame.Visible = true
	end
end)

-- Most likely the issue
local part = game.Workspace.OpenGuiPart

part.Touched:Connect(function()
	script.Parent.rom.MainFrame.Visible = true
end)
