Gui will NOT Disable, Output says otherwise

Help and Feedback Scripting Support
#1

Basically, there’s an X button to close a GUI. It doesn’t disable the GUI but the output says otherwise.

script.Parent.MouseButton1Click:Connect(function()
local player = script.Parent.Parent.Parent.Parent.Parent.Parent

print(script.Parent,script.Parent.Parent,script.Parent.Parent.Parent,script.Parent.Parent.Parent.Parent,script.Parent.Parent.Parent.Parent.Parent)
local gui =  player.PlayerGui:WaitForChild("BoothGui")
gui.Enabled = false
print(gui)
print('gui  disabled')

end)

Does anyone know what’s happening?

You are using a server script inside of a GUI. Try changing this to a LocalScript

With this, you can set the player variable to game.Players.LocalPlayer

you can use server scripts in StarterGui, but yea it is better to do this locally instead of doing it for everyone on the server

Its weird that it works in only local scripts but im glad. Most of my Gui Stuff is in serverscripts and still functions normally.

Mhm. Sometimes you can get away with it, but you should try to stick to doing GUI scripts locally. Glad to help!
