(help), what do I have to do to make it work

Hi, this is a script to activate a ScreenGui, which supposedly gives me two options to buy and close, but everything is fine, except that I want only one person to be activated, not the whole server

Script: “StarterPlayer” - “StarterPlayerScripts” Is a Local Scripts

local Player = game.Players.LocalPlayer

local PlayerGui = Player:WaitForChild("PlayerGui")

local function onTouched(hit)

local Open = PlayerGui.BuyZoneUnderwater:WaitForChild("Hijo")

if hit.Parent:FindFirstChildWhichIsA('Humanoid') then

Open.Visible = true

end

end

game.Workspace.Portales.PortalUno.Touched:Connect(onTouched)

LocalScripts only work on the Client (a player playing the game), so your GUI will not appear on the entire server. Only for the Client.

#3

Yes, that’s why it’s in a local script

Maybe relocate it to StarterGui and see if that works???

#5

Still doesn’t work for me :frowning:

#6

Are you getting any errors in the output?

#7

It does not skip errors in the output because it is a script that works, the problem is that when it is opened all the people on the server can also see it, in addition, it is a LocalScript

#8

Use Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter() and compare that to Players.LocalPlayer. If both are the same, then show the GUI.

#9

Everyone can see the ScreenGui because you don’t check that the person that touched the portal is the LocalPlayer

local Players = game:GetService("Players")
local LocalPlayer = Players.LocalPlayer

local PlayerGui = Player:WaitForChild("PlayerGui")

local function onTouched(hit)
	local Open = PlayerGui.BuyZoneUnderwater:WaitForChild("Hijo")
	if hit.Parent:FindFirstChildWhichIsA('Humanoid') then
		local Player = Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(hit.Parent) -- Get the player from the touched part's character
		if Player and Player == LocalPlayer then -- Check if the character belongs to a player and the player that touched the part is the LocalPlayer
			Open.Visible = true
		end
	end
end

Try using the script I sent above

#12

I get an error on line 4 :frowning:

#13

Can you clarify what the problem is? And how you want your GUI to work?

#14

You are indexing Player variable (which is nothing) instead of LocalPlayer variable.

#15

What I want to do is that not all players see the ScreenGui but the player who touched it

#16

In your latest picture, you use a Script. Try using a LocalScript.

#17

It is a localscript. :frowning:

#18

Alright, as I see, you got no soloution yet to this problem. I think the script that @heII_ish sent here should work, but there was a typo which I have pointed on. As I see you didn’t realise how to fix that error on line 4, so I will just send here the whole @heII_ish’s script, but with a fix for that error.

local Players = game:GetService("Players")
local LocalPlayer = Players.LocalPlayer

local PlayerGui = LocalPlayer:WaitForChild("PlayerGui")

local function onTouched(hit)
	local Open = PlayerGui.BuyZoneUnderwater:WaitForChild("Hijo")
	if hit.Parent:FindFirstChildWhichIsA('Humanoid') then
		local Player = Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(hit.Parent) -- Get the player from the touched part's character
		if Player and Player == LocalPlayer then -- Check if the character belongs to a player and the player that touched the part is the LocalPlayer
			Open.Visible = true
		end
	end
end

Sorry, didn’t notice the typo, thanks for fixing it
