heres my function

local function ShowGui(Player)
if Player:FindFirstChildOfClass("HumanoidRootPart") then
local frame = Player:FindFirstChild("PlayerGui").Shop.MenuFrame
frame.Visible = false
end

yeah, thats all I can come up with…

#2

You forgot to close the function by adding another end

#3

And besides that, what kind of help do you even need?

#4

Do this:

local function ShowGui(Player)
if Player.Character:FindFirstChild("HumanoidRootPart") then
local frame = Player:FindFirstChild("PlayerGui").Shop.MenuFrame
frame.Visible = false
end
#5

whoops, my bad.
I didn’t copy-and-paste correctly
(Didnt copy and paste the last end)

#6

I tried @dutycall11 's code and it didn’t do anything, but stop my game

although something poped up in the middle of my output
–ServerScriptService.GameScript:56: attempt to index nil with 'Character'

#7

If this script runs before your character has loaded in it will produce nil for character children… so instead of FindFirstChild, use WaitForChild.

#8

Your gonna have to provide more code for us to fix that

#9

Now if I use WaitForChild it says to index nil with 'WaitForChild'

#10

You have your script in ServerScriptService but this is a GUI and needs to be handled through local script. Place this in a local script inside the Gui.

Either that or you will have to fire a client event through the server script.

#11

Make sure whatever UI you are trying to make visible is in starter gui, and then use this script:

local function ShowGui(player)
    if player:FindFirstChildOfClass("HumanoidRootPart") then 
        local frame = player.PlayerGui:FindFirstChild("Frame")
        frame.Visible = false
    end
end
