How do i clone gui only once for each player in game

[NotZylon (shiesty)]

wouldn’t that just make it show for one client? Sorry i don’t really understand it

[elonrocket]

as I said in my previous post you are not passing the player

@elonrocket

On the client script you posted you don’t take into account the player object that gets passed through the RemoteEvent, you want to place the GUI in each player character.

RP.Remotes.ShowForAllClients.OnClientEvent:Connect(function(player)
	local newTemplate = tradingTemplate:Clone()
	newTemplate.Parent = player.Character -- or anywhere you want
	newTemplate:WaitForChild("playerName").Text = player.Name
end)

no I just wanted to know what his code was lol

[FrazedGreatness2 (Frazed)]

All you need is a server script @NotZylon I did it for my roleplay game I will show some of the code:

-- //ServerScript
game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(player)
    player.CharacterAdded:Connect(function(character)
        local bill = Instance.new("BillboardGui")
        bill.Parent = workspace
        bill.Adornee = character.Head
    end)
end)

you need to learn more about events lmao

[elonrocket]

FireAllClients, fire a remote to all the clients at once. If the server wants to tell all the clients that there is another player you can do

game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(player)
     Remote:FireAllClients(player) -- pass which player joined
end)

on the client

remote.OnClientEvent:Connect(function(player)
    -- now we can do whatever we want and use the "player" value that was passed through
end)

this is what happens when i use fireallclients
On one client:

And on the other client:

This thread is getting way too long everyone is just repeating themselves at this point.

[FrazedGreatness2 (Frazed)]

Yeah that would work too because it fires all the players / acts like the server so it shows all players

[D0RYU (nici)]

ik you only need a server script
ALSO he doesn’t need a billboardGui
and I was only fixing the code he gave me

[FrazedGreatness2 (Frazed)]

I know he can change the billboardgui that was my code

[FrazedGreatness2 (Frazed)]

for Example to show him

[D0RYU (nici)]

you don’t need FireAllClients tho XD

[FrazedGreatness2 (Frazed)]

I didn’t come up with it your replying to me lol XD

[D0RYU (nici)]

no I said he didn’t want a billboard gui at all
he is just using normal gui

[elonrocket]

ight imma head out, idk what to tell you I provided you with the options and explained how they work in previous posts

FireAllClients, fire a remote to all the clients at once. If the server wants to tell all the clients that there is another player you can do game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(player) Remote:FireAllClients(player) -- pass which player joined end) on the client remote.OnClientEvent:Connect(function(player) -- now we can do whatever we want and use the "player" value that was passed through end)

If you are making an overhead Gui (like a billboard Gui in the workspace), in this case it makes the most sense to do it on the server.

anyway I'll tell you what's wrong with the code

On the client script you posted you don’t take into account the player object that gets passed through the RemoteEvent, you want to place the GUI in each player character. RP.Remotes.ShowForAllClients.OnClientEvent:Connect(function(player) local newTemplate = tradingTemplate:Clone() newTemplate.Parent = …

[FrazedGreatness2 (Frazed)]

I know that I used it as example that you only need server script

[NotZylon (shiesty)]

i used that, and i showed you an image of what happened

this is a funny forum post that should’ve ended ages ago
