How do i parent a gui to all players?

Help and Feedback Scripting Support
#1

So im trying to parent a gui to all players but im not sure how

local players = game.Players.LocalPlayer
newParty.Parent = players.PlayerGui.PlayGui.GamesMade.Duplicates
#2

So you want the same gui for all players? Just put it into starter gui and everyone can see it when they join.

#3

What you can do is clone the gui, and send the clone to the players.

Example:

local Players = game.Players
local Gui = --Your gui

for i,v in pairs(players:GetChildren()) do
local Clone = Gui:Clone()
Clone.Parent = v.PlayerGui
end

I’m not 100% sure this will work, but give it a try.

#4

isn’t startergui just a copy of playergui?

#5

Startergui just puts the gui you put in it to all players when they join

#6

i already tried something like that and it didn’t work

#7

nope still doesn’t work

#8

what do you mean it doesnt work? Im not sure what you are trying to do here. Please give some extra info.

#9

I have done some testing. It does work. I’m just finding a way so it does not loop.

#10

so im trying to make a partyframe visible for all players so they can join a player’s party in a gamesmade section

game.ReplicatedStorage.Events.PartyShowing.OnClientEvent:Connect(function(partyowner, hardcore, Selected, level, DungeonName, GamesMade)
	print(level)
	local players = game.Players.LocalPlayer
	print(players)
	local partyowner = players.PlayerGui:WaitForChild("PlayGui").CreateFrame.PartyOwner
	local startergui = game:GetService("Players")
	print(partyowner.Value)
		if players.Data.Level.Value >= level then
		print("higher")
		newParty.Parent = startergui.PlayGui.GamesMade.Duplicates
#11

i tried that to, but it didn’t work either

#12

I’m testing it right now, and it is going to all the players in the server.

EDIT: Realized it did not work, and it would go to only 1 player. My bad.

#13

Place the UI inside StarterGui then make sure you are using a local script to control the the UI. Server scripts don’t work for StarterGui unless you use remote events/functions.

The StarterGui automatically replicates the UI to every player.

#14

im doing it on local, and im parenting it to the playergui. why isn’t it working?

#15

Some one please correct me if I’m wrong but I have never heard of the PlayerGui only the StarterGui.

Use in ServerScriptService

game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(plr)
    local gui = (gui.path):Clone()
    gui.Parent = plr.PlayerGui
end)
#17

Playergui inside the player, it’s a replica of startergui

#18

PlayerGui is a folder inside Player, but in explorer say “StarterGui” like the “StarterPack” but in player is Backpack

#19

Ah I understand what you mean now:

You can see on the developer hub it says use Clone. PlayerGui (roblox.com)

Instance Clone ( )
Create a copy of an object and all its descendants, ignoring objects that are not Archivable

Therefor I believe your code should be:

local players = game.Players.LocalPlayer
newParty.Parent = players.PlayerGui.PlayGui.GamesMade:Clone
