  1. What do you want to achieve? Keep it simple and clear!

I want to achive where a local script takes the customers username from a textbox where it is written up, so I can make a gui over the head that the customer is awating order.

  1. What is the issue? Include screenshots / videos if possible!
    Above.

  2. What solutions have you tried so far? Did you look for solutions on the Developer Hub?
    Tried searching but found nothing.

Do you have a script or anything to start off with?

3

I got everything else really, like where it adds the name to the textbox depending on who ordered the food, I just need the “awaiting order” thing.

4

So something like type a customer’s name into the text box?

5

No, but I want the script to take the username from the textbox so the ui is above the right head, or it won’t really work.

6

Can you share the script to us so maybe I can help you with that ?

script.Parent.MouseButton1Click:Connect(function()

script.Parent.Parent:TweenPosition(UDim2.new(0.500, 0, 1.45, 50),“In”, “Linear”,1.0,true)

wait (1)

script.Parent.Parent.Visible = false

game.ReplicatedStorage.Claim2:FireServer()

game.ReplicatedStorage.GivePoint:FireServer()

end)

It isn’t that neccary to share since everything else the other script does is put what the person ordered in text boxes and what the name of her or him is.

9

If you have the person’s name saved, you can just do

Game.Players:FindFirstChild("PlayersName").Name --Change PlayersName to the variable that saves the players name

And that will find the player’s name.

Just put this in the text box

while true do
game.Workspace.(customer).Name = script.Parent.Text
wait(0.2)
end
