I’m trying to make gui show when player enter safe zone

local part = script.Parent
local region = Region3.new(part.Position - part.Size/2, part.Position + part.Size/2)

local rp = game:GetService("ReplicatedStorage")
local remoteF = rp.showGui

part.Size = region.Size
part.Anchored = true
part.CanCollide = false
local ignore = {workspace.Baseplate, part, workspace.SpawnLocation}

while true do
	wait()
	

	part.Size = region.Size

	local partsInRegion = workspace:FindPartsInRegion3WithIgnoreList(region, ignore, math.huge)

	if #partsInRegion ~= 0 then
		for i,v in pairs(partsInRegion) do
			local humanoid = v.Parent:FindFirstChild("Humanoid") or v.Parent.Parent:FindFirstChild("Humanoid")
			if humanoid then
				remoteF:FireClient(humanoid.Parent)
				print(humanoid.Parent)
				humanoid.HealthChanged:Connect(function(hp)
					humanoid.Health = 100
					wait(0.1)
				end)
			end
			
		end


	end

end

Thank for helping :grin:

I’m guessing this supposed to make gui update but :FireClient() takes a player argument, not character. To get player from character you can use game.Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter() so you should do this to fix that:

local player = `game.Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(humanoid.Parent)
remoteF:FireClient(player)

  1. Make a safe zone GUI
  2. Move the GUI to ServerStorage
  3. If player’s character has touched the region and the player doesn’t have the safe zone GUI: clone the GUI from ServerStorage and set Parent property of the GUI to player.PlayerGui

Inform me about having any issue(s) with any of the steps above.

Do you mean destroying the GUI if player’s character leaves the safe zone?

yes I don’t know how do I put it some time when it will error when the gui isn’t declare yet

Forgot to mention that FireClient() is not needed here to give the GUI.

Modify your region script to make a table of players inside the region for every region update:

local part = script.Parent
local region = Region3.new(part.Position - part.Size/2, part.Position + part.Size/2)

local rp = game:GetService("ReplicatedStorage")
local remoteF = rp.showGui

part.Size = region.Size
part.Anchored = true
part.CanCollide = false
local ignore = {workspace.Baseplate, part, workspace.SpawnLocation}

while true do
	wait()
	local playersInRegion = {} -- The script should make a table of players, who are inside the region

	part.Size = region.Size

	local partsInRegion = workspace:FindPartsInRegion3WithIgnoreList(region, ignore, math.huge)

	if #partsInRegion ~= 0 then
		for i,v in pairs(partsInRegion) do
			local humanoid = v.Parent:FindFirstChild("Humanoid") or v.Parent.Parent:FindFirstChild("Humanoid")
			if humanoid then
				remoteF:FireClient(humanoid.Parent)
				print(humanoid.Parent)
				humanoid.HealthChanged:Connect(function(hp)
					humanoid.Health = 100
					wait(0.1)
				end)
			end

		end


	end

end

EDIT: You can use this function for getting all players in region if you struggle to do it:

local function getAllPlayersInRegion(regionParts)
	local tableOfPlayers = {}
	for i, v in pairs(regionParts) do
		local player = game:GetService("Players"):GetPlayerFromCharacter(v:FindFirstAncestorOfClass("Model"))
		if player then
			table.insert(tableOfPlayers, player)
		end
	end
	return tableOfPlayers
end

How to delete the GUI if player left the region:
Use playersInRegion table to remove the GUI from players, who are outside the region. Use and modify this piece of code:

for i, v in pairs(game:GetService("Players"):GetPlayers()) do
	if table.find(playersInRegion, v) == nil and v.PlayerGui:FindFirstChild("GUI_NAME_HERE") then
		v.PLayerGui.GUI_NAME_HERE:Destroy()
	end
end
