How to Disable the default UI loading from character spawning in?

  1. What do you want to achieve?
    I want to be able to disable Roblox’s default system where the UI from the StarterGui loads in.

  2. What is the issue?
    I have a code that would preload the UI to PlayerGui, but upon manually loading character in, it duplicates the UI to PlayerGui. I’ve disabled the auto spawn feature which requires me to load some UI to the player PlayerGui.

  3. What solutions have you tried so far?
    I could delete the old UI once I load character, but this will eventually flood my code and it’d be a hassle to manage once I have more UI being added.

You are using the :LoadCharacter function right?

I have an idea of ​​what you can do. Turn off all scripts in the user interface, let the script load them in advance and turn them on from script to avoid unexpected errors when a duplicate appears. Set each new element that is loaded by your script to an attribute or tag and create the following function:

-- StarterPlayerScripts

local CollectionService = game:GetService("CollectionService")
local PlayerGui = script.Parent.Parent.PlayerGui

PlayerGui.DescendantAdded:Connect(function(Descendant)
	-- Example 1
	if not CollectionService:HasTag(Descendant, "TagName") then
		Descendant:Destroy()
	end
	
	-- Example 2
	if not Descendant:HasTag("TagName") then
		Descendant:Destroy()
	end
	
	-- Example 3
	if typeof(Descendant:GetAttribute("AttributeName")) == "nil" then
		Descendant:Destroy()
	end
end)
