How to make something happen after all players click on a gui?

Hey there! I’m trying to make a cutscene skipper when everyone clicks on the “Skip” gui, but I’m not sure where to start. If y’all could help, that would be great!

You could do something like that

local script

local ReplicatedStorage = game:GetService("ReplicatedStorage")
local SkipEvent = ReplicatedStorage:WaitForChild("SkipEvent") --Remote Event

GuiButton.MouseButton1Click:Connect(function()
    SkipEvent:FireServer()
end

Server script

local PlayerService = game:GetService("Players")
local ReplicatedStorage = game:GetService("ReplicatedStorage")
local SkipEvent = ReplicatedStorage:WaitForChild("SkipEvent") --Remote Event
local PlayersReadyToSkip = {}

SkipEvent.OnServerEvent:Connect(function(Player)
    if table.find(PlayersReadyToSkip, Player) then
        table.remove(PlayersReadyToSkip, Player) --Unready to skip
    else --Ready > Unready // Unready > ready // switch depending on if you click the button multiple times
        table.insert(PlayersReadyToSkip, Player) --Ready to skip
    end

    if #PlayersReadyToSkip == #PlayerService:GetPlayers() then
         --Skip Cutscene
    end
end

PlayerService.PlayerRemoving:Connect(function(Player)
     if table.find(PlayersReadyToSkip, Player) then
        table.remove(PlayersReadyToSkip, Player)
    end
end

unnecessary resources

    for _, CurrentPlayer in pairs(PlayerService:GetChildren()) do
        if not (table.find(PlayersReadyToSkip, Player)) then
            AllPlayersReady = false
        end
    end

→ 

if #PlayersReadyToSkip ~= #PlayerService:GetPlayers() then return end

-- skip cutscene

Does this all go in the Sever script?

Just copy & paste what @Crygen54 wrote, the top one in a localscript and the bottom one in a serverscript

Didn’t work for me, I had to add a couple parethesis at some of the ends so I wouldn’t get any errors, but whenever I click nothing happens in the output

local PlayerService = game:GetService("Players")
local ReplicatedStorage = game:GetService("ReplicatedStorage")
local SkipEvent = ReplicatedStorage:WaitForChild("SkipEvent") --Remote Event
local PlayersReadyToSkip = {}

SkipEvent.OnServerEvent:Connect(function(Player)
   if table.find(PlayersReadyToSkip, Player) then
   	table.remove(PlayersReadyToSkip, Player) --Unready to skip
   else --Ready > Unready // Unready > ready // switch depending on if you click the button multiple times
   	table.insert(PlayersReadyToSkip, Player) --Ready to skip
   end

   if #PlayersReadyToSkip == #PlayerService:GetPlayers() then
   	print("Skipped")
   end
end)

PlayerService.PlayerRemoving:Connect(function(Player)
   if table.find(PlayersReadyToSkip, Player) then
   	table.remove(PlayersReadyToSkip, Player)
   end
end)

Also here’s the button script (I added a keyboard function):

local ReplicatedStorage = game:GetService("ReplicatedStorage")
local SkipEvent = ReplicatedStorage:WaitForChild("SkipEvent") --Remote Event
local Plr = game.Players.LocalPlayer

script.Parent.MouseButton1Click:Connect(function()
	SkipEvent:FireServer()
end)

Plr:GetMouse().KeyDown:Connect(function(F)
	if F == "f" then
		SkipEvent:FireServer()
		
	end
end)
