So I am trying to make an random map script and works. But I tried to use one GUI visible when is loading. I tried to use PlayerGui but doesn´t work

local MapsFolder = game:GetService("Lighting").Maps
local Maps = MapsFolder:GetChildren()
local RoundTime = script.RoundTime
local IntermissionTime = script.IntermissionTime
local PlayerGui = game:GetService("Players"):WaitForChild("PlayerGui")


while true do
	local ChosenMap = Maps[math.random(1,#Maps)]
	local MapClone = ChosenMap:Clone()
	wait(IntermissionTime.Value)
	
	PlayerGui.MenuGui.LoadingGui.Visible = true
	
	wait(5)
	
	PlayerGui.MenuGui.LoadingGui.Visible = false
	
	MapClone.Parent = game.Workspace
	MapClone:MakeJoints()
	
	wait(RoundTime.Value)
	
	MapClone:Destroy()
end

Script located in ServerScriptService.

If this is a server script, you can’t reference the Player that way

What you can instead do, is get every player using a for i, v in pairs loop and change every Player’s GUI to enable/disable the LoadingGui when called

local MapsFolder = game:GetService("Lighting").Maps
local Maps = MapsFolder:GetChildren()
local RoundTime = script.RoundTime
local IntermissionTime = script.IntermissionTime
local Loading = false

while true do
	local ChosenMap = Maps[math.random(1,#Maps)]
	local MapClone = ChosenMap:Clone()
	wait(IntermissionTime.Value)
	
    for _, Player in pairs(game.Players:GetPlayers()) do
        Player.PlayerGui.MenuGui.LoadingGui.Visible = true
    end

    wait(5)

    for _, Player in pairs(game.Players:GetPlayers()) do
       Player.PlayerGui.MenuGui.LoadingGui.Visible = false
    end

	MapClone.Parent = game.Workspace
	MapClone:MakeJoints()
	
	wait(RoundTime.Value)
	
	MapClone:Destroy()
end

Thank you. I forgeted about one think (PlayerGui isn’t a child of the Players service)
