Is it not finding our frame? That is strange. Maybe the frame is not an item yet because I am adding the frame at the same time as I am changing plerr.DropItem to true?

I dont think that is it though.

Yeah, I do think that’s the issue.

That could be what’s causing it as you’re not giving the game time to find it, maybe try adding a wait() between adding the frame and setting it to true

Using wait() is bad practice!

Why?

Avoiding wait() and why

This is an adaptation of a Twitter thread I made a while ago. This is simply a better formatted and more fleshed out version. Let’s talk about wait(). Not wait(n) (although if you are using small n values to where it’d be barely distinguishable from wait(), you’re probably going to hit the same issues mentioned in this thread). We probably learned about wait() at first as the solution to “why are my infinite loops crashing me?”. It’s a super easy solution and it works! This starts a bad habit…

Yes I know that, but using it in this case will help determine if there’s not enough time between both actions that it doesn’t show up during the loop. @OP can decide if he wants to find a better way to do it or not if it in the end was due to not enough time between both actions

for _,ImageB in pairs(InventoryGUI.ItemOrder:GetDescendants()) do
	InventoryGUI.ItemOrder.ChildAdded:Connect(function()
		print("DEF")
		if ImageB:IsA("ImageButton") then
			print("OVSE")
		end
	end)
end

It print “DEF” but wont print “OVSE”. Why do you think this is? The Image button is added before.

[EmbatTheHybrid (Embat)]

It’s probably the way you did it maybe try this

InventoryGUI.ItemOrder.ChildAdded:Connect(function()
	print("DEF")
	for _,ImageB in pairs(InventoryGUI.ItemOrder:GetDescendants()) do
		if ImageB:ISA("ImageButton") then
			print("OVSE")
		end
	end
end)

Edit: Forgot a bracket

You are very right. Okay thanks Ill see if the rest works out.
