—show gui

Please help me i already tried it but its not working

local BronzeTiers = {“Frepzter”,“FrepzterRB”}

while true do
wait()
for i,verify in pairs(BronzeTiers) do
if verify == script.Parent.Parent.Parent.Name then
warn(verify…" is a moderator")
script.Parent.Enabled = true
else
warn(verify…" is not a moderator")
script.Parent.Enabled = false
end
end

What’s not working? You need to be more specific

You can use table.find(moderators, Name) to see is the player in the table.

#3

The error is that the gui, It doesn’t show the gui

#4

You only set it to Enabled. Try

script.Parent.Visible = true
#5

ScreenGui only has an Enabled property

#6

I thought there would of been a frame…

What you should do is check this on the server and then parent the ScreenGui class to the player’s PlayerGui.

Example:

local ModeratorIds = {1, 2, 3, 4}
game:GetService("Players").PlayerAdded:Connect(function(Player)
    if table.find(ModeratorIds, Player.UserId) then
        gui_path.gui:Clone().Parent = Player:WaitForChild("PlayerGui")
    end
end)

@Wxeeknd works brilliantly however it doesnt reappear when player respawned i tried making a characterAdded Event but still wont work

local ModeratorIds = {288094249}
local plrService = game:GetService(“Players”)
plrService.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(Player)
Player.CharacterAdded:Connect(function(char)
if table.find(ModeratorIds, Player.UserId) then
game.ServerStorage.BronzeMod:Clone().Parent = Player:WaitForChild(“PlayerGui”)
end
end)
end)

You can untick ‘Reset on Spawn’ in the properties of the Gui if you don’t want it to reset

#13

well you could do if table.Find(admins,userid)
then do local yes = GUI:Clone()
yes.Parent = p.PlayerGui

Setting “Reset on spawn” to false should do the trick, unless there is some other script interfering.

An alternative is to move the GUI to ReplicatedStorage then make a script in ServerScriptService that goes along the lines of

local gui = game.ReplicatedStorage[""] --fill in quotation marks with name of gui | this defines the pathway

local moderators = {"Frepzter", "FrepzterRB"}

game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(plr) --connects a function when the playeradded event is fired
	if table.find(moderators, plr.Name) then --looks for the player's name in the moderators table
		local ui = gui:Clone() --clones the gui
		ui.Parent = plr.PlayerGui --parents the gui to the player's playerugi
		ui:FindFirstChildWhichIsA("Frame").ResetOnSpawn = false --sets the resetonspawn property to false
	end
end)

If you wanted to, you could swap out the string values in the “moderators” table for intvalues, and swap “plr.Name” to “plr.UserId”
