Overhead Nametag Broke

Help and Feedback Scripting Support
1

Hey! So, I have scripted an overhead nametag, and it works. But, it only works on one player, so if you join the game, it will work on you. But once someone new joins, it disappears off of your head and appears on the person who joins head. Can anyone spot the error and help me fix it? Here is the script.

> local royalty = {
	
	2045300767, --hcpefuls
	1189028861, -- starrysouIs
	123618280, -- OLIWEGZ
	1571187305 -- d4coded
	
}

local colors = { 

	Color3.fromRGB(254, 0, 0),  
	Color3.fromRGB(255, 127, 0),
	Color3.fromRGB(255, 221, 1), 
	Color3.fromRGB(0, 200, 0), 
	Color3.fromRGB(0, 160, 199), 
	Color3.fromRGB(0, 55, 230), 
	Color3.fromRGB(129, 16, 210)

local function makeRainbow(label)

	label.TextColor3 = colors[1]

	local i = 1

	while true do

		local tween = TweenService:Create(

			label, 
			rainbowinfo, 
			{TextColor3 = colors[i]}

		) 

		tween:Play()

		repeat wait() until tween.Completed

This should be inside the PlayerAdded function

So like this?

local billboardui = ServerStorage:WaitForChild(“NameTag”):Clone()
game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(player)

player.CharacterAdded:Connect(function(character)
local billboarduiclone = ServerStorage:WaitForChild(“NameTag”):Clone()
billboarduiclone.Frame.PlayerName.Text = string.upper(player.Name)
billboarduiclone.Frame.Rank.Text = player:GetRoleInGroup(groupid)
billboarduiclone.Parent = workspace:WaitForChild(player.Name).Head
local username = billboardui:WaitForChild(“Frame”):WaitForChild(“PlayerName”)
local rank = billboardui:WaitForChild(“Frame”):WaitForChild(“Rank”)
local HRicon = billboardui:WaitForChild(“Frame”):WaitForChild(“Badges”):WaitForChild(“HighRank”)
local VIPicon = billboardui:WaitForChild(“Frame”):WaitForChild(“Badges”):WaitForChild(“VIP”)
local RPicon = billboardui:WaitForChild(“Frame”):WaitForChild(“Badges”):WaitForChild(“RobloxPremium”)

This should just be

local billboardui = ServerStorage:WaitForChild(“NameTag”)
game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(player)

The problem is that you were cloning the frame outside the function, so it was only being cloned once on server start, and shared between every player.
