Pad script shows gui for every player and not one only

Help and Feedback Scripting Support
#1

I’m trying to make this script appear for the one person who touches it but when its touched every player in the server gets cycled through and given it.

Players = game:GetService("Players")
local Hot = script.Parent.Parent.Parent.Parent.LabEntrance.Plap
local sound = "rbxassetid://8871318721"
script.Parent.Touched:Connect(function(hit)
	if hit.Parent:FindFirstChild("Humanoid") then
		for i, player in pairs(game.Players:GetPlayers()) do
			task.wait(.25)
	
			player.PlayerGui.SecretQuotes.Secret1.Enabled = true
			player.PlayerGui.SecretQuotes.Secret1.Last.Frame.Text.Script.Disabled = false
			task.wait(3.75)
			player.PlayerGui.SecretQuotes.Secret1.Enabled = false
			player.PlayerGui.SecretQuotes.Secret1.Last.Frame.Text.Script.Disabled = true

			player.Character.HumanoidRootPart.Position = Hot.Position
		end
	end
end)

just having trouble making it appear for the one person only its a serverscript.

Use a LocalScript. Code inside runs exclusively on the client and due to replication boundary’s any guis you choose to display through them should only appear for them. Please be aware they only run in the following locations however.

maybe try this?

Players = game:GetService("Players")
local Hot = script.Parent.Parent.Parent.Parent.LabEntrance.Plap
local sound = "rbxassetid://8871318721"
script.Parent.Touched:Connect(function(hit)
	if hit.Parent:FindFirstChild("Humanoid") then
		for i, player in pairs(game.Players:GetPlayers()) do
            if player.Name == hit.Parent.Parent.Name then
			task.wait(.25)
	
			player.PlayerGui.SecretQuotes.Secret1.Enabled = true
			player.PlayerGui.SecretQuotes.Secret1.Last.Frame.Text.Script.Disabled = false
			task.wait(3.75)
			player.PlayerGui.SecretQuotes.Secret1.Enabled = false
			player.PlayerGui.SecretQuotes.Secret1.Last.Frame.Text.Script.Disabled = true

			player.Character.HumanoidRootPart.Position = Hot.Position
end
		end
	end
end)

For you to achieve this, you would use Server script. To get player’s GUI, you would GetPlayerFromCharacter() function

and then reference GetPlayerFromCharacter() as a player. Then, you would just Get the player GUI like this player.PlayerGui and then so on. You’re done

Doesn’t seem to work and gives no error

maybe this? Its hard for me to script on text

Players = game:GetService("Players")
local Hot = script.Parent.Parent.Parent.Parent.LabEntrance.Plap
local sound = "rbxassetid://8871318721"
script.Parent.Touched:Connect(function(hit)
	if hit.Parent:FindFirstChild("Humanoid") then
local player= GetPlayerFromCharacter(hit.Parent.Parent)
		if player then
         
			task.wait(.25)
	
			player.PlayerGui.SecretQuotes.Secret1.Enabled = true
			player.PlayerGui.SecretQuotes.Secret1.Last.Frame.Text.Script.Disabled = false
			task.wait(3.75)
			player.PlayerGui.SecretQuotes.Secret1.Enabled = false
			player.PlayerGui.SecretQuotes.Secret1.Last.Frame.Text.Script.Disabled = true

			player.Character.HumanoidRootPart.Position = Hot.Position

		end
	end

local function GetPlayerFromObject(obj)
	for k,v in next, game:GetService("Players"):GetPlayers() do
		if not v.Character then
			continue
		end

		if obj:IsDescendantOf(v.Character) then
			return v
		end
	end
end

local Hot = script.Parent.Parent.Parent.Parent.LabEntrance.Plap
local sound = "rbxassetid://8871318721"
script.Parent.Touched:Connect(function(hit)
	local player = GetPlayerFromObjects(hit) or error("not a player!")
	
	player.PlayerGui.SecretQuotes.Secret1.Enabled = true
	player.PlayerGui.SecretQuotes.Secret1.Last.Frame.Text.Script.Disabled = false
	task.wait(3.75)
	player.PlayerGui.SecretQuotes.Secret1.Enabled = false
	player.PlayerGui.SecretQuotes.Secret1.Last.Frame.Text.Script.Disabled = true

	player.Character.HumanoidRootPart.Position = Hot.Position
end)
