Remote not doing what I want it to?

Help and Feedback Scripting Support
#1

Hey, I’m currently working on something I’m making for fun. But now I got stuck, and I don’t know why? I’m sorry if my brain isn’t working right now, and it is an easy fix.

I have a script that fires a remote that then should enable a GUI for the player. But for some reason, it doesn’t enable the GUI for the player.

LocalScript in StarterPlayerScripts

game.Players.PlayerAdded:Wait()

local plotGui = game.Players.LocalPlayer.PlayerGui.PlotGui
local player = game.Players.LocalPlayer

game:GetService("ReplicatedStorage").Events.PlotGui.OnClientEvent:Connect(function(plotOwner)
	if plotOwner == player.DisplayName then
		if plotGui.Enabled == false then
			plotGui.Enabled = true
		end
	end
end)

You’re waiting for the player to be added, but local scripts only run once the player is added. Remove that line and it should work.
