Hello, i’m trying to make custom GUI while teleporting to other place and i set local telgui as correct path using script.parent… however roblox keeps saying it’s wrong path (ignoring fact it’s correct path!) 2 devs from game tryed to set path again and it kept saying it’s wrong path. We tryed to set path from play mode from player… didn’t work!
CODE:
local telgui = script.Parent.Parent.Parent.Connecting
White: Script
Red: GUI I’m trying to get using script.parent…
Try getting the path with:
game.Players.LocalPlayer.PlayerGui.["restofpath"].Connecting
Very odd. Maybe you’re typing something wrong. I’ve never experienced this problem
As i said everything in there is correct (few people tryed it)
Is the picture of the starterpack? It’s zoomed in a bit too much.
StarterGUI However tryed in play mode and using that auto fill it says everything is okay (even suggests it when i type Cone…)
Did you try calling the path from LocalPlayer.PlayerGui?
Use WaitForChild("Connecting"), so:
local telgui = script.Parent.Parent.Parent:WaitForChild("Connecting")
The reason you use WaitForChild is that sometimes, using a local script to define anything that is not an ancestor of the local script, isn’t loaded in yet, so it will return nil, and therefore wouldn’t work.
Tryed, even autosuggests it (30 chars)
Weird, try print(script.Parent.Parent.Parent.Connecting.Name)
You probably didn’t do this, but to make sure every possibility is looked at: do you change telgui at any other point? Or use the wrong spelling when using telgui? Could we see the full script?
Works! But it’s really odd it haves correct path
