Status Value not showing on gui

Help and Feedback Scripting Support

Sadly i now have the issue of the GUI being stuck in that players needed to start thing

#23

Make it so that after until the GUI disables

until #game.Players:GetPlayers() >= PlayersToStart
     local Children = game.Players:GetChildren()
		for i = 1, #Children do
		Children[i].PlayerGui.ScreenGui.Enabled = false
		end
end
#24

That is my only gui if i disable it nothing is there

#25

So instead of deactivating just set the text to: “” or set the visible to false.

until #game.Players:GetPlayers() >= PlayersToStart
     local Children = game.Players:GetChildren()
		for i = 1, #Children do
		Children[i].PlayerGui.ScreenGui.GameStatus.Text = ""
		end
end
#26

But the thing is that the client and the server share the same GUI. When i changed it on the server the client side doesn’t do anything. The server side just overided the client.

#27

If you want to change it from the client you can use remove event.

#28

i am trying to do server to client and it is saying this for this code

error: Argument 1 missing or nil

Blockquote
Status.Changed:Connect(function()
ChangeText:FireClient()
end)

#29

using :FireClient will require you to define the client : :FireClient(Player) the Player would be the player instance in the Players Service.
using :FireAllClient doesn’t require you to define the client.

Yes, you are going to either have to get the player to pass as the first argument

Status.Changed:Connect(function()
     local current_player = game:GetService("Players"):GetPlayers()[1]
    ChangeText:FireClient(current_player)
end)

Or you can just use FireAllClients() since there’s only one player in the game. Then, in a local script located in StarterPlayerScripts (or possibly a gui element), you are going to want to update the gui, since gui elements should always be (and I think can only be) manipulated on the client side.

Also, I’d look into tying your player count checking code to the Players.PlayerAdded event, as opposed to running a repeat loop.
