Team Script (Billboard GUI)

[rjizu (パラレン)]

Hello guys, i have made a system where you open a GUI it loads all the players from the player list, whenver u click on them they get an invite button to join your “team”, whenever you accept a random team generates and players that are within that team will get BillboardGUI, however i dont know how to make it so other people wont see theyre overhead gui’s, since i’ve already used PlayerToHideFrom for the player so it wont be annoying that you would see your team tag.

script for enabling and if not in player team then disabling the gui CLIENT

local ReplicatedStorage = game:GetService("ReplicatedStorage")
local BillboardEvent = ReplicatedStorage:WaitForChild("BillboardEvent")
local Players = game:GetService("Players")

-- Handle incoming visibility updates
BillboardEvent.OnClientEvent:Connect(function(action, otherPlayer)
	if action == "ShowBillboard" then
		-- Get the local player and the target player
		local localPlayer = Players.LocalPlayer
		local character = localPlayer.Character
		if character then
			-- Find the BillboardGui
			local billboard = character:FindFirstChild("GroupBillboardGui_" .. otherPlayer.Name)
			if billboard then
				-- Check if the local player and the other player are in the same team
				if localPlayer.Team == otherPlayer.Team then
					-- If in the same team, show the BillboardGui
					billboard.Enabled = true
				else
					-- If not in the same team, hide the BillboardGui
					billboard.Enabled = false
				end
			end
		end
	end
end)

and this script handles the accept button,billboard,teams creation SERVER

local Players = game:GetService("Players")
local ServerStorage = game:GetService("ServerStorage")
local ReplicatedStorage = game:GetService("ReplicatedStorage")
local Teams = game:GetService("Teams")

-- RemoteEvent to handle group requests and responses
local InviteEvent = ReplicatedStorage:WaitForChild("InviteEvent")
local BillboardEvent = ReplicatedStorage:WaitForChild("BillboardEvent")

-- Function to create and attach the BillboardGui
local function AddBillboardToPlayer(player, otherPlayer)
	-- Clone the BillboardGui from ServerStorage
	local billboard = ServerStorage:WaitForChild("PlayerTAG"):Clone()
	billboard.Name = "GroupBillboardGui_" .. otherPlayer.Name
	billboard.Adornee = player.Character:WaitForChild("Head") -- Attach to the player's head
	billboard.Enabled = true
	billboard.Parent = player.Character -- Parent it to the character
	billboard.PlayerToHideFrom = player

	-- Update the text or display
	local textLabel = billboard:FindFirstChild("player_name") -- Adjust this to match your GUI design
	if textLabel then
		textLabel.Text = otherPlayer.Name
	end
end

-- Function to handle accepting a group request and assigning to a random team
local function HandleGroupAcceptance(sender, targetPlayer)
	if not sender.Character or not targetPlayer.Character then return end

	-- Check if sender already has a team, if not create a new one
	local teamName = "Team_" .. sender.UserId  -- Unique team for each player based on their UserId
	local team = Teams:FindFirstChild(teamName)

	-- If the team doesn't exist, create it
	if not team then
		team = Instance.new("Team")
		team.Name = teamName
		team.TeamColor = BrickColor.Random()  -- Assign a random team color
		team.Parent = Teams  -- Add the team to the Teams service
	end

	-- Assign both players to the same team
	sender.Team = team
	targetPlayer.Team = team

	-- Add BillboardGui to both players
	AddBillboardToPlayer(sender, targetPlayer)
	AddBillboardToPlayer(targetPlayer, sender)

	-- Ensure the BillboardGui is only visible to the two players
	BillboardEvent:FireClient(sender, "ShowBillboard", targetPlayer)
	BillboardEvent:FireClient(targetPlayer, "ShowBillboard", sender)
end

-- Listen for invites and acceptances
InviteEvent.OnServerEvent:Connect(function(sender, action, targetPlayerName)
	local targetPlayer = Players:FindFirstChild(targetPlayerName)
	if action == "Accept" and targetPlayer then
		HandleGroupAcceptance(sender, targetPlayer)
	end
end)

Try this new script.

local ReplicatedStorage = game:GetService("ReplicatedStorage")
local BillboardEvent = ReplicatedStorage:WaitForChild("BillboardEvent")
local Players = game:GetService("Players")

BillboardEvent.OnClientEvent:Connect(function(action, otherPlayer)
	local localPlayer = Players.LocalPlayer
	if not localPlayer or not localPlayer.Character then return end

	local billboard = localPlayer.Character:FindFirstChild("GroupBillboardGui_" .. otherPlayer.Name)
	if not billboard then return end

	if action == "ShowBillboard" then
		if localPlayer.Team == otherPlayer.Team then
			billboard.Enabled = true
		else
			billboard.Enabled = false
		end
	elseif action == "HideBillboard" then
		billboard.Enabled = false
	end
end)

[ikDebris (ケイティ)]

local function UpdateBillboardVisibility(player, targetPlayer)
	for _, otherPlayer in pairs(Players:GetPlayers()) do
		if otherPlayer ~= player and otherPlayer ~= targetPlayer then
			if otherPlayer.Team ~= player.Team then
				BillboardEvent:FireClient(otherPlayer, "HideBillboard", targetPlayer)
			end
		end
	end
end

local function HandleGroupAcceptance(sender, targetPlayer)
	if not sender.Character or not targetPlayer.Character then return end

	local teamName = "Team_" .. sender.UserId
	local team = Teams:FindFirstChild(teamName)
	if not team then
		team = Instance.new("Team")
		team.Name = teamName
		team.TeamColor = BrickColor.Random()
		team.Parent = Teams
	end

	sender.Team = team
	targetPlayer.Team = team

	AddBillboardToPlayer(sender, targetPlayer)
	AddBillboardToPlayer(targetPlayer, sender)

	BillboardEvent:FireClient(sender, "ShowBillboard", targetPlayer)
	BillboardEvent:FireClient(targetPlayer, "ShowBillboard", sender)
	UpdateBillboardVisibility(sender, targetPlayer)
	UpdateBillboardVisibility(targetPlayer, sender)
end

Hello sadly still the same happens however now even you can see your own tag, i might be dumb or have done something wrong. Down below ill pin how i imported ur updated script

LocalScript:

local ReplicatedStorage = game:GetService("ReplicatedStorage")
local BillboardEvent = ReplicatedStorage:WaitForChild("BillboardEvent")
local Players = game:GetService("Players")

BillboardEvent.OnClientEvent:Connect(function(action, otherPlayer)
	local localPlayer = Players.LocalPlayer
	if not localPlayer or not localPlayer.Character then return end

	local billboard = localPlayer.Character:FindFirstChild("GroupBillboardGui_" .. otherPlayer.Name)
	if not billboard then return end

	if action == "ShowBillboard" then
		if localPlayer.Team == otherPlayer.Team then
			billboard.Enabled = true
		else
			billboard.Enabled = false
		end
	elseif action == "HideBillboard" then
		billboard.Enabled = false
	end
end)

ServerScript:

local Players = game:GetService("Players")
local ServerStorage = game:GetService("ServerStorage")
local ReplicatedStorage = game:GetService("ReplicatedStorage")
local Teams = game:GetService("Teams")

-- RemoteEvent to handle group requests and responses
local InviteEvent = ReplicatedStorage:WaitForChild("InviteEvent")
local BillboardEvent = ReplicatedStorage:WaitForChild("BillboardEvent")

-- Function to create and attach the BillboardGui
local function AddBillboardToPlayer(player, otherPlayer)
	-- Clone the BillboardGui from ServerStorage
	local billboard = ServerStorage:WaitForChild("PlayerTAG"):Clone()
	billboard.Name = "GroupBillboardGui_" .. otherPlayer.Name
	billboard.Adornee = player.Character:WaitForChild("Head") -- Attach to the player's head
	billboard.Enabled = true
	billboard.Parent = player.Character -- Parent it to the character

	-- Update the text or display
	local textLabel = billboard:FindFirstChild("player_name") -- Adjust this to match your GUI design
	if textLabel then
		textLabel.Text = otherPlayer.Name
	end

	-- Add logic for `PlayerToHideFrom` if supported in your game setup
	billboard.PlayerToHideFrom = nil -- Clear any pre-set value
end

local function UpdateBillboardVisibility(player, targetPlayer)
	for _, otherPlayer in pairs(Players:GetPlayers()) do
		if otherPlayer ~= player and otherPlayer ~= targetPlayer then
			if otherPlayer.Team ~= player.Team then
				BillboardEvent:FireClient(otherPlayer, "HideBillboard", targetPlayer)
			end
		end
	end
end

local function HandleGroupAcceptance(sender, targetPlayer)
	if not sender.Character or not targetPlayer.Character then return end

	local teamName = "Team_" .. sender.UserId
	local team = Teams:FindFirstChild(teamName)
	if not team then
		team = Instance.new("Team")
		team.Name = teamName
		team.TeamColor = BrickColor.Random()
		team.Parent = Teams
	end

	sender.Team = team
	targetPlayer.Team = team

	AddBillboardToPlayer(sender, targetPlayer)
	AddBillboardToPlayer(targetPlayer, sender)

	BillboardEvent:FireClient(sender, "ShowBillboard", targetPlayer)
	BillboardEvent:FireClient(targetPlayer, "ShowBillboard", sender)
	UpdateBillboardVisibility(sender, targetPlayer)
	UpdateBillboardVisibility(targetPlayer, sender)
end

-- Listen for invites and acceptances
InviteEvent.OnServerEvent:Connect(function(sender, action, targetPlayerName)
	local targetPlayer = Players:FindFirstChild(targetPlayerName)
	if action == "Accept" and targetPlayer then
		HandleGroupAcceptance(sender, targetPlayer)
	end
end)

I have attached a new script below, this script basically toggles all other BillboardGui’s for the client, this hides the client player’s BillboardGui.

Example:

StarterPlayerScripts

local player = game:GetService("Players").LocalPlayer
local event = game:GetService("ReplicatedStorage").BillBoardEvent

event.OnClientEvent:Connect(function(action, otherPlayers)
   local setValue = false

  if action == "ShowBillboard" then
      setValue = true
  else
      setValue = false
  end

   for _,v in pairs(game.Players:GetPlayers()) do
      if v.Character then
         if v.Character:FindFirstChild(`GroupBillboardGui_{v.Name}`) then
            v.Character[`GroupBillboardGui_{v.Name}`].Enabled = setValue
         end
      end
   end
end)

For team checking, you can easily add your own functions!
