Text GUI not functioning correctly

Superr_Z · December 10, 2020, 5:38pm

I’ve never actually tried scripting GUIs before so I tried giving it a shot.

I wrote a simple line of code but for some reason it wont change the text GUI
Here it is:

wait(1)
game.StarterGui.GUI.Frame.TextTest.Text = "Hi"

There are no errors showing so I think I am missing something but idk what.
If you know what’s please tell me, I am looking on Roblox’s API manual to see if I can find out what happened.

Instead of game.StarterGui,

Use player.PlayerGui

its

wait (1)

script.Parent.Text = “Hi”

Doesn’t seem to be working for some reason

The script isn’t located in the “TextTest”

Make sure its “PlayerGui”, not “PlayerGUI”
