TextButton on SurfaceGUI detects clicks on specific spots

Help and Feedback Scripting Support
1

I made a block that contains a TextButton, but for some reason the textbutton only detects clicks on specific spots, like the right side of the text or the very edge of the button. I tried replacing the textbutton with a textlabel and inserted a clickdetector instead, but the textlabel blocks the clickdetector. I also tried turning on AlwaysOnTop, it worked but I just dont want the buttons to be visible when im inside a building. Can someone help?

Code:

local cService = game:GetService("CollectionService")
local gasPumps = cService:GetTagged("gasPump")
local buttonDictionary = require(game.ReplicatedStorage.ModuleScripts.ButtonDict)
-- Browses through every pump tagged with "gasPump"
for _, pump in pairs(gasPumps) do
	-- Creates a folder for the pump.
	local folder = Instance.new("Folder")
	folder.Name = pump.Name
	folder.Parent = script.Parent.Instances
	
	-- Creates a folder inside the PumpFolder for the buttons.
	local bFolder = Instance.new("Folder")
	bFolder.Name = "ButtonGUIS"
	bFolder.Parent = folder
	
	-- Browses through every object inside this script and clones it.
	for _, obj in ipairs(script:GetChildren()) do
		if obj:IsA("SurfaceGui") then
			local screenCopy = obj:Clone()
			screenCopy.Parent = folder
			-- Puts the cloned SurfaceGUI into the screen of the tagged pump.
			screenCopy.Adornee = pump:WaitForChild("Screen",true)
			
			-- Places the Screen to its corresponding face position.
			if screenCopy.Name:find("A") then
				screenCopy.Face = "Front"
			elseif screenCopy.Name:find("B") then
				screenCopy.Face = "Back"
			end
			
			-- Enables the Background and Screen.
			if screenCopy.Name:find("Background") or screenCopy.Name:find("Screen") then
				screenCopy.Enabled = true
			end
			
			-- The object is a folder
		elseif obj:IsA("Folder") then
			-- Clones the folder
			local guifolderCopy = obj:Clone()
			guifolderCopy.Parent = folder
			
			for _, gui in pairs(guifolderCopy:GetChildren()) do
				gui.Adornee = pump:WaitForChild("Screen",true)
			end
		end
	end
	
	-- Loops through the Buttons.
	for _, obj in pairs(pump:WaitForChild("Screen"):GetChildren()) do
		-- Makes sure that we are ACTUALLY looping through the buttons folder.
		if obj:IsA("Folder") then
		    -- i know you know this you dont need any commentary
			local Sfolder = Instance.new("Folder")
			Sfolder.Name = string.lower(obj.Name).."Folder"
			Sfolder.Parent = bFolder
			
			for _, button in ipairs(obj:GetChildren()) do
					local numberEq = buttonDictionary[button.Name]
					local surfaceGUI = Instance.new("SurfaceGui")
					surfaceGUI.Parent =  Sfolder
					surfaceGUI.Enabled = true
					surfaceGUI.Name = button.Name
					
					local textButton = Instance.new("TextButton")
					textButton.Text = numberEq
					textButton.Parent = surfaceGUI
					textButton.BackgroundTransparency = 1
					textButton.Size = UDim2.new(1,0,1,0)
					textButton.TextScaled = true
					textButton.TextColor3 = Color3.fromRGB(255, 255, 255)
					textButton.FontFace = Font.new("rbxasset://fonts/families/Zekton.json")
					textButton.Visible = true
				
					
					surfaceGUI.Adornee = button
					surfaceGUI.Face = "Front"
				surfaceGUI.CanvasSize = Vector2.new(100,100)
				textButton.Active = true
				
				-- test thing something 
				textButton.Activated:Connect(function()
					print("Testtjuygfyueakfeuif")
				end)
			end
		end
	end
end
