URGENT Issue with ResetOnSpawn and Morph GUI

[kanapuro (kanapurottv)]

I have tried about a million workarounds and none of them worked. Please help.
Issue clearly displayed in video

im genuinely tweaking

I’ve read that I shouldn’t be using StarterGUI and should instead be using some other way of turning GUIs on and off but that is just… so beyond me. I can’t find details anywhere! Help!!

The issue is that your hotbar and other gui disappears again when you press play?

When you press play it send a remote to the server and i assume the server respawns you?
If that’s the case because ResetOnRespawn is turned of for the hotbar and other gui it causes those screengui’s to also be reset again.
Turning off ResetOnRespawn for the hotbar and other screenguis should fix that.

I showed what happens both with ResetOnSpawn disabled and enabled. When enabled, the “play” GUI pops back up after morphing to a new character. When disabled, the Hotbar and Customization Menu GUI doesn’t show up at all.

Yes i know, i said disable ResetOnRespawn for the hotbar screengui.

Oh! Oddly enough that has fixed it, thank you so much!

It’s not odd it’s how Roblox works. As stated in the docs of StarterGui.

What happens is the hotbar is not visible by default.
When you press play you make it visible and send a remote event to the server.
The server respawns your character causing everything in PlayerGui to reset.
Which means the hotbar screengui also resets and because it was not visible by default it is again not visible anymore.
Disabling ResetOnRespawn makes sure it is not reset and it stays visible.

I hope that clears things up.
