local TheUi = player:WaitForChild("PlayerGui"):WaitForChild("ScreenStuff")

Can you paste the code in Lua format instead of a screenshot?

This was meant for the creator of the post not you, sorry.

This did not work unfortunately

#7 
local TheUi = script.Parent.Parent.Parent:WaitForChild("ScreenStuff")
#8

Snipping since no longer relevant.

#9

His error is within the Open Handler so if he adds the code below into the Open Handler

local TheUi = script.Parent.Parent.Parent:WaitForChild("ScreenStuff")

it will work.

#10

i put it in the second script

characterlimittttt

I didn’t see that other script until just now, I think the original post was edited.

You should probably add waits on everything, especially when you’re referencing instances from other “ScreenGui” instances.

#13

put a wait after each end) in the this?

local CarSpawnerFrame = script.Parent.Parent.ShopMain
local TheUi = script.Parent.Parent.Parent.ScreenStuff
local Garageicn = script.Parent.Parent.spawn

script.Parent.MouseButton1Click:Connect(function()

CarSpawnerFrame:TweenPosition(UDim2.new(0, 0,0, 0),"Out","Quint",0.5,true)

end)

script.Parent.MouseButton1Click:Connect(function()

TheUi.Enabled = false

end)

script.Parent.MouseButton1Click:Connect(function()

Garageicn.Visible = false

end)
#14

local CarSpawnerFrame = script.Parent.Parent:WaitForChild("ShopMain")

Like this, so it allows the instance to load before attempting to create a variable reference for it.
