Why does my Gui Reset to it's original state

Okay so I have a Time GUI that when the player dies it resets for some reason I want it to carry on and be the same for everyone. I have no clue why this happens. Is there just a property that rests it?

Oh, that’s probably because the GUI is reseting on respawn. I guess you can just set to false the “ResetOnSpawn” GUI property.

Ok thanks again but its now duplicating its self. :rofl:

Here’s the script:

script.Parent.Parent.Parent.ResetOnSpawn = false
while true do
	Time = 119
	for count = 0, 119, 1 do
		wait(1)
		Time = Time - 1
		RoundType = "Match"
		script.Parent.Text = "Match Time: "..Time
	end
	Time = 14
	for count = 0, 14, 1 do
		wait(1)
		RoundType = "Intermission"
		Time = Time - 1
		script.Parent.Text = "Intermission: "..Time
	end
end

What I recommend you do:

  • Create two values in server: one that stores the round type and another that stores the time.
  • In the server, update as you’re doing there.
  • Just getting via LocalScript the values and printing this information in the screen.

Lets see if that works

Okay if tried that but it doesn’t work. I’ve even tried moving it in the script and it doesn’t work.

I recommended that because you’re doing this on LocalScript I guess, so for each person, the timer will be different. If you control these values in server and just get and print these informations on player’s screen, for all players it’ll show de same thing.

do not use the built in gui, i repeat, do not use the built in gui. it is not only inefficient but it is prone to many issues and is also not easily customizable.

right, make the GUI with WPF instead, should I also avoid LuaU while I’m at it
