Clickable Overhead GUI

[vestal river]

I'm working on an Overhead GUI with a clickable image button, when i have it on my rig it functions and is clickable but whenever it is adorneed to the players head it no longer becomes clickable

[stoic mist]

Starter gui is local.

[stoic mist]

It would only work for yourself

[vestal river]

yeah i originally had it in serverscriptstorage but then it was never even clickable

[stoic mist]

That’s why when you put it on your rig (that is in workspace) it works just fine.

[vestal river]

is there a way i can make it clickable from serverscriptstorage?

[stoic mist]

Then only the server would be able to click it

[vestal river]

thats what i want

[stoic mist]

Put it in replicated storage

[vestal river]

wait nvm

ok

let me try that

ok its in replicated now and it no longer shows on rig

but still not clickable for me

[stoic mist]

You have to clone it from replicated storage onto a player in runtime

Replicated storage is stuff you want to replicate

[vestal river]

Here is my current script

local module = {}
local ServerStorage = game:GetService("ReplicatedStorage")
local Players = game:GetService("Players")
local replicatedStorage = game:GetService("ReplicatedStorage")

local OverheadGui = game.ReplicatedStorage:WaitForChild("OverheadGui")

--local OverheadGui = ServerStorage:WaitForChild("OverheadGui")

local GroupId = 32383530

local RoleColors = {

["Owner"] = Color3.fromRGB(93, 0, 255);
["Developer"] = Color3.fromRGB(0, 255, 238);
["Member"] = Color3.fromRGB(251, 255, 0)

}

Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(Player: Player)

Player.CharacterAdded:Connect(function(Character)

    local OverheadGuiClone = OverheadGui:Clone()
    local UsernameLabel = OverheadGuiClone:WaitForChild("Frame").UsernameLabel
    local RoleLabel = OverheadGuiClone:WaitForChild("Frame").RoleLabel

    local GetRoleInGroup = Player:GetRoleInGroup(GroupId)

    if GetRoleInGroup then

        UsernameLabel.Text = (Player.DisplayName) 
        RoleLabel.Text = GetRoleInGroup
        RoleLabel.TextColor3 = RoleColors[GetRoleInGroup]




    else

        UsernameLabel.Text = Player.Name
        RoleLabel.Text = "Noob"
        RoleLabel.TextColor3 = Color3.fromRGB(255, 255, 255)

    end

    OverheadGuiClone.Parent = Character:FindFirstChild("Head")
    OverheadGuiClone.Adornee = Character:FindFirstChild("Head")
end)

end)
return module

i thought i already have cloned it but maybe im being stupid

im new to this so

[stoic mist]

Did it give you an error

[vestal river]

no errors

[stoic mist]

Whenever a player joins clone the ui and parent it to the player

Is this local or server

Script?

[vestal river]

server

** You are now Level 2! **

[vestal river]

is this what u mean?

[stoic mist]

Yes

Ummmm

[stoic mist]

Can you send a screenshot of your script, I can’t read it well like this.

[stoic mist]

Give me your button script

[vestal river]

local button = script.Parent

button.MouseButton1Click:Connect(function()
print("Button clicked!")
end)

[stoic mist]

Oh

Are your buttons clickable or is it only the other players buttons?

[vestal river]

havent done that yet, id want it to bne only other players is clickable

ive tried team testing it and it wont let m e click others aswell

i think it might be an issue of the cloned ones arent clickable

because the original is usually clickable in workspace

[stoic mist]

Parent it to the players root object instead.

Instead of the head

[vestal river]

stiull not clickable

[stoic mist]

Wait, why is this a module?

[vestal river]

server ran module, it has a require in server script service

[stoic mist]

Properties are correct and everything?

Because if not, consider me stumped.

[vestal river]

what properties would i have to look out for

[stoic mist]

Enabled or intractable.

[vestal river]

yup those are on

[stoic mist]

Crap

WAIT

Local scripts don’t work anywhere else but starterscripts or starter gui

Move your button clicked script to your startercharictorscrips

[vestal river]

ok let m,e try

how do i edit the button click script to work with the image button now that it isnt parented?

[stoic mist]

That I’m not sure.

[vestal river]

yeah idk, it makes no sense to me tbh

its clickable while on rigs but not when on a player

[stoic mist]

@trim bison

[trim bison]

why me

[stoic mist]

Cus you’re the only smart one here

[trim bison]

i'm not the only one D:

[stoic mist]

Help him please

[trim bison]

i don't take orders without payment bruh

[vestal river]

its just so weird to me, why does it work on a rig but not players 😭 its attached to the same thing

[trim bison]

im not certain but i'd guess its because the mouse ray goes through the player's character, including anything parented to it. imo just parent to playergui
