I can't manage to get any descendant of someone's PlayerGui with FE. And I need it to save their inventory. Is there anyway around this?

For some reason, FE doesn't allow the server to access clients' PlayerGui. I honestly think it's extremely stupid, as there is no reason to keep the PlayerGui from the server.

@128gb already did that. Used a remote function. I tried to return one whole screen gui, and it keeps giving me "nil", even when there's waits.

Thats because the gui does not exist to the server
Return the values you need not the objects

Its not that the server is not allowed to access that gui its that it DOES NOT EXIST to the server

To the server the memory that refers to the gui is nil

Its kinda like this
(Example using functions and local variables because it was an easy way to show it in my mind)

local function client()
local gui = Instance.new("ScreenGui", workspace)
print(gui)
end

local function server()
print(gui)
end

client() -->ScreenGui
server() -->nil, because 'gui' did not exist to the 'server'
