How to fix this fading text module?

Howdy!
You're rapidly increasing the transparency. Remember that a transparency of one is completely gone. Also, you've got a weird way of adding the transparency. Try what I have below.
local module = {}
function module.TextFade(plr)
local CurrentTransparancy = 0
local PlrUI = game.Players.LocalPlayer.PlayerGui.PlrUI
while true do
PlrUI.Title.Transparancy = PlrUI.Title.Transparancy + 0.1
repeat until PlrUT.Title.Transparancy = 1
end
end
return module

Finding The Errors
local module = {}
function module.TextFade(plr)
local CurrentTransparancy = 0
local PlrUI = game.Players.LocalPlayer.PlayerGui.PlrUI --// Error #1
for i = 1,100,.1 --// Error #2
do
CurrentTransparancy = CurrentTransparancy + 1 --// Error #3
PlrUI.Title.Transparancy = CurrentTransparancy --// Error #3
end
end
return module
Error #1 - You already have plr passed through as an argument, and you cannot access LocalPlayer through a ModuleScript.
Error #2 - You are already making it invisible as it's starting at Transparency 1, and going to 100, by 0.1. You have to start it at 0 to make it visible, and the transparency only goes to 1, anything after that is the same as having it at 1.
Error #3 - You are increasing the transparency by 1, instead of using the variable i
Fixed Script
local fadeModule = {}
function module.FadeText(player)
local playerGui = player:WaitForChild("PlayerGui")
local UI = playerGui:WaitForChild("PlrUI")
local title = UI:WaitForChild("Title")
for i = 0,1,0.1 do
title.Transparency = i
game:GetService("RunService").Stepped:Wait() --// This will make it run smoother, better than using wait()
end
end
return fadeModule

20:22:33.487 - ServerScriptService.Script.TextsModule:4: attempt to index nil with 'PlayerGui'
What is the name of the GUI you're trying to refer to? The error says that "PlrUI" doesn't exist, make sure the name is right.
Its not the GUI its refering to its says playergui
You need to use :WaitForChild("PlayerGui", 1), since the script is executing before the StarterGui is placed in the PlayerGui.
I read it wrong. I would try to use :WaitForChild() to get the PlayerGui because I think it's searching too early for it to appear.
