Help me with this Gui? (SOLVED)
?Hello, I need some help on this gui script. Whenever someone clicks the gui or hits the key "N" the text will change to something else. Here's the script
local screenGui = Instance.new("ScreenGui")
screenGui.Parent = script.Parent
local textButton = Instance.new("TextButton")
textButton.Parent = screenGui
textButton.Position = UDim2.new(0, 25, 0, 50)
textButton.Size = UDim2.new (0, 150, 0, 50)
textButton.BackgroundColor3 = BrickColor.Black().Color
textButton.Text = "Hello there, please press n or click me!"
textButton.TextColor3 = BrickColor.Red().Color
textButton.TextScaled = true
textButton.Font = "Legacy"
textButton.FontSize = "Size24"
textButton.MouseButton1Down:connect(function()
if key:lower() == "N" then
textButton.Text = "Thank you for opening me! This is the game instructions! Continue reading!"
textButton.MouseButton1Down:connect(function()
if key:lower() == "N" then
textButton.Text = "This is a sword fight game! Each kill awards you 20 player points!(Continue)"
if textButton.MouseButton1Down:connect(function()
if key:lower() == "N" then
textButton.Text = "Everyone gets the same sword for equality! If they do more damage, there hacking!(Continue)"
if textButton.MouseButton1Down:connect(function()
if key:lower() == "N" then
textButton.Text = "If you see any hacking, please report it to the creator, SirTwoFace and he'll get right to you!(Continue)"
if textButton.MouseButton1Down:connect(function()
if key:lower() == "N" then
textButton.Text = "Now go out there and blox some people!(Continue)"
if textButton.MouseButton1Down:connect(function()
if key:lower() == "N" then
script.Parent.Parent.Remove()
end
end)
then end
end
end
end)
end
end)
end)
end)
end)
I always get the errors at the ends. I add the ) but then another one says error for saying "Expecting ")" near "end"" when it's already there. Can you help me??

You're going about this all wrong.
key is not defined; it's a nil value.
MouseButton1Down will fire every time a player clicks a GUI, not when they press a key on their keyboard.
Checking multiple times if the key is 'N' is useless. What would end up happening is all those if statements would return true extremely quickly with just a single press of N. You would not have to press N more than once to rotate through those messages.
You need to use the a table to change the text, and the KeyDown event to check if a player presses 'N'.
local messages = {"","","","","","","","",""} --Change to your messages, of course.
local currentMessage = 0
local maxMessage = #messages
local mouse = game.Players.LocalPlayer:GetMouse()
mouse.KeyDown:connect(function(key)
if key:lower() ~= "n" then return end --Stop everything if the key is not 'n'.
currentMessage = currentMessage + 1
if currentMessage > maxMessage then
currentMessage = 0
textbutton.Text = ""
else
textbutton.Text = messages[currentMessage]
end
end)
This method also makes a text button not necessary. Use a text label instead.
