My script is supposed to change the text on a textbox but it isn't, help?
local text = game.Workspace.Sign.Sign.SurfaceGui.TextBox.Text
local debounce = true
script.Parent.Touched:Connect(function(hit)
if debounce == true then
debounce = false
print("stepped on")
text = "insert flash text"
wait(2)
text = "insert normal text"
debounce = true
end
end)
This is my code. It's not complicated and I didn't expect to get stuck here, but here I am. The output successfully prints "stepped on"

If you write
local text = game.Workspace.Sign.Sign.SurfaceGui.TextBox.Text
your variable "text" would be equal to your TextBox Text, it will not refer to the TextBox text and in the line 08 you set the variable to "insert flash text" instead of change the object text
you need to put:
local text = game.Workspace.Sign.Sign.SurfaceGui.TextBox --text refers to your object
local debounce = true
script.Parent.Touched:Connect(function(hit)
if debounce == true then
debounce = false
print("stepped on")
text.Text = "insert flash text" --You change the object.Text
wait(2)
text.Text = "insert normal text" --Same here
debounce = true
end
end)
sorry for my english Hope you understand me
