Why won't my textlabel's text change or disappear?
I am trying to make a script where Text will appear when you hit a winpad after an obby saying +10 points!, but For whatever reason it seems to not work. Is there a setting that could be on the text that makes it so it cannot change? The signals for "working" and "done" also work.
Here is what my StarterGui Folder looks like Here
01 | db = false |
02 | script.Parent.Touched:connect(function(hit) |
03 | if hit.Parent:FindFirstChild("Humanoid") then |
04 | local add = game.StarterGui.Add.Points |
05 | if db == false then |
06 | print("working") |
07 | db = true |
08 | add.Text = "+10 points" |
09 | add.TextTransparency = 0 |
10 | wait(3) |
11 | add.TextTransparency = 1 |
12 | add.Text = "+0 points" |
13 | db = false |
14 | print("done") |
15 | end |
16 | end |
17 | end) |

StarterGui is named startergui for a reason. its the gui you get when you just join the game. So do this:
01 | db = false |
02 | script.Parent.Touched:connect(function(hit) |
03 | if hit.Parent:FindFirstChild("Humanoid") then |
04 | local add = game.Players[hit.Parent.Name].PlayerGui.Add.Points |
05 | if db == false then |
06 | print("working") |
07 | db = true |
08 | add.Text = "+10 points" |
09 | add.TextTransparency = 0 |
10 | wait(3) |
11 | add.TextTransparency = 1 |
12 | add.Text = "+0 points" |
13 | db = false |
14 | print("done") |
15 | end |
16 | end |
17 | end) |
And yes this will work. DuckyRoblox's script was much longer and chunkier so use this.
For this I would use local script 100% so first heres your script so we would need to define player cause startergui doesnt control anything in live game so we gotta define PlayerGui
01 | db = false--debounce |
02 | script.Parent.Touched:connect(function(hit)--Function of touched |
03 | local player = game.Players.LocalPlayer--Get player Locally |
04 | local plrgui = player:WaitForChild("PlayerGui")--Gets playergui |
05 | if hit.Parent:FindFirstChild("Humanoid") then --Checks if humanoid touched |
06 | local add = plrgui.Add.Points-- defines gui for player |
07 | if db == false then--If db = false then do |
08 | print("working")--Prints working |
09 | db = true--debounce = true |
10 | add.Visible = true--Makes text visible just incase it wasn't visible |
11 | add.Text = "+10 points" --Makes text that |
12 | add.TextTransparency = 0--makes transparency 1 Visible |
13 | wait(3)--debounces wait time |
14 | add.TextTransparency = 1--Makes transparency 0 Invisible |
15 | add.Text = "+0 points"--Makes text that |
16 | db = false --Makes db = false |
17 | print("done") --Prints done |
18 | end--ends debounce |
19 | end--Ends hit statement |
20 | end) --Ends Function |
Ok so basically I explained most of it and the problem accept if helps
