I want to make a system, inwhich you touch a part, and a GUI appears. (The part has no transparency, and has collisions off) and when you exit the part, the gui will disappear.
function appear()
print("hi")
end
function disappear()
print("bye")
end
game.Workspace.Features.Zones.zone_Airport.Touched:Connect(appear)
game.Workspace.Features.Zones.zone_Airport.TouchEnded:Connect(disappear)
(Obviously I haven't set the GUI up yet)
Any help would be appreciated.
Server script:
local touched = game.ReplicatedStorage.TouchedEvent -- make a REMOTE function in replicated storage, if you use a different name change it here
local touchended = game.ReplicatedStorage.TouchEndedEvent -- same as above
function appear(hit)
if game.Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(hit.Parent) then -- if its a player
local plr = game.Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(hit.Parent) -- get player
touched:InvokeClient(plr) -- invoke function
end
end
function disappear(hit)
if game.Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(hit.Parent) then -- if its a player
local plr = game.Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(hit.Parent) -- get player
touchended:InvokeClient(plr) -- invoke function
end
end
game.Workspace.Features.Zones.zone_Airport.Touched:Connect(appear)
game.Workspace.Features.Zones.zone_Airport.TouchEnded:Connect(disappear)
Local script:
local pgui = game.Players.LocalPlayer:WaitForChild("PlayerGui")
local sgui = pgui:WaitForChild("ScreenGui") -- name of your screen gui
local fgui = sgui:WaitForChild("Frame") -- name of the frame to appear
local rep = game.ReplicatedStorage
rep:WaitForChild("TouchedEvent").OnClientInvoke = function() -- touched event
fgui.Visible = true -- make visible
end
rep:WaitForChild("TouchEndedEvent").OnClientInvoke = function() -- touchended event
fgui.Visible = false -- make invisible
end
I get the error "OnClientInvoke is not a valid member of BindableFunction "ReplicatedStorage.TouchedEvent" "
It also spams both functions while I'm on the part.
oops i meant remote function
Hey, the script works, but while I'm moving through the part, as it has collisions off, the GUI keeps appearing and disappearing.
maybe add an if check to see if the part touching it is a root part because your character animation might cause several collision enters and exits

What is the output showing?
I think if the part has cancollide off, touches events wont fire. What you probably want is Region3. Region3 can be used to detect if a player is writhin a certain area. I wont show any example scripts but you can search youtube for tutorials on this
cannot collide parts still fire touched events for me
@testing34545 Cannot collide parts will fire touch events, but its much more clean to use region3. In this case you want to keep as much as possible in the script.
@Benbebop for one of my games a have the destroying barrier with cancollife off so are you saying i should check for parts in a region 3 every heartbeat?
