So i tried making a Lever that when i click on the Hitbox (ClickDetector) that it will make 1 part transparent and the other one not so it looks like the lever is pulled.

I tired making a scirpt altough is suck at scripting.

i made this.

function 
game.Workspace.SwitchTrack1.HandlePart1.Transparency = 1
    else
game.Workspace.SwitchTrack2.HandlePart1.Transparency = 0

end
script.Parent.Show.Click.MouseClick:connect(act)

Anyone can help me with my script? Would be very appericiated.

Would you like it to show up for only the client or the whole server when someone presses the lever? LeedleLeeRocket 1257 — 3y

So your problem is that you don't have a function for this script, it doesn't know what to do. So here's a fixed script for you.

function(act)
print("Lever was pulled.")
game.Workspace.SwitchTrack1.HandlePart1.Transparency = 1
game.Workspace.SwitchTrack2.HandlePart1.Transparency = 0
end
script.Parent.Show.Click.MouseClick:Connect(act)

Learn proper Lua before you even try scripting. A lot of your syntax is already wrong. Namely the if control sequence and how you declare a function.

Here's their official guide. https://www.lua.org/pil/contents.html

Here's the fixed script if you want.

local function LeverClicked()
    workspace.SwitchTrack1.HandlePart1.Transparency = 1 --make the first lever part invisible.
    workspace.SwitchTrack2.HandlePart1.Transparency = 0 --make the first lever part visible again.
end

script.Parent.Show.Click.MouseClick:connect(LeverClicked)

And in anonymous functions if you want.

script.Parent.Show.Click.MouseClick:connect(function ()
    workspace.SwitchTrack1.HandlePart1.Transparency = 1 --make the first lever part invisible.
    workspace.SwitchTrack2.HandlePart1.Transparency = 0 --make the first lever part visible again.
end)
