--Variables
local SideBar = script.Parent:WaitForChild("SideBar")
local PlayBtn = SideBar:WaitForChild("Play")
local CreditsBtn = SideBar:WaitForChild("Credits")
local Title = SideBar:WaitForChild("Title")

Tween:Create(
    SideBar,
    TweenInfo.new(0.4,Enum.EasingStyle.Quad,Enum.EasingDirection.Out,0,false,0)

Are you sure that's what the error is? There is an issue with this but it would be saying a different error. There is not a comma between the TweenInfo argument and the table with the tween goals, which I assume is a typo.

Tween:Create(
    SideBar,
    TweenInfo.new(0.4,Enum.EasingStyle.Quad,Enum.EasingDirection.Out,0,false,0),
    {Position = UDim2.new(0,0,0,0)}
):Play()

However, to answer your question about "attempt to call x value", it means that you tried to use something that is not a function, like a function. So to get this error with a TweenInfo object, you would do this:

TweenInfo.new(0.4,Enum.EasingStyle.Quad,Enum.EasingDirection.Out,0,false,0)() -- this looks weird but notice the two parentheses at the end, similar to how you would call a function like "myFunction()"

or

local tweenInfo = TweenInfo.new(0.4,Enum.EasingStyle.Quad,Enum.EasingDirection.Out,0,false,0),

tweenInfo()

yeah i directly copied and pasted that error also, ur saying it should be TweenInfo.new,(--blah blah blah--) right? (just making sure) TypicalVictorlks 17 — 3y

no, it would be formatted like (target, TweenInfo.new(whatever), { goals })  OfficerBrah 494 — 3y

no, I was including that as an example of what not to do as a demonstration of what will cause the "attempt to call x" error. If you want to define the TweenInfo as a variable, define it outside of the Tween:Create function, and then put the name of the variable without the () into Tween:Create. Or in your original script, add the comma right before the {table} and I think it will work OfficerBrah 494 — 3y
