How to display all of the Billboard Gui's and not just one?

Asked by

`1`	`local` `display` `=` `dice.RI.numdisplay` `and` `dice.RII.numdisplay` `and` `dice.WI.numdisplay` `and` `dice.WII.numdisplay` `and` `dice.WIII.numdisplay` `and` `dice.WIV.numdisplay` `and` `dice.WV.numdisplay` `and` `dice.WVI.numdisplay`

Whenever I roll my dice, only dice WVI displays its billboard gui, how do I make them all show their billboard gui?

full script if you want to know:

01local ts = game:GetService("TweenService")
02local p1 = script.Parent.Parent.rollmove.RI
03local p2 = script.Parent.Parent.rollmove.RII
04local box = script.Parent.Parent.rollmove.Box
05local click = script.Parent.ClickDetector
06local dicee = script.Parent.Parent.rollmove.dice:GetChildren()
07local dice = script.Parent.Parent.rollmove.dice
08local dicenum = #dicee
09local display = dice.RI.numdisplay and dice.RII.numdisplay and dice.WI.numdisplay and dice.WII.numdisplay and dice.WIII.numdisplay and dice.WIV.numdisplay and dice.WV.numdisplay and dice.WVI.numdisplay

11for i = 1,dicenum do
12    local diceget = dicee[i]
13    diceget.Anchored = true
14end
15local default_dist = script.Parent.ClickDetector.MaxActivationDistance
16script.Parent.ClickDetector.MouseClick:Connect(function(player)
17    game.ReplicatedStorage.Roll:FireAllClients()
18    script.Parent.ClickDetector.MaxActivationDistance = 0
19    script.Parent.SurfaceGui.Rolling.Visible = true
20    script.Parent.SurfaceGui.Roll.Visible = false
21 
22    wait()
23    local function moveItem(item, wp)
24        local ti = TweenInfo.new(2, Enum.EasingStyle.Linear, Enum.EasingDirection.Out, 0, false, 0)
25        local tween = ts:Create(item, ti, { Position = wp.Position})
26        tween:Play()
27        wait(2)
28    end
29    local function moveItems(item, wp)
30        local ti = TweenInfo.new(0.1, Enum.EasingStyle.Linear, Enum.EasingDirection.Out, 0, false, 0)
31        local tween = ts:Create(item, ti, { Position = wp.Position})
32        tween:Play()
33        wait(0.1)
34    end
35    for i = 1,dicenum do
36        local diceget = dicee[i]
37        moveItems(diceget, p1)
38    end
39    moveItem(box, p1)
40    for i = 1,dicenum do
41        local diceget = dicee[i]
42        diceget.Transparency = 1
43        moveItems(diceget, p2)
44    end
45    moveItem(box, p2)
46    box.Orientation = Vector3.new(0,180,180)
47    for i = 1,dicenum do
48        local diceget = dicee[i]
49        diceget.Transparency = 0
50        diceget.Anchored = false
51    end
52    display.Enabled = true
53    wait(6)
54    for i = 1,dicenum do
55        local diceget = dicee[i]
56        diceget.Anchored = true
57        diceget.Transparency = 1
58        moveItems(diceget, p1)
59        display.Enabled = false
60    end
61    moveItem(box,p1)
62    box.Orientation = Vector3.new(0,0,0)
63    script.Parent.SurfaceGui.Rolling.Visible = false

Well hello again! You could use a for loop to go though each of the guis one by one.

Heres a code you could use!

1for i,dicenum do
2  local diceget = dicee[i]
3  local display = diceget.numdisplay
4  -- do whatever you need to get display on to the billboardgui.
5  wait(3)
6end

you see you assigned multiple values to just 1 variable so it will randomly pick 1 value and just display it!

Hope this helped!

Any questions? Just ask!

Just to add more info: When assigning more values into one variable, this will get the last value of the variable and it won't actually get the rest. I don't know for certain why it does that i'd assume, it get's the last value of x because of the logical operators, since it checks to see if the previous values were true which gets the bool values, then it gets the last value JesseSong 3916 — 3y

It wouldn't randomly choose 1 variable, it would get the last value. It would only pick a random variable if all of the objects were named the exact same thing, cause the script wouldn't know which one to choose. JesseSong 3916 — 3y
