How do I check if a part is missing?
Trying to make a GUI detect if a certain brick is missing but I have no idea on how do I make a script check if a certain brick is not there.
Example:
if -- command that checks if it is not there with a certain name then script.Parent.Frame.Visible = false
New to vehicle /gun scripting.

Use the FindFirstChildmethod to return the object if it exists.
if not workspace.Model:FindFirstChild("PartName") then
script.Parent.Frame.Visible = false
end

Make a variable using FindFirstChild.
For example:
Part = Part'sParent:FindFirstChild("PartName")
Then, do an if/then statement, to see if it exists:
if Part == nil then script.Parent.Frame.Visible = false
Add them all together, and you get this:
Part = Part'sParent:FindFirstChild("PartNameHere")
if Part == nil then
script.Parent.Frame.Visible = false
NOTE: Replace (Part'sParent) with the location of the part's parent, and replace "PartNameHere with the name of the part you want to check that exists or not
Please accept my answer if this helped!

The script works but the problem is that it doesnt turn visible/invisible while im still on the seat and only works when I re-sit. VeteranHawk 5 — 9y

You need to write something like this:
local PlayerGui = game.Players.LocalPlayer:WaitForChild('PlayerGui')
local Thing = game.Workspace:FindFirstChild('[ Part Name ]')
if Thing == nil then
PlayerGui.[ Gui ].Frame.Visible = false
end
Just like that.
