TextLabel not showing up?

Asked by

I made a script to show a GUI changing texts giving people, who click the "Play"button, information. It used to work before, now it won't. After I changed one of the texts, it broke.

All the GUIs start off Visible.

view source
01mouse = game.Players.LocalPlayer:GetMouse()
02txt = script.Parent.TextLabel
03script.Parent.MouseButton1Click:connect(function()
04    game.Players.LocalPlayer.CameraMaxZoomDistance = 0.5
05    script.Parent.Visible = false
06    txt.Text = "Okay, " ..game.Players.LocalPlayer.Name.. "."
07    wait(5)
08    txt.Text = "Your task is simple."
09    wait(5)
10    script.Parent.Sound:Play()
11    txt.Text = "Run from him."
12    wait(3)
13    txt.BackgroundTransparency = 0.1
14    txt.TextTransparency = 0.1
15    wait(0.0000000001)

There is nothing in the output. Could somebody help me out with this?

To clarify Perci1's answer, on line 5 you set the Frame's Visible property to false, so any children of the frame will be completely hidden. After that you are changing the Transparency properties of a TextLabel inside the Frame, but of course you're never going to see the changes because the Frame has to be Visible in order to see the TextLabel.
