Localscript for Gui not working, and no errors in output?

Asked 210 views1 answers

Hi, this is the script:

local MGui = script.Parent.Parent.Parent
local Frame = MGui.Frame
local Atlass = Frame.Atlass
local Slider = script.Parent
Slider.MouseButton1Click:connect(function()
	if Frame.Position == UDim2.new({0, 4},{0, 150}) then
		Frame.Position = UDim2.new({0, -200},{0, 150})
	elseif Frame.Position == UDim2.new({0, -200},{0, 150}) then
	Frame.Position = UDim2.new({0, 4},{0, 150})
	end
end)

when it's clicked it should check if it's Position is {0, 4},{0, 150} and if it is then it should change it to {0, -200},{0, 150} or if it's the other way around then the opposite should happen however, It won't work. and I don't know why, This is the first time I've Used UDim2 and I don't know much about it. Thanks for your help.

When using UDim2.new() in ROBLOX Lua, you do not put {} inside the parentheses.

Correct: UDim2.new(XScale, XOffset, YScale, YOffset)

Incorrect: UDim2.new({XScale, XOffset}, {YScale, YOffset})

Bearing that in mind, let's look at your script.

Fixed Code:

local MGui = script.Parent.Parent.Parent
local Frame = MGui.Frame
local Atlass = Frame.Atlass
local Slider = script.Parent
Slider.MouseButton1Click:connect(function()
    if Frame.Position == UDim2.new(0, 4,0, 150) then --None of the {}'s.
        Frame.Position = UDim2.new(0, -200,0, 150) --None of the {}'s.
    elseif Frame.Position == UDim2.new(0, -200,0, 150) then --None of the {}'s.
    Frame.Position = UDim2.new(0, 4,0, 150) --None of the {}'s.
    end
end)
