When I change the text, it doesn't start?
I have a textbox that when I start out with something other than "Begin1," and then change it to "Begin1," doesn't work. It only works when I press "Test" with the text as "Begin1."
while true do
wait()
if game.StarterGui.Group.TextBox.Text == "Begin1" then
script.Parent.Text = "Right face!"
wait(10)
script.Parent.Text = "Eyes up front!"
wait(10)
script.Parent.Text = "Left face!"
wait(10)
script.Parent.Text = "Eyes up front!"
wait(10)
script.Parent.Text = "About face!"
wait(10)
script.Parent.Text = "Eyes up front!"
wait(10)
end
end

Your error is simple. The problem is you are calling on the TextBoxthat is located in StarterGui, and not the one that is located in your player. The easiest way to fix this, is to just replace StarterGuiwith the PlayerGui
Here is an example:
local name = "" -- Just put your name here!
while wait() do
local plr = game.Players:FindFirstChild(name)
if plr ~= nil then --This just makes sure the player is actually in the game
local p_gui = plr.PlayerGui -- PlayerGui is the gui for each individual player in the game
if p_gui ~= nil then
if p_gui.Group.TextBox.Text == "Begin1" then
script.Parent.Text = "Right face!"
wait(10)
script.Parent.Text = "Eyes up front!"
wait(10)
script.Parent.Text = "Left face!"
wait(10)
script.Parent.Text = "Eyes up front!"
wait(10)
script.Parent.Text = "About face!"
wait(10)
script.Parent.Text = "Eyes up front!"
wait(10)
end
end
end
end
I hope this helped!
