This is just a script in a gui and Idk how to make it a better way.
01 | script.Parent.Parent.Car1.Visible = false |
02 | script.Parent.Parent.Car2.Visible = false |
03 | script.Parent.Parent.Car3.Visible = false |
04 | script.Parent.Parent.Car4.Visible = false |
05 | script.Parent.Parent.Car5.Visible = false |
06 | script.Parent.Parent.Car6.Visible = false |
07 | script.Parent.Parent.Car7.Visible = false |

The wonderful world of for loops, where anything is possible!
1 | for i = 1, 10 do |
2 | script.Parent.Parent["Car" .. i].Visible = false |
3 | end |
This type of for loop will start at 1 and increase to 10, storing the value in i. There are also generic for loops (for a, b, c, ... in func, val1, val2, val3, ... do), but they need a little more explaining (and are not what you need at the moment).

I'm not realy sure if there are ONLY Items named Car with a number, so here are two scripts depending on that.
If there are items named other than Car<number>
1 | validnames = {"Car1", "Car2","Car3", "Car4", "Car5", "Car6", "Car7", "Car8", "Car9", "Car10"} |
2 |
3 | for i,v in ipairs(script.Parent.Parent:GetChildren()) do |
4 | if validnames[v.Name] then |
5 | v.Visible = false |
6 | end |
7 | end |
If there are ONLY items named Car<number>
1 | for i,v in ipairs(script.Parent.Parent:GetChildren()) do |
2 | v.Visible = false |
3 | end |
