How do you make it so when you touch an item, it displays a message?
````I've tried my old scripting but it doesn't work, I think they updated the coding in Roblox.~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
local msgText = "You need a key to continue."
script.Parent.Touched:connect(function(hit)
local findhum = hit.Parent:FindFirstChild("Humanoid")
if findhum then
local player = game.Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(hit.Parent)
local findm = player.PlayerGui:findFirstChild("msg")
if not findm then
local msg = Instance.new("Message", player.PlayerGui)
msg.Text = msgText
msg.Name = "msg"
wait(5)
msg:remove()
end
end
end)

It works, the message will display. You just forgot the part at the bottom. This might fix it!
local msgText = "You need a key to continue."
script.Parent.Touched:connect(function(hit)
local findhum = hit.Parent:FindFirstChild("Humanoid")
if findhum then
local player = game.Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(hit.Parent)
local findm = player.PlayerGui:findFirstChild("msg")
if not findm then
local msg = Instance.new("Message", player.PlayerGui)
msg.Text = msgText
msg.Name = "msg"
wait(5)
msg:remove()
end
end
end
script.Parent.Touched:connect(onTouch)
Let me know if it doesn't work.

It still doesn't work. Maybe it's because the script doesn't state the item you touch? vlogdtp 0 — 6y

Your problem is most likely this
player.PlayerGui:findFirstChild("msg")
Find must be capitalized for this to work. If it doesn't then post the error you are getting in the output.
