I've made this quest system and a gui brick which shows a gui for the set amount of time. I want the gui to only appear when you touch the gui brick only when the quest has been completed. I've been suggested to change the bool value and set the script to understand it by true or false but I don't want to alter the already made script.
Quest Completion Marker(for reference of how the mission becomes assigned complete):
script.Parent.Touched:connect(function(touchedpart)
local player = game.Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(touchedpart.Parent)
if player then
if player:FindFirstChild("Quest6") and player:FindFirstChild("Quest6").Value == "-[Get a Water Tank]" then
player.Quest6.Value = "-[Completed]"
game.Workspace.Data[player.Name].Socks.Value = game.Workspace.Data[player.Name].Socks.Value + 1
end
end
end)
GUI Projector:
local debounce = false
function getPlayer(humanoid)
local players = game.Players:children()
for i = 1, #players do
if players[i].Character.Humanoid == humanoid then return players[i] end
end
return nil
end
function onTouch(part)
local human = part.Parent:findFirstChild("Humanoid")
if (human ~= nil) and debounce == false then
debounce = true
local player = getPlayer(human)
if (player == nil) then return end
script.Parent:clone().Parent = player.PlayerGui
wait(17)
debounce = false
player.PlayerGui.OnTouchGui:remove()
wait()
debounce = false
wait(17)
end
end
script.Parent.Parent.Touched:connect(onTouch)

for your function put local connection = then your code. then after have connection:Disconnect() and it will disconnect the connection
Not sure what you mean
I'll help you understand. You know to make an event work, you need to use :Connect. Now, if you don't want to not make a certain piece of code activate by an event, you use the connection(you can store this in a local variable) and use :Disconnect()
For example, local brick = script.Parent local function onTouched(hit) -- code here end brick.Touched:Connect(onTouched) local connection = brick.Touched:Connect(onTouched) connection:Disconnect Here is the wiki page about it http://wiki.roblox.com/index.php?title=RBXScriptConnection#Disconnect
I got it but how would I link it to the quest system?
what do you mean?
The GUI Projector?
If you are referring to that, you would do local connection = script.Parent.Parent.Touched:Conncet(onTouch) connection:Disconnect()
You could use _G or modules to use certain things in different scripts without rewriting them
Both scripts are separate so how would I link them together so the projector would check if the quest was completed
