Make GUI appear on touch of a brick? CHECK NEWER ONE!

I want a GUI to appear at the top of the screen when you touch the brick. However I would like it so when you touch a brick (This script is meant to go in the part you're touching) a GUI that is currently in the Starter GUI appears Like this: (So it starts with a transparency of 1, invisible) And it stays there until you are no longer touching that part, in which it fades out. Please tell me what the properties of the text should be too

If you have a more efficent method tell me! Please annotate everything as I am a beginner scripter. I also realize this is not the place to ask for scripts.

Ok, first of all for the transparency you can use the for loop which WOULD look like THIS in YOUR case c;

non generic for pairs need 2 arguments and the 3rd is optional.

A) Beginning number for loop

B) End number of loop

C) "Optional" how much it will add to i by every loop

In your case you do need c because otherwise it will be 1 by default.

oh and you need to DEFINE the LOCATION but I'll show you that soon.

for i  = 0, 1, .25 do
	GUI.Transparency = 1 - i
	wait(.25)
end

Then you would need it to wait 4 seconds in your case and reverse it

wait(4)
for i = 0, 1, .25 do
	GUI.Transparency = i --i changed it here to add not subtract like in the last one
	wait(.25)
end

We will do the wait 60 of this afterwards.

Now you need the function of when this is touched

function SetTransGUI(part)
end

the part parameter because when you touch a brick a parameter is passed in called "part" meaning the part that touched it.

Oh and this is phenomenon in which the ontouch is activated ALOT so you need to add a varaible that wont allow it to run again WHILE its running

local debounce = true
function SetTransGUI(part)
	if debounce then
		debounce = false
		--now the code wont run while its running do it doesnt repeat itself
		--stuff goes HERE
	end
end

Now heres the part when we acces the players GUI now we will need to verify first if the touched part is a PLAYER

local debounce = true
function SetTransGUI(part)
	if debounce then
		local human = part.Parent:findFirstChild("Humanoid")
		if human then
			debounce = false --we dont want it to set it to false if its just a PART.
			
	end
end

Now afterwards this is the CHARACTER. We need to get inside its player GUI. Now heres the part when you use a method called GetPlayerFromCharacter(character)

local debounce = true
function SetTransGUI(part)
	if debounce then
		local human = part.Parent:findFirstChild("Humanoid")
		if human then
			debounce = false
			local plr = game.Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(part.Parent)
			
	end
end

Before we go ahead lets create a seperate function that takes the location and does the fade in and out

function FadeInOut(GUI)  --Parameter when calling the function
	--heres where the for loop we did before kicks in!
	for i  = 0, 1, .25 do
		GUI.BackgroundTransparency = 1 - i
		wait(.25)
	end
	wait(4)
	for i = 0, 1, .25 do
		GUI.BackgroundTransparency = i
		wait(.25)
	end
end

Now we call it in the other script

local debounce = true
function SetTransGUI(part)
	if debounce then
		local human = part.Parent:findFirstChild("Humanoid")
		if human then
			debounce = false
			local plr = game.Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(part.Parent)
			FadeInOut(plr.PlayerGui.ScreenGui.Frame)
			 --you can change that to the location of your own
	end
end

Now we add the wait 60 so its unusable until 60 seconds

local debounce = true
function SetTransGUI(part)
	if debounce then
		local human = part.Parent:findFirstChild("Humanoid")
		if human then
			debounce = false
			local plr = game.Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(part.Parent)
			FadeInOut(plr.PlayerGui.ScreenGui.Frame)
			 --you can change that to the location of your own
			wait(60)
			debounce = true
		end --dont forget the end! c;
	end
end

Now the part when you call this when this the parent of this script is touched

script.Parent.Touched:connect(SetTransGUI)

Now we put it all together.

local debounce = true

function FadeInOut(GUI) 
	for i  = 0, 1, .25 do
		GUI.BackgroundTransparency = 1 - i
		wait(.25)
	end
	wait(4)
	for i = 0, 1, .25 do
		GUI.BackgroundTransparency = i
		wait(.25)
	end
end

function SetTransGUI(part)
	if debounce then
		local human = part.Parent:findFirstChild("Humanoid")
		if human then
			debounce = false
			local plr = game.Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(part.Parent)
			FadeInOut(plr.PlayerGui.ScreenGui.Frame)
			 --you can change that to the location of your own
			wait(60)
			debounce = true
		end 
	end
end

script.Parent.Touched:connect(SetTransGUI)

And this would work but you would have to change the parameter of when you call the FadeInOut.

AND I CAME UP WITH THIS FROM THE TOP OF MY HEAD AND WHEN I TESTED IT WORKED ON TEH FIRST TRY >:D

You're going to need a touched event, http://wiki.roblox.com/index.php?title=Touched

a debounce, http://wiki.roblox.com/index.php?title=Debounce

and a function. http://wiki.roblox.com/index.php?title=Function

Here's another useful link for this: http://wiki.roblox.com/index.php?title=Function#Event_Triggered_Functions

As for a more efficient way of changing the transparency, you can use a for loop: http://wiki.roblox.com/index.php?title=For_loop#For

local gui= --put the path to the gui here, in serverstorage or lighting or wherever you have it stored

script.Parent.Touched:connect(function(hit)
	if not db then
	db=true
	if hit.Parent:FindFirstChild("Humanoid") and Game.Players:FindFirstChild(hit.Parent.Name) then
		local clone=gui:Clone()
		clone.Parent=Game.Players[hit.Parent.Name]
		local frame=clone. --put the path from the ScreenGui item to the item you want to fade into the screen
		for i=1, 0, -0.25 do --the variable "i" will descend from 1 to 0, in increments of -0.25
 			frame.BackgroundTransparency=i
			wait(.25)
		end
		wait(4)
		for i=0, 1, 0.25 do --now i goes from 0 to 1 in increments of 0.25
			frame.BackgroundTransparency=i
			wait(0.25)
		end
		clone:Destroy()
		wait(60)
	end
	db=false
	end
end)
