Why isn't my GUI disappearing and reappearing when it's told too?

So I scripted this local script in my shop GUI to pop up when you click it. (there are three parts to the shop GUI; Swords, Effects, and Coins). So that way when you click one of the (Swords, Effects, and coins) GUIs the list of items would pop up. I thought I got everything right but I was wrong.

Swords = script.Parent.Parent.Swords
Sword = script.Parent.Parent.Sword
Effects = script.Parent.Parent.Effects
Effect = script.Parent.Parent.Effect
Coins = script.Parent.Parent.Coins
Coin = script.Parent.Parent.Coin

visible = false

Swords.MouseButton1Down:Connect(function()
 if visible == false then
  Sword.Visible = true
  visible = true


end
Effect.Visible = false  -- these two lines of code tell the other guis to close when this gui is opened
Coin.Visible = false
end)

When I press the button the gui will pop up and the others disappeared but after clicking it multiple times it wouldn't work. (BTW I am new to scripting so thanks.) I put this local script in every button but I just changed the Coins and Swords and effects. Thank you! If you need more details I'll give more details.

When I press the button the gui will pop up and the others disappeared but after clicking it multiple times it wouldn't work.

So judging from the video, you want to toggle the visibility of each gui? SteamG00B 1633 — 5y

Also, is this the full script for the guis or is there more than this? SteamG00B 1633 — 5y

Yes there is only one script for the Coin, Sword, or Effect button but, there is the same local script in the button. However, I changed lines 10, 17, and 18 to fit that button. sbob12345m 59 — 5y

You've forgotten to turn the visible thing off again if it's pressed when it's showed. This should work:

Swords = script.Parent.Parent.Swords
Sword = script.Parent.Parent.Sword
Effects = script.Parent.Parent.Effects
Effect = script.Parent.Parent.Effect
Coins = script.Parent.Parent.Coins
Coin = script.Parent.Parent.Coin

visible = false

Swords.MouseButton1Down:Connect(function()
 if visible == false then
  Sword.Visible = true
  visible = true


end
Effect.Visible = false  -- these two lines of code tell the other guis to close when this gui is opened
Coin.Visible = false
visible=false
end)

cheers!
