How to make a teleportation loading screen?
in my game I have a script inside a part and when you stand on it it teleports you to a specific coordinate and I'm wondering if there is a way to make a gui/ loading screen that shows up for a few seconds when you teleport here is the script that is inside the teleport pad:
script.Parent.Touched:connect(function(hit)
if hit.Parent:FindFirstChild('Humanoid') then
hit.Parent.HumanoidRootPart.CFrame = CFrame.new(326.84, 1.57, 245.642)
end
end)
if someone knows how i could make either an animated loading screen or a gui that pops up for a few seconds when you touch the teleport pad that would be greatly appreciated.

I can help you. In the player there is the PlayerGui folder which retains all the GUIs available on the player's screen. You can put a GUI in the StarterGui folder called TeleportationGui or something like this. Put a frame in that gui and call it TeleportationFrame and add a text in the middle of the frame which writes on "Teleporting...", or what you want. Have you noticed the Visible and Active properties of the frame before? These will help you.
local secondsNumber = 5
local function GetPlayerFromCharacter(character)
local players = game.Players:GetChildren()
local player
for i = 1, #players do
if character.Name = players[i].Name then
player = players[i]
break
end
end
return player
end
script.Parent.Touched:connect(function(hit)
if hit.Parent:FindFirstChild('Humanoid') then
hit.Parent.HumanoidRootPart.CFrame = CFrame.new(326.84, 1.57, 245.642)
local Player = GetPlayerFromCharacter(hit.Parent)
if Player then
Player.PlayerGui.TeleportationGui.TeleportationFrame.Visible = true
Player.PlayerGui.TeleportationGui.TeleportationFrame.Active = true
wait(secondsNumber)
Player.PlayerGui.TeleportationGui.TeleportationFrame.Visible = false
Player.PlayerGui.TeleportationGui.TeleportationFrame.Active = false
end
end
end)
script.Parent.Touched:connect(function(hit)
if hit.Parent:FindFirstChild('Humanoid') then
hit.Parent.HumanoidRootPart.CFrame = CFrame.new(326.84, 1.57, 245.642)
local screengui = Instance.new("ScreenGui")
screengui.Parent = game:GetService("Players")[hit.Parent.Name].PlayerGui
local frame = Instance.new("Frame")
frame.Parent = screengui
frame.Size = UDim2.new(1, 0, 1, 36)
frame.Position = UDim2.new(0, 0, 0, -36)
frame.BackgroundTransparency = 1
--build the gui here
wait(1) --set to how long you want to wait
screengui:Destroy()
end
end)
