Why is my sliding black rectangle not triggering the function when it reaches the center?
I currently have a white rectangle that contains a red rectangle in the middle, basically there is a black rectangle at the start that keeps moving to it's right. The player must press B when the black is in the center.
Currently there are no errors showing up in output but there is something wrong, i'm using a print() function to test it and nothing prints.
Also, I was wondering if there was a property/easier way to detect contact from one text label to another to clear up my cluttered if-then statement.
I'm out of ideas and I don't know what to do. Here's the code:
repeat wait() until game.Players.LocalPlayer --Waits for the Player
local player = script.Parent.Parent --Player
local mouse = player:GetMouse() --Get the player's mouse.
mouse.KeyDown:connect(function(key) --Function
if key == "b" then --Waits for the key to be pressed, once it is, the statement if fired.
player.PlayerGui.ReversalGui.Frame.Bar.LocalScript1.Disabled = true
wait(0.25)
if player.PlayerGui.ReversalGui.Frame.Bar.Position == UDim2.new(0.2, 0, 0, 0) or player.PlayerGui.ReversalGui.Frame.Bar.Position == UDim2.new(0.24, 0, 0, 0) or player.PlayerGui.ReversalGui.Frame.Bar.Position == UDim2.new(0.28, 0, 0, 0) or player.PlayerGui.ReversalGui.Frame.Bar.Position == UDim2.new(0.32, 0, 0, 0) or player.PlayerGui.ReversalGui.Frame.Bar.Position == UDim2.new(0.36, 0, 0, 0) or player.PlayerGui.ReversalGui.Frame.Bar.Position == UDim2.new(0.4, 0, 0, 0) or player.PlayerGui.ReversalGui.Frame.Bar.Position == UDim2.new(0.44, 0, 0, 0) or player.PlayerGui.ReversalGui.Frame.Bar.Position == UDim2.new(0.48, 0, 0, 0) or player.PlayerGui.ReversalGui.Frame.Bar.Position == UDim2.new(0.52, 0, 0, 0) or player.PlayerGui.ReversalGui.Frame.Bar.Position == UDim2.new(0.56, 0, 0, 0) or player.PlayerGui.ReversalGui.Frame.Bar.Position == UDim2.new(0.6, 0, 0, 0) or player.PlayerGui.ReversalGui.Frame.Bar.Position == UDim2.new(0.64, 0, 0, 0) or player.PlayerGui.ReversalGui.Frame.Bar.Position == UDim2.new(0.68, 0, 0, 0) then --This is what I was referring to earlier
print("work") --Printing check to make sure it works.
end
end
end)
I'd really appreciate some help. I've looked at the Wiki page for UDim2 already so I honestly don't know what to do.

KeyDown, as I recently mentioned in another Question, is deprecated of mouse, meaning it would never run. It’s best to resort to UserInputService‘s:IsKeyDown() for holding key recognition. it would look like so when applied
local UserInputService = game:GetService("UserInputService")
UserInputService.InputBegan:Connect(function(InputObect)
if (UserInputService:IsKeyDown(Enum.KeyCode.B)) then
print("User is Holding the B key down")
end
end)
Hope this works for you. If so don’t forget to accept and upvote!

Well, even though Feahren beat me to this, I'll still help you out a bit, as far as the if-then statements, since you can't actually detect if TextLabels are colliding.
If you place the LocalScript (with this code) into the StarterGui, you can effectively shorten the amount of clauses you have written out like so:
local player = game.Players.LocalPlayer -- Player
local bar = script.Parent.ReversalGui.Frame.Bar
game:GetService("UserInputService").InputBegan:Connect(function(inputObject, gameProcessedEvent)
if inputObject.KeyCode == Enum.KeyCode.B then
bar.LocalScript1.Disabled = true
wait(0.25)
local check = bar.Position.X.Scale
if check >= 0.2 and check <= 6.8 then
print("Press Now!")
end
end
end)
Again, KeyDown is deprecated, use UIS (UserInputService)
