GUI not turning invisible or visible?

Asked by

10 years ago

Okay, so what I am trying to do in my game is make a GUI turn invisible if a variable called inCutscene = true, and turn back visible if it is false. I currently have an intro GUI working which sets the inCutscene variable to true and false at the appropriate time, except it won't turn the other GUI, called updateButton, true or false. Here is a screenshot of my current setup:

Now I will show you the code for the intro GUI which should turn inCutscene to true/false:

01updateInfo = script.Parent.updateInfo
02Intro = script.Parent
03SS = game.ServerStorage 
04Player = script.Parent.Parent.Parent.Parent.Parent
05cutscene = game.StarterGui.UIconfig.inCutscene
06 
07 
08if SS:FindFirstChild(Player.Name) then
09    script.Parent.Parent.Visible = false
10    script:Destroy()
11else
12    cutscene.Value = true
13    Intro.Visible = true
14    updateInfo.Visible = false
15    for i=1, 10 do
16        wait(0.1)
17        Intro.TextTransparency = Intro.TextTransparency - 0.1
18    end
19    wait(5)
20    for i=1, 10 do
21        wait(0.1)
22        Intro.TextTransparency = Intro.TextTransparency + 0.1
23    end
24    Intro.Text = "Volea"
25   for i=1, 10 do
26        wait(0.1)
27        Intro.TextTransparency = Intro.TextTransparency - 0.1
28    end
29    updateInfo.Visible = true
30    for i=1, 10 do
31        wait(0.1)
32        updateInfo.TextTransparency = updateInfo.TextTransparency - 0.1
33    end
34    wait(5)
35    for i=1, 10 do
36        wait(0.1)
37        updateInfo.TextTransparency = updateInfo.TextTransparency + 0.1
38    end
39    for i=1, 10 do
40        wait(0.1)
41        Intro.TextTransparency = Intro.TextTransparency + 0.1
42    end
43    updateInfo.Visible = false
44    Intro.Visible = false
45    for i=1, 10 do
46        wait(0.01)
47        Intro.BackgroundTransparency = Intro.BackgroundTransparency +0.1
48    end
49    for i=1, 10 do
50        wait(0.1)
51        Intro.Parent.BackgroundTransparency = Intro.Parent.BackgroundTransparency +0.1
52    end
53    cutscene.Value = false
54    script.Parent.Parent.Visible = false
55    A = Instance.new("BoolValue",SS) 
56    A.Name = Player.Name
57end

Now here is the code of the GUI which I want to turn visible when inCutscene = false and invisible if inCutscene = true:

01button = script.Parent
02inCutscene=game.StarterGui.UIconfig.inCutscene
03--Check if we're in a cutscene
04if inCutscene.Value == true then
05    button.Visible = false
06    button.Active = false
07    button.Parent.Visible = false
08    button.Parent.Active = false
09else
10    button.Visible = true
11    button.Active = true
12    button.Parent.Visible = true
13    button.Parent.Active = true
14end
15--Debounce
16local Debounce = false
17 
18 
19script.Parent.MouseButton1Click:connect(function(Clicked)
20    if Debounce == false and inCutscene.Value == false then
21        Debounce = true
22        print("Button clicked.")
23        wait(1)
24        Debounce = false   
25    end
26end)

Thank you for reading! I hope we can find an answer :)

Update: I attempted to put the script which will change the boolValue into the boolValue itself. The button now cannot be clicked during cutscenes but is still visible. novipak 70 — 10y
