Gui doesnt appear before tweening?
01 | game.Workspace.alarm.Touched:Connect(function(touch) |
02 | local alarm = false |
03 | local gui = game.StarterGui.PoliceNoti |
04 | local alarmevent = game.ReplicatedStorage.AlarmEvent |
05 | if touch.Parent:FindFirstChild("Humanoid")and game.Workspace.alarmsound.IsPlaying == false then |
06 | game.Workspace.alarmsound:Play() |
07 | alarmevent:FireAllClients() |
08 | gui.Enabled = true |
09 | alarm = true |
10 | if alarm == true then |
11 | wait(16.89) |
12 | game.Workspace.alarmsound.Volume = 0 |
13 | gui.Enabled = false |
14 | end |
15 | end |
16 | end) |
i also have a 2 second wait built into the local script in the gui which reads as such
1 | local text = script.Parent.TextLabel |
2 | local alarmevent = game.ReplicatedStorage.AlarmEvent |
3 | alarmevent.OnClientEvent:Connect(function() |
4 | wait(2) |
5 | text.AnchorPoint = Vector2.new(-1, 0) |
6 | text:TweenPosition(UDim2.new(-0,5, 0, 0, 0), nil, nil, 5) |
7 | end) |
have tried multiple things but it hasnt worked. Everything other than the gui appearing works. No errors in the console nothing, it just refuses to appear

Okay i see a lot of scripter "Beginners" do this. so you're trying to set gui.Enabled in StarterGui which is NOT what the Player sees on it screen. Basically everything in the Starterguigets copied to the Players Player.PlayerGui But you can't just change it directly from a normal script You have to use a Localscriptbecause a normal one can't change any descants of the PlayerGui but how does a LocalScript know when it has to change it. You have to use RemoteEvents
i know you know how to do that
