Pressing E not making Gui visible but no errors?

Asked by

I'm making an ATM machine for a roleplay game I'm working on. I made an "E to interact" and it worked with print so I replaced it with making the ATM Gui visible. It didn't work and there wasn't errors. I tried debugging and it came out positive. My code is a LocalScript:

local HumanoidRootPart = game.Players.LocalPlayer.Character:WaitForChild("HumanoidRootPart")
local UIS = game:GetService("UserInputService")
local Atm = game.Workspace.Atm

UIS.InputBegan:Connect(function(keyCode)
    if keyCode.keyCode == Enum.KeyCode.E then
        if (Atm.Position - HumanoidRootPart.Position).magnitude <10 then
            game.StarterGui.ScreenGui.FinnianATM.Visible = true
            print("Worked")
        end
    end
end)

The error that I assume is on line 7, where it talks about the ATM. You can't get the ATM position, you can only get the position of one part inside of the ATM, considering if it's a model or not. If it is a model, make a HitBox part that is the size of the ATM and make it transparent, and no Collidable and then use that position for the magnitude. killerbrenden 1537 — 4y

Instead of using "Visible = True", I normally Use "Enabled = True" or Enabled = False".

Could you explain how I would go about using that? (I've never used enabled before) 8jxms 9 — 4y

Enabled is a ScreenGUI property where you can have all the components of the GUI Enabled or Disabled. killerbrenden 1537 — 4y

Enabled Just means that the "Gui" is allowed to be Used or Not. and it also sets the Visibility respectively. ffancyaxax12 181 — 4y

local UIS = game:GetService("UserInputService")
local ATMHitBox = game:GetService("Workspace"):FindFirstChild("ATM").HitBox
local Character = game.Players.LocalPlayer.Character or game.Players.LocalPlayer.CharacterAdded:Wait()

wait(0.25) --Wait For The Character To FULLY Load In

local HRP = Character:FindFirstChild("HumanoidRootPart")

UIS.InputBegan:Connect(function(key)
    if key.KeyCode == Enum.KeyCode.E then
        if (ATMHitBox.Position - HRP.Position).Magnitude < 10 then
            --Whatever You Want To Happen
            print("Works")
        end
    end
end)

This Also Works As Well
