I am trying to get an animated text gui to pop up when I click a brick. What am I doing wrong?
It's basically someone talking when I click a bell. Picture of my code:https://ibb.co/QfZLJWn I have a click detector as the child of the brick I want to press, and this Script as the child of the TextLabel that will pop up. Anything I'm doing wrong? If you have any questions DM me at rebloom#9167. Thanks.

Id say using events and having them run would probably have it work how you want if I am understanding your question correctly. deth836231 142 — 4y

From what I see, you don't assign the ClickDetector.MouseClick event to a function. The common way is to simply do
ClickDetector.MouseButton.MouseClick:Connect(function(playerWhoClicked)
TextLabel = script.Parent
local Text
function soundEffect()
local sound = Instance.new("Sound")
sound.Parent = ClickDetector.Parent
sound.Name = "Text Sound"
sound.Volume = 1
sound:Play()
game.Debris:AddItem(sound, sound.TimeLength) --Deletes the sound after it stops playing
end)
function setText(word)
Text = word
end
for i = 1, #Text do
TextLabel.Text = string.sub(Text, 1, i)
soundEffect()
TextLabel.Color3 = Color3.fromRGB(0, 0, 0)
if script.Parent.Parent.Parent.Enabled then
local frame = script.Parent.Parent
frame.Visible = true
wait(0.04)
end
end
wait(3)
setText("Good Evening")
wait(3)
setText("What can I do for ye?")
print("Done")
end)
If you're waiting for the event to happen, you'd write
ClickDetector.MouseClick:Wait() --code here

You gotta put the code inside the function! Utter_Incompetence 856 — 4y
