GUI only popping up when the part is touched?
I only want my gui to show when the part is being touched, right now it is staying on the screen until you X out of it. This is what I have using a remote event(probably wrong thing to use)
local limit = 2
script.Parent.Touched:Connect(function(hit)
if hit.Parent:FindFirstChild("Humanoid") then
local player = game.Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(hit.Parent)
if player.leaderstats.Points.Value >= limit then
if hit.Parent:FindFirstChild("Torso") then
script.Parent.CanCollide = false
elseif hit.Parent:FindFirstChild("UpperTorso") then
script.Parent.CanCollide = false
end
end
end
end)
script.Parent.Touched:Connect(function(hit)
if hit.Parent:FindFirstChild("Humanoid")then
game.ReplicatedStorage.Popup:FireClient(game.Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(hit.Parent))
end
end)

it pops up when a part is touched but I only want it to show when the part is being touched, right now it stays after you stop touching the part Imgood543 21 — 4y

Why are you even using :FireClient()? The player GUI can be accessible by doing game.Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(hit.Parent). Bruh BradNewTypical 232 — 4y

if you want it to pop up when touched, do script.Parent.Touched, and when you want it to go away, use script.Parent.TouchEnded. killerbrenden 1537 — 4y

Your solution to this is TouchEnded. CanCollide has nothing to do with stopping a touched event, so don't use that. This is what you should be using
Part.Touched:Connect(function(hit)
if game.Players:FindFirstChild(hit.Parent.Name) then
-- Fire a client event to pop up a GUI
end
end)
Part.TouchEnded:Connect(function(hit)
if game.Players:FindFirstChild(hit.Parent.Name) then
--Close the GUI with a client event
end
end)
A better solution would be to use magnitude from a local script. It will work nicely if it's a cylinder too. That would work like this
local RunService = game:GetService('RunService')
local Range = 10 --Distance in studs
local Part = game.Workspace.Part --Part that you want to detect when touched
local LocalPlayer = game.Players.LocalPlayer
repeat wait() until LocalPlayer.Character
local PlayerCharacter = LocalPlayer.Character
local HumanoidRootPart = PlayerCharacter:WaitForChild('HumanoidRootPart')
RunService.Heartbeat:Connect(function() --fires every frame/FPS
if (HumanoidRootPart.Position - Part.Position).magnitude < Range then
--Pull up the GUI from here
else
--Close the GUI here
end
end)
Hope this helps out.
