GUI button help?
I am trying to figure out why roblox is not reading when the button is pressed, the script is a local script.
1 | closeButton = Parent |
2 |
3 | closeButton.MouseButton1Down:connect(function() |
4 | print"pressed" |
5 | end) |
It does not print anything.

Line 1 is your problem. Change it to this: closeButton = script.Parent NoahWillCode 370 — 10y

1 | function onClick() |
2 | print("Pressed") |
3 | end |
4 | script.Parent.MouseButton1Click:connect(onClick) |
You also wrote print"pressed" instead of print("pressed") <-Works either way

Okay, so, "Parent" was wrong. He should have used "script.Parent" But jay, print"Pressed" is just as legal as print("Pressed"). Lua is flexible like that. The parentheses are just better to use for readability, as well as in special cases when they are necessary. NoahWillCode 370 — 10y

lua seems to be very flexible compared to other languages like c++ CaptainRuno 40 — 10y
