Can someone help me with my "Pop Up GUI" code? The GUI doesn't pop up.
I am trying to make a script where when you touch a certain part, a GUI pops up on your screen. However, it has not been working in thew actual game, and not in the playtest. Please help me! This is my code:
script.Parent.Touched:Connect(function(hit)
if hit.Name == "Left Foot" then
game.StarterGui.Shop.Frame.Visible = true
end
end)

Please read this short article excerpt.
TL;DR:
StarterGui is not the authentic household of the GUI Objects, to actively modify the local User Interface, you have to access the PlayerGui container of a Player Object. Fortunately, the .Touched signal's Hit parameter can be used to pull a Player Object from the Instance of contact, which is a piece of your Character Rig.
local Players = game:GetService("Players")
local Part = script.Parent
local function OpenGui(Hit)
local Humanoid = Hit.Parent:FindFirstChildOfClass("Humanoid")
if (Humanoid) then
local Player = Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(Hit.Parent)
if (Player) then
local PlayerGui = Player:WaitForChild("PlayerGui")
local Shop = PlayerGui:WaitForChild("Shop")
local Frame = Shop:WaitForChild("Frame")
Frame.Visible = not (Frame.Visible)
end
end
end
Part.Touched:Connect(OpenGui)

It works, but only once. How would I make it so it works multiple times? Coppper_Chase 9 — 4y

If I step on it, then close the gui, it doesn't pop up again when I step on it. Coppper_Chase 9 — 4y

I have an X Button script that makes the GUI invisible Coppper_Chase 9 — 4y

Make sure you're not making the Shop Gui invisible. Otherwise this will also cause the Frame to disappear regardless of the visibility. Ziffixture 6913 — 4y

Then how would I close it without using the X Button or making it invisible? Coppper_Chase 9 — 4y
