Hey!
So long story short, I’m pretty new into scripting and I’m still learning a lot.
So what I was trying to do is when you touch this part, it fades away from transparency 0 to 1 then another model fades up from transparency 1 to 0
Here is the code:
round = game.workspace.Circle
game.Workspace.Circle.touched:connect(function()
round.Transparency = 0.1
wait(0.1)
round.Transparency = 0.2
wait(0.1)
round.Transparency = 0.3
wait(0.1)
round.Transparency = 0.4
wait(0.1)
round.Transparency = 0.5
wait(0.1)
round.Transparency = 0.6
wait(0.1)
round.Transparency = 0.7
wait(0.1)
round.Transparency = 0.8
wait(0.1)
round.Transparency = 0.9
wait(0.1)
round.Transparency = 1
wait(3)
for i,v in pairs(game:GetService(“Workspace”):FindFirstChild(“Model”):GetChildren()) do
wait(0.1)
v.CanCollide = true
v.Transparency = 0.9
wait(0.1)
v.Transparency = 0.8
wait(0.1)
v.Transparency = 0.7
wait(0.1)
v.Transparency = 0.6
wait(0.1)
v.Transparency = 0.5
wait(0.1)
v.Transparency = 0.4
wait(0.1)
v.Transparency = 0.3
wait(0.1)
v.Transparency = 0.2
wait(0.1)
v.Transparency = 0.1
wait(0.1)
v.Transparency = 0
wait(0.1)
end
end)
So what happens when I run the script is:
Now I have a few Questions regarding how I can make this better
Question 1:
How can I make these parts load faster, it takes around 1-2 seconds for each part to load which is annoying, I need the entire model to load up in less then a second.
Question 2: how do I make the Entire model fade in at once instead of having each individual part loading in until the entire model is visible.
Question 3: How do I make a debounce script for this?
Question 4: is there a way to make this Transparency Fade thing easier instead of having to type in every transparency number until it reaches 0?
Thank you for your time, you don’t have to answer all the question. I’d truly appreciate it if you can answer those you know about!

#1: Decrease the time used in the wait() calls (e.g. make it 0.05 instead of 0.1).
#2: You’ll need to loop through the children of the model and use coroutines or spawn() on the fade function to get them running synchronously.
For example:
local function Fade(Part)
-- fade code
end
for _, Child in pairs(Model:GetChildren()) do -- loop through children of Model
coroutine.wrap(Fade)(Child) -- coroutine.wrap() let's you make a function run on a different 'thread'
end
#3: To make a debounce, you do something like this:
local Debounce = false
Part.Touched:Connect(function()
if not Debounce then -- if debounce isnt running
Debounce = true -- enable debounce
-- code
wait(1)
Debounce = false -- disable debounce
end
end)
#4: Yes, you can use a loop or TweenService, for example:
for Transparency = 1, 0, -0.1 do -- go from 1 to 0, taking away 0.1 every time
wait(0.1)
Part.Transparency = Transparency -- set the part transparency to the current number
end
-- OR
local Info = TweenInfo.new(0.1) -- the time it takes to tween, among other things
local Properties = {Transparency = 0} -- the properties you want to tween
local Tween = game:GetService("TweenService"):Create(Part, Info, Properties)
Tween:Play() -- play the tween
Since you’re a new scripter, I’m probably introducing lots of new concepts, so it would do you good to look them up on the wiki or ask people about them

Thanks man, Just another question (kinda off topic)
you know how we use game.Part.Touched to check if someone has touched a part, what if I want to check if someone has clicked a textbutton inside a screenGUI?

TextButton.MouseButton1Down:Connect(function()
print('Hello')
end)
Note
For Guis & UserInput always use a LocalScript because a script won’t work if FE(Filtering Enabled) is on

You can use two for-loops to do this easily. No need for multiple threads spawned.
local model = workspace.Model
for i = 1,10 do
for _,v in pairs(model:GetChildren()) do
v.Transparency = v.Transparency + 0.1
end
wait(0.1)
end
