GUI animation not running

Help and Feedback Scripting Support

Hello developers,

I have an issue that I have no idea how to fix basically, it skips one line of a gui tween,
script;

local Home = script.Parent.Main
local Economy = script.Parent.Economy

local Loading = script.Parent.Loading


Home.Classes.Economy.MouseButton1Click:Connect(function()

	Home.Classes.Economy:TweenPosition(UDim2.new(0,0,1.5,0),"In","Back")
	wait(0.5)
	Home.Classes.Business:TweenPosition(UDim2.new(0.367,0,1.5,0),"In","Back")
	wait(0.5)
	Home.Classes.Flex:TweenPosition(UDim2.new(0.735,0,1.5,0),"In","Back")
	wait(1)
	Home.Classes.Economy.Visible = false
	Home.Classes.Business.Visible = false
	Home.Classes.Flex.Visible = false
	Home:TweenPosition(UDim2.new(0,0,-1,0))

	
	Loading:TweenPosition(UDim2.new(0,0,0,0)) -- Brings loading screen to middle
	wait(5)
	Loading:TweenPosition(UDim2.new(0,0,-1,0)) -- Brings loading screen to up
	Economy:TweenPosition(UDim2.new(0,0,0,0)) -- Brings Economy screen to middle
	
	
	wait(0.3)

	print("BriningLoadingDown")

	Home:TweenPosition(UDim2.new(0,0,1,0))
	Loading:TweenPosition(UDim2.new(0,0,1,0)) -- Skips this line.
	wait(2)

end)

EDIT: The Loading screeen needs to go to 0,0,0,0 then 0,0,-1,0 then 0,0,1,0 . It doesnt stay at 0,0,-1,0 as when it appears again, I dont want it to over lap with other screens (Frames)

You didn’t specify how long each tween should run, the default is 1 second

Yes, but its only one line that doesnt work, and i’ve never needed to specify how long it takes before.

4

Which bit of the script doesn’t work

5

This part here, its meant to bring the frame back down underneath the main frame.

6

Shouldn’t that be Loading:TweenPosition(UDim2.new(0,0,-1,0))
make it negative

7

Somehow, negative is bringing it up instead of down.

8

Its because your using offset "

9

try printing the value that the :TweenPostion() returns. It returns a bool specifying weather or not the tween will play. Maybe it is just not playing.

10

How would I be able to do that, sorry?

you can either do

print(GuiObject:TweenPosition(Udim2.new()))

or

local wasTweened = GuiObject:TweenPosition(Udim2.new())
print(wasTweened)

I think what’s probably happening is the gui is getting stuck because another tween starts before an old one is finished.

I recommend not using built in gui tweening, but instead using normal tween service. It’s what I do, and it works great. You wouldn’t have the issue of the gui getting stuck anymore, and it gives you more options for your tweens.

Hope this helps.

Edit: btw I think the part that breaks it is the wait(0.3). The loading tween is trying to go to -1, and then before it can finish you try tweening it to 1.

Thank you, I found that i just needed to increase the wait to 1 instead of 0.3, thanks for the help!
