Im trying to make it so if you are … Close to the shop a GUI Opens, if not the GUI is closed,
Here is my code in startplayer:

local rs = game:GetService("RunService")
local plr = game.Players.LocalPlayer
local character = plr.Character or plr.CharacterAdded:wait()
local boostshop = game.Workspace.Boosts.UpgradePart

rs.Heartbeat:Connect(function()
	local boostmag = (character.HumanoidRootPart.Position - boostshop.Position).Magnitude
	
	if boostmag < 5 then
		plr.PlayerGui.Main2.BoostFrame.Visible = true
	else
		plr.PlayerGui.Main2.BoostFrame.Visible = false
	end
end)

The error:
Line 8, HumanodiRootPart is not a valid member of model

Well try this. Before your script beings running code put a wait timer for about 3 seconds to give it a load time then instead of waiting for characterAdded try using plr.Character. And if that doesn’t work say if
plr ==nil then return end :+1:

#3 
local Player = game:GetService("Players").LocalPlayer
repeat wait(.05) until Player.Character ~= nil
local Character = Player.Character
local HumanoidRootPart = Character:WaitForChild("HumanoidRootPart")

local BoostShop = game:GetService("Workspace"):WaitForChild("Boosts")["UpgradePart"]

game:GetService("RunService").Heartbeat:Connect(function())
local Mag = (HumanoidRootPart.Position - BoostShop.Position).Magnitude

if Mag < 5 then
Player["PlayerGui"]["Main2"]["BoostFrame"].Visible = true
else
Player["PlayerGui"]["Main2"]["BoostFrame"].Visible = false
end

end)

Hmph, I’m not too sure. I’ve edited my OP. Perhaps give that a go?

#6

i tested your script and it works perfectly on my end

did you put this on a localscript already?

What I would do is add a invisible cancollide part then set it so when the players touches the gui visible then when they are not the gui is not visible

#8

Yeah its a local script in starterplayerscripts, ;//

#9

Just do character:WaitForChild(“HumanoidRootPart”). Also, that’s not a good way to proceed,

Last time, I’ve tried it and the magnitude wasn’t updating(idk why tho)

You need to do :

(game.Workspace[plr.Name]:FindFirstChild("HumanoidRootPart").Position - boostshop.Position).Magnitude
#10

Nope, this does not work either, im not sure if this is because im getting errors with other GUI would this affect it?

#11

Are you using this in startercharacterscripts?

#12

Yes, i just added a print(boostmag) but that isnt printing, and print(“test”) just below where the function starts wont run; indicating that the function is not running.
