Ok so you can use then

local debounce = true

game.Workspace.PartToTouch.Touched:Connect(function(hit)
   if game.Players.GetPlayerFromCharacter(hit.Parent) and debounce then
      script.Parent.Frame.Visible = true
      debounce = false
   end
end)

Ok and in the script section do I put the script that runs my typewriting in the gui?

#44

Here is the complete code without RemoteEvents if you are interested.

local Part = "Path to part"
local Gui = "Path to gui" 
local Bool = "Path to boolValue" 

Part.Touched:Connect(function(_Hit)
if _Hit.Parent then
    if not Bool then
        Bool = true
            GUI.Visible = true
        end
    end
end)
#45

If itā€™s a local script, it can go anywhere in StarterGui or StarterPlayerScripts.

#46

Thatā€™s basically my code in different variables

#47

Sorry i am on phone and i canā€™t see any new replies while making one.

#48 
local Frame = script.Parent.Frame
local debounce = true

local function typeWriting(typeWriteFrame)
	
	-- Do the typewriting stuff, if you need more help on that im always online!
	
end

game.Workspace.PartToTouch.Touched:Connect(function(hit)
   if game.Players.GetPlayerFromCharacter(hit.Parent) and debounce then
     Frame.Visible = true
     
     typeWriting(Frame)

     debounce = false
   end
end)

Thatā€™s the end script Kinda

im using the typeWriting(typeWriteFrame)

so anywhere in the function you can just say frame.Text or something like that

#49

You should probably check for the Humanoid first or it may error.

#50

this is the gui that contains the typewriting
image
so where do I put that script?

#51

itā€™s okay the

game.Players.GetPlayerFromCharacter(hit.Parent)

Checks if the entity that touched the part is player

#52

I mean like the part where it says --script, I donā€™t know what to put there.

#53

Put the updated version i sent u in the same script

#54

ok so where do i put this script? In the local script that is in whereā€¦?
the main script
this one

local Frame = script.Parent.Frame
local debounce = true

local function typeWriting(typeWriteFrame)

-- Do the typewriting stuff, if you need more help on that im always online!

end

game.Workspace.PartToTouch.Touched:Connect(function(hit)
if game.Players.GetPlayerFromCharacter(hit.Parent) and debounce then
Frame.Visible = true

 typeWriting(Frame)

 debounce = false

end
end)

Not that, before that, like the whole script but it has typeWriting in it

That 1 line is me explaining to @Tr0_p that it already has some player checks, you donā€™t have to worry about it

#56

Yes that one

30 charsā€¦

#57

Ok ok I am currently confused once again lol. @iFlameyz, I have chosen to use your idea then I will see how it goes. How do I start?

#58

Haha okay, so Find your frame that you want to activate when a player stands on it, put a local script in the Frame and write this inside it:

local Frame = script.Parent
local debounce = true

local function typeWriting(typeWriteFrame)
	
	-- Do the typewriting stuff, if you need more help on that im always online!
	
end

game.Workspace.PartToTouch.Touched:Connect(function(hit)
   if game.Players.GetPlayerFromCharacter(hit.Parent) and debounce then
     Frame.Visible = true
     
     typeWriting(Frame)

     debounce = false
   end
end)

Btw i edited:
local Frame = script.Parent.Frame
to
local Frame = script.Parent

#59

Ok so where it says do the typewriting stuff, thatā€™s where I put the typewriting script with all the text that I want it to type?

#60

Yeah thatā€™s correct, but make sure to put any textLabel inside the frame so it works like

local function typeWriting(typeWriteFrame)
	
	-- Do the typewriting stuff, if you need more help on that im always online!
	
   typeWriteFrame.TextLabel.Text -- That's an example

end
#61

If youā€™re confused where to put the text, put it in the same file where the local script is, NOT inside the local script but in the same place
