Problem: After getting the tag and the the UI goes away everything is fine but when I move agine the UI comes back up. How do I make it so the UI does not come back up?

--LOCAL SCRIPT IN STARTERGUI
---> variables
local Animator = game.Workspace.Map.Jobs.HitBoxes:WaitForChild("Animator")

---> main
Animator.Touched:Connect(function(Hit)
	spawn(function()
		if Hit.Parent:FindFirstChild("Humanoid") then
			script.Parent.Parent.JobUI.AnimatorFrame.Visible = true
			repeat task.wait() until (Animator.Position - Hit.Parent.HumanoidRootPart.Position).magnitude >= 12
			script.Parent.Parent.JobUI.AnimatorFrame.Visible = false
		end
			end)
end)

is this a localscript or normal script? edit: oops sorry i didn’t see that it said it was localscript, let me try to help

#3

the reason it shows up again, is because when you touch the hitbox it runs the “Animator.Touched” function, then it makes the UI visible again with script.Parent.Parent.JobUI.AnimatorFrame.Visible = true so you have to add script.Parent.Parent.JobUI.AnimatorFrame.Enabled = false so it doesnt become visible again

--LOCAL SCRIPT IN STARTERGUI
---> variables
local Animator = game.Workspace.Map.Jobs.HitBoxes:WaitForChild("Animator")

---> main
Animator.Touched:Connect(function(Hit)
	spawn(function()
		if Hit.Parent:FindFirstChild("Humanoid") then
			script.Parent.Parent.JobUI.AnimatorFrame.Visible = true
			repeat task.wait() until (Animator.Position - Hit.Parent.HumanoidRootPart.Position).magnitude >= 12
			script.Parent.Parent.JobUI.AnimatorFrame.Visible = false
script.Parent.Parent.JobUI.AnimatorFrame.Enabled = false --just add this simple line and it should work
		end
			end)
end)

This comes up
Enabled is not a valid member of Frame "Players.Cyber_Designer.PlayerGui.JobUI.AnimatorFrame

#5

try replacing script.Parent.Parent.JobUI.AnimatorFrame.Enabled = false with script.Parent.Parent.JobUI.Enabled = false

#6

That works but I can’t do that because I have other UI in JobUI

try

local Animator = game.Workspace.Map.Jobs.HitBoxes:WaitForChild("Animator")
local player = game.Players.LocalPlayer
local job = Instance.new("StringValue", player)

---> main
Animator.Touched:Connect(function(Hit)
	spawn(function()
		if Hit.Parent:FindFirstChild("Humanoid") then
			if job.Value ~= "Animator" then
				script.Parent.Parent.JobUI.AnimatorFrame.Visible = true
				repeat task.wait() until (Animator.Position - Hit.Parent.HumanoidRootPart.Position).magnitude >= 12
				script.Parent.Parent.JobUI.AnimatorFrame.Visible = false
				job.Value = "Animator"
			end
		end
	end)
end)

It come up with no error and it also makes the UI come right up after you hit Get Tag

#10 
local Animator = game.Workspace.Map.Jobs.HitBoxes:WaitForChild("Animator")
local player = game.Players.LocalPlayer
local job = Instance.new("StringValue", player)
job.Name = "Job"

---> main
Animator.Touched:Connect(function(Hit)
	spawn(function()
		if Hit.Parent:FindFirstChild("Humanoid") then
			if job.Value == "Animator" then
				-- do nothing
			else
				script.Parent.Parent.JobUI.AnimatorFrame.Visible = true
				repeat task.wait() until (Animator.Position - Hit.Parent.HumanoidRootPart.Position).magnitude >= 12
				script.Parent.Parent.JobUI.AnimatorFrame.Visible = false
				job.Value = "Animator"
			end
		end
	end)
end)

When I play the UI comes up after hitting Get Tag but it comes up not as fast as the other one

#12

can you tell me where the title (on the players head is located)?
example: script.Parent.Title

#13

I don’t know how to do that but the players Head UI in not the problem the UI that comes up is just UI in StarterGui

#14

I have another script that does that

#15

actually, i do need it, because i want to check for it in the script.

i mean like, where is the title located, in the players head?

#16

Here ha ya is in the players head

-- SERVER SCRIPT INSIDE SERVERSCRIPTSERVICE
---> services
game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(plr)
	plr.CharacterAdded:Connect(function(char)
		---> variables
		local NameTagClone = game.ServerStorage.HeadUI:Clone()

		---> main
		NameTagClone.Parent = char.Head
		NameTagClone.Adornee = char.Head

		NameTagClone.UI.NameUI.NameName.Text = char.Name

		if plr.Team == nil then
			NameTagClone.UI.JobUI.JobName.Text = "Player"
		end

		repeat wait() until plr.Team ~= nil

		NameTagClone.UI.JobUI.JobName.Text = plr.Team.Name

		char.Humanoid.DisplayDistanceType = "None"

		game:GetService("RunService").Heartbeat:Connect(function()
			NameTagClone.UI.JobUI.JobName.Text = plr.Team.Name
		end)
	end)
