But I want to add more Scrolls and not only 2.

You need to tell us what this code is supposed to do to the tool, as well as tell us what the tool is, otherwise we don’t really know what you’re trying to do altogether.

#24

It will make one scroll become invisible if you click it once (activate it) and not all at the same time and then if you click it again, one scroll will become invisible.

#25

Is there a certain order that the scrolls become invisible? Does one new scroll become invisible each time you click?

#27

Try this, activated only returns true or false, and you can only have one else statement so you have to create a variable (activateCount) that increases each time it’s been activated and use elseif to check it.

See this for more info Control Structures | Roblox Creator Documentation

local tool = script.Parent
local activateCount = 0

tool.Activated:Connect(function()
	activateCount += 1
	if activateCount == 1 then
		tool.Handle.Scroll1A.Transparency = 1
		tool.Handle.Scroll1B.Transparency = 1
	elseif activateCount == 2 then
		tool.Handle.Scroll2A.Transparency = 1
		tool.Handle.Scroll2B.Transparency = 1
	elseif activateCount == 3 then
		tool.Handle.Scroll3A.Transparency = 1
		tool.Handle.Scroll3B.Transparency = 1
	elseif activateCount == 4 then
		tool.Handle.Scroll4A.Transparency = 1
		tool.Handle.Scroll4B.Transparency = 1
	elseif activateCount == 5 then
		tool.Handle.Scroll5A.Transparency = 1
		tool.Handle.Scroll5B.Transparency = 1
	elseif activateCount == 6 then
		tool.Handle.Scroll6A.Transparency = 1
		tool.Handle.Scroll6B.Transparency = 1
	end
end)

It seems like it starts from Scroll 6.

#32

Are the scrolls placed in the correct order?

local tool = script.Parent
local activateCount = 0

local Activations = {
	[1] = {tool.Handle.Scroll1A, tool.Handle.Scroll1B},
	[2] = {tool.Handle.Scroll2A, tool.Handle.Scroll2B},
	[3] = {tool.Handle.Scroll3A, tool.Handle.Scroll3B},
	[4] = {tool.Handle.Scroll4A, tool.Handle.Scroll4B},
	[5] = {tool.Handle.Scroll5A, tool.Handle.Scroll5B},
	[6] = {tool.Handle.Scroll6A, tool.Handle.Scroll6B},
}

tool.Activated:Connect(function()
	if activateCount > #Activations then
		return;
	end
	
	activateCount += 1
	if Activations[activateCount] then
		Activations[Activations][1].Transparency = 1
		Activations[Activations][2].Transparency = 1
	end
end)

This should work was well, I think it’s better than use 5 elseif’s.

local tool = script.Parent
local handle = tool.Handle
local activateCount = 0

tool.Activated:Connect(function()
	activateCount += 1
	for _, Child in ipairs(handle:GetChildren()) do
		if Child.Name:match("^Scroll"..activateCount) then
			Child.Transparency = 1
		end
	end
end)
