Hello!

I wanna make a “Guess the word!” Type of game. But the script i made doesn’t work
the script is meant to do this: grab a random word, check if that word is put in the textbox and if it is make the text label with the chosen word visible

local words = {"banana","chocolate","bread","yogurth","food","ice cream"} -- The words
local label = script.Parent.TextLabel
local ChoosenWord = words[math.random(1,#words)] --The word that was chosen out of the words
local TextBox = script.Parent.TextBox
label.Text = ChoosenWord

print("The word is "..ChoosenWord.."!") --Prints the chossen word
 
if TextBox.Text == ChoosenWord then
	label.Visible = true
end

Also, here how the screen gui looks

Is this what you mean?
Also, did you mean to put ChosenWord instead of ChoosenWord and chossen word?

if tostring(ChoosenWord) == script.Parent.TextBox.Text then
	print("The word is "..ChoosenWord.."!")
end

just a typo haha, This isnt what i mean. I want to know if the chosen word is put on the textbox and make the textlabel visible. But that’s the part that doesn’t work. But thanks for the response!

Its happening under 1 sec. How could the Player put the correct Name into the Textbox if the word is choosen directly and is checking directly if the Text is in the Box.


local words = {"banana","chocolate","bread","yogurth","food","ice cream"} -- The words
local label = script.Parent.TextLabel
local TextBox = script.Parent.TextBox
 
Example.MouseButton1Click:Connect(function()

 local ChoosenWord = words[math.random(1,#words)] --The word that was chosen out of the words
 print("The word is "..ChoosenWord.."!") --Prints the chossen word

wait(10) -- Player has 10 sec to enter the correct Word.
  
 if TextBox.Text == tostring(ChoosenWord) then
	label.Visible = true
 end

end)



A remind: This is the Client if u make this Work for all Players u should send RemoteEvents to the Server and make it there, if u dont know how to make it tell me

The Script is happening directly, the If Statement will not fire another Time.

That was a example, put this all in your Script, before add a TextButton and u are ready to go. After clicking the Button u have 20 sec Time to enter your answer.

local words = {"banana","chocolate","bread","yogurth","food","ice cream"} -- The words
local label = script.Parent.TextLabel
local TextBox = script.Parent.TextBox

script.Parent.TextButton.MouseButton1Click:Connect(function()

	local ChoosenWord = words[math.random(1,#words)] --The word that was chosen out of the words
	print("The word is "..ChoosenWord.."!") --Prints the chossen word
	
	wait(20) -- Player has 10 sec to enter the correct Word.

	if TextBox.Text == tostring(ChoosenWord) then
		label.Visible = true
		print("The Word is right")
end
	
end)
