How to tween Billboard GUI more than Once

local EggGUI = script.EggGUI
local Frame = EggGUI.Frame
local location = game.Workspace.Eggs.EggDispenser1.Egg_Model.OuterEgg
local Container = game.Workspace.Eggs.EggDispenser1.Egg_Model.Hitbox
local studs = 30 -- The studs from the player to part increase to make gui visible from long distance
local inRange = script.inRange

local tweenService = game:GetService("TweenService")
local tweenInfo = TweenInfo.new(1, Enum.EasingStyle.Sine, Enum.EasingDirection.In)
local guiTween = tweenService:Create(Frame, tweenInfo, {Size = UDim2.new(1, 0, 0.9, 0)})
local function getDistance(part)
	
	local player = game.Players.LocalPlayer
	local char = player.Character or player.CharacterAdded:Wait()
	local humanoidRoot = char:WaitForChild("HumanoidRootPart")
	
	local distance = (part.Position - humanoidRoot.Position)
	return distance.Magnitude
end



game["Run Service"].RenderStepped:Connect(function()
	if getDistance(Container) <= studs then
		print("Done1")
		EggGUI.Enabled = true
		EggGUI.Parent = location
		guiTween:Play()
		guiTween.Completed:Wait()			
	else
		EggGUI.Enabled = false
		EggGUI.Parent = script
		print("Done2")
	end	
end)

I’ve been spending days trying to fix this code so now I’m using my last resort, the forum.
I’ve half solved the problem but let me explain what it should be doing.

First of all I’m aiming to make it so when the user is close enough to the egg it will open a Billboard GUI using a tween, in the process I also parent the Billboard GUI from the client side to the workspace so only the local player can see it.

The problem is when I go back into the required stud distance more than once it completely does not run the tween and instead just does everything else except the tweening. Basically:

1st Approach - Runs tween and GUI is visible.

Leaves the required stud distance and goes back in.

2nd Approach - Does not run tween but billboard GUI is visible.

Any help is appreciated, thanks.

Once the tween has completed you need to reset the size back to its original size otherwise there is nothing to tween on the second time as the size is already at the tweened size.

I did that before and it didn’t work. I only realized I was resetting the billboard GUI itself instead of the frame. I made sure It resets the frame now instead, Thanks!
