I need help with scripting Screen Gui element in obby!

Help and Feedback Scripting Support
#1

I am making myself a Difficulty Chart Obby and I have faced an issue. I want arrows at the top of the screen to go back and forth throughout the stages you already unlocked. This may be helpful for you to know but I have a model in workspace holding all the checkpoints named by number (1, 2, 3, etc.). I have a slight understanding of how it might work but I don’t know how to script it. I am new to scripting and Roblox itself. I started in 2020!

Here is a game with what I want (look up on the screen): Arenoir's Difficulty Chart Obby - Roblox?

I haven’t found any unless I have been searching the wrong things. If you find a link on YouTube or something, please tell me the link so I can go check it out.

#4

From TwinPlayzDev_YT if you’re unsure.

#6

Can you possibly send the link to the topic or video you are talking about?

#8

That’s just the YouTube link. Do you have the specific video link?

#10

So basically you want to have a forward arrow and backward arrow to teleport you to the next stage or stage before?

#11

Yes, and only with the stages you’ve reached/unlocked.

#12

I would suggest using RunService, to update the arrow CFrame every time that the player unlocks a new stage.

local RunService = game:GetService("RunService");

RunService.RenderStepped:Connect(function()
     --> Here would be your code, to update the Arrow CFrame to the current Stage pad.
end)
#13

I don’t know what RunService is, can you give me a brief description please?

#14

just make a NumberValue that changes when you press it like this:
this generates the NumberValue

game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(plr)
local NumberValue = instance.new("NumberValue")
NumberValue.Value = 1
NumerValue.Name = "StageSelect"
NumberValue.Parent = plr
local NumberValue2 = instance.new("NumberValue")
NumberValue2.Value = 1
NumerValue2.Name = "Stages"
NumberValue2.Parent = plr
end)

and this is for changing it (Make this a local script and place it in the Button):

local plr = game.Players.LocalPlayer
script.Parent.MouseButton1Click:Connect(function()
if plr:FindFirstChild("StageSelect").Value <= plr:FindFirstChild("Stages").Value then
plr.StageSelect.Value = plr.StageSelect.Value + 1 --you can also do minus if its the backwards button.
end

end)

if you need more help just message me
