Is not a valid member issue

Help and Feedback Scripting Support

There have been a lot of posts about is not a valid member errors, and a good amount of them have not been solved. Soooo hopefully we can solve this one. I have a script that is supposed to pop up a gui and animate text. The gui pops up when the proximity prompt fires but then i get this error:

typeWrite is not a valid member of ModuleScript "ReplicatedStorage.AnimateUI"

Typewrite is a valid member because I have a script just like this one but instead of a proximity prompt it is a click detector script and it works just fine!

This is the script located inside a proximity prompt which is inside a character model.



local AnimateUI = game.ReplicatedStorage:FindFirstChild("AnimateUI")



script.Parent.Triggered:Connect(function(player)
	print(player)
	local label = player.PlayerGui:WaitForChild("ChatSystem").Frame.Frame.TextLabel

	local gui = player.PlayerGui:WaitForChild("ChatSystem")

	gui.Enabled = true

	local message = [[Hi!]]
	AnimateUI.typeWrite(label, message, 0.05)

	wait(1)
	gui.Enabled = false


end)

I guess AnimateUI is a module, no? To access its content you have to use require.

local AnimateUI = require(game.ReplicatedStorage:FindFirstChild("AnimateUI"))
