Need help with ideas on where/how to disable gui within structure of my script

I’ve basically figured out the great majority of my script, it all works just fine. I can’t seem to figure out how to go about disabling the gui again. I know that I would just set it to enabled = false. However, I am not sure where in my script I would go about doing that, or if the logic allows it?


local playersService = game:GetService("Players")
local teams = game:GetService("Teams")
local teamBloods = teams.Bloods:GetPlayers()
local pole1 = game.Workspace.Point1.pole1
local pole2 = game.Workspace.Point2.pole2
local pole3 = game.Workspace.Point3.pole3

while true do
	local playerPoints = 0
	local players = playersService:GetPlayers()
	local teamCrips = teams.Crips:GetPlayers()
	local teamBloods = teams.Bloods:GetPlayers()
	for i, v in pairs(teamCrips)do
		playerPoints = playerPoints + v.leaderstats.Points.Value
		if playerPoints >= 1000 then
			for i, v in pairs(players)do
				v.PlayerGui.ScreenGui2.TextLabel.Text = ("Crips have won")
				v.PlayerGui.ScreenGui2.Enabled = true
				v.leaderstats.Points.Value = 0
				v.PlayerGui.ScreenGui.PointsDisplay.PointsCrips.Text = 0
				v.PlayerGui.ScreenGui.PointsDisplay.PointsBloods.Text = 0			
				pole1.BrickColor = BrickColor.new("Medium stone grey")
				pole2.BrickColor = BrickColor.new("Medium stone grey")
				pole3.BrickColor = BrickColor.new("Medium stone grey")
			end
		end
	end
	for i, v in pairs(teamBloods)do
		playerPoints = playerPoints + v.leaderstats.Points.Value
		if playerPoints >= 1000 then
			for i, v in pairs(players)do
				v.PlayerGui.ScreenGui2.TextLabel.Text = ("Bloods have won")
				v.PlayerGui.ScreenGui2.Enabled = true
				v.leaderstats.Points.Value = 0
				v.PlayerGui.ScreenGui.PointsDisplay.PointsCrips.Text = 0
				v.PlayerGui.ScreenGui.PointsDisplay.PointsBloods.Text = 0			
				pole1.BrickColor = BrickColor.new("Medium stone grey")
				pole2.BrickColor = BrickColor.new("Medium stone grey")
				pole3.BrickColor = BrickColor.new("Medium stone grey")
			end
		end
	end
	wait(1)
end

I am a bit stumped because I don’t think that I could put Enabled = false within a for i, v in pairs loop because then the wait() wouldn’t work?

From my understanding of the code I think they would go here

local playersService = game:GetService("Players")
local teams = game:GetService("Teams")
local pole1 = game.Workspace.Point1.pole1
local pole2 = game.Workspace.Point2.pole2
local pole3 = game.Workspace.Point3.pole3

while true do
	local playerPoints = 0
	local players = playersService:GetPlayers()
	local teamCrips = teams.Crips:GetPlayers()
	local teamBloods = teams.Bloods:GetPlayers()
	for i, v in pairs(teamCrips)do
		playerPoints = playerPoints + v.leaderstats.Points.Value
		if playerPoints >= 1000 then
			for i, v in pairs(players)do
				v.PlayerGui.ScreenGui2.TextLabel.Text = ("Crips have won")
				v.PlayerGui.ScreenGui2.Enabled = true
				v.leaderstats.Points.Value = 0
				v.PlayerGui.ScreenGui.PointsDisplay.PointsCrips.Text = 0
				v.PlayerGui.ScreenGui.PointsDisplay.PointsBloods.Text = 0			
				pole1.BrickColor = BrickColor.new("Medium stone grey")
				pole2.BrickColor = BrickColor.new("Medium stone grey")
				pole3.BrickColor = BrickColor.new("Medium stone grey")
			end
            -- disable gui here
		end
	end
	for i, v in pairs(teamBloods)do
		playerPoints = playerPoints + v.leaderstats.Points.Value
		if playerPoints >= 1000 then
			for i, v in pairs(players)do
				v.PlayerGui.ScreenGui2.TextLabel.Text = ("Bloods have won")
				v.PlayerGui.ScreenGui2.Enabled = true
				v.leaderstats.Points.Value = 0
				v.PlayerGui.ScreenGui.PointsDisplay.PointsCrips.Text = 0
				v.PlayerGui.ScreenGui.PointsDisplay.PointsBloods.Text = 0			
				pole1.BrickColor = BrickColor.new("Medium stone grey")
				pole2.BrickColor = BrickColor.new("Medium stone grey")
				pole3.BrickColor = BrickColor.new("Medium stone grey")
			end
            -- disable gui here
		end
	end
	wait(1)

That’s genius, I think that would work, thank you. Let me go try it.

I did this and it still does not work, though it looked like the logic was right, odd. Maybe it’s because it is firing before the GUI has been enabled, but I’m again not sure how to add a wait to that and it work. I tried adding a wait and it didn’t help anything.


local playersService = game:GetService("Players")
local teams = game:GetService("Teams")
local teamBloods = teams.Bloods:GetPlayers()
local pole1 = game.Workspace.Point1.pole1
local pole2 = game.Workspace.Point2.pole2
local pole3 = game.Workspace.Point3.pole3

while true do
	local playerPoints = 0
	local players = playersService:GetPlayers()
	local teamCrips = teams.Crips:GetPlayers()
	local teamBloods = teams.Bloods:GetPlayers()
	for i, v in pairs(teamCrips)do
		playerPoints = playerPoints + v.leaderstats.Points.Value
		if playerPoints >= 1000 then
			for i, v in pairs(players)do
				v.PlayerGui.ScreenGui2.TextLabel.Text = ("Crips have won")
				v.PlayerGui.ScreenGui2.Enabled = true
				v.leaderstats.Points.Value = 0
				v.PlayerGui.ScreenGui.PointsDisplay.PointsCrips.Text = 0
				v.PlayerGui.ScreenGui.PointsDisplay.PointsBloods.Text = 0			
				pole1.BrickColor = BrickColor.new("Medium stone grey")
				pole2.BrickColor = BrickColor.new("Medium stone grey")
				pole3.BrickColor = BrickColor.new("Medium stone grey")
			end
			v.PlayerGui.ScreenGui2.Enabled = false
		end
	end
	for i, v in pairs(teamBloods)do
		playerPoints = playerPoints + v.leaderstats.Points.Value
		if playerPoints >= 1000 then
			for i, v in pairs(players)do
				v.PlayerGui.ScreenGui2.TextLabel.Text = ("Bloods have won")
				v.PlayerGui.ScreenGui2.Enabled = true
				v.leaderstats.Points.Value = 0
				v.PlayerGui.ScreenGui.PointsDisplay.PointsCrips.Text = 0
				v.PlayerGui.ScreenGui.PointsDisplay.PointsBloods.Text = 0			
				pole1.BrickColor = BrickColor.new("Medium stone grey")
				pole2.BrickColor = BrickColor.new("Medium stone grey")
				pole3.BrickColor = BrickColor.new("Medium stone grey")
			end
			v.PlayerGui.ScreenGui2.Enabled = false
		end
	end
	wait(1)
end

Try:

    local playersService = game:GetService("Players")
local teams = game:GetService("Teams")
local teamBloods = teams.Bloods:GetPlayers()
local pole1 = game.Workspace.Point1.pole1
local pole2 = game.Workspace.Point2.pole2
local pole3 = game.Workspace.Point3.pole3

while true do
	local playerPoints = 0
	local players = playersService:GetPlayers()
	local teamCrips = teams.Crips:GetPlayers()
	local teamBloods = teams.Bloods:GetPlayers()
	for i, v in pairs(teamCrips)do
		playerPoints = playerPoints + v.leaderstats.Points.Value
		if playerPoints >= 1000 then
			for i, v in pairs(players)do
				v.PlayerGui.ScreenGui2.TextLabel.Text = ("Crips have won")
				v.PlayerGui.ScreenGui2.Enabled = true
				v.leaderstats.Points.Value = 0
				v.PlayerGui.ScreenGui.PointsDisplay.PointsCrips.Text = 0
				v.PlayerGui.ScreenGui.PointsDisplay.PointsBloods.Text = 0			
				pole1.BrickColor = BrickColor.new("Medium stone grey")
				pole2.BrickColor = BrickColor.new("Medium stone grey")
				pole3.BrickColor = BrickColor.new("Medium stone grey")
			end
		end
	end
	for i, v in pairs(teamBloods)do
		playerPoints = playerPoints + v.leaderstats.Points.Value
		if playerPoints >= 1000 then
			for i, v in pairs(players)do
				v.PlayerGui.ScreenGui2.TextLabel.Text = ("Bloods have won")
				v.PlayerGui.ScreenGui2.Enabled = true
				v.leaderstats.Points.Value = 0
				v.PlayerGui.ScreenGui.PointsDisplay.PointsCrips.Text = 0
				v.PlayerGui.ScreenGui.PointsDisplay.PointsBloods.Text = 0			
				pole1.BrickColor = BrickColor.new("Medium stone grey")
				pole2.BrickColor = BrickColor.new("Medium stone grey")
				pole3.BrickColor = BrickColor.new("Medium stone grey")
			end
		end
	end
	wait(3) -- wait for some seconds
    v.PlayerGui.ScreenGui2.Enabled = false

end

Well the issue with that is that v has a nil value. That’s within the while loop but not within the for i, v in pairs() loops. Unless you’ve added in something else that I missed.

#8

Try this then:

local playersService = game:GetService("Players")
local teams = game:GetService("Teams")
local teamBloods = teams.Bloods:GetPlayers()
local pole1 = game.Workspace.Point1.pole1
local pole2 = game.Workspace.Point2.pole2
local pole3 = game.Workspace.Point3.pole3

while true do
	local playerPoints = 0
	local players = playersService:GetPlayers()
	local teamCrips = teams.Crips:GetPlayers()
	local teamBloods = teams.Bloods:GetPlayers()
	for i, v in pairs(teamCrips)do
		playerPoints = playerPoints + v.leaderstats.Points.Value
		if playerPoints >= 1000 then
			for i, v in pairs(players)do
				v.PlayerGui.ScreenGui2.TextLabel.Text = ("Crips have won")
				v.PlayerGui.ScreenGui2.Enabled = true
				v.leaderstats.Points.Value = 0
				v.PlayerGui.ScreenGui.PointsDisplay.PointsCrips.Text = 0
				v.PlayerGui.ScreenGui.PointsDisplay.PointsBloods.Text = 0			
				pole1.BrickColor = BrickColor.new("Medium stone grey")
				pole2.BrickColor = BrickColor.new("Medium stone grey")
				pole3.BrickColor = BrickColor.new("Medium stone grey")
			end
		end
	end
	for i, v in pairs(teamBloods)do
		playerPoints = playerPoints + v.leaderstats.Points.Value
		if playerPoints >= 1000 then
			for i, v in pairs(players)do
				v.PlayerGui.ScreenGui2.TextLabel.Text = ("Bloods have won")
				v.PlayerGui.ScreenGui2.Enabled = true
				v.leaderstats.Points.Value = 0
				v.PlayerGui.ScreenGui.PointsDisplay.PointsCrips.Text = 0
				v.PlayerGui.ScreenGui.PointsDisplay.PointsBloods.Text = 0			
				pole1.BrickColor = BrickColor.new("Medium stone grey")
				pole2.BrickColor = BrickColor.new("Medium stone grey")
				pole3.BrickColor = BrickColor.new("Medium stone grey")
			end
		end
	end
	wait(3)
   for i, v in pairs(players) do
         	v.PlayerGui.ScreenGui2.Enabled = false
    end

I had to change the code because, every loop you had to wait 3 seconds. (Try the new code)

I just changed the wait time to (1) and it works fine, but if I ever encounter any problems I’ll use that as a backup. Thanks.
