Part only changes transparency SOMETIMES

I’m making a tycoon game and I’m trying to make a function that turns all the bought stuff visible after they are bought by the button. For some reason this works, but sometimes it just randomly doesn’t, and I have been trying to find out why for about 3 hours. If anyone can help, please do. Thanks!

Script Context:
Unlocks is a folder that the button unlocks when bought
This script is in ServerScriptService and gets all buttons tagged as Button
