Prompt.Triggered doesn't work

SilentDevReal · August 17, 2022, 7:09pm

What do you want to achieve? Keep it simple and clear!
I want to fix my problem with Prompt.Triggered
What is the issue? Include screenshots / videos if possible!
I don’t understand what’s the issue. There are no errors.
What solutions have you tried so far? Did you look for solutions on the Developer Hub?
I couldn’t find any solutions for that.

Try using a print in the event and see if that works. Does PassportDialogueFrame become visible?

SilentDevReal · August 17, 2022, 7:15pm

It didn’t print.

rabbi99 · August 17, 2022, 7:16pm

While testing, check if the ProximityPrompt is actually there. Let me know about results!

SomeFedoraGuy · August 17, 2022, 7:16pm

Where is the script located? Do other things work?

SilentDevReal · August 17, 2022, 7:16pm

There is…

SilentDevReal · August 17, 2022, 7:17pm

Yeah, other things work. In starter gui.

rabbi99 · August 17, 2022, 7:18pm

Could you show us your Explorer? Like, show us the workspace where your ProximityPrompt is and other necessary things.

SilentDevReal · August 17, 2022, 7:18pm

Workspace:

StarterGui:

rabbi99 · August 17, 2022, 7:19pm

Alright. Try these things:

Put a print before connecting Triggered.
Check if there are multiple parts called PassportGiverHitbox.

Let me know about results!

SilentDevReal · August 17, 2022, 7:21pm

There aren’t any other parts for the proximity prompt.

And doesn’t print.

rabbi99 · August 17, 2022, 7:23pm

If it doesn’t print, then it’s most likely a different problem than we think. This means that the code before either errors or yields (delays) the code. My guess is that

local UICorner = Button:WaitForChild("UICorner")

is causing an infinite yield and thus not allow your code to continue. Can you confirm?

SilentDevReal · August 17, 2022, 7:24pm

There’s no infinite yield… What happens if I put the functions first?

rabbi99 · August 17, 2022, 7:25pm

Defining functions earlier doesn’t make a difference. The problem here is that the script is not reaching the part where you connect your .Triggered. What you could try doing is connecting before the for-loop and see if that makes a difference:

-- Services
local Players = game:GetService("Players")
local TweenService = game:GetService("TweenService")
local MarketPlaceService = game:GetService("MarketplaceService")

-- Player
local Player = Players.LocalPlayer
local Char = Player.CharacterAdded:Wait() or Player.Character

-- Passport Dialogue Frame
local PassportDialogueFrame = script.Parent.PassportDialogue

-- Passport Dialogue Buttons
local PassportDialogueButtons = {PassportDialogueFrame.AcceptButton, PassportDialogueFrame.DeclineButton}

-- Click Sound
local ClickSound = script.Parent.ClickSound

-- Select Sound
local SelectSound = script.Parent.SelectSound

-- Prompt 
local Prompt = workspace.PassportGiverHitbox.ProximityPrompt

-- Tool
local Tool = script.Parent.Passport

local Question = "Would you like to get a passport?"
local Say2 = "Here you go..."
local Say3 = "Okay, bye..."
local QuestionLabel = PassportDialogueFrame.Question

Prompt.Triggered:Connect(function()
    PassportDialogueFrame.Visible = true
   
    for i = 1, #Question do
        QuestionLabel.Text = string.sub(Question, 1, i)
    end
    repeat wait() until QuestionLabel.Text == Question
    PassportDialogueFrame.AcceptButton.Visible = true
    PassportDialogueFrame.DeclineButton.Visible = true
end)

PassportDialogueFrame.AcceptButton.MouseButton1Click:Connect(function()
    if Player.Backpack:FindFirstChild("Passport") or Char:FindFirstChild("Passport") then
        return
    else
        local NewTool = Tool:Clone()
        NewTool.Parent = Player.Backpack
        for i = 1, #Question do
            QuestionLabel.Text = string.sub(Say3, 1, i)
        end
    end
    
    repeat wait() until QuestionLabel.Text == Say2
    PassportDialogueFrame.Visible = false
    PassportDialogueFrame.AcceptButton.Visible = false
    PassportDialogueFrame.DeclineButton.Visible = false
end)

PassportDialogueFrame.DeclineButton.MouseButton1Click:Connect(function()
    for i = 1, #Question do
        QuestionLabel.Text = string.sub(Say3, 1, i)
    end
    repeat wait() until QuestionLabel.Text == Say3
    PassportDialogueFrame.Visible = false
    PassportDialogueFrame.AcceptButton.Visible = false
    PassportDialogueFrame.DeclineButton.Visible = false
end)

for _,Button in ipairs(PassportDialogueButtons) do
    if not Button:IsA("TextButton") then continue end
    local UICorner = Button:WaitForChild("UICorner")
    local Square = TweenService:Create(UICorner,TweenInfo.new(0.1),{CornerRadius = UDim.new(0.05,0)})
    local Circle = TweenService:Create(UICorner,TweenInfo.new(0.1),{CornerRadius = UDim.new(0.5,0)})
    Circle:Play()
    Button.MouseEnter:Connect(function()
        if SelectSound.SoundId ~= nil then
            SelectSound:Play()
        end
        Button.UIStroke.Enabled = true
        Square:Play()
    end)
    Button.MouseLeave:Connect(function()
        Button.UIStroke.Enabled = false
        Circle:Play()
    end)
    Button.MouseButton1Click:Connect(function()
        if ClickSound.SoundId ~= nil then
            ClickSound:Play()
        end
    end)
end

SilentDevReal · August 17, 2022, 7:27pm

Again, didn’t work. I’ve put your script.

rabbi99 · August 17, 2022, 7:28pm

Could you at least give me more information? Like, show the output. It’s either the script doesn’t run at all or your script errors or warns.

SilentDevReal · August 17, 2022, 7:29pm

Here’s the output:

rabbi99 · August 17, 2022, 7:30pm

I am genuinely confused lol. Could you send a copy of your studio file in DM’s or here? I’ll try to figure it out from there.

SilentDevReal · August 17, 2022, 7:31pm

Well, I will only send proximity prompt system because it is not my game. I’m a developer of it.

rabbi99 · August 17, 2022, 7:37pm

One thing I noticed is this:

I’m not sure if you are aware, but it’s the other way around. Maybe that’s the fix.
