Touch part for GUI (Solved)

theonlyplasa · August 3, 2022, 1:29pm

So basically I want like to know from when a player touches a part a GUI only appears once and after that the script disables but only for the client, like only the player who touched the part, and I want to do when you touch the part again the GUI doesn’t pop up and when u rejoin and touch the part, the GUI doesn’t pop up too.

Here is a simple example/idea:

--Local script
local Players = game:GetService("Players")
local Replicated = game:GetService("ReplicatedStorage")

local Player = Players.LocalPlayer
local Part = workspace:WaitForChild("Baseplate")
local Debounce = false

Part.Touched:Connect(function(Object)
	if not Object.Parent:FindFirstChild("Humanoid") and not Players:FindFirstChild(Object.Parent.Name) then return end
	local real = Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(Object.Parent)
	if Debounce == false then
		Debounce = true
		if real == Player then
			Replicated:WaitForChild("SendData"):FireServer()
		end
		task.wait(3)
		Debounce = false
	end
end)

--Server Script
local Players = game:GetService("Players")
local Replicated = game:GetService("ReplicatedStorage")
local DataStore = game:GetService("DataStoreService")


Replicated:FindFirstChild("SendData").OnServerEvent:Connect(function(Player)
	--Clone a GUI here, parent it to Player.PlayerGui, and set the player datastore.
	
end)

Example:
You would want to use a RemoteEvent because RE’s can communicate between separate scripts using certain events. Put the RemoteEvent under ReplicatedStorage . Make sure to make a GUI and put it in StarterGui, change enabled to false

local ReplicatedStorage = game:GetService("ReplicatedStorage")
local RE = ReplicatedStorage:WaitForChild("RemoteEvent")

script.Parent.Touched:Connect(function(touched)
	if game.Players:FindFirstChild(touched.Parent.Name) then
		local player = game.Players:FindFirstChild(touched.Parent.Name)
		RE:FireClient(player)
	end
end)

Basically just ensuring that whatever touched the part is an actual player, if it is an actual player it will fire the RemoteEvent.

Do the following in a LOCAL SCRIPT and put it in anywhere that is appropriate to be a parent of a local script, EX: StarterPack, StarterPlayerScripts, etc. Just don’t put it in ServerScriptService.

local ReplicatedStorage = game:GetService("ReplicatedStorage")
local RE = ReplicatedStorage:WaitForChild("RemoteEvent")
local StarterGui = game:GetService("StarterGui")
local gui = StarterGui:WaitForChild("yourGuiHere")

RE.OnClientEvent:Connect(function(player)
	gui.Enabled = true
end)

Hope this helps!

The following will work even when the player leaves in the same server.
1 . Create a RemoteEvent in ReplicatedStorage and name it Client
2 . Change the path of the variable Gui in the localscript to your gui path.
ServerScript :

--\\Variables//--
local PlayersTable = {}
local RemoteEvent = game.ReplicatedStorage.Client
local Part = game.Workspace.YourPart
--\\Main Code//--
Part.Touched:Connect(function(hit)
if not hit.Parent:FindFirstChild("Humanoid") then return end
local plr = game.Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(hit.Parent)
if table.find(PlayersTable,plr.Name) then return end -- Checks if the player already touched the part before
table.insert(PlayersTable,plr.Name)
Client:FireClient(plr)
end)

LocalScript :

local RemoteEvent = game.ReplicatedStorage.Client
local plr = game.Players.LocalPlayer
RemoteEvent.OnClientEvent:Connect(function()
local Gui = plr.PlayerGui
plr.PlayerGui.YourGui.Frame.Visible = true
wait(4)
plr.PlayerGui.YourGui.Frame.Visible = false
end)

@ayoub50
@Mikixxx0
@Valkyrop

Popup = script.Parent.ScreenGui
Ready = false
function onTouch(hit)
local h = hit.Parent:FindFirstChild(“Humanoid”)
if not Ready then
Ready = true
local plyr = game.Players:FindFirstChild(h.Parent.Name)
local c = Popup:clone()
c.Parent = plyr.PlayerGui
wait(3)
c:remove()
wait(4)
script.Disabled = true
end
end

script.Parent.Touched:connect(onTouch)

I have that and I just wanna know if y’all can like change anything in it I put my gui in my part but this only works once but when u rejoin u see it so

Server Script

local ReplicatedStorage = game:GetService("ReplicatedStorage")
local RE = ReplicatedStorage:WaitForChild("RemoteEvent")

script.Parent.Touched:Connect(function(touched)
	if game.Players:FindFirstChild(touched.Parent.Name) then
		local player = game.Players:FindFirstChild(touched.Parent.Name)
		RE:FireClient(player)
	end
end)

Put in StarterPlayerScripts

local ReplicatedStorage = game:GetService("ReplicatedStorage")
local RE = ReplicatedStorage:WaitForChild("RemoteEvent")
local StarterGui = game:GetService("StarterGui")
local gui = StarterGui:WaitForChild("yourGuiHere")
local Used = false

RE.OnClientEvent:Connect(function(player)
    Used = true
	gui.Enabled = true
end)

What do you mean by that? I’m like new to scripting

ayoub50 · August 3, 2022, 1:58pm

no, that will not work when the player leaves.

Mikixxx0 · August 3, 2022, 1:59pm

Hmm but it worked in my game O_O

ayoub50 · August 3, 2022, 2:00pm

The following will work even when the player leaves.
1 . Create a RemoteEvent in ReplicatedStorage and name it Client
2 . Make a Script and put it in ServerScriptService
Server Script :

--\\Variables//--
local PlayersTable = {}
local RemoteEvent = game.ReplicatedStorage.Client
local Part = game.Workspace.YourPart
--\\Main Code//--
Part.Touched:Connect(function(hit)
if not hit.Parent:FindFirstChild("Humanoid") then return end
local plr = game.Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(hit.Parent)
if table.find(PlayersTable,plr.Name) then return end -- Checks if the player already touched the part before
table.insert(PlayersTable,plr.Name)
Client:FireClient(plr)
end)

3 . Make a localscript and put it in StarterCharacterScripts.

local RemoteEvent = game.ReplicatedStorage.Client
local plr = game.Players.LocalPlayer
RemoteEvent.OnClientEvent:Connect(function()
local Popup = game.StarterGui.ScreenGui
Popup:Clone().Parent = plr.PlayerGui
wait(4)
Popup:Destroy()
end)

The thing is per each part I want it to show different like text on the gui

theonlyplasa · August 3, 2022, 2:02pm

Does it like work for per each part there is a different textlabel?

ayoub50 · August 3, 2022, 2:03pm

if you want it for each part why don’t you just delete the whole part for the client.

Mikixxx0 · August 3, 2022, 2:03pm

You said that you want the gui to appear and not a text label

theonlyplasa · August 3, 2022, 2:04pm

I’m making a obby, when you complete a stage it says for example on stage 22 “You completed stage 22” but I hate like each time when I join it keeps saying that, so I don’t know

theonlyplasa · August 3, 2022, 2:04pm

ye a gui and in the gui there is a textlabel

ayoub50 · August 3, 2022, 2:07pm

in this case you would need to use datastore.
but you don’t really need all of this
since you can already fix that in the stage script.

if Player.Stage.Value > CurrentCheckPoint.Value then
-- Show Text
end

theonlyplasa · August 3, 2022, 2:08pm

I already have a datastore to save it, I only like to need to fix the GUI, If you want to help. I’m not forcing you. I’m just kinda new to scripting so I’m like confused.

ayoub50 · August 3, 2022, 2:09pm

as i said in your checkpoint or stages script
you probably have an if statement to check if the Player’s CurrentStage & His current checkpoint are equal

theonlyplasa · August 3, 2022, 2:11pm

This is my stages script:

local checkpoints = workspace:WaitForChild(“Checkpoints”)

game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(player)
local leaderstats = Instance.new(“Folder”)
leaderstats.Name = “leaderstats”
leaderstats.Parent = player

local stage = Instance.new("IntValue")
stage.Name = "Stage"
stage.Value = 1
stage.Parent = leaderstats

player.CharacterAdded:Connect(function(char)
	local hum = char:WaitForChild("Humanoid")
	wait()
	char:MoveTo(checkpoints[stage.Value].Position)

	hum.Touched:Connect(function(hit)
		if hit.Parent == checkpoints then
			if tonumber(hit.Name) == stage.Value + 1 then
				stage.Value = stage.Value + 1
			end
		end
	end)
end)

end)

and this is my datastore script:

local DataStoreService = game:GetService(“DataStoreService”)
local myDataStore = DataStoreService:GetDataStore(“Stage”)

game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(player)
local data
local success, errorMessage = pcall(function()
data = myDataStore:GetAsync(player.UserId)
end)

if success then
	player.leaderstats.Stage.Value = data
else
	warn(errorMessage)
end

end)

game.Players.PlayerRemoving:Connect(function(player)
local data
local success, errorMessage = pcall(function()
data = myDataStore:SetAsync(player.UserId, player.leaderstats.Stage.Value)
end)

if success then
	print("Data Saved")
else
	warn(errorMessage)
end

end)

game:BindToClose(function()
for i, v in pairs(game.Players:GetChildren()) do
v:Kick(“Server Closed”)
end

wait(2)

end)
