Transparency Change Not Working?

Help and Feedback Scripting Support

#1

I’ve been trying to make it so that whenever there is a specific item added into the players collected folder. A GUI goes from transparency 1 to 0.75, However it doesn’t work. but when i try to do the opposite (Change the transparency from 0.75 to 1) It works.

This isn’t the entire script but heres the part of the script I’m having problems with

if oxiansCollected:FindFirstChild(itemName) then
		Itembutton.collected.BackgroundTransparency = 0.75
	else
		Itembutton.collected.BackgroundTransparency = 1
	end
#2

Do this:

if oxiansCollected:FindFirstChild("itemName") then
		Itembutton.collected.BackgroundTransparency = 0.75
	else
		Itembutton.collected.BackgroundTransparency = 1
	end

It could work, or the opposite.
I mean, what’s your full script?

Also, there’s an issue when I try to open the frame, it errors, I mean warn.

Infinite yield possible on 'Players.kdopdaux1803:WaitForChild(“oxiansCollected”)

This should be a simple fix.

add another script with the same code but reverse the if statement so the chunk in the else is now in the if, and the chunk in the if is now in the else.

U can reverse the if statement in two different scripts if everything else you tried didn’t work
