How To MAKE A Tycoon Game in Roblox Studio | Part 5 - Buttons!

Please make sure you do not put spaces in the names of your items inside your Purchased Items folder.

Main Script:

local buttons = tycoon:FindFirstChild("Buttons")
local purchasedItems = tycoon:FindFirstChild("PurchasedItems")

local objects = {}

if buttons then
for i, v in pairs(buttons:GetChildren()) do
spawn(function()
if v:FindFirstChild("Button") then

local newObject = purchasedItems:FindFirstChild(v.Object.Value)
if newObject ~= nil then
objects[newObject.Name] = newObject:Clone()
newObject:Destroy()
else
v:Destroy()
end

if v:FindFirstChild("Dependency") then
v.Button.Transparency = 1
v.Button.CanCollide = false
v.Button.BillboardGui.Enabled = false
coroutine.resume(coroutine.create(function()
if purchasedItems:WaitForChild(v.Dependency.Value) then
v.Button.Transparency = 0
v.Button.CanCollide = true
v.Button.BillboardGui.Enabled = true
end
end))
end

v.Button.Touched:Connect(function(hit)
local player = game.Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(hit.Parent)
if player then
if values.OwnerValue.Value == player then
if v.Button.CanCollide == true then
if player:FindFirstChild("leaderstats").Cash.Value >= v.Price.Value then
player.leaderstats.Cash.Value -= v.Price.Value
objects[v.Object.Value].Parent = purchasedItems
v:Destroy()
end
end
end
end
end)
end
end)
end
end


Script inside of buttons:

local ownerValue = script.Parent.Parent.Parent.Parent.Values.OwnerValue

ownerValue.Changed:Connect(function()
if ownerValue.Value then
local player = ownerValue.Value
while wait(0.1) do
if player:FindFirstChild("leaderstats").Cash.Value >= script.Parent.Parent.Price.Value then
script.Parent.BrickColor = BrickColor.new("Lime green")
else
script.Parent.BrickColor = BrickColor.new("Really red")
end
end
end
end)

i got an error: Button is not a valid member of Model "DropperButton" - Server - Core:37
then the buttons just desapeared...

Hello, I'm having a small hiccup in my code and I would like to know if there is anybody who could help me! It would mean a lot, thank you.

My main problem I'm having is: the first dropper button appears, but when stepping upon it, the dropper also appears. But then, the colorizer button doesn't show up, and I don't think the colorizer would even show up in the workspace.

If anyone needs my code pasted or anything, I will gladly paste it here.

For me i have an error Button is not a valid member of Model "DropperButton" - Server - Core:50 in the second button, because of the error the button doesnt show up

Having trouble again, when I step on the first button, it works but the second one doesn’t appear.

why is it when i start the game the colorizer button shows before i touched the dropper button?

Dosent duplicate the button dosent change color 😢

I don’t know what I did wrong but every time I touch the Dropper 1 button it says that Workspace.Tycoons.Tycoon.Script.core:55: attempt to index nil with ‘Cash’ can someone help me please.

Im not sure where i went wrong but the second button doesnt turn green even when the CashValue inside my tycoon reaches above the amount i set it to

Thanks bro

can you have 2 different parts on a button? a base and the button

Is The part where u need to make the material and colourchanger nececerrely for this Episode?

Core Script:

local tycoon = script.Parent.Parent

local mainItems = tycoon:FindFirstChild("MainItems")
local values = tycoon:FindFirstChild("Values")

local buttons = tycoon:FindFirstChild("Buttons")
local purchasedItems = tycoon:FindFirstChild("PurchasedItems")

local objects = {}

mainItems.OwnerDoor.Door.Touched:Connect(function(hit)
if values.OwnerValue.Value == nil then
local player = game.Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(hit.Parent)
if player then
if player:FindFirstChild("HasTycoon").Value == false then
values.OwnerValue.Value = player
mainItems.OwnerDoor.Title.SurfaceGui.TextLabel.Text = tostring(values.OwnerValue.Value).."'s Tycoon"
end
end
end
end)


if buttons then
for i, v in pairs(buttons:GetChildren()) do
spawn(function()
if v:FindFirstChild("Button") then

local newObject = purchasedItems:FindFirstChild(v.Object.Value)
if newObject ~= nil then
objects[newObject.Name] = newObject:Clone()
newObject:Destroy()
else
v:Destroy()
end

if v:FindFirstChild("Dependency") then
v.Button.Transparency = 1
v.Button.CanCollide = false
v.Button.BillboardGui.Enabled = false
coroutine.resume(coroutine.create(function()
if purchasedItems:WaitForChild(v.Dependency.Value) then
v.Button.Transparency = 0
v.Button.CanCollide = true
v.Button.BillboardGui.Enabled = true
end
end))
end

v.Button.Touched:Connect(function(hit)
local player = game.Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(hit.Parent)
if player then
if values.OwnerValue.Value == player then
if v.Button.CanCollide == true then
if player:FindFirstChild("leaderstats").Cash.Value >= v.Price.Value then
player.leaderstats.Cash.Value -= v.Price.Value
objects[v.Object.Value].Parent = purchasedItems
v:Destroy()
end
end
end
end
end)
end
end)
end
end

Okay, so basically I found out where my error was coming from. It was after we checked to see if newObject was nil or not (when we destroy v after the else), and I'm not too sure why its throwing me this error.

Infinite yield possible on 'Workspace.Tycoons.Tycoon.PurchasedItems:WaitForChild("Dropper")'

????

Please help me, he writes an error - Workspace.Tycoons.Tycoon.Scripts.Core:29: attempt to index nil with 'FindFirstChild'

i get an error infinite yield possible for dropper?

hey i have a problem with my buttons the colorizer button dosent dissapear and it dosent work when i try to buy it even if i have the right amount of money can you help me ?

i get the error message "Object is not a valid member of Model "DropperButton" - Server - Core:181" and i did everything in the vid how can I fix it?

I get the error message "exception while signaling: Must be a LuaSourceContainer - Studio" after buying my first dropper and the one i cant afford isnt red its just white even tho i copied it so it'd be red

it says "Cash is not a valid member of Folder "Players.Ninjaboygg1.leaderstats"
how do i fix?

Hey there! Dont know if im a bit late, but when making a new button it works perfectly fine, yet when it gets touched once, it removes the cash, and if you like walk over it it detects multiple touches, so it takes the price away from you multiple times. the cooldown (while wait do) doesnt help at all in this case.

Whenever you step on button for too long, (or walk on it) since the button destroys after it takes away the cash, it takes away more money then always. It quickly runs out. Any fixes? This affects the game so much as the player will spend more money unknowingly.

There is an error that i tried to fix but i couldnt . The error in the output says : Button is not a valid member of Model "ColorizerButton"

The tutorial was great but I have some issues :P
It said : Infinite yield possible on 'Workspace.Tycoons.Tycoon.PurchasedItems:WaitForChild("Dropper")'
Which I don't understand what it means

here's the script :

local tycoon = script.Parent.Parent

local mainItems = tycoon:WaitForChild("MainItems")
local values = tycoon:WaitForChild("Values")

local buttons = tycoon:FindFirstChild("Buttons")
local purchasedItems = tycoon:FindFirstChild("PurchasedItems")

local objects = {}

if buttons then
for i, v in pairs(buttons:GetChildren()) do
spawn(function()
if v:FindFirstChild("Button") then

local newObject = purchasedItems:FindFirstChild(v.Object.Value)
if newObject ~= nil then
objects[newObject.Name] = newObject:Clone()
newObject:Destroy()
else
v:Destroy()
end

if v:FindFirstChild("Dependency") then
v.Button.Transparency = 1
v.Button.CanCollide = false
v.Button.BillboardGui.Enabled = false
coroutine.resume(coroutine.create(function()
if purchasedItems:WaitForChild(v.Dependency.Value) then
v.Button.Transparency = 0
v.Button.CanCollide = true
v.Button.BillboardGui.Enabled = true
end
end))
end

v.Button.Touched:Connect(function(hit)
local player = game.Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(hit.Parent)
if player then
if values.OwnerValue.Value == player then
if v.Button.CanCollide == true then
if player:FindFirstChild("leaderstats").Cash.Value >= v.Price.Value then
player.leaderstats.Cash.Value -= v.Price.Value
objects[v.Object.Value].Parent = purchasedItems
v:Destroy()
end
end
end
end
end)
end
end)
end
end



Please answer :D

Hey guys i made the code working for now. CODE:
if buttons then
for i, v in pairs(buttons:GetChildren())do
spawn(function()
if v:FindFirstChild("Button") then

local newObject = purchasedItems:FindFirstChild(v.Object.Value)
if newObject ~= nil then
objects[newObject.Name] = newObject:Clone()
newObject:Destroy()
else
v:Destroy()
end

if v:FindFirstChild("Dependency") then
v.Button.Transparency = 1
v.Button.CanCollide = false
coroutine.resume(coroutine.create(function()
if purchasedItems:WaitForChild(v.Dependency.Value) then
v.Button.Transparency = 0
v.Button.CanCollide = true
end
end))
end

v.Button.Touched:Connect(function(hit)
local player = game.Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(hit.Parent)
if player then
if values.OwnerValue.Value == player then
if v.Button.CanCollide == true then
if player:FindFirstChild("leaderstats").Cash.Value >= v.Price.Value then
player.leaderstats.Cash.Value -= v.Price.Value
objects[v.Object.Value].Parent = purchasedItems
v:Destroy()
end
end
end
end
end)
end
end)
end
end
