Why is it not working when I make a script to turn the bool value on?
It is a very simples script, I don't know if I am missing some rules..
1 | local dark = game.Workspace.Dark.Value |
2 | local light = script.Parent:FindFirstChild("Sector 1 Light") |
3 |
4 | if dark == true then |
5 | light.BrickColor = BrickColor.new("Really black") |
6 |
7 | end |
the game.Workspace.Dark is a bool value that I have in the workspace. I made a script inside it telling it to immediately go to true, but the script right here that you are seeing is in a light. This light is not changing brickcolors.

Light doesn’t take a brick color. Try changing the time . eyad27 8 — 4y

Hello.
The problem with your script is that the if statement would only run once and end the script.
To fix this, you must connect the dark value to a Changed event. It will fire whenever its value is changed.
Also, I removed the .Value in the dark variable as the variable stores a boolean from the start of the game.
Anyways, here's your fixed script:
1 | local dark = game.Workspace.Dark |
2 | local light = script.Parent:FindFirstChild("Sector 1 Light") |
3 |
4 | dark.Changed:Connect(function() |
5 | if dark.Value == true then |
6 | light.BrickColor = BrickColor.new("Really black") |
7 | end |
8 | end) |
I hope this helps, cheers!
