Repeat until loop doesn't seem to end, why?
Server script:
function ObjectsPlace()
for i = 1,Collected_Max.Value do -- An int value in a "values" folder in workspace
FoundA = false
repeat
for _, v in pairs(Map_Folder:GetChildren()) do
if v:IsA("Model") then
for _, area in pairs(v:GetDescendants()) do
if area:IsA("Part") and area.Name == "CTT" then
local FindHasVal = area:FindFirstChild("Has")
if FindHasVal.Value == false then --checks to see if "ObjectC" is at this "area"
local ObjectC = Instance.new("Part",Map_Folder)
ObjectC.BrickColor = BrickColor.new("Really black")
ObjectC.Anchored = true
ObjectC.CanCollide = false
ObjectC.Locked = true
ObjectC.Size = Vector3.new(0.34, 0.98, 0.95)
ObjectC.Material = Enum.Material.Granite
ObjectC.Name = "Object_Collectable"
ObjectC.CFrame = area.CFrame
FindHasVal.Value = true
FoundA = true
print("good")
else
end
end
end
end
end
wait()
until
FoundA == true
end
print("DONE LL")
end
This is just a function that's called in another line, however, in the function the repeat loop doesn't seem to end. Anyone know how or why this is happening?

So looks like FoundA never equals true. You should fix that. Which probably means that FindHasVal.Value never equals false. SethHeinzman 284 — 3y

When you run the game, you can go in explorer and find "Has" and change it's value to false to see if it stops I think. SethHeinzman 284 — 3y

@SethHeinzman "Has" is set to false by default meaning that "FindHasVal.Value" is false. Another thing is that "FoundA" equals true after "ObjectC" has been made/placed, so I don't think that's the problem here. Player1_Joined 271 — 3y

Does good print in the output? SethHeinzman 284 — 3y

@SethHeinzman Yeah, everything seems good, but I don't know why it's not ending. Player1_Joined 271 — 3y

Put until and FoundA = true on the same line OhManXDXD 445 — 3y

You could say repeat wait() until function() And make the function include the for loops and return the value of FoundA SethHeinzman 284 — 3y

repeat wait() until functionName() == true
function functionName()
for _, v in pairs(Map_Folder:GetChildren()) do
if v:IsA("Model") then
for _, area in pairs(v:GetDescendants()) do
if area:IsA("Part") and area.Name == "CTT" then
local FindHasVal = area:FindFirstChild("Has")
if FindHasVal.Value == false then --checks to see if "ObjectC" is at this "area"
local ObjectC = Instance.new("Part",Map_Folder)
ObjectC.BrickColor = BrickColor.new("Really black")
ObjectC.Anchored = true
ObjectC.CanCollide = false
ObjectC.Locked = true
ObjectC.Size = Vector3.new(0.34, 0.98, 0.95)
ObjectC.Material = Enum.Material.Granite
ObjectC.Name = "Object_Collectable"
ObjectC.CFrame = area.CFrame
FindHasVal.Value = true
print("good")
FoundA = true
return FoundA
else
end
end
end
end
return false
end
Something like that
