How would i stop this loop at a certain part count?

Asked 257 views1 answers

I'm also wanting to make it continue under that part count, but I just don't know how. Please help!

local Region = game.workspace.Region

local Rep = game:GetService("ReplicatedStorage")
local Mine = game.ReplicatedStorage.LandMine

local x = Region.Position.x
local z = Region.Position.Z


local xS = Region.Size.X/2
local xZ = Region.Size.Z/2




while true do
		local newmine = Mine:Clone()
		newmine.Parent = workspace
		local pos1 = math.random(x-xS,x+xS)
	    local pos2 = math.random(z-xZ,z+xZ)
		newmine.Position = Vector3.new(pos1,0.2,pos2)
		wait(1)
end

Make a folder for the LandMines,

Make a folder for the Land Mines, this depends whether your landmines are models: local i = 0 for _,v in pairs(workspace:GetDescendants()) do if v:IsA('BasePart') then -- change BasePart to Model if the landmines r models. i = i + 1 end end print(i)

Howdy!

There are many ways, such as using the break feature or simply setting the loop to run under certain circumstance. Here is an example of using the certain circumstance way.

local MineCount = 0

while MineCount > 20 do
	local newmine = Mine:Clone()
	newmine.Parent = workspace
	MineCount = Minecount + 1
	local pos1 = math.random(x-xS,x+xS)
	local pos2 = math.random(z-xZ,z+xZ)
	newmine.Position = Vector3.new(pos1,0.2,pos2)
	wait(1)
end

This would continue until you hit 20, where it will then stop running.
