What is wrong with this counting script?
So I want the script to activate when someone says a number greater than 0. It should then count up, printing all of the lower numbers. For example, if I say "5", it should print this: 1 2 3 4 5
If I said 3, it should print this: 1 2 3
It isn't working at all, here is my code.
x=0
function onChatted(message, player)
if string.lower(message) >= 0 then
repeat
x = x+1
print(x)
wait(0.1)
until x == (message)
x = 0
end
end
game.Players.PlayerAdded:connect(function(player)
player.Chatted:connect(function(message) onChatted(message, player) end)
end)

You are attempting to compare a number and a string.
There is no such thing as uppercase and lowercase numbers, you do not need to call STRING.lower
Also, you don't need the player argument since you don't do anything with it(unless you later plan to implement a message for the player to see the count)
You also don't need to have x as a global variable(no local, and also outside the function,unless you plan to have other code mess with it), and you should ALWAYS define variables local(local before the variable name), it is faster.
function onChatted(message, player)
local x = 0
if message >= 0 then
repeat
x = x + 1
print(x)
wait(0.1)
until x == (message)
end
end
game.Players.PlayerAdded:connect(function(player)
player.Chatted:connect(function(message) onChatted(message, player) end)
end)
