Fixing Ducky's script:

local bool = script.Parent.Boolvalue
local textBox = script.Parent
local text = script.Parent.Text

while bool.Value == true do
wait(1)
local text = script.Parent.Text -- Puts the text variable here so the text is updated to the current text. Putting it before the while do will not make it update
print(text)
end

alright if you want you can make a bool value and then set it to true so when you dont want it to print the text you can make it set to false

local bool = script.Parent.Boolvalue
local textBox = script.Parent
local text = script.Parent.Text

while bool.Value == true do
wait(1)
print(textBox.Text)
end

Alright if you want something else tell me and ill change it accept if helps
