Hello,

I have a script that controls an 'IntValue' as if it were a timer. This Timer is in 'ReplicatedStorage' under a 'Configuration'. When the timer hits zero, it is supposed to fire a 'BindableEvent' as well as a 'RemoteEvent'. However, for some reason, at seemingly random times, the 'scripts' that rely upon those 'Bindable' and 'Remote' 'events' freeze. They just don't execute the code they are supposed to when the timer goes off. This happens maybe 10% of the time.

Here is my 'script' that controls the Timer:

local timerDebounce = false

game.ReplicatedStorage.GameInformation.Timer.Changed:connect(function(val)
	if timerDebounce then return end
	timerDebounce = true
	
	if val == 0 then
		game.ServerStorage.GameEvents.TimerEnded:Fire()
		game.ReplicatedStorage.RemoteEvents.TimerEnded:FireAllClients()
		timerDebounce = false
		return
	end
	
	val = val - 1
	wait(1)
	
	timerDebounce = false
	game.ReplicatedStorage.GameInformation.Timer.Value = val
end)

The changed event passes a property argument not a value argument. Try setting a variable as 'local val = timer.Value' or something like that. And when you're changing the timer's value, you will need to do 'timer.Value = timer.Value - 1'

Not true for any of the "___Value" objects. For things like IntValue, StringValue, ObjectValue, etc., the argument is actually the new value.
