can somone tell me the 1000000 reasons this dont work im new to coding btw i had this idea but never got it to work i get no errors either so i dont know how to fix it Help pls
local streetlightsTable = game.Workspace.streetlights:GetChildren()
while true do wait()
for i, v in pairs(streetlightsTable) do
if game.Lighting.TimeOfDay == "<= 06:30:00" then
for i, v in pairs(streetlightsTable) do
v.Lights.Light.Enabled = true
end
elseif game.Lighting.TimeOfDay == ">= 06:30:00" then
for i, v in pairs(streetlightsTable) do
v.Lights.Light.Enabled = false
end
end
end
end
idk whats wrong but thinking now im wondering if its the greater than and less then symbols i dont know how to insert them exactly

When it comes to comparing values, you need the operator(==, >=, ~=, <=, etc) in between the values you're trying to compare without anything like quotation marks. Here's what fixed operators should look like:
local streetlightsTable = game.Workspace.streetlights:GetChildren()
while true do wait()
for i, v in pairs(streetlightsTable) do
if game.Lighting.TimeOfDay <= "06:30:00" then
for i, v in pairs(streetlightsTable) do
v.Lights.Light.Enabled = true
end
elseif game.Lighting.TimeOfDay >= "06:30:00" then
for i, v in pairs(streetlightsTable) do
v.Lights.Light.Enabled = false
end
end
end
end
However, this is not how you would measure the time of day if you're comparing it. You aren't able to compare strings in this way, which means that you should use Lighting.ClockTime. Here's how your code should look if you're using Lighting.Clocktime:
local streetlightsTable = game.Workspace.streetlights:GetChildren()
while true do wait()
for i, v in pairs(streetlightsTable) do
if game.Lighting.ClockTime <= 6.5 then
for i, v in pairs(streetlightsTable) do
v.Lights.Light.Enabled = true
end
elseif game.Lighting.ClockTime >= 6.5 then
for i, v in pairs(streetlightsTable) do
v.Lights.Light.Enabled = false
end
end
end
end
