The "GetAttributeChangedSignal" function is not firing. How do I fix that?
(First post)
The script is just a normal script.
I have a part with an attribute called rockHP. (Which is the parent of this script.)
rock = script.Parent
print("test 1")
rock:GetAttributeChangedSignal("rockHP"):Connect(function()
print("attribute changed")
local rockHP = rock:GetAttribute("rockHP")
print(rockHP)
if rockHP <= 0 then
rock:Destroy()
end
end)
print("test 2")
When I manually change it this script doesn't detect anything.
I've tried to find answers online but I couldn't find any that fit my problem.

ur code works fine, the AttributeChangedSignal just doesnt detect when u manually change it. it only detects when something causes the change for example, look at this code:
local rock = script.Parent
rock.Touched:Connect(function(hit) --simple touched event script that sets the rockHP to 0
local hum = hit.Parent:FindFirstChild("Humanoid")
if hum then
rock:SetAttribute("rockHP",0)
end
end)
rock:GetAttributeChangedSignal("rockHP"):Connect(function() --now it detects the change
print("attribute changed")
local rockHP = rock:GetAttribute("rockHP")
print(rockHP)
if rockHP <= 0 then
rock:Destroy()
end
end)
