My coroutine for dialogue options won't work?
So I have some dialogue and I want two options: one you can press, and one that has a timer. I need to fit both in only one script, so I tried to use a coroutine to make the timer go while you're able to press the first button, but it won't work at all (proven with prints). does anyone know why? here is my code:
coroutine.wrap(function()
print("coroutine")
for i=5, 1, -1 do
wait(1)
print(i)
rightoption.Text = i
end
end)
Just for clarification,, the console outputs nothing.

Hello!
First of all, the coroutine.wrap() works with the parameter to be a function.
local value = 0
local function Test()
print("coroutine")
for i=5, 1, -1 do
wait(1)
print(i)
value = i
end
end
coroutine.wrap(Test)()
Here is the fixed code, you have to remove the value variable (I used it for testing). Also it isn't looping, if you wanted to do that.

Adding on to SuperPuiu's explanation, you can wrap undeclared functions
coroutine.wrap(function()
print("Coroutine")
end)()
To pass parameters, do:
coroutine.wrap(function(msg)
print(msg)
end)("Coroutine")
