How to put a number value in a Text ?
Hello, I'd like to do a GUI which is showing the Hertz Value but it doesn't work. In the output windows, I can see :
10:37:00.551 - Players.Player.PlayerGui.HUD.Script:5: attempt to call global 'Hertz' (a number value) 10:37:00.552 - Stack Begin 10:37:00.552 - Script 'Players.Player.PlayerGui.HUD.Script', Line 5 10:37:00.552 - Stack End
Here is my script
1 | HUD = script.Parent |
2 | Hertz = HUD.Hertz.Value |
3 | Hertz_Shower = HUD.HertzDisplayer.Hertz |
4 |
5 | Hertz_Shower.Text = ""..Hertz" Hertz" |

With variables, you can't just use v = v.Valuebecause variables cannot hold a value. Instead, you should make Hertz equal to just HUD.Hertz and call the value later on. In addition, you'd also need to concatenate after the value. This code below should do the trick.
1 | HUD = script.Parent |
2 | Hertz = HUD.Hertz |
3 | Hertz_Shower = HUD.HertzDisplayer.Hertz |
4 |
5 | Hertz_Shower.Text = ""..Hertz.Value.." Hertz" |

Variables can hold the value of a property, but the variable will not remain connected to the object, so when the property changes the variable won't. Also look into tostring() Perci1 4988 — 10y

@Perci; tostring is not necessary in this case, and would still require concatenation. @OP; The empty string concatenation before `Hertz.Value` is also unneccessary. adark 5487 — 10y

Not in this case, but as for the original question, tostring() is the best option in most cases. Perci1 4988 — 10y
