I'm confused, why doesn't this work properly?

Why does the second "if" play if the Finished.Value is already true?

while true do wait()

if script.Parent.Finished.Value == true and script.Finished.Value == false and game.Workspace.Finished.First.Took.Value == false then
script.Parent.Results.Visible = true
script.Finished.Value = true
game.Workspace.Finished.First.Took.Value = true
game.Workspace.Finished.First.Value = "1 - "..game.Players.LocalPlayer.Name

wait(1)
if script.Parent.Finished.Value == true and script.Finished.Value == false and game.Workspace.Finished.Second.Took.Value == false then
script.Parent.Results.Visible = true
script.Finished.Value = true
game.Workspace.Finished.Second.Took.Value = true
game.Workspace.Finished.Second.Value = "2 - "..game.Players.LocalPlayer.Name
end

end end

Could you explain what you're trying to do here? I'm confused.

You have the second if statement nested within the first, and I can't see why.

By the way, ValueObjects have a Changed event that only fires when the Value changes, so you don't have to put this code in an infinite loop.

I'm trying to keep that 2nd statement from running if script.Finished.Value == true sergantbloxxer 5 — 9y

Try putting:

elseif script.Parent.Finished.Value == true and script.Finished.Value == false and game.Workspace.Finished.Second.Took.Value == false then

for the start if the second 'if', so just change 'if' to 'elseif'

You need to be constantly checking for the value, so I recommend doing something like this:

repeat wait() until script.Parent.Finished.Value == true and script.Finished.Value == false

So basically, make it wait for that value to change in order to run the code below. Did this help?

Is it supposed to be the first line? It won't work for me that way. sergantbloxxer 5 — 9y
