Why isnt this function script not working?

Asked 38 views1 answers

I made a loading frame that would grow until it hits a specific position. The growing thing is working. But the function load() isnt working at all. The output doesn't say anything. Can someone help me fix this? 

lol = 1
for i = 0,89.7 do
script.Parent.Scroll.Size = UDim2.new(0, i*10, 0, 65)
wait(math.random(0.08,0.54))
end
function Load()
if script.Parent.Scroll.Size == UDim2.new(0, 897, 0, 65) then
lol = script.Parent.Scroll.BackgroundTransparency + .1
lol = script.Parent.BackScroll.BackgroundTransparency + .1
script.Parent.Scroll:Destroy()
script.Parent.BackScroll:Destroy()
wait(.4)
lol = script.Parent.Mystic.ImageTransparency + .1
script.Parent.Mystic:Destroy()
end
end
Load()

With your 'lol' variables -- Are you trying to change the transparency of the guis?

✓ Accepted answer
lol = script.Parent.Scroll.BackgroundTransparency + .1

This makes lol equal to the BackgroundTransparency, plus 0.1. lol is a number. It does not, in any way, tell the computer to change the gui's transparency. Remember, computers only do what you specifically tell them to do.

We just need to edit it like any other variable. We can make the gui's transparency equal the gui's transparency, plus 0.1:

script.Parent.Scroll.BackgroundTransparency = (script.Parent.Scroll.BackgroundTransparency + 0.1)
--Parentheses were added for clarity. Don't use them.

Or, if you would like:

lol = script.Parent.Scroll.BackgroundTransparency + .1
script.Parent.Scroll.BackgroundTransparency = lol

will do the same thing. Although I would recommend the first method.
