Really simple 3-liner script not working?
I'm trying to make a time script in the Lighting service that makes 1 minute of in-game time pass every 3 real-time seconds. For whatever reason, the TimeOfDay isn't changing at all, and the output isn't giving me any errors. I can't find any reason why this wouldn't work for me. Here's the script:
while wait(3) do
script.Parent:SetMinutesAfterMidnight(script.Parent:GetMinutesAfterMidnight() + 1)
end

Move it to ServerScriptService, then replace "script.Parent" with "game.Lighting" Redbullusa 1580 — 9y

The reason for that is that scripts don't work in the Lighting. That's why the Lighting was such a common place to store tools before the Storage services were introduced.
Simply move the script into the Workspace and replace "script.Parent" with "game.Lighting"
Hope this helped!
