I tried making a script in which the brick slowly disappears and then slowly reappears after, and this goes on infinitely. But it isn't working, here is the script:
t = script.Parent.Transparency
while true do
for i=1,10 do
t = t + 0.1
wait(1)
end
wait(1)
for i=1,10 do
t = t + 0.1
wait(1)
end
end
local t = script.Parent
while true do
for i=1,10 do
t.Transparency = t.Transparency + 0.1 -- Addend
wait(1)
end
for i=1,10 do
t.Transparency = t.Transparency - 0.1 -- Subtraction
wait(1)
end
end
The script is going disappear forever cause you are ALWAYS adding transparency:
t = script.Parent.Transparency
while true do
for i=1,10 do
t = t + 0.1
wait(1)
end
wait(1)
for i=1,10 do
t = t - 0.1 -- you said here t = t + 0.1
wait(1)
end
end
Protip: Instead of adding, you can make the things happen on i var, like this:
t = script.Parent.Transparency
while true do
for i = 0, 1, 0.1 do -- it goes from 0 to 1, adding 0.1
t = i
wait(1)
end
wait(1)
for i = 1, 0, -0.1 do -- going from 1 to 0, subtracting 0.1
t = i
wait(1)
end
end
as everyone on the comments and I said, you should give objects to the vars and changing their properties, like this:
t = script.Parent
while true do
for i = 0, 1, 0.1 do -- it goes from 0 to 1, adding 0.1
t.Transparency = i
wait(1)
end
wait(1)
for i = 1, 0, -0.1 do -- going from 1 to 0, subtracting 0.1
t.Transparency = i
wait(1)
end
end
Thanks for making it more efficient, but for some reason it still isn't working.
try using t = script.Parent and t.Transparency = i
You're script is maybe disabled
anything in the output?
You can't use properties in variables as the variables only store the value of the property. What dav said above will work if you use t = script.Parent and t.Transparency = i.
@Spongecardo, you can set properties as a variable and use them, it only errors when you try to edit the variable
now he can understand :)
@Lord Yeah, that's what I was trying to say.

Alright thanks it worked, so do you have to change properties inside of the loop instead of defining them in the variable? Cause I can see that you changed it to where it changes the transparency inside the loop. Either way I'll accept the answer.
oh finnaly you understood!!
