Why is this not looping?
Im making a for loop and it does not loop like I want it to.
function newRound(plr) --Main function :)
if serverStarted ~= nil then
for i=1, 10,1 do
wait(1)
updateGui("New round starting in "..timeToWait-1)
end
end
end
No outputs
FULL SCRIPT:
--//VALUES\\--
local maps = {"Map1","Map2","Map3","Map4","Map5","Map6"}
mapChosen = ""
roundTime = 1*60 -- 1 minute
timeToWait = 10
serverStarted = false
--//CODE\\--
function newRound(plr) --Main function :)
if serverStarted ~= nil then
for i=1, 10, 1 do
wait(1)
updateGui("New round starting in "..timeToWait-1)
end
mapChosen = maps[math.random(#maps)]
changeMap(mapChosen)
updateGui("Map chosen is "..mapChosen)
wait(3)
tpPlayers("map")
updateGui("Round end in 10 seconds") --should be minutes but too long and its late now lmao
wait(10)
tpPlayers("lobby")
updateGui("Round is over!")
removeMap()
wait(1)
newRound(plr)
end
end
function changeMap(map) --Change the map
if workspace:FindFirstChild(mapChosen) then
removeMap()
else
local map = game.ReplicatedStorage.Maps:FindFirstChild(mapChosen):Clone()
map.Parent = workspace
wait()
end
end
function updateGui(msg) --Update the message
for i,v in pairs(game.Players:GetPlayers()) do
v.PlayerGui:WaitForChild("Gui") --Wait for the GUI
v.PlayerGui.Gui.Text.Text = msg
wait()
end
end
function removeMap() --Remove the map
if workspace:FindFirstChild(mapChosen) then
workspace:FindFirstChild(mapChosen):Destroy()
wait()
end
end
function tpPlayers(location) --Teleport players to map
for i,v in pairs(game.Players:GetPlayers()) do
local chr = v.Character
if chr then
if location == "map" then
chr:MoveTo(Vector3.new(0,0,0))
elseif location == "lobby" then
chr:MoveTo(workspace.Lobby.Position)
end
else
print(v.Name.."'s character not found.") --Error message
end
end
end
game.Players.PlayerAdded:connect(function(plr)
serverStarted = true
newRound(plr)
end)

You have to explain more and include all of the relevant code. What's happening? What should be happening insted? BlueTaslem 18071 — 9y

This is the only part that does not work. It should be changing the time each second but it changes it once and leaves it there. Kyokamii 133 — 9y

The problem with your code:
It is continually changing the timeToWait value to 9. So:
local done = false
for i = timeToWait,1,-1 do
wait(1)
updateGui(""..i)
if i == 1 then
done == true
end
end
repeat wait() until done == true -- for loops do not stop the code like while loops

I won't use your script, but thanks anyway. Kyokamii 133 — 9y
