How to smoothly animate this Loading Bar?
Hello.
For a project I'm working on, there is a general purpose Timer GUI that is supposed to show time remaining. (Basically like a loading bar)
Here is my code for it: The timer bar is located under > StarterGui -> gameGui -> FloatTop -> gBar
if Request == "countDown" then
gText.Text = "Intermission"
gG.Visible = true
gR.Visible = false
gBar.Size = UDim2.new(1.087,0,0,4) -- Timer, original size
gBar:TweenSize(UDim2.new(0,0,0,4), "InOut", "Linear", 15) -- Timer, new size, 15 sec. later
for i = 15, 1, -1 do
gTimer.Text = i
wait(1)
end
end
The problem is, it doesn't seem to work. How can I animate this line so it goes from size (1.087, 0, 0, 4) to (0, 0, 0, 4) in 15 seconds, smoothly?

You should change the size after/in the for loop.
-- Example
for i = 15, 0, -1 do
gTimer.Text = i
gBar.Size = gBar.Size - UDim2.new(0.07247,0,0,0)
print(i)
wait(1)
end
You can have it go faster/smoother/etc by changing the loop size and whilst doing so also changing the wait time and the amount the take away. So for example, you could start at 30 but change the wait time to .5 and divide the amount to remove by 2(in this scenario) just tune it till your satisfied.
Code would be something like this.
if Request == "countDown" then
gText.Text = "Intermission"
gG.Visible = true
gR.Visible = false
gBar.Size = UDim2.new(1.087,0,0,4) -- Timer, original size
for i = 15, 0, -1 do
gTimer.Text = i
gBar.Size = gBar.Size - UDim2.new(0.07247,0,0,0)
print(i)
wait(1)
end
end
