Why Does This GUI Script Not Work Until I Reset?

Asked by

The script I have written below is supposed to create an XP bar for the player that automatically updates as the player's XP changes. However, the XP bar does not update unless my player resets; when it respawns, the bar then updates. Is there anything about my script that could be causing this?

Bar1 = script.Parent.Bar1
    PosX1 = Bar1.Position.X.Offset
    SizeX1 = Bar1.Size.X.Offset
Bar2 = script.Parent.Bar2
    PosY2 = Bar2.Position.Y.Offset
    SizeY2 = Bar2.Size.Y.Offset
Bar3 = script.Parent.Bar3
    PosX3 = Bar3.Position.X.Offset
    SizeX3 = Bar3.Size.X.Offset
Bar4 = script.Parent.Bar4
    PosY4 = Bar4.Position.Y.Offset
    SizeY4 = Bar4.Size.Y.Offset
Bar5 = script.Parent.Bar5
    PosX5 = Bar5.Position.X.Offset
    SizeX5 = Bar5.Size.X.Offset

xp = script.Parent.Parent.Parent.Parent.leaderstats.StatsStorage.XP
level = script.Parent.Parent.Parent.Parent.leaderstats.Level

lvlForm = (level.Value*5)^2
frac1 = lvlForm*.125
frac2 = lvlForm*.375
ratio1 = xp.Value/frac1
ratio2 = xp.Value/(frac1+frac2)
ratio3 = xp.Value/(frac1+frac2*2)
ratio4 = xp.Value/(frac1+frac2*3)
ratio5 = xp.Value/lvlForm

while true do
    wait(.01)
    if level.Value < 100 then
        if ratio1 < 1 then
            Bar1.Size = UDim2.new(0, SizeX1*ratio1, 0, 5)

Wow, add some loops, this is getting hilarious. Link150 1355 — 8y

Try this, I added [:WaitForChild("")] so when the player loads the script doesn't start without loading the items. Hope this works! I probably didn't explain this properly, so I apologize for that.

I am afraid that the WaitForChild function did not work; I thank you for attempting to help, though! I actually thought this might have worked... 8391ice 91 — 8y
