Can't concatenate text?
So I've been working on a health GUI and it all works nicely, the bar scales and everything, but the text just does not update. I'm not sure if it's an error with concatenation or what, but it just doesn't work. Thanks!
maxHealth = player.Bin.MaxHealth
health = maxHealth
character.Humanoid.MaxHealth = maxHealth.Value
character.Humanoid.Health = health.Value
character.Humanoid.HealthChanged:connect(function()
hpBar:TweenSize(UDim2.new(character.Humanoid.Health/character.Humanoid.MaxHealth,0,1,0),"Out","Quad",0.5)
hpLabel.Text = ""..math.floor(health.Value)..""
if character.Humanoid.Health == 0 then
hpBar:TweenSize(UDim2.new(0,0,1,0),"Out","Quad",0.5)
hpLabel.Text = ""..math.floor(health.Value)..""
end
end)

Try just using the tostring function in Lua
If we have an int value,
local int = 55
We can make this into a string using,
local int = 55 local string = tostring(int)
Your code,
Hopefully this will work,
maxHealth = player.Bin.MaxHealth
health = maxHealth
character.Humanoid.MaxHealth = maxHealth.Value
character.Humanoid.Health = health.Value
character.Humanoid.HealthChanged:connect(function()
hpBar:TweenSize(UDim2.new(character.Humanoid.Health/character.Humanoid.MaxHealth,0,1,0),"Out","Quad",0.5)
hpLabel.Text = tostring(math.floor(health.Value))
if character.Humanoid.Health == 0 then
hpBar:TweenSize(UDim2.new(0,0,1,0),"Out","Quad",0.5)
hpLabel.Text = tostring(math.floor(health.Value))
end
end)
I hope I helped!
Good Luck!

That's odd. Usually numbers automatically convert to strings when concatenated, in Lua. Link150 1355 — 7y
