the text only loads when you start the game, then stops changing as the other textlabels text changes gracefulsuperman 5 — 7y

This should crash studio if im not mistaken... Add a wait(0.1) into the loop to prevent studio crash. dragonkeeper467 453 — 7y

local turntableText = game.Workspace.TurnTable.Selector.Disp.Frame.Playing

turntableText.Changed:connect(function()
    script.Parent.Text = turntableText.Text
end)

Also while true do loops aren't very good always use while wait(0.5) do -- or any amount of time you want to wait

This answer is absolutely horrific #1 the .Changed function fires every time said object is changed, No need for it to be in a loop. #2 there's no delay in the loop so it will crash the game. #3 your checking if the textLabel's text changed which is the wrong way to do it.. check the object in the workspace for if it's value changed..
