[SOLVED] What is the best way to tell if a value has been subtracted from?
What is the best way to tell if a value has been subtracted from?
I have some ideas like this one, for instance:
local number = game.Workspace.Number
local prevnumber = number.Value
number.Changed:connect(function()
if number.Value < prevnumber then
print("Number is smaller than prevnumber")
end
end)
But what I really want to know is if there is any other more efficient way to tell if a value has ben subtracted from.
Any help is greatly appreciated!

There is genuinely no better way to tell if it has been subtracted from than to check. Mind, your example code is wrong.
local num = workspace.Number;
local prev = num.Value;
num.Changed:connect(function(val)
if prev > val then
-- Subtracted from
end
prev = val; -- Make sure that you update the old value
end);
