Making a variable's value go up to a certain point then down?
I made a variable for a part of my script but this doesnt seem to work, the print is so I know what the value is, why doesn't it work?
local wag = 44
while true do
for i = 1, 45 do
if wag <= -44 then
wag = wag+1
wait(.5)
elseif wag >= 44 then
wag = wag-1
wait(.5)
end
end
print(wag)
end
EDIT: Can someone fix this so it goes from 44 to -44 then back up?

I'm gonna show a way that's different - using a bool switch. Bool switches are just variables that you turn "on" and "off" each iteration.
You check the bool switch and execute code accordingly.
local wag = 44; --number
local bool = false; --bool switch
local MIN,MAX = -44,44 --bounds
while true and wait() do
if wag < MIN or wag > MAX then --If number is out of bounds
bool = not bool --switch the bool
end
wag = (bool and wag + 1) or wag - 1 --increment value according to bool
print(wag)
end
