Nesting While loops?
Greetings fellow Robloxians... I've been writing this script that does as follows:
(Player stands on brick the brick changes color if the players health isn't 100 it heals him and once he leaves the pad it changes back to the original color... )
(THE PROBLEM- The problem I'm having is that on the marked line bellow I can't figure out how to have the player heal only while he is standing on the pad.. If he moves he no longer receives healing. I tried to nest the while loop but had no luck. I've did some researching and articles say you nest while loops by:
while(condition) do while(condition) do statement(s) end statement(s) end
However I had no luck with that so I tried to use the 'and' identifier and once more I had no luck. I'd appreciate if a trained eye can view my code and tell me what I'm doing wrong, thank you very much in advance.
db=false
function heal(player)
if db then return end
db=true
local h = player.Parent:FindFirstChild("Humanoid")
if h~= nil and h:FindFirstChild("Value")== nil then
local brick=script.Parent
character=h.Parent
torso=h.Parent.Torso
tp=torso.Position
bp=brick.Position
if h.Health <100 then
print("Charging Heal-Pad!")
for i=1,10 do
wait(.1)
brick.Transparency=brick.Transparency + .1
end
brick.BrickColor=BrickColor.new("Really red")
wait(.1)
for j=1,10 do
wait(.1)
brick.Transparency=brick.Transparency - .1
end
while h.Health < 100 and (tp-bp).Magnitude<=5.6 do ----------------------this line------------------------
wait(.111111)
h.Health=h.Health+4

As with the other reply, I am at school so I can't test but I hope it works:
local heal = 4
local brick = script.Parent
brick.Touched:connect(function(obj)
local on = false
for i = 1, 10 do
wait(.1)
brick.Transparency = i/10
end
brick.BrickColor = BrickColor.new("Really red") wait(.1)
for i = 9, 0, -1 do
wait(.1)
brick.Transparency = i/10
end
on = true
brick.TouchEnded:connect(function(object)
if obj == object then
on = false
end
end)
local human = obj.Parent:FindFirstChild("Humanoid")
if human == nil then on = false end
while on == true do
if human.Health + heal > human.MaxHealth then
human.Health = human.MaxHealth
on = false
end
human.Health = human.Health + heal
wait(.1)
end
end)
Hey I am not 100% sure as I made this in school and I am not able to test it out on studio so if this works I am glad that it helped if not then mind telling me the problem?

This is not yet tested just made off a guess so if it works your welcome if not tell me what the error is

local part -- Make sure to say what is this part
local on = false
part.Touched:connect(function(obj)
if(obj ~= nil)then
if (obj:FindFirstChild("Humanoid") ~= nil) then
on = true
CheckIsOn(obj, 1)
end
repeat wait() until obj == nil
on = false
end
end)
function ChangeHealth(person, amountHeal)
while wait() do
if on == true then
if person:FindFirstChild("Humanoid").Health < 100 then
person:FindFirstChild("Humanoid").Health = person:FindFirstChild("Humanoid").Health + amountHeal
else
break
end
else
break
end
end
end
