regular if statement not working?

Asked 192 views1 answers

So, I made an if statement that checks when you're dead. Since you don't need the full code, I'll just make one with the same scenario.

This is a Localscript, and this is filtering enabled!!

while wait(1) do
	if game.Players.LocalPlayer.Character:FindFirstChild("Humanoid").Health == 0 then --my true problem
		warn("This is a test") --i prefer warn, as it is easier to see in the output.
	end
end

What is wrong? It seems normal, but the warn doesn't appear in the output!

how is the player losing HP? I tested my self by setting the property value to 0 while in test mode and it works fine. If you're subtracting HP somewhere else, change your operator from == to <= as the math can leave decimals

Instead of using loop, use the humanoid's event.

For example the Died() :

--localscript

local Plr = game.Players.LocalPlayer

Plr.Character.Humanoid.Died:Connect(function()
	print('player dies')
end)

What it does is triggering the function as soon as the player's health hits zero.
