How do you end a script without looping itself and rebeginning itself?
So, I'm making my own Computer Core but I don't know how to end a script. Ive tried so many things but the script will repeat itself.
while true do
wait(1)
if game.Workspace.Temp.Value > 2000 then
script.Alert1:Play()
local msg = Instance.new("Message")
msg.Parent = game.Workspace
msg.Name = 'Selfdestruct'
wait(5)
script.Alert1:Stop()
msg.Text = "SelfDestruct in ----"
script.Self6mins:Play()
wait(5)
msg.Text = "SelfDestruct in 6 Minutes"
game.Workspace.Selfdestruct:remove()
wait(3)
script.Self6mins:Stop()
script.Disabled = true
end
end
I even tried to disable the script at the end, even that won't work. Can somebody help me out?

Don't loop things to constantly check them. The best way is using the changed event. Then you disconnect it once it reaches over 2000.
Does this work?
local con
con = workspace:WaitForChild("Temp").Changed:Connect(function(new)
if new > 2000 then
con:Disconnect() -- to stop this code from running again
script.Alert1:Play()
local msg = Instance.new("Message")
msg.Parent = game.Workspace
msg.Name = 'Selfdestruct'
wait(5)
script.Alert1:Stop()
msg.Text = "SelfDestruct in ----"
script.Self6mins:Play()
wait(5)
msg.Text = "SelfDestruct in 6 Minutes"
game.Workspace.Selfdestruct:Destroy() -- remove is deprecated, use Destroy.
wait(3)
script.Self6mins:Stop()
script.Disabled = true
end
end)
