Value changes, but ModuleScript uses original value?
I'm making a MMORPG shooter game. I have weapons that have a Configuration folder inside them, which have values. A ModuleScript will recognize these values and make them have use (such as damage, reload time, spread, etc.), but once they change, the ModuleScript won't use the new value and will use the original value. How can I make it recognize the new value?
CODE SNIPPETS (Separated)
local reloadtime = script.Parent.WeaponStats.ReloadTime
ReloadTime = reloadtime.Value
ReloadAnimationSpeed = reloadtime.Value + 0.2
(end) If you know what FE Gun Kit (by SuperEvilAzmil) is and you are fluent with values, i'm pretty sure you can help. You don't need to know what the gun kit is. (requested help on the unoffical roblox discord, but that didn't help me well.)

Variables connected to properties don't change when their corresponding property changes. Use this to help.
-- local reloadtime = script.Parent.WeaponStats.ReloadTime
-- ReloadTime = reloadtime.Value
-- ReloadAnimationSpeed = reloadtime.Value + 0.2
reloadtime.Changed:Connect(function()
ReloadTime = reloadtime.Value
ReloadAnimationSpeed = reloadtime.Value + 0.2
end)
EDIT: Still won't change? Weird, try this
-- local reloadtime = script.Parent.WeaponStats.ReloadTime
-- ReloadTime = reloadtime.Value
-- ReloadAnimationSpeed = reloadtime.Value + 0.2
local UpdateCoroutine = coroutine.create(function()
while true do
ReloadTime = reloadtime.Value
ReloadAnimationSpeed = reloadtime.Value + 0.2
wait()
end
end)
coroutine.resume(UpdateCoroutine)
EDIT EDIT: Still doesn't work??? nani?
here goes
-- at the start of the script
local reloadtime = script.Parent.WeaponStats.ReloadTime
local UpdateCoroutine = coroutine.create(function()
while true do
ReloadTime = script.Parent.WeaponStats.ReloadTime.Value
ReloadAnimationSpeed = script.Parent.WeaponStats.ReloadTime.Value + 0.2
wait()
end
end
coroutine.resume(UpdateCoroutine)
if this still doesn't work, it's not at the start of the script
if it still doesn't work at the start of the script, you misspelled something
if you copied it directly from the view source thingy that always is included with the lua thingy and it still doesn't work, then
while true do
spawn(function()
while true do
spawn(function()
spawn(function()
while true do
print("NANI?")
end
while true do
print("NANI?")
end
while true do
spawn(function()
while true do
print("NANI?")
end
end
while true do
print("NANI?")
end
end
end
end
while true do
spawn(function()
spawn(function()
while true do
print("NANI?")
end
while true do
print("NANI?")
end
while true do
spawn(function()
while true do
print("NANI?")
end
end
while true do
print("NANI?")
end
end
end
end
IT DIDN'T WORK?????
while true do
local corout = coroutine.create(function()
while true do
local corou = coroutine.create(function()
while true do
local coro = coroutine.create(function()
while true do
local cor = coroutine.create(function()
while true do
local co = coroutine.create(function()
print("NANI?")
end)
coroutine.resume(co)
print("NANI?")
end
end)
coroutine.resume(cor)
print("NANI?")
end
end)
coroutine.resume(coro)
print("NANI?")
end
end)
coroutine.resume(corou)
print("NANI?")
end
end)
coroutine.resume(corout)
print("NANI?")
end
