Scripting Helpers is winding down operations and is now read-only. More info→

is there a way to do this without scripting it every single time?

so i have this value and everytime it changes with +1 i need it to copy a frame and change its position(and name) but i don't know how i would do this without scripting it with every value

i tried doing it with a loop but then when i come to the third copy the item would have the same position as the second one

the script:

hmi.Changed:connect(function()
    if hmi == 1 then
        scroller.Item1.Visible = true 
    end
    if hmi == 2 then  -- is there a way to automate this with a loop or something?
        local item = scroller.Item1:copy()
        item.Position = UDim2.new(0, 0,0.002, 0)
        item.Name = 'item2'
    end
end)

confusing. rephrase that. Programical 653 — 6y

You could use a for loop, like this :

for i = 1,10 do
    if hmi = i then
        --put what it does here
    end
end

Here, "i" will be 1 then 2, then 3, etc... By doing this, u dont have to write every single value but, if u want to make a different thing for each value, you'll need to write it for every value. So, if it always does the same thing, just the this loop

is there a way to do this without scripting it every single time?
