Quick question about how to do an infinite loop?
So I have am making an Intermission bar in-game, and basically there's a stringVal in replicatedStorage and there's a TextLabel in a ScreenGUI that will update it to the current value of the stringVal. So what i'm confused about, is the script to update the value looks like this:
1 | local status = game.ReplicatedStorage:WaitForChild("Status") |
2 |
3 | status.Value = "Intermission (1 Minute)" |
4 | wait(60) |
5 | status.Value = "Round In Progress (3 Minutes)" |
6 | wait(180) |
But whenever the "Round In Progress" 3 minutes run out, it stays at Round in progress. I have tried making a value and setting it to "true" and adding this line of code
1 | local status = game.ReplicatedStorage:WaitForChild("Status") |
2 |
3 | while game.ReplicatedStorage.Looper.Value == "true" do |
4 | status.Value = "Intermission (1 Minute)" |
5 | wait(60) |
6 | status.Value = "Round In Progress (3 Minutes)" |
7 | wait(180) |
but that doesn't work. Can someone please explain how to make the top script repeat over and over

1 | while true do |
2 | print("hello, i am the magical function of while true do, everyone hates me but I can be useful for you. la la la la") |
3 | wait() |
4 | end |

Will that repeat? and do I just do "While true do" with no context? SBlankthorn 329 — 6y

Or you could just make a numValue and make the value INF which is a thing so it would be like this
1 | script.Value.Value ---Go into the editor and manually change this to INF in the value section |
