coroutine.yield does not seem to stop a coroutine with a while loop inside. For example:
local spam = coroutine.create(function()
while true do
print("oof")
wait(1)
end
end)
coroutine.resume(spam)
wait(3) --Should print "oof" 3 times
coroutine.yield()
Yet the coroutine will continue to print "oof" indefinitely. Does anybody know of a fix for this?
Don't think you can, while loops cannot be stopped unless break is called upon, what I would do is I would use a function to do the task.
What if I needed two loops to run at once? How would I handle that?
I would do a function or a do code block.
The problem with a function is that it will run until it returns, and I need something that will run in the background while my main code keeps going.
Or a do statement (I don't really know what they're called anyways).
I think "do" could run in the background, but I'm not 100% sure.
You could use also threads such as delay and spawn.
spawn(function() end) works
Use a for loop instead lemme give example:
local f = coroutine.create(function() for i = 1,40 do wait(.05) game.Players.LocalPlayer.Character.Humanoid.CameraOffset = Vector3.new((math.random(1,3)/10)*power,0,0) wait(.05) game.Players.LocalPlayer.Character.Humanoid.CameraOffset = Vector3.new((-math.random(1,3)/10)*power,0,0) end end)
f = coroutine.create(function () while true do wait(.05) game.Players.LocalPlayer.Character.Humanoid.CameraOffset = Vector3.new((math.random(1,3)/10)*power,0,0) wait(.05) game.Players.LocalPlayer.Character.Humanoid.CameraOffset = Vector3.new((-math.random(1,3)/10)*power,0,0) end end)
That how I fixed mine when I had that problem

At line 6 you forgot an end)
Once coroutine.resume is called upon, the loop is started, and can only be stopped with break, so wait(3) will not run.
