Is there another way to do loop this transparency?

Asked Aug 2, 2018653 views4 answers

I write a command about transparency, but I want to loop it, I knew how to, but I kind of forget, I remember it's like "for i" something like, so can anyone help me remember?

while true do
	script.Parent.Transparency = 0.1
	wait(1.5)
	script.Parent.Transparency = 0.2
	wait(1.5)
	script.Parent.Transparency = 0.3
	wait(1.5)
	script.Parent.Transparency = 0.4
	wait(1.5)
	script.Parent.Transparency = 0.5
	wait(1.5)
	script.Parent.Transparency = 0.6
	wait(1.5)
	script.Parent.Transparency = 0.7
	wait(1.5)
	script.Parent.Transparency = 0.8
	wait(1.5)
	script.Parent.Transparency = 0.9
	wait(1.5)
	script.Parent.Transparency = 1
end

I can just do that but I think there is a easier way!

Yes you are correct, there is an easier way.

for i = 1,10 do
	script.Parent.Transparency = script.Parent.Transparency + 0.1
	wait(1.5)
end

If you want it looped it would be...

while true do
	for i = 1,10 do
		script.Parent.Transparency = script.Parent.Transparency + 0.1
		wait(1.5)
	end

	for i = 1,10 do
		script.Parent.Transparency = script.Parent.Transparency - 0.1
		wait(1.5)
	end
end

XxxLloyd061302xxX's answer is probably better in terms of changing the transparency though.

XxxLloyd061302xxX doesnt make his own scripts, he copies other peoples scripts and makes them into his video tutorial.

Use for loop.


for i = 0,1, 0.1 do
	wait()
	script.Parent.Transparency = i
end

Just like that. 0.1, is the increment of the transparency.

You can use for loops:

for i = 0, 1, 0.1 do
	script.Parent.Transparency = i
	wait(1.5)
end

Or, you can use TweenServices, which are a bit more complicated, but are easy to understand nonetheless:

for loop = 1,10 do
	wait()
	script.Parent.Transparency = loop/10
end

If you're trying to loop a particle emitter transparency, look into "NumberSequence".
