Is there a way I can loop this scrolling text script?

I want to create this for one of my upcoming games, but I am currently at a halt since I need this to further develop. The local fulltext is the text that prints in game, but that isn't necessary I need the part that loops the scrolling process repeatedly with no end

local fulltext = "Please stay off the platform" -- change to the text you want
local text = ""

for i = 1,#fulltext do
 text = fulltext:sub(1,i)
 script.Parent.Text = text
 wait()
end

Wrap you code up in a while loop. That will run the code inside of the loop forever. Make sure you put a wait in the loop because if you don't it will error. Here is the wiki page on loops: https://www.robloxdev.com/articles/Roblox-Coding-Basics-Loops

Example:

while true do
    -- your code here

    wait(0.01)
end
