I'm trying to make a timer, but it isn't working. Number values aren't working either. Why is this?
So I'm trying to make a timer, but the code isn't working. I've tried adding a number value, but it didn't work. Here is my script:
local ltime = script.Parent.Value
while true do
script.Parent.Text = "Time alive:"..ltime
wait(1)
ltime = ltime + 1
end
Also, forgot to mention this, the textbox's text only says "TextBox".

You're trying to store an integer value in a Value field, and a string value in a Text field. No instance has both of those properties.
Now, assuming you put this script inside of a TextBox
local textbox = script.Parent
local timealive = 0
while true do
textbox.Text = ("Time alive:" .. timealive)
wait(1)
timealive = timealive + 1
end
