01while true do()
02    StarterMax = 10
03    sc = 0
04        function StarterLoop()
05            if sc <= StarterMax then
06                StarterPatchGrow()
07                sc = sc + 1
08                print(sc)
09            end
10        end
11    wait(1)
12end

01function StarterPatchGrow() -- Starter Patch Generation
02    math.randomseed(tick())
03    local _x = UnnamedModels:GetChildren()
04    local x = _x[math.random(1,#_x-2)]
05    local _y=x:GetChildren()
06    local y = _y[math.random(1,#_y)]
07    local Value = GetValue(y,"Unnamed")
08    local RealModel = y:Clone()
09    RealModel.Parent = StarterPatch.SpawnedPumpkins
10    RealModel.Position = Vector3.new(math.random(StarterPatch.MinX.Value,StarterPatch.MaxX.Value),math.random(StarterPatch.MinY.Value,StarterPatch.MaxY.Value),math.random(StarterPatch.MinZ.Value,StarterPatch.MaxZ.Value))
11    local PumpkinLabel = game.ReplicatedStorage.LoadModels.UI.PumpkinLabel:Clone()
12    PumpkinLabel.Adornee=RealModel
13    PumpkinLabel.Parent=RealModel
14    PumpkinLabel.Frame.Nickname.Text = 'Name : '..RealModel.Name
15    PumpkinLabel.Frame.Rarity.Text = 'Rarity : '..x.Name
16    PumpkinLabel.Frame.PumpkinValue.Text = 'Value : '..Value
17end

The loop will continue to print 1, anyone know why?

I'm not good at scripting so I'll just ask; why += and not just = ? Spjureeedd 385 — 6y

You need to include "sc" in the assignment. Don't use a compound assignment so "sc = sc + 1" Cousin_Potato 129 — 6y

Even when I only include sc = sc + 1, it prints 1 every time still. Simulants 52 — 6y

Is StarterMax a variable? Because you never use it Spjureeedd 385 — 6y

What's the rest of the code? Your function doesn't have a loop. Cousin_Potato 129 — 6y

Does it print 1 only one time or does it repeat it? Spjureeedd 385 — 6y

You're resetting sc=0 at the top of the loop everytime. Put the "sc = 0" outside of the while loop. Cousin_Potato 129 — 6y

Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh thanks Simulants 52 — 6y
