?True/False value won't change

Asked by

I have a script to change values, which works on one car but not on the other. The script is meant to make a lightbar light up. The lights, who are located inside another model within the car, have their own script which works.

UPDATE I believe this is the problem:

local isOn = false

veh = game.Workspace:FindFirstChild(script.Parent.Parent.CarName.Value, true)

function on() 
    isOn = true
    veh.lightbar1.on.Value = false

end

function off() 
    isOn = false
    veh.lightbar1.on.Value = true
end

function onButtonClicked()

    if isOn == true then off() else on() end

end

script.Parent.MouseButton1Click:connect(onButtonClicked)

on()

for future reference "true/false values" are usually referred to as "bool values" User#22604 1 — 5y

Still not working. Would you be able to fix it if I were to add you into team create? ConstableArkwright 0 — 5y

This should work like a toggle switch as long as the Variable is correct and you've got it placed in the correct location.

veh = script.Parent.Parent.CarName.Value

function onButtonClicked()
    veh.Value = not veh.Value
end

script.Parent.MouseButton1Click:Connect(onButtonClicked)

compact it even more. Remove the entire if statement and change it into ----- veh.Value = not veh.Value RubenKan 3615 — 5y

That doesn't work for me, I updated the question because I feel like that may be the problem. Thanks for trying though. ConstableArkwright 0 — 5y

Can you show me what you ended up with after adding in the correct variable to my script? I think you may be referencing the bool incorrectly DinozCreates 1070 — 5y
