I'm a new scripter that is trying to make a brick appear dramatically by a bit of CFraming and so.
But when I try and make it so then it starts off invisible and turns visible, I just don't know how I can do it.
I know I will need the for loop, but that is all I can think of.. Any help will be appreciated.
First we need to decide how many "cycles" it will take for it to go invisible.
cycle = 6 -- 6 loops for it to go 100% invisible
We will also need a variable for the brick itself
brick = game.Workspace["Some brick name"]
Now we need to for statement
num = 1 / cycle
for i = 1, cycle do
brick.Transparency = brick.Transparency - num -- Subtract = Get invisible / Add = Get visible
end
Explained:
Line 1: We need to figure out what number, when added/subtracted 6 times, will get us to 1. We can do that by dividing 1 by the cycle (6)
Line 3: Here, we need to let the script know it needs to be done 6 times total
Line 4: Now it is time to to change the transparency
Now we put it all together!
cycle = 6 -- 6 loops for it to go 100% invisible
brick = game.Workspace["Some brick name"]
num = 1 / cycle
for i = 1, cycle do
brick.Transparency = brick.Transparency - num -- Subtract = Get invisible / Add = Get visible
end
