I'm trying to make it so when you join the game the textlabel will randomly change colors but when I test it, nothing happens and I get no errors. Why?
local labelcolor = script.Parent.TextColor3
while true do
wait(.5)
local r = math.random(0,255)
local b = math.random(0,255)
local g = math.random(0,255)
labelcolor = Color3.fromRGB(r,g,b)
wait(.5)
end
Hello,
This is one way you can randomly change the colour of the text button is by doing this. I will explain it in the script. I have done it with Color3, not Color3.fromRGB
FINAL SCRIPT USING Color3.new()
-- Variables
local button = script.Parent
-- main bit
while true do -- this is an infinite loop
wait(1) -- do this or the game will crash due to overloading
button.TextColor3 = Color3.new((math.random()), (math.random()),( math.random())) -- the reason that the brackets have been left blank will be explained
end
So, leaving the brackets blank means that the values that the math.random() function will return is a decimal between 0 and 1
I printed math.random() and this was the output
0.54552773666264
0.2989054301143
0.084517205494783
0.24972764937719
0.90271937913953
0.86965136187734
and the values for Color3 have to be a number between 0 and 1, and math.random() will fetch you a multitude of decimals between 0 and 1.
If this helped, please accept it. Thanks!
even worse
you also forgot that the Roblox color spectrum uses numbers that are integers not decimals
And you clearly don't know that TextColor3 uses a number between 0 and 1. https://developer.roblox.com/api-reference/property/TextBox/TextColor3 . According to your logic, tell me a number between 0 and 1 that is an integer.
Maybe try this in a local script and this script instead?
local labelcolor = script.Parent.TextColor3
while wait(1) do
local r = math.random(0,255)
local b = math.random(0,255)
local g = math.random(0,255)
labelcolor = Color3.fromRGB(r,g,b)
end
wrong. you can't change the gui that way and while wait() do is deprecated.

I'd try adding a dely above the Script, sometimes the Scriot can fun faster than the assets can load, it won't tell you it's nil
I see what you're trying to do. if the script is local, change the text color from the player gui instead of the native gui
Wym?
game.Players.LocalPlayer.PlayerGui.ScreenGui.TextLabel.TextColor3
Please have a look at my answer. Thanks
When you do something like
local Variable = ValueObj.Value, it's not defining theValueproperty, it's saving what the value is for theValueproperty; the simple solution's just to set the.Valueeach time you plan on doing it. (For example, TxtLbl.Color3 = Blah and no TxtLblColor3 = Blah)MCandRobloxUnited is doing it the long way around. Look at my answer. It works for me.
