Why does this script not decrease/increase? [STILL UNANSWERED]
Hello, I have worked on a new script but it seems to be glitchy.
It will always decrease and not increase. Help?
while true do
currentTime = script.Parent.Parent.Current.Value
wait()
function setName()
script.Parent.Name = ""..currentTime.." C"
end
setName()
if game.Workspace.A.Zig.Value.Value == false then
wait(5)
script.Parent.Parent.Current.Value = script.Parent.Parent.Current.Value +2
setName()
else
if game.Workspace.A.Zig.Value.Value == true then
wait(5)
script.Parent.Parent.Current.Value = script.Parent.Parent.Current.Value - 2
setName()
end
end
end

DrakOMaster did a good job, there's just one problem with his code.
It will keep adding or subtracting until the value is changed to true or false, then set the name. I am assuming you want the name to change every time the value changes. You could do this two different ways. Here is the first way:
local sp = script.Parent
local time = script.Parent.Parent.Current
local zig = game.Workspace.A.Zig.Value
while wait() do
if zig.Value == false then
repeat wait(5)
time.Value = time.Value + 2
sp.Name = time.." C"
until zig.Value == true
end
if zig.Value == true then
repeat wait(5)
time.Value = time.Value - 2
sp.Name = time.." C"
until zig.Value == false
end
end
What this does is edit the name every time the repeat..until loop runs. However, another way to do this would be a .Changed event
local sp = script.Parent
local time = script.Parent.Parent.Current
local zig = game.Workspace.A.Zig.Value
time.Changed:connect(function() --Will fire every time the value of 'time' changes.
sp.Name = time.." C"
end)
while wait() do
if zig.Value == false then
repeat wait(5)
time.Value = time.Value + 2
until zig.Value == true
end
if zig.Value == true then
repeat wait(5)
time.Value = time.Value - 2
until zig.Value == false
end
end
Hope i helped!

You should always have a wait() attached to your while loops - outside of arguments - to prevent crashing.
In the meantime, you may want to invest in some different loops for different situations.
For example:
local sp = script.Parent
local time = script.Parent.Parent.Current
local zig = game.Workspace.A.Zig.Value
while wait() do
if zig.Value == false then
repeat wait(5)
time.Value = time.Value + 2
until zig.Value == true
end
if zig.Value == true then
repeat wait(5)
time.Value = time.Value - 2
until zig.Value == false
end
sp.Name = time.." C"
end
