using a value to see how many visible image labels?

I am currently making a sort of SCP Game in and I am currently stuck on a part of code in which I hope you guys can help me with.

So, I have this, a blink bar system.

I've already done the core code in which per sound it goes down by one, here.

I basically want to get the number on Blink (x/20) and choose how many visible image labels there should be (also out of 20).

There are twenty of these image labels and I want only a certain visible at a time.

If the blink is on 15, only 15 will show. If the blink is on 2, only 2 will show - and so on.

But I wasn't sure where to start, I'm hoping you guys could help me out?

(I feel like it's something to do with :GetChildren() and counting the children with #numberOfChildren, but I wasn't very sure).

Assuming you're trying to have images that bind with the seconds, you can give each a name 1-20. Then you can do:

for i,image in pairs(LOCATION_OF_IMAGES) do
    if image:IsA("ImageLabel") then
        if tostring(Assets.Stats.Blink.Value) == image.Name then
            -- Do something here with the specific image
            -- EXAMPLE: image.Visible = true
        else
            -- Reset the image back to its original state
        end
    end
end

Also note that they should be ImageLabels. If they are something else, please replace IsA("ImageLabel") with the type of the object. chexburger 358 — 4y
