How do I stop this While True Do loop?
There are the proper variables in place btw
Anyways, this script is supposed to make a block strobe and stuff, but I can't get it to stop. I try to break the loop but it does nothing and keep strobing. What am I missing here?
function strobe()
s:Play()
local parts = a:GetChildren()
for i,v in pairs(parts) do
if v.name == "Strobe" then
spawn(function(f)
while true do --Setting up a loop to cycle through
v.Material = "Neon"
v.PointLight.Brightness = v.PointLight.Brightness == 0 and 5 or 0;
wait(0.03)
if t.Screen.SurfaceGui.MainFrame.GrayThing.ImageLabel.ImageButtonOff.MouseButton1Down == true then
break
end
end
end)
end
end
end
t.Screen.SurfaceGui.MainFrame.GrayThing.ImageLabel.ImageButtonOn.MouseButton1Down:Connect(function()
strobe()
end)
c.MouseClick:Connect(function(clicker) --Linking a function to the click of the handle
strobe()
end)
Thanks!

.MouseButton1Down isnt a boolean, its an event theking48989987 2147 — 5y

But how would I stop the loop and return the blocks to being static? MustangHeart 67 — 5y

--You can stop while true do making a variable true and changing to false
local loop = true
--Example using click
script.Parent.MouseButton1Click:connect(function()
loop = false
end)
while loop do
wait()
print("Hello")
end

i dont see the point of setting loop to false in the actual while loop itself, it just stops it after one iteration theking48989987 2147 — 5y

and place the event above the loop, anything under an infinite loop wont run theking48989987 2147 — 5y
