Because you did "not var", what it does is it equates "var" as being true since it exists, so the not statement made it the opposite of true which is false, and false is not equal to "-" so it didn't work. If you get rid of the "not" in front of the var, it should check to see if the string var is equal to "-" and if it is then it will execute the code.
local var = "-"
print(var)
--output, -
if var == "-" then
warn("hang on a minute...")
ryt = ryt - 1
end
