how do i change the transparency of a beam with a script?
for some reason, it won't let me change the transparency of the beam with the script and i just can't put my finger on the reason edit: I've tried using
1 | repeat |
2 | beam.Transparency = beam.transparency + 0.05 |
3 | until beam.Transparency == 1 |
and removing the "()"
error: "Players.TheRisingTides.PlayerGui.LocalScript:3: bad argument #3 to 21:51:46.122 'Transparency' (NumberSequence expected, got number)" script:
01 | local beam = game.Workspace.lights.Part.Beam |
02 | repeat |
03 | beam.Transparency = (0.55) |
04 | wait(0.05) |
05 | beam.Transparency = (0.6) |
06 | wait(0.05) |
07 | beam.Transparency = (0.65) |
08 | wait(0.05) |
09 | beam.Transparency = (0.7) |
10 | wait(0.05) |
11 | beam.Transparency = (0.75) |
12 | wait(0.05) |
13 | beam.Transparency = (0.8) |
14 | wait(0.05) |
15 | beam.Transparency = (0.85) |

it cannot be capitalized, the word "transparency" always has to be lower case. Sulu710 142 — 5y

Its more complex than you think, Beam,Trail,Particle Emitters' Transparency are not used
in regular numbers but in NumberSequence
so you have to write :
1 | beam.Transparency = NumberSequence.new{ |
2 | NumberSequenceKeypoint.new(1,1) --use these instead and adjust as you will |
3 | } |
Just a quick note, I don't use NumberSequence that much so if I make an error just do your research.
