Getting error for: if door.Transparency = 0 then ?
Hi, I'm trying to make a door script, and I wanna check if the door's transparency is 0 and then change it to 1, and if it's not, change it to 0. Here's my code:
01 | --Serverside part for door tween, yeah. |
02 |
03 | --Stuffs and services. |
04 | local ReplicatedStorage = game:GetService("ReplicatedStorage") |
05 | local revent = ReplicatedStorage.DoorEvent |
06 | local door = script.Parent |
07 |
08 | local function test() |
09 | if door.Transparency = 0 then--This is where I was getting the error. |
10 | print("hi") |
11 | end |
12 |
13 |
14 |
15 | end |

I don't really understand why I can't check if the door is transparent and then do a specific function. this is the error by the way: 20:30:05.143 - Workspace.Door1.Script:9: Expected 'then' when parsing if statement, got '='

Edit: Sorry forgot to put an explanation in
So for what 7z99 was saying putting a single '=' sign is more for setting values. In order to compare information you need to use a '=='.

To elaborate, the "=" is to change the value. "==" is to compare the two. 7z99 203 — 5y

Oh, thanks. I was always wondering what the difference, when I put == sometimes, I get an error saying something about a function, so that helps. VoidKeyword 111 — 5y
