accessing global variable crashing game?

Asked by

I have written a piece of code that is in two different scripts, one changes the variable and the other reads it.

script one

closed = game.Workspace.closePressed

function closeGui()

closed = false

end

script two

closed = game.Workspace.closePressed

if closed == true then
...

end
else if closed == false then

end

I'm not sure what you're getting at here, as you have very little code provided, but there is a problem with script two, and that's that you have ended the if statement before you introduced the elseif.

Corrected code:

closed = game.Workspace.closePressed

if closed == true then
...
elseif closed == false then --there is no space in "elseif", that is another problem.
...
end

Well mostly i think its else if change that to elseif and may you put the output so i can see what's wrong? Well, If you can. Subbix -5 — 9y
