How can I replace the checker with something that loops until a specific outcome is met?
I have this set of code here. It works all the way until this part:
for i,v in pairs(mouse.Target:GetDescendants()) do
I want to know how I can replace this with a semi-infinite loop that checks until a certain outcome is made. Heres the full code:
local player = game.Players.LocalPlayer
local mouse = player:GetMouse()
local mouses = {
"http://www.roblox.com/asset/?id=409468479"
}
local rs = game:GetService("RunService")
local ObjectInfo = script.Parent:WaitForChild("ObjectInfo")
local TextInfo = ObjectInfo:WaitForChild("TextLabel")
local debounce = true
--
mouse.Icon = mouses[1]
--
rs.RenderStepped:Connect(function()
if debounce then
if mouse.Target ~= nil then
if mouse.Target:FindFirstChild("NameLabel") then
debounce = false
local Start = UDim2.new(0.422, 0,1, 0)
local Goal = UDim2.new(0.422, 0,0.874, 0)
TextInfo.Text = mouse.Target.NameLabel.Value
TextInfo.Position = Start
local tween = TextInfo:TweenPosition(
Goal,
Enum.EasingDirection.InOut,
Enum.EasingStyle.Quad,
1,
true
)
wait(1)
for i, v in pairs(mouse.Target:GetDescendants()) do
print(v)
if v.Name ~= "NameLabel" then
TextInfo.Position = Goal
local tween = TextInfo:TweenPosition(
Start,
Enum.EasingDirection.InOut,
Enum.EasingStyle.Quad,
1,
true
)
wait(1)
print("true")
debounce = true
else
print("false")
debounce = false
end
end
end
else
TextInfo.Text = ""
end
end
wait()
end)
Hopefully you guys can help and maybe find a few other errors I might of not seen.

What are you trying to achieve here? Tweeting a UI if the mouse is over it? NickIsANuke 217 — 4y

The code checks if the mouses target part has a NameValue in it, then tweens some text up displaying the NameValues's string. The part that Foridex 46 — 4y

is having the issue is that the for i,v in pairs do part only checks once, so it gets softlocked and the text stays where it is. I need the checker to loop infinitely until the mouse leaves the part with the value. Foridex 46 — 4y

Try:
local success
repeat
for i, v in pairs(mouse.Target:GetDescendants()) do
print(v)
if v.Name ~= "NameLabel" then
TextInfo.Position = Goal
local tween = TextInfo:TweenPosition(
Start,
Enum.EasingDirection.InOut,
Enum.EasingStyle.Quad,
1,
true
)
wait(1)
success = true
debounce = true
else
success = false
debounce = false
end
wait()
until success = true
Sorry for the formatting, I’m on mobile and I didn’t test it, basically we define success as a blank variable, and keep checking if the loop sets it to true. You get the idea.

Yeah the formatting is on the crazy side, Im unsure how I can put the code in, mind placing it in with the full code so I understand it better? Foridex 46 — 4y
