Changed And GetPropertyChangedSignal dosent work

Help and Feedback Scripting Support
#1

the code

CanSpectate.Changed:Connect(function(Value)
	if Value == true then
		print("visible")
		script.Parent.Visible = true
	else
		if Value == false then
			print("not visible")
			script.Parent.Visible = false
		end
	end
end)

i also tried

CanSpectate:GetPropertyChangedSignal("Value"):Connect(function()
	if CanSpectate.Value == true then
		print("visible")
		script.Parent.Visible = true
	else
		if CanSpectate.Value == false then
			print("not visible")
			script.Parent.Visible = false
		end
	end
end)
type or paste code here

both of them dosent work . i changed the value from serverside script

#2

is there any errors in the output?

#3

unfortunately No. the button visible shall be false if canspectate value is false

#4

Is the code above from a local script or a server script?

Is the code that CHANGES the value from a local script or a server script?

#5

You can do this:

CanSpectate.Changed:Connect(function(value)
   print(value)
   script.Parent.Visible = value
end)
#6

the code that i gave is a “localscript” i changed the CanSpectate.Value from ServerScript

#7

alr ill give it a try i did some debugging with prints() but it seems to not worked

#8

Can you please put a print statement before and after the .Changed function

i.e.

print("BEFORE")
CanSpectate:GetPropertyChangedSignal("Value"):Connect(function()
	if CanSpectate.Value == true then
		print("visible")
		script.Parent.Visible = true
	else
		if CanSpectate.Value == false then
			print("not visible")
			script.Parent.Visible = false
		end
	end
end)
print("AFTER")
#9

update: it only prints if i reset or die

#10

alright it printed out Before And Visible

#11

probably because you put this in a different script

Humanoid.Died:Connect(function()
   path.to.CanSpectate.Value = false
end)

here is the localscript (full)

local ReplicatedStorage  = game:GetService("ReplicatedStorage")
local Promise = require(ReplicatedStorage:WaitForChild("Modules"):FindFirstChild("Promise"))
local CanSpectate = ReplicatedStorage:WaitForChild("Values"):FindFirstChild("CanSpectate")
local button = script.Parent
local spectateframe = button.spectate_frame
local playername = button.spectate_frame:FindFirstChild("player_name")
local openNow = true

local position = 1

local player_list = {}

local currentCamera = workspace.CurrentCamera


CanSpectate:GetPropertyChangedSignal("Value"):Connect(function()
	if CanSpectate.Value == true then
		print("visible")
		script.Parent.Visible = true
	else
		if CanSpectate.Value == false then
			print("not visible")
			script.Parent.Visible = false
		end
	end
end)


local function updatePlayerList(exemptPlayer)
	Promise.new(function(resolve,reject)
		for i,v in pairs(game:GetService("Players"):GetPlayers()) do
			if v ~= exemptPlayer and not table.find(player_list,v) then
				table.insert(player_list,v)
			end
		end
	end):catch(warn)
	
	
end

local function updateCamera(playerSubject)
	Promise.new(function(resolve,reject)
		playername.Text = tostring(playerSubject)
		currentCamera.CameraSubject = playerSubject.Character
	end):catch(warn)
end


updatePlayerList()
game:GetService("Players").PlayerAdded:Connect(function()
	updatePlayerList()
end)

game:GetService("Players").PlayerRemoving:Connect(function(plr)
	updatePlayerList(plr)
end)




button.MouseButton1Up:Connect(function()
	if openNow == true then
		openNow = false
		spectateframe.Visible = true
		position = 1
		updateCamera(player_list[1])
	else
		openNow = true
		spectateframe.Visible = false
		updateCamera(game:GetService("Players").LocalPlayer)
	end
end)


button.spectate_frame.left.MouseButton1Up:Connect(function()
	position = position -1
	if position <1 then
		position = #player_list
	end
	
	updateCamera(player_list[position])
	
end)


button.spectate_frame.right.MouseButton1Up:Connect(function()
	position = position +1
	if position > #player_list then
		position = 1
	end
	updateCamera(player_list[position])
end)
