Hello,
my “for i,v” funtion is not effecting every value
Here is my script:
if #BadPlates > 0 then
for i,Plate in pairs(BadPlates) do
Plate.Transparency = 1
Plate.CanCollide = false
Plate.Highlight:Remove()
end
wait(3)
for i,Plate in pairs(BadPlates) do
Plate.Transparency = 0
Plate.CanCollide = true
end
BadPlates = {}
end
Any solutions?
local PlatesFolder = workspace.PlatesFolder -- Folder that contains all plates
for _, Plate in pairs(PlatesFolder:GetChildren()) do -- Loops through everything in folder
if Plate:IsA("Part") then -- Checks if 'Plate' is a part
...
end
end
I am not detecting if it is a part I am detecting if it is a bad plate
Is ‘bad plate’ a part? Can you please elaborate?
I have a folder that holds 100 plates. I then randomly pick some of them and add them to a table. Now I want to go through the table and do what I want to the bad plates
local folder = FOLDER_PATH
local BadPlates = {}
for i = 1,#folder do
local RNG = math.random(1,2)
if (RNG%2 == 0) then
table.insert(BadPlates,folder[i])
end
end
for i,v in pairs(BadPlates) do
--whatever you wanna do to them here
end
I believe this is what you’re trying to achieve
In the code shown above, I find the folder with all of the plates. I iterate thru the folder, and each iteration, I pick a number between 1 and 2, inclusive (meaning it can either be 1 or 2). Depending on the chosen number, I put the plate in the “BadPlates” table which can then be used in a for i,v in pairs() loop
EDIT: If you want a max amount of bad plates in your table, you can set that as follows:
local folder = FOLDER_PATH
local MaxBadPlates = 10
local BadPlates = {}
for i = 1,#folder do
local RNG = math.random(1,2)
if (RNG%2 == 0) and #BadPlates < MaxBadPlates then
table.insert(BadPlates,folder[i])
end
end
for i,v in pairs(BadPlates) do
--whatever you wanna do to them here
end
It already randomizes the plates and the problem I have is that not every plate is being effected by what I want to happen in the “For i,v” function.
I’m a bit confused, im assuming there is more to this script, and I would love to see the whole thing so I can understand your conditions.
By the looks of it, it resets BadPlates each loop (if you even loop it, im assuming you do) so if you add more, the previous plates in the list wont be affected.
