Chance Script not working correctly

Help and Feedback Scripting Support
#1

Hello, I have three identical dummies with all the same parts and each has this seperate script which is supposed to make a random number called chance and if the chance is equal to a certain number then drop the item but when printing it only creates the chance variable once and prints it once. Thanks for any help.

local dummy = script.Parent

dummy.Humanoid.HealthChanged:Connect(function()
	if dummy.Humanoid.Health <= 0 then
		local chance = math.random(1,10)
		print(chance) -- Prints chance variable only once even when another dummy is destroyed
		if chance == 5  then-- 100% chance 
			local gd = game.ReplicatedStorage.GoldenBall:Clone()
			gd.Parent = workspace
			gd.Position = dummy.HumanoidRootPart.Position
			dummy:Destroy()
		elseif chance <= 5 then
			local ammo = game.ReplicatedStorage.Dodgeball:Clone()
			ammo.Parent = workspace
			ammo.Position = dummy.HumanoidRootPart.Position
			dummy:Destroy()
		else
			dummy:Destroy()
		end
		end
	end)

The output in this example printed only 7 once

Instead of using HealthChanged and checking the health replace all of that with a Humanoid.Died event. HealthChanged should also work though, and it passes the new health as a variable (like the BasePart.Touched event passes the touched part). Maybe if you checked that instead of Humanoid.Health, then you would have more prints.

it only checks if the dummy has less than 0 health lol

so change it to > 0

No, this is supposed to happen on death. That’s why it’s <=.
