Changing int value not working

[foxnoobkite]

ok, i must be missing something REALLY obvious but can’t seem to find it, its just a simple value changing thingy, it prints e but not changing the value

wait()
local Stone = script.Parent.Metal.Value
a = true
script.Parent.At.Break.Triggered:Connect(function(plr)
	print("e")
	--if a then
		--a = false
	Stone = Stone - 1
	--	wait(1)
	--	a = true
	--end
end)

script.Parent.Metal.Changed:Connect(function(plr)
	if Stone > 0 then
		
		if Stone == 1 then
			script.Parent.Parent.Thing.Transparency = 0.75
			script.Parent.Parent.Thing2.Transparency = 0.75
			script.Parent.Parent.Thing3.Transparency = 0.75
		elseif Stone == 2 then
			script.Parent.Parent.Thing.Transparency = 0.50
			script.Parent.Parent.Thing2.Transparency = 0.50
			script.Parent.Parent.Thing3.Transparency = 0.50
		elseif Stone == 3 then
			script.Parent.Parent.Thing.Transparency = 0.25
			script.Parent.Parent.Thing2.Transparency = 0.25
			script.Parent.Parent.Thing3.Transparency = 0.25
		elseif Stone == 4 then
			script.Parent.Parent.Thing.Transparency = 0
			script.Parent.Parent.Thing2.Transparency = 0
			script.Parent.Parent.Thing3.Transparency = 0
		end
	end
	
	
	if Stone == 0 then
		plr.Resources.Metalp.Value = plr.Resources.Metalp.Value + 1
		script.Parent.At.Break:Destroy()
		script.Parent.At.Collect:Destroy()
		script.Parent:Destroy()
	end
end)

What value is it not changing? Could you be more specific…

[Forummer]

Stone.Value = Stone.Value - 1

Don’t forget to get the value you need to index the “Value” property.

[NoParameters (Para)]

Change

local Stone = script.Parent.Metal.Value
a = true
script.Parent.At.Break.Triggered:Connect(function(plr)
	print("e")
	--if a then
		--a = false
	Stone = Stone - 1
	--	wait(1)
	--	a = true
	--end
end)

To

local Stone = script.Parent.Metal
a = true
script.Parent.At.Break.Triggered:Connect(function(plr)
	print("e")
	--if a then
		--a = false
	Stone.Value -= 1
	--	wait(1)
	--	a = true
	--end
end)

Edit: Because of the variable change, you’d have to change the if statements to use Stone.Value instead of Stone.

Edit 2: Here’s an example of it all:

task.wait() -- task.wait() > wait()
local Stone = script.Parent.Metal
local deb = true
script.Parent.At.Break.Triggered:Connect(function(plr)
    if deb then
        deb = false
        Stone.Value -= 1
        task.wait(1)
        deb = true
    end
end)

script.Parent.Metal.Changed:Connect(function(value)
    if value > 0 then
        local transparency = 1 - (value/4)
        script.Parent.Parent.Thing.Transparency = transparency
        script.Parent.Parent.Thing2.Transparency = transparency
        script.Parent.Parent.Thing3.Transparency = transparency
    elseif value == 0 then
        -- .Changed doesn't pass the player who changed the value
        -- you'd need another method for giving the player's stats
        script.Parent:Destroy()
    end
end)
