Choice value not changing! (Attempt 3)

[thatrandomnoob23]

Hello!

I was working on a voting system for my game until I ran into a problem.

In ReplicatedStorage, there is a folder called Variables which contains variables.
The main ones being Choice1, Choice2 and Choice3.

The purpose of these values is to store the map names and then get taken by a LocalScript which then changes the map name text (In the vote GUI) to the map’s name.

But, whenever it tries to change the value, the value is still empty and therefore the text is just MapName.

Stuff (LocalScript in the Choice1,2 or 3 frames)

task.wait(10)

local Player = game:GetService("Players").LocalPlayer
local Voted = Player:WaitForChild("voted")
local ReplicatedStorage = game:GetService("ReplicatedStorage")
local Votere = ReplicatedStorage:WaitForChild("RemoteEvents"):WaitForChild("Vote")
local Variables = ReplicatedStorage:WaitForChild("Variables")
local Boolean = ReplicatedStorage:WaitForChild("Booleans"):WaitForChild("RevealVotes")
local Choice = Variables:WaitForChild("Choice1")
local VoteChoice = Variables:WaitForChild("VoteChoice1")
local VotesCounter = script.Parent:FindFirstChild("Votes")

local Map = Choice.Value
if Choice.Value then
	script.Parent.MapName.Text = Map.Name
end
Choice:GetPropertyChangedSignal("Value"):Connect(function()
	local Map = Choice.Value
	if Choice.Value then
		script.Parent.MapName.Text = Map.Name
	end
end)

if Voted.Value == true then
	script.Parent.Choice1.Visible = false
else
	script.Parent.Choice1.Visible = true
end

Voted:GetPropertyChangedSignal("Value"):Connect(function()
	if Voted.Value == true then
		script.Parent.Choice1.Visible = false
	else
		script.Parent.Choice1.Visible = true
	end
end)

script.Parent.Choice1.MouseButton1Click:Connect(function()
	Votere:FireServer(Choice.Name)
end)

if Boolean.Value == true then
	VotesCounter.Visible = true
	for i = 1,20 do
		VotesCounter.Text = "Votes: "..math.random(0,10)
		wait()
	end
	VotesCounter.Text = "Votes: "..VoteChoice.Value
else
	VotesCounter.Visible = false
	VotesCounter.Text = "Votes: "
end

Boolean:GetPropertyChangedSignal("Value"):Connect(function()
	if Boolean.Value == true then
		VotesCounter.Visible = true
		for i = 1,20 do
			VotesCounter.Text = "Votes: "..math.random(0,10)
			wait()
		end
		VotesCounter.Text = "Votes: "..VoteChoice.Value
	else
		VotesCounter.Visible = false
		VotesCounter.Text = "Votes: "
	end
end)

MainScript (Script in ServerScriptService)

			local Character = player.Character
			if not Character then
				print(player.Name.." has no character!")
			else
				local HumanoidRootPart = Character.HumanoidRootPart

				else
					HumanoidRootPart.CFrame = Clonemap.Spawn.CFrame + Vector3.new(0,3,0)
				end
			end
			wait()

Thanks! Waiting for a reply.

I’m not the one to call people stupid, but I…

When that is said, great to hear that you figured out the solution to your problem.

If you want help with figuring out, how to stop the voting, when over half of the playing players have voted on the same choice, then just let me know.
