Cloud fading in

Help and Feedback Scripting Support
#1

How can I make it that the clouds slowly fade in?

local oh,om = 6,18	-- Open Time (hours,minutes)
local ch,cm = 18,00	-- Close Time (hours, minutes)
local p = workspace.Terrain

local l = game:service("Lighting")
if (om == nil) then om = 0 end
if (cm == nil) then cm = 0 end


function TimeChanged()
	local ot = (oh + (om/60)) * 60
	local ct = (ch + (cm/60)) * 60
	if (ot < ct) then
		if (l:GetMinutesAfterMidnight() >= ot) and (l:GetMinutesAfterMidnight() <= ct) then
			p.Clouds.Cover = 0
			p.Clouds.Cover = 0.1
			p.Clouds.Cover = 0.2
			p.Clouds.Cover = 0.3
			p.Clouds.Cover = 0.4
			p.Clouds.Cover = 0.5
			p.Clouds.Cover = 0.6
		else
p.Clouds.Cover = 0.6
		end
	elseif (ot > ct) then
		if (l:GetMinutesAfterMidnight() >= ot) or (l:GetMinutesAfterMidnight() <= ct) then
			p.Clouds.Cover = 0.6
			p.Clouds.Cover = 0.5
			p.Clouds.Cover = 0.4
			p.Clouds.Cover = 0.3
			p.Clouds.Cover = 0.2
			p.Clouds.Cover = 0.1
			p.Clouds.Cover = 0
		else
p.Clouds.Cover = 0
		end
	end
end

TimeChanged()
game.Lighting.Changed:connect(function(property)
			if (property == "TimeOfDay") then
				TimeChanged()
			end
		end)

use TweenService for a smooth fading

I added the TweenService into the script and it didn’t help. Maybe I added it wrong or something like that?

local oh,om = 6,18	-- Open Time (hours,minutes)
local ch,cm = 18,00	-- Close Time (hours, minutes)
local p = workspace.Terrain
local TweenService = game:GetService('TweenService')
	
local l = game:service("Lighting")
if (om == nil) then om = 0 end
if (cm == nil) then cm = 0 end


function TimeChanged()
	local ot = (oh + (om/60)) * 60
	local ct = (ch + (cm/60)) * 60
	if (ot < ct) then
		if (l:GetMinutesAfterMidnight() >= ot) and (l:GetMinutesAfterMidnight() <= ct) then
			TweenService:Create(
				p.Clouds, -- UI object you're tweening
				TweenInfo.new(10), -- Amount of seconds
				{Cover = 0.6} -- Goal
			):Play() 
	
		else
p.Clouds.Cover = 0.6
		end
	elseif (ot > ct) then
		if (l:GetMinutesAfterMidnight() >= ot) or (l:GetMinutesAfterMidnight() <= ct) then
			TweenService:Create(
				p.Clouds, -- UI object you're tweening
				TweenInfo.new(10), -- Amount of seconds
				{Cover = 0} -- Goal
			):Play() 
		else
p.Clouds.Cover = 0
		end
	end
end

TimeChanged()
game.Lighting.Changed:connect(function(property)
			if (property == "TimeOfDay") then
				TimeChanged()
			end
		end)

i see, try structuring your TweenService block like this:

local TweenService = game:GetService("TweenService")
local goal = {
      Transparency == 0 -- what you want at the end
}

local TweenInfo = TweenInfo.new(
      5, -- time
      Enum.EasingStyle.Linear, --the style 
      Enum.EasingDirection.Out, -- the easing direction
      1,-- repeat
      false, -- reverse
      1 -- delay
)

local tween = TweenService:Create(YOUR OBJECT, TweenInfo, goal) --your object aka clouds

tween:Play()

this is just a rough reference, try not to copy it directly

	local ot = (oh + (om/60)) * 60
	local ct = (ch + (cm/60)) * 60

		if (l:GetMinutesAfterMidnight() >= ot) and (l:GetMinutesAfterMidnight() <= ct) then
			tween1:Play()
	
		else

		end
	elseif (ot > ct) then

			tween2:Play()

p.Clouds.Cover = 0
		end
	end
end

TimeChanged()
game.Lighting.Changed:connect(function(property)
			if (property == "TimeOfDay") then
				TimeChanged()
			end
		end)

I’m not a scripter so if there is something wrong with this then you know

Supposed to be

local TweenInfo =TweenInfo.new(
	5, -- time
	Enum.EasingStyle.Linear, --the style 
	Enum.EasingDirection.Out, -- the easing direction
	1,-- repeat
	false, -- reverse
	1 -- delay
)
