Comparing Udim2 value's

while true do
	wait(1)
	script.Parent.Size = script.Parent.Size - UDim2.new(0.2,0,0,0)
	if script.Parent.Size <= UDim2.new(1.172, 0,0.52, 0) then
		
		break
	
		
	end
end

Why does this come up with an error?

Could you tell us what the error is? Also, is this a local script for a GUI?

This is the error: Players.littlestuffin.PlayerGui.UI.TL.hungerimg.bar.LocalScript:4: attempt to compare userdata

And yes, It is a local script for a GUI.

To compare positions, I think you may need to manually check each individual property of the UDim2.

You can’t actually compare UDim2 values because they are table values. You would be better off comparing the actual values using the .Y value and the .X value. I had this issue a few days ago and this is the code I came up with that worked (I’m only comparing the Y value here but hopefully you will get the idea!

	for _, v in pairs (script.Parent.Frame:GetChildren())do
		spawn(function()
			if v:IsA("TextLabel")and v.Name == 'Template'then
				if v.Position.Y.Offset > 200  then
					v:Destroy()
				else
					local newpo = v.Position.Y.Offset + 20
					v.Position = UDim2.new(0,0,0,newpo)
				end
			end
		end)
	end

Hello, thank you for answering my problem. I would give you the solution thing, however Haukly said it first lol.

I don’t think comparison operators are allowed for UDim2s. Like what @topdog_alpha and @Haukly said, you may find more luck comparing the individual properties of the UDim2.

   if script.Parent.Size.X.Scale <= 1.172 and script.Parent.Size.Y.Scale <= 0.52 then
      --stuff
   end

UDim2 is not a table, it is an object with properties. It can be created from the UDim2 class and it’s also considered a datatype. Although tables are objects as well, there’s a distinct difference between them and UDim2.
