Fog color - How to change?

Help and Feedback Scripting Support
#1

I need white fog at bay and black fog at night image

local oh,om = 5,50	-- Open Time (hours,minutes)
local ch,cm = 18,50	-- Close Time (hours, minutes)

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
			script.Parent.FogColor = script.Black
		else
			script.Parent.FogColor = script.White
		end
	elseif (ot > ct) then
		if (l:GetMinutesAfterMidnight() >= ot) or (l:GetMinutesAfterMidnight() <= ct) then
			script.Parent.FogColor = script.Black
		else
			script.Parent.FogColor = script.White
		end
	end
end

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

script.Parent.FogColor = script.Black
else
script.Parent.FogColor = script.White

I think your problem is that you are referencing the “White” and “Black” object, not their values.

Here’s a fixed version:

local oh,om = 5,50	-- Open Time (hours,minutes)
local ch,cm = 18,50	-- Close Time (hours, minutes)

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
			script.Parent.FogColor = script.Black.Value --here is your mistake
		else
			script.Parent.FogColor = script.White.Value --you should reference the value, not the object
		end
	elseif (ot > ct) then
		if (l:GetMinutesAfterMidnight() >= ot) or (l:GetMinutesAfterMidnight() <= ct) then
			script.Parent.FogColor = script.Black.Value --add it here aswell
		else
			script.Parent.FogColor = script.White.Value --and add it here too
		end
	end
end

Also, if that doesn’t work, then make sure the “White” and “Black” are Color3 Values.

Scripts cannot be executed from Lighting. Place it in ServerScriptService and recode it according to the new location.
