"for i =" loop break?

Help and Feedback Code Review

I was wondering if it’s possible to stuff a “Break” into a “for i =”
and if so, How i would fit it in here

DeathClock = 0
Ran = math.random(20, 30) -- Random time system

print(Ran)

for hypo = 1, Ran do
	
	script.Parent.BackgroundTransparency -= 0.9 / Ran  -- Death Clock Calculation
	DeathClock += 1
	print(DeathClock)
	wait(1)
	
end

if DeathClock == Ran then -- "Death" System
	
	game.Players.LocalPlayer:Kick("You Suffered from Hypothermia.")
	
end

i’m trying to make it so when you teleport somewhere in the game, or perhaps when you touch something the death clock stops and resets for the player who teleported.

is this what you wanted?

DeathClock = 0
Ran = math.random(20, 30) -- Random time system

print(Ran)

for hypo = 1, Ran do

	script.Parent.BackgroundTransparency -= 0.9 / Ran  -- Death Clock Calculation
	DeathClock += 1
	print(DeathClock)
	task.wait(1)
	
	if DeathClock == Ran then
		-- add whatever code here
		break -- ends the loop
	end

end

-- for i loop here

from what you want i took out the player kick function. you could add it back in the if statement if you want

DeathClock = 0
Ran = math.random(20, 30) -- Random time system

print(Ran)

for hypo = 1, Ran do
	
	script.Parent.BackgroundTransparency -= 0.9 / Ran  -- Death Clock Calculation
	DeathClock = hypo - 1 -- Try this (-1 because deathclock starts at 0 but hypo start at 1)
	print(DeathClock)
	wait(1)
	-- Hypo is is incremented by one every time this loop and hypo will always equal Ran at the end
end

if DeathClock == Ran then -- "Death" System
	
	game.Players.LocalPlayer:Kick("You Suffered from Hypothermia.")
	
end

This might work since the loop exits once its done
But if your looking to run a for loop one time try

for i =1,1 do
--Your code
end

You can’t necessarily ‘break’ a for loop since it’ll run how many times needed until i is satisfied I think. Hope this helped even a little bit

Nevermind I didn’t read the last part of your question where you want to basically exit the loop on a function or something else here I used a bool value, so

local reset = false -- You can change the value of reset using a function or use a BoolValue Instance

DeathClock = 0
Ran = math.random(20, 30) -- Random time system

print(Ran)

for hypo = 1, Ran do
	
	script.Parent.BackgroundTransparency -= 0.9 / Ran  -- Death Clock Calculation
	DeathClock += 1
	print(DeathClock)
	wait(1)

	if reset == false then
        continue 
       else
        break
    end

end

if DeathClock == Ran then -- "Death" System
	
	game.Players.LocalPlayer:Kick("You Suffered from Hypothermia.")
	
end

An if statement could help let me know if if it did or didn’t
