Game not functioning properly (ignoring if statements)

Help and Feedback Scripting Support

Hi, I’m creating a zombie wave game and I am nearly finished writing out all the code, but when I test the game the script is ignoring most of the if statement’s tasks. The game will start with the intermission timer but then it will keep repeating that instead of saying wave 1. Here is the script:

local Players = game:GetService("Players")
local RS = game:GetService("ReplicatedStorage")
local gv = RS.Values.gv
local DiedValue = RS.Values.DV
local wave = RS.Values.Wave
local ZombiesRemaining = RS.Values.ZombiesRemaning
local TimeToWait = RS.Values.TimeToWait.Value
local IGT = RS.Values.InGameTime
local Restart = true
local KillAllZombies = RS.Values.KillAllZombies
local GIP1 = RS.Values.gameInProgress1

local playersInRound = {}
local playersDisconnected = {}
local playerDies = {}
local lobbyTime = 20
local isOverrided = false
local inRound = false

Players.PlayerRemoving:Connect(function(Player)
	table.insert(playersDisconnected, Player)
	if table.find(playersInRound, Player) then
		table.remove(playersInRound, table.find(playersInRound, Player))
		if #playersInRound == 0 then
			print("Everyone has died!")
			inRound = false
		end
	end
end)

local function doRound()
	inRound = true
	playersInRound = {}
	playersDisconnected = {}
	
	for _, Player in ipairs(Players:GetPlayers()) do
		local Character = Player.Character
		local Humanoid = Character:WaitForChild("Humanoid")
		local HRP = Character:WaitForChild("HumanoidRootPart")
		--HRP.CFrame = CFrame.new(0, 0, 0) --good spawn location
		if GIP1.Value == 1 then
		table.insert(playersInRound, Player)
		Humanoid.Died:Connect(function()
			table.insert(playersDisconnected, Player.Name)
			table.remove(playersInRound, table.find(playersInRound, Player))
			if #playersInRound == 0 then
				print("Everyone has died!")
				inRound = false
					task.wait(1)
				end
			end)
		end
	end
end

function Loop()
	while true do
		wave.Value = 1
		Restart = false
		for i = lobbyTime, 0, -1 do
			gv.Value = i
			wait(1)
		end
		
		local value = RS.Values.MainGame
		GIP1.Value = 1
		doRound()
		
		local function MyCoroutine()
			while true do
				task.wait(1)
				value.Value -= 1
				IGT.Value = value.Value
				print("Timer:", value.Value)
			end
		end
		
		local RunMC = coroutine.wrap(MyCoroutine)
		RunMC()
		
		if ZombiesRemaining.Value > 0 then
			repeat
				task.wait()
			until
			ZombiesRemaining.Value <= 0
		end
		if ZombiesRemaining.Value <= 0 then
			wave.Value = wave.Value + 1
			value.Value = 120
			ZombiesRemaining.Value = 10 + wave.Value
			if TimeToWait ~= 0.5 then -- If it hasn't reached 0.5 yet
				TimeToWait = TimeToWait - 0.1 -- Decrease the current TimeToWait by 0.1
			else
				TimeToWait = 0.5
			end
			
			if inRound == false then
				Restart = true
				DiedValue.Value = "Game Over"
				KillAllZombies.Value = true
				GIP1.Value = 0
				task.wait(3)
				break
			end
			if IGT == 0 then
				Restart = true
				DiedValue.Value = "Game Over"
				KillAllZombies.Value = true
				GIP1.Value = 0
				task.wait(3)
				break
			end
		end
	end
end

if Restart == true then
	Loop()
end

task.spawn(function()
	while task.wait() do
		if not inRound then
			doRound()
		end
	end
end)

You are only ever checking the Restart variable once, so after the script has iterated over it, it never repeats. Only the spawned task itself is repeating and tbh you don’t need to spawn a separate task for that.

Try changing that last section of code to:

while task.wait() do
-- Setup the Round
	print("inRound ?", inRound ) -- prints a confirmation of the inRound variable value	
	if not inRound then
		print("Going to inRound ")
		doRound()
	end

-- Setup the Loop
	print("Restart?", Restart ) -- prints a confirmation of the Restart variable value
	if Restart == true then
		print("Going to Loop")
		Loop()
	end
end

A great & simple way to check if your if conditions are being met is to add a print statement after the if. That way you can check that the condition is met and also confirm the state of any variables being checked.
