Gui Text button to change Time/Lighting

Help and Feedback Scripting Support

#1

Hello, I’m trying to make a text button that when you clicked it, it changes the time/lighting/ambience/tintcolor/brightness to the numbers in the code. But, it doesn’t seem to work, if anyone can help me figure out why it wouldn’t work that would be a great help.

This is a GUI with a text button that changes setting of the day like the time and lighting.

local lightingsunset = game.Lighting

local lightingsuncorrection = game.Lighting.ColorCorrection

local clocksuntime = game.Lighting.ClockTime

--Sunset

script.Parent.MouseButton1Click:Connect(function()

game.Lighting.ClockTime = clocksuntime

game.Lighting.ColorCorrection = lightingsuncorrection

game.Lighting.Ambient = lightingsunset

-- Lighting ambient setting

lightingsunset.Ambient.R = 220

lightingsunset.Ambient.G = 121

lightingsunset.Ambient.B = 21

-- Lighting fog setting

lightingsunset.FogColor.R = 226

lightingsunset.FogColor.G = 175

lightingsunset.FogColor.B = 112

-- Lighting brightness

lightingsunset.Brightness = 60

-- Color correction setting

lightingsuncorrection.Contrast(-0.1)

lightingsuncorrection.TintColor(255, 131, 69)

lightingsuncorrection.Saturation(-0.1)

lightingsuncorrection.Brightness(0.1)

-- Clock time setting

clocksuntime = 17.6

end)

Whats the error? It may be that you not using waitforchild() for allow time for instances to load but I’d like to see what your errors are first.

local LightingService = game:GetService("Lighting")
local ColorCorrection = LightingService:WaitForChild("ColorCorrection")

script.Parent.MouseButton1Click:Connect(function()
	LightingService.Ambient = Color3.fromRGB(220, 121, 21)
	LightingService.FogColor = Color3.fromRGB(226, 175, 112)
	LightingService.Brightness = 60
	LightingService.ClockTime = 17.6
end)

you can not use or assign the values without adding = in between. and for color you have to add what type of color u r using e.g rgb, hsv etc.

i have fixed your script for you. so you can use it and hopefully understand it better.

To make this code more efficient I would use it in a function all the settings for the Lighting service and just connect it on the textbutton activated function like this.

--// Services \\--
local Lighting = game:GetService("Lighting")

--// Variables \\--
local Button = script.Parent:WaitForChild("Button")

--// Functions \\--
local function SetLighting()
    -- Add all the settings needed here
end)

--// Events \\--
Button.MouseButton1Clicked:Connect(function()
    SetLighting()
end)
