  1. What do you want to achieve?
    I would like to have the bar change color depending on its size.

  2. What is the issue?
    The bar isn’t changing color at all.

  3. What solutions have you tried so far?
    I have tried looking and tried multiple ways to fix but nothing is working.

It shows an error in the output saying trying to compare a Udim2 < Udim2.

Below is the code.

Location: child of the frame aka bar in a localscript

local bar = script.Parent;

if bar.Size > UDim2.new(0.75, 0, 1, 0) then
	bar.BackgroundColor3 = Color3.new(0, 0.666667, 0);
elseif bar.Size > UDim2.new(0.50, 0, 1, 0) and bar.Size < UDim2.new(0.75, 0, 1, 0) then
	bar.BackgroundColor3 = Color3.new(0.784314, 1, 0.192157);
elseif bar.Size > UDim2.new(0.25, 0, 1, 0) and bar.Size < UDim2.new(0.50, 0, 1, 0) then
	bar.BackgroundColor3 = Color3.new(1, 0.756863, 0.188235);
elseif bar.Size > UDim2.new(0, 0, 1, 0) and bar.Size < UDim2.new(0.25, 0, 1, 0) then
	bar.BackgroundColor3 = Color3.new(0.666667, 0, 0);
end

Any and all help would be nice and thank you in advanced.

Try Color3.fromRGB()
[character] [character]

local bar = script.Parent;

elseif bar.Size.X.Scale > 0.75 then
	bar.BackgroundColor3 = Color3.new(0, 0.666667, 0);
elseif bar.Size.X.Scale > 0.5 then
	bar.BackgroundColor3 = Color3.new(0.784314, 1, 0.192157);
elseif bar.Size.X.Scale > 0.25 then
	bar.BackgroundColor3 = Color3.new(1, 0.756863, 0.188235);
elseif bar.Size.X.Scale > 0 then
	bar.BackgroundColor3 = Color3.new(0.666667, 0, 0);
end

I tried both of the ideas the 2nd post got rid of the error in the output but with this new code the bar still isn’t changing color.

code updated:

local bar = script.Parent;

if bar.Size.X.Scale > 0.75 then
	bar.BackgroundColor3 = Color3.fromRGB(0, 170, 0);
elseif bar.Size.X.Scale > 0.5 and bar.Size.X.Scale < 0.75 then
	bar.BackgroundColor3 = Color3.fromRGB(218, 227, 43);
elseif bar.Size.X.Scale > 0.25 and bar.Size.X.Scale < 0.5 then
	bar.BackgroundColor3 = Color3.fromRGB(163, 108, 30);
elseif bar.Size.X.Scale > 0 and bar.Size.X.Scale < 0.25 then
	bar.BackgroundColor3 = Color3.fromRGB(170, 0, 0);
end

The code is only running once.
To make it run indefinitely, simply put the if statement in a while loop

while wait() do
        --your code here
end
