Help with damage gui

Help and Feedback Scripting Support

Greetings fellow developers! I got this script from a video. This script makes it so that when someone takes damage, the damage will show. I’m trying to make it so, instead of showing a lot of -2 -2 -2 -2, it would show just one -10. How would I go about doing that? Thanks.


local tweenInfo = TweenInfo.new(0.3, Enum.EasingStyle.Quint, Enum.EasingDirection.InOut)

local damageForColours = 
	{
		[25] = Color3.fromRGB(255, 196, 101),
		[50] = Color3.fromRGB(255, 234, 0),
		[75] = Color3.fromRGB(255, 140, 0),
		[100] = Color3.fromRGB(255, 0, 0),
	}

game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(plr)

	plr.CharacterAdded:Connect(function(char)

		local humanoid = char:WaitForChild("Humanoid")
		local currentHealth = humanoid.Health

		humanoid.HealthChanged:Connect(function(health)

			if health < currentHealth and humanoid:GetState() ~= Enum.HumanoidStateType.Dead then

				local healthLost = math.floor(currentHealth - health)


				local damageIndicatorGui = Instance.new("BillboardGui")
				damageIndicatorGui.AlwaysOnTop = true

				damageIndicatorGui.Size = UDim2.new(1.5, 0, 1.5, 0)

				local offsetX = math.random(-20, 20)/10
				local offsetY = math.random(-20, 20)/10
				local offsetZ = math.random(-20, 20)/10
				damageIndicatorGui.StudsOffset = Vector3.new(offsetX, offsetY, offsetZ)

				local damageIndicatorLabel = Instance.new("TextLabel")

				damageIndicatorLabel.AnchorPoint = Vector2.new(0.5, 0.5)
				damageIndicatorLabel.Position = UDim2.new(0.5, 0, 0.5, 0)

				damageIndicatorLabel.TextScaled = true
				damageIndicatorLabel.BackgroundTransparency = 1
				damageIndicatorLabel.Font = Enum.Font.GothamBlack

				damageIndicatorLabel.Text = healthLost

				damageIndicatorLabel.Size = UDim2.new(0, 0, 0, 0)

				for damage, colour in pairs(damageForColours) do

					if healthLost <= damage then 

						damageIndicatorLabel.TextColor3 = colour
						damage = 100
					end
				end

				damageIndicatorLabel.Parent = damageIndicatorGui

				damageIndicatorGui.Parent = char.HumanoidRootPart

				damageIndicatorLabel:TweenSize(UDim2.new(1, 0, 1, 0), "InOut", "Quint", 0.3)


				wait(0.3)

				local guiUpTween = tweenService:Create(damageIndicatorGui, tweenInfo, {StudsOffset = damageIndicatorGui.StudsOffset + Vector3.new(0, 1, 0)})

				local textFadeTween = tweenService:Create(damageIndicatorLabel, tweenInfo, {TextTransparency = 1})
				
				guiUpTween:Play()
				textFadeTween:Play()
				
				game:GetService("Debris"):AddItem(damageIndicatorGui, 0.3)
			end
			wait(1)
			currentHealth = humanoid.Health
		end)
	end)
end)

Check if a DamageIndicatorGui already exists in HumanoidRootPart before creating a new one, and add the value in the textlabel to your current value by using tostring() on the text.

what is the script that causes damage because your gui script seems to work fine.
