	wait(1)
	script.Parent.Highlight.OutlineColor = Color3.fromRGB(160, 83, 255) -- 2
	wait(1)
	script.Parent.Highlight.OutlineColor = Color3.fromRGB(137, 83, 255) -- 3
	wait(1)
	script.Parent.Highlight.OutlineColor = Color3.fromRGB(123, 83, 255) -- 4

You need to put the script into StarterCharacterScript for it to work.
You can also use the following code (bellow) as it is simpler. However, if you’re looking to make a rainbow Highlight, I highly recommend to use a tween instead.

local Highlight = script.Parent:WaitForChild("Highlight", 60)
local HighlightColor = {
	[1] = Color3.fromRGB(189, 82, 255),
	[2] = Color3.fromRGB(160, 83, 255),
	[3] = Color3.fromRGB(137, 83, 255),
	[4] = Color3.fromRGB(123, 83, 255),
	[5] = Color3.fromRGB(99, 85, 255),
	[6] = Color3.fromRGB(82, 105, 255),
	[7] = Color3.fromRGB(82, 137, 255),
	[8] = Color3.fromRGB(82, 174, 255),
}

while true do
	for Count = 1, #HighlightColor, 1 do
		Highlight.OutlineColor = HighlightColor[Count]
		task.wait(1)
	end
	
	for Count = #HighlightColor - 1, 2, -1 do
		Highlight.OutlineColor = HighlightColor[Count]
		task.wait(1)
	end
end

Please read whole comment instead of being triggered from the tamest judgment this the hell of a code could get
Also please provide errors in output becouse that not possible to judge or predict anything known such little information
I still think that you are rofling becouse it cant be real :wilted_flower: :headstone:
Anyway if you are looking for rainbow effect there is a simple formula for that:

Color3.fromHSV(os.clock() % 1,1,1)

if you want to slow it down you can:

0.05*os.clock()%1

Being a beginner is not a sin, but being rude and assuming the worst of a person is.

You seem to completely miss my point and already assume, as you quote:

Being a beginner is not a sin, but rushing into production while not knowing any basics and disappointing people isn’t great either.

What I meant by that is people nowadays completely do not understand that you “can’t work on a nuclear power plant without education.”
People want to do everything while absolutely never training for it.
I didn’t explain previously what I meant, so I guess it was fair of you to assume that, and now I hope that you understood what I meant from the beginning.
I, for example, was not touching anything in the first year or so and was actively studying API and language to not make a half-working product in the end.

Conclusion: Be more self-critical and question yourself more, such as, “Maybe I should train more before going into production.”

You accused them of “shitposting” and “writing the worst code.” I didn’t assume, but I did read.

What production? OP is in Studio.
Who do you think OP disappointed by simply asking for help? This isn’t a company meeting.

By production i refer to publishing game/plugin/model etc

Production usually means making a product in a professional setting.

If not in a professional setting, and OP is making a game to learn, then where’s the problem?
