#1

  1. What do you want to achieve? I’m trying to make a bar that displays how much of a value is left

  2. What is the issue? The part is instantly changing to size 2,2,1 and wont change

  3. What solutions have you tried so far? I tried looking up tutorials on youtube and nothing was showing me what I need to do

while wait(0.1) do
	script.Parent.Size += Vector3.new(2,2,750/script.Parent.Parent.Candy.Value)
end

What about using tweens instead? TweenService

#3

Can’t believe I didn’t think of that, I’ll try that out

#4

It works as a tween, but is there a way to not have the size at Z 1

#5

What do you mean?? Like trying to not change the z value?

#6

No, how do I change it from 1 because its stuck at 1

#7

When you want to change the z just change it in the tween if that’s what you need

Does Candy.Value actually change? What is Candy.Value?
If Candy.Value shows the user’s current candy, you should instead do

function UpdateProgressBar(value: number)
    script.Parent.Size = Vector3.new(2,2,750/script.Parent.Parent.Candy.Value)
end
script.Parent.Parent.Candy.Changed:connect(UpdateProgressBar)
UpdateProgressBar(script.Parent.Parent.Candy.Value)

to take advantage of Roblox’s event-based system.
Of course, you should instead use TweenService:

local TweenService = game:GetService("TweenService")
function UpdateProgressBar(value: number)
    TweenService:Create(
        script.Parent,
        TweenInfo.new(0.1),
        {
            Size = Vector3.new(2,2,750/script.Parent.Parent.Candy.Value)
        }
    ):Play()
    script.Parent.Size = Vector3.new(2,2,750/script.Parent.Parent.Candy.Value)
end
script.Parent.Parent.Candy.Changed:connect(UpdateProgressBar)
UpdateProgressBar(script.Parent.Parent.Candy.Value)
