Hi! I have this table and i’d like to set the “variable” in here to the value of an IntValue. How would i do this?

local items = {
  	I want this changed = 0,
    I dont want this changed = 5
}

thanks!

IntValue:GetPropertyChangedSignal("Value"):Connect(function()
    items["I want this changed"] = IntValue.Value
end)

Items[1].value = another value
Or Items[1] = value

Not 100% sure this works

Doesnt work, here’s the full script:

local items = {
["Nitro"] = 0
}

game.ReplicatedStorage.Events.Bought.OnClientEvent:Connect(function(price, name)
print("received event.")
print(name)
for i, v in pairs(script.Parent:GetChildren()) do
	print("going trough...")
	if v.Name == name then
		print("v == name")
		v.Amount.Value += 1
		v.ItemAmount.Text = "Amount: "..v.Amount.Value
		
		v.Amount:GetPropertyChangedSignal("Value"):Connect(function()
			items[tostring(v.Name)] = v.Amount.Value
		end)
		
		game.ReplicatedStorage.Events.SyncItems:FireServer(items)
	end
end
end)

You need to put this above that code

items[tostring(v.Name)] = v.Amount.Value

I don’t understand what you mean?

You need to run that once before as GetPropertyChangedSignal only fires when it changes

items[tostring(v.Name)] = v.Amount.Value
v.Amount:GetPropertyChangedSignal("Value"):Connect(function()
    items[tostring(v.Name)] = v.Amount.Value
end)
