Is the script placed inside the requested TextLabel, and, is the TextLabel’s text made of numbers only?

The text label have to contain letters.

Remove that “+” then.
If it doesn’t work I will try to rewrite it.

Then Ig you can create a NumberValue inside the TextLabel, named ‘CurrentNumber’, and try this:

local runService = (game:GetService("RunService"));
function Lerp(a, b, m)
	return a + (b - a) * m
end;

local SPEED = (15);
local numberGoal = (0); -- // Change it when needed to update the display

local currentNumber = (script.Parent:WaitForChild("CurrentNumber"));
function TextUpdate(dt)
	currentNumber.Value = math.ceil(Lerp(currentNumber.Value, numberGoal, dt * SPEED))
	script.Parent.Text = tostring(currentNumber.Value)
end;

runService.Heartbeat:Connect(TextUpdate)

Edit: Worked very well or me. It basically doesn’t rely on the TextLabel’s text, considering it has string-characters too, and not only numbers, therefore causing the issue you mentioned above. Instead, it relies on the ‘CurrentNumber’ value, which’s value is ALWAYS going to be a number, therefore not breaking the code.

Id guess the main reason theyre all erroring is because everyone is trying to assume what you havent explained, to be completely blunt about it

Can you explain EXACTLY what youre trying to do, exactly what your current setup is, and other important stuff like:
About how often is the value changing? How quickly do you want it to move? Etc

The script spams errors because Heartbeat is a faster replacement of wait(). Please correct me if I am wrong

.Heartbeat fires every time a Frame is fired, therefore, if average FPS is 60 fps, it’s going to print out
the error if it reoccurs constantly approximately 60 times a second.

Oh and the value is in the workspace in a folder. I don’t want the value to be animated. ONLY the text on the surfacegui.

You can use TweenService to tween the position of the GUI when the value is being updated

i don’t want to tween the position of the gui

What does the output say, and where did you put the script?
Edit: You don’t need to change CurrentNumber, but numberGoal.

I put the script inside the text label
