Hi

so i’m Still kinda new to roblox studio and i want to know how
how do I set 1 Variable to true Once Find 1 value True inside table (used for Loops)?

#2

dictionary table:


local yourTable={
  ['element1']=false,
  ['element2']='abcdefg',
  ['element3']=true,
  ['element4']=false
}

for index,key in pairs(yourTable)do -- loop through the table
  if key==true then
-- if you write 'if key then' then everything except 'false' will be found, even if it is a string
    print(index,key,' is true')
  end
end

default table:


local yourTable={
  false,'abcdef',false,true,false
}

for i,k in pairs(yourTable)do
  if k==true then
    print(k,' is true')
  end
end

I see but what if the elements is changed every 0.1 sec to random values?

Sorry what I mean is what If the Elements is a Part on The Workspace and changed color to random color every 0.5 sec and How do set the Variable to true Once Find a color of Red and if none of the part is red the var turn to false?

#5

I see you want a constant check.
Spawn a function where you use a while loop to check every 0.1 sec.

OK I’ll do some code rn but I’m on mobile so expect done typos

local var = false
task.spawn(function()
while var == false do
for i, v in ipairs(table) do
if v==true then
var = true
end
end
task.wait(0.1)
end
end)

Sorry I cannot tab on phone…
I had misread ur topic I fixed the code now.

local parts = {
    workspace.Part1,
    workspace.Part2,
    workspace.Part3,
    workspace.Part4,
}

-- every second set the parts to a random color
while true do
    local redAmount = 0
    -- loop all parts in the parts table
    for i, part in parts do
        -- get random red, green and blue values
        local r, g, b = math.random(), math.random(), math.random()
        -- set the parts color
        part.Color = Color3.new(r, g, b)
        -- if there is more then 50% red in the part add 1 to the redAmount value
        if r > 0.5 then redAmount += 1 end
    end
    -- set the intValue inside of ReplicatedStorage to redAmount so other script can find out how many red parts there is
    game.ReplicatedStorage.IntValue.Value = redAmount
    task.wait(1)
end

this will set a intvalue to the amount of parts that are red

then to find out if there are any read parts all you do is

if game.ReplicatedStorage.IntValue.Value == 0 then
    print("There are no red parts")
else
    print("There are" , game.ReplicatedStorage.IntValue.Value, "red parts")
end
