Hiya Developers!

Here i have a script, which randomly selects a number then prints it the the output. How would i make it so once the number is printed, i can update a IntValue of a object?

Here is the script:

 local randomVars = {1, 2, 3} 
local randomVar = randomVars[math.random(#randomVars)]
print(randomVar)
randomVar = randomVars[math.random(#randomVars)]
print(randomVar)

Thanks!

Provided you have the IntValue already set up, you could do something like this:

local IntValue = IntValueObjectHere 
local randomVars = {1, 2, 3} 

local function ChangeInt(Number)
    IntValue.Value = Number
end

local randomVar = randomVars[math.random(#randomVars)]
print(randomVar)

ChangeInt(randomVar)

I didn’t work, this is what i received:

Here is the code:

local IsPlatformPicked = workspace.PlatformsList.Platform1.IsPlatformPicked.Value
local randomVars = {1, 2, 3} 

local function ChangeInt(Number)
	IsPlatformPicked.Value = Number
end

local randomVar = randomVars[math.random(#randomVars)]
print(randomVar)

ChangeInt(randomVar)

You have the Value saved in this variable here, you just only need to reference the IntValue object and not the actual IntValue.Value property


local IsPlatformPicked = workspace.PlatformsList.Platform1.IsPlatformPicked --.Value (BEGONE)

local randomVars = {1, 2, 3} 

local function ChangeInt(Number)
	IsPlatformPicked.Value = Number
end

local randomVar = randomVars[math.random(#randomVars)]
print(randomVar)

ChangeInt(randomVar)
