Hunger / Thirst System Not Working

Help and Feedback Scripting Support

Hi I am trying to make a hunger and thirst system where your health goes down when the hunger value reaches 0. But I am not getting any errors and it is not working, any help would be greatly appreciated.

local decreaseFrequency = 2
local decreaseAmount = 30


game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(player)
	local Thirst = Instance.new("IntValue", player)
	Thirst.Name = "Thirst"
	Thirst.Value = 100
	
	local Hunger = Instance.new("IntValue", player)
	Hunger.Name = "Hunger"
	Hunger.Value = 100
	
	player.CharacterAdded:Connect(function()
		Hunger.Value = 100
		Thirst.Value = 100
	end)
	
	while wait(decreaseFrequency)do
		Hunger.Value -= decreaseAmount
		Thirst.Value -= decreaseAmount
		if Hunger.Value == 0 then
			player.Humanoid.Health -= 2
		end
	end
end)
2

Try printing around the script to see where its not working (expecially in the while loop).

Also, Humanoid isn’t part of Player, its part of Player.Character

4

It is the if statement that isn’t working I put a print inside of it, and when the hunger value reached 0 it didn’t print.

Oh, I found out why, try changing Hunger.Value == 0 to Hunger.Value <= 0

Since your decreasing 30 hunger at a time, the hunger value would be -20 not 0.
