Alright so basicaly im making a backrooms game in which i got a int value that if its too low, the player die’s. to prevent the player from dying i made a tool. and it has a script but it doesn’t work. i don’t why.

local tool = script.Parent
local mouse = game.Players.LocalPlayer:GetMouse()
tool.Equipped:Connect(function()
	mouse.Button1Down:Connect(function()
		workspace.Script.Brain.Value = workspace.Script.Brain.Value + 50
	end)
end)

Try print debugging and then look what specifically is not printing, also here so you dont have to write it out:

local tool = script.Parent
local mouse = game.Players.LocalPlayer:GetMouse()

tool.Equipped:Connect(function()
    print("Tool equipped")
    
    mouse.Button1Down:Connect(function()
        print("Button clicked")
        local brainValue = workspace.Script.Brain.Value
        print("Before:", brainValue)
        
        brainValue = brainValue + 50
        workspace.Script.Brain.Value = brainValue
        
        print("After:", brainValue)
    end)
end)

idk why but it says that “equipped” is not a valid member of the tool.

nevermind. i didnt see that the script was in the handle not the tool. fixed it now.

#7

i noticed a problem. so i also got a script that every 2 seconds the brain.value goes down by 1. but when i activate the tool it just, goes back to normal.

#8

do you know how i would fix that?

#9

Just use .Activated, dont know why u using getmouse()
Hold on let me edit this

local tool = script.Parent
local mouse = game.Players.LocalPlayer:GetMouse()
tool.Activated:Connect(function()
		workspace.Script.Brain.Value = workspace.Script.Brain.Value + 50
end)

test this, wrote this here

Could you provide a code snippet?

yeah alright. im just tryna figure out how to fix that.

#12

whatchu mean by code snippet. im kind of new to scripting so i don’t know what you mean.

#13

you mean like show the code???

#14

heres the script in workspace

local brain = script.Brain
while true do
	wait(2)
	brain.Value = brain.Value - 1
	if brain.Value == 90 then
		game.Lighting.ColorCorrection.Brightness = -0.1
		if brain.Value == 80 then
			game.Lighting.ColorCorrection.Brightness = -0.2
			if brain.Value == 70 then
				game.Lighting.ColorCorrection.Brightness = -0.3
				if brain.Value == 60 then
					game.Lighting.ColorCorrection.Brightness = -0.4
					if brain.Value == 50 then
						game.Lighting.ColorCorrection.Brightness = -0.5
						if brain.Value == 40 then
							game.Lighting.ColorCorrection.Brightness = -0.6
						end
					end
				end
			end
		end
	end
end

Yes to see why the tool is getting normal again, just like you said

#16

and here’s the script you’ve sent me before (idk why im sending this)

local tool = script.Parent

tool.Equipped:Connect(function()
	print("Tool equipped")

	tool.Activated:Connect(function()
		print("Button clicked")
		local brainValue = workspace.Script.Brain.Value
		print("Before:", brainValue)

		brainValue = brainValue + 50
		workspace.Script.Brain.Value = brainValue
		
		
			print("After:", brainValue)
		end)
	end)
#17

what do you mean by goes to normal? as in, you use the tool and then it (sanity) no longer goes down anymore?

#18

I recommend using this code (if it works)

local brain = script.Brain

while true do
    wait(2)
    
    -- Decrease brain value by 1
    brain.Value = brain.Value - 1
    
    -- Update lighting brightness based on brain value
    local brightnessValue = -0.1 * math.floor((100 - brain.Value) / 10)
    game.Lighting.ColorCorrection.Brightness = brightnessValue
    
    if brain.Value <= 0 then
        -- Handle the player's death or other consequences here
        break -- Exit the loop if brain.Value reaches 0 or below
    end
end
#19

look. its goes down and lets say the int’s value is “200” and when i use the tool it becomes 250. but after the 2 seconds i goes down again and becomes 199 instead of 249.

sry for my english by the way.
