Image won't change depending on health

I’ve been trying to make a heart icon that changes images depending on the player’s health. Basically, being more broken and broken.

Here’s my script:

local plr = game.Players.LocalPlayer
local character = plr.Character or plr.CharacterAdded:Wait()
local humanoid = character:FindFirstChild("Humanoid")
local image = script.Parent

humanoid.HealthChanged:Connect(function(newvalue)
	if newvalue <= 100 then
		image.Image = "https://www.roblox.com/library/7917732450/100hpicon"
	end
	
	if newvalue <= 75 then
		image.Image = "https://www.roblox.com/library/7917733668/75hp"
	end
	
	if newvalue <= 50 then
		image.Image = "https://www.roblox.com/library/7917734933/50hp"
	end
	
	if newvalue <= 35 then
		image.Image = "https://www.roblox.com/library/7917736453/35hpicon"
	end
	
	if newvalue <= 20 then
		image.Image = "https://www.roblox.com/library/7917737527/20hpicon"
	end
end)

No matter what I do, the image won’t change when the health is 75, or 50, etc. I’m really clueless as to what I did wrong, so any help would be appreciated. (Yes, the local script is inside the image).

FOR SOLUTION: Make sure to add a > at and newvalue = (>=)

To change the image, the normal URL won’t work. Instead, you need to replace all

image.Image = "https://www.roblox.com/library/id/name" (Normal URLS)

to

image.Image = "rbxassetid://7917737527" (rbxassetid://)

I Will try it, I usually forget to use that URL lol

#4

Still doesn’t work, thank you for letting me know about the URL error though!

#5

perhaps try to use elseif instead of creating several different if statements then. also, try printing the newvalue variable just to make sure.

example would be

if v1 == v2 then
--do stuff
elseif v3 == v4 then
--do stuff
end

Edit: Forgot to ask, did you get any error? Because there is a ) missing on the last end.

#6

Did your player take damage and it won’t update or are you changing the health through the properties window?

#7

You can use a white image and change it’s ImageColor3 property instead.

#8

Ah no, I just forgot to select that when copying the script to paste it here, my bad.

#9

Player is taking damage and won’t update.

#10

Dunno if you can do that with different images, they’re all IDs for different images

Example:
75hp
100hpicon

#11

Oh, I though you are making a health bar that changes it’s color based on health.

#12

No worries, already done that!

(The health bar will change color depending on health, it’s the blue-ish outline around the circle)

#13

The elseif in this case would jsut make the first true and then it won’t continue since it is 100 or less

#14

oh yeah, didn’t notice that. in that case you would have to add an and statement to make sure the HP are in the specific area.

Example:

if newvalue <= 100 and newvalue > 75 then
-- do stuff
end

Still doesn’t seem to work… Maybe it’s the humanoid.HealthChanged? I probably used it in a wrong way and I’m not realizing it.

#16

I don’t see anything wrong with it right now. Try printing newvalue when the function starts and check if and what it prints, perhaps that helps.

#17

I get this, any idea on what it means?

The humanoid is nil. Perhaps it’s not loaded in when it’s needed, so replace :FindFirstChild() with :WaitForChild() in Line 3.

#19

It does something, however the image just disappears, doesn’t appear again even if I healed to max HP

Edit: It re-appears when you respawn

#20

I don’t know if this helps at all but Humanoid.HealthChanged doesn't seem to work after the player dies and respawns - #3 by BostonWhaIer
