I am trying to make an intermission and in round timer, but it ended up not working. What did I do wrong?

What do you mean with “not working”?

Is an error in the output or nothing happens?

#4

After reading both scripts for a while (and doing other things lol), I think the error is in Status line in the local script due not using the WaitForChild function.

Also Changed event has the new value as a parameter so its unnecessary to get the value.
Personally, I would change this:

IntValue.Changed:Connect(function()
    print(IntValue.Value)
end)

To this:

IntValue.Changed:Connect(function(newValue)
    print(newValue)
end)

You could put a few prints throughout the script to see which line is not working.

Ok, when I finish school I will try these out! Thank you!

Would I have to change these? (InRound, Status)

#8

No

never gonna give you up. 30 chaaars

#9

I am confused on where you found the part you want me to change. I am unable to find it in my script.

#10

never gunna let you down. 30 chaaars

#11 
local Status = game.ReplicatedStorage.Status
local TimerDisplay = script.Parent.TimerDisplay

Status.Changed:Connect(function()
    TimerDisplay.Text = Status.Value
end)

Change that to this:

local Status = game.ReplicatedStorage:WaitForChild("Status")
local TimerDisplay = script.Parent:WaitForChild("TimerDisplay")

Status.Changed:Connect(function(newText)
    TimerDisplay.Text = newText
end)

I tried what you said, but it is still not starting the intermission.

#15

Is Status a StringValue?

I tried your code, noticed that it doesnt work, noticed that Status was an IntValue, changed it to a StringValue and everything started working.

#16

Let me go on ahead and try that. Still not working for me. I even changed the status to a stringvalue

#17

Do you mind if I see a screenshot of what it looks like?

#18

Ok:

Once I finish school I will try this out!

task.spawn(function()

local replicatedStorage = game:GetService("ReplicatedStorage")
local statusMsg = replicatedStorage:WaitForChild("Status")

statusMsg:GetPropertyChangedSignal("Value"):Connect(function()
	textBox.Text = statusMsg.Value
end)

InRound is a BoolValue instance, Status is a StringValue instance. This script is very familiar I must say.

I am going to test these right now!
