Maximum event re-entrancy depth exceeded for NumberValue.Changed

Yes, I know this is very similar to another post but that didn’t really help

while task.wait(0.1) do
	
	if game.ServerStorage.ReactorStats.Tempature == game.ServerStorage.ReactorStats.MeltdownTemp then
		local click = Instance.new("ClickDetector")
		click.Parent = script.Parent
		local chance = nil
		click.MouseClick:Connect(function()
		
			local chance = math.random(1,2)
			if chance == 1 then
				game.ReplicatedStorage.remotes.SCRAMStatus:FireAllClients("success")
				repeat
					game.ServerStorage.CoolantRods.CoolantRods.Value += 14.2857142857

				until
				task.wait(7)
			else
				game.ReplicatedStorage.remotes.SCRAMStatus:FireAllClients("failed")
			end
			
		end)
	end
end

anyone know why the error happens and how I can fix it?

Why are you creating a new separate individual RBXScriptConnection 10 times a second

I want it to update fast so I made it update a lot

wait… could I do tempature.Changed:Connect(function)…

Having more events doesn’t make it update faster. In fact, you might be slowing down your connections by doing this. Just connect once to your .MouseClick event.

I want it to add a clikDetector when it meets a requirement

It’s going to add a new click detector every 0.1 seconds that pass. What you need to do instead is check and see if the new value in .Changed just passed the meltdown threshold. I’ve written it up, now you just need to fill in the rest of it.

local currTempValue: NumberValue = game.ServerStorage.ReactorStats.Temperature
local meltdownTemp: number = game.ServerStorage.ReactorStats.MeltdownTemp.Value

local isMeltingDown: boolean = false

currTempValue.Changed:Connect(function(newValue: number)
	if newValue >= meltdownTemp and not isMeltingDown then
		-- Just began melting down
		isMeltingDown = true

		-- you fill in the rest of the code here

	elseif newValue < meltdownTemp and isMeltingDown then
		-- Just stopped melting down
		isMeltingDown = false
		
		-- here, you revert all of the changed added by the meltdown
		
	end
end)
