Could you perhaps give any error messages so we can help you with your problem.

I cannot tell any since it gives no errors, honestly.

Please do not take pictures of code. Please copy and paste it into a code block next time. With that aside, I would use Instance:GetPropertyChangedSignal.

Your code is rather messy. The .Changed event works like this:

local ValueInstance = ... --//typeof(ValueInstance) == "Instance"
ValueInstance.Changed:Connect(function(value)
    script.Parent.Text = string.format("Value: %s", tostring(value))
end)

I would use Instance:GetPropertyChangedSignal() instead.

The link was rather confusing to me, to be honest. I don’t know a lot of scripting.

Someone please explain over what to do all I tried is confusing and leads to nowhere for me. :confused:

Do you have any experience with programming?

11

No, I barely know anything, I only know basic commands…

An end is expected to close a function, you left that out for the function Value.

It is also better to use different names for variables when required, to improve readability and help debugging.

try this


  local ValueObject = script.Parent.Value -- ValueBase object
  
  local function OnChanged(newValue)
        print(newValue)
        script.Parent.Text = "Value: " .. newValue
  end
 
  ValueObject.Changed:Connect(OnChanged)

Okay, I will be adapting it over. Will be telling results…

It worked, thanks. Finally I can do it function.
