My issue is that whenever I start the game the bar would always move to a position I do not want it in (reference of the bar while testing it vs the bar in studio)
local Hunger = game:GetService("Players").LocalPlayer:WaitForChild("Hunger")
local Bar = script.Parent.Bar
local Text = script.Parent.Number
while Hunger.Value>0 do
wait()
Bar.Size = UDim2.new(0,75,0,(-Hunger.Value / 100 * 200))
Text.Text = Hunger.Value.."%"
if Hunger.Value <= 20 then
Bar.BackgroundColor3 = Color3.fromRGB(170, 0, 0)
end
end
local plr = game.Players.LocalPlayer
local Bar = script.Parent.Bar
local Text = script.Parent.Number
local Hunger = plr:WaitForChild("leaderstats"):WaitForChild("Hunger")
local HungerEvent = game:GetService("ReplicatedStorage"):WaitForChild("updateHunger")
local Ts = game:GetService("TweenService")
local info = TweenInfo.new(0.2, Enum.EasingStyle.Sine, Enum.EasingDirection.InOut)
HungerEvent.OnClientEvent:Connect(function()
Bar.Size = UDim2.fromScale(1, Hunger.Value / 100)
Text.Text = Hunger.Value .. "%"
end)
Hunger.Changed:Connect(function(newVal)
Ts:Create(Bar, info, {Size = UDim2.fromScale(1, newVal / 100)}):Play()
Text.Text = newVal .. "%"
end)
The issue was you weren’t updating the client when the player joined the game, so the bar would just be at that position. So when the player join it will fire the client, and when the hunger value is changed it will update. I forgot to send the server code so let me do that real quick:
game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(plr)
local ls = Instance.new("Folder", plr)
ls.Name = "leaderstats"
local Hunger = Instance.new("IntValue", ls)
Hunger.Name = "Hunger"
Hunger.Value = 50
game:GetService("ReplicatedStorage"):WaitForChild("updateHunger"):FireClient(plr)
end)
Yep, make sure you check if the Position / Size of the Gui isn’t set on the offset because it can ruin your Gui’s Size or Position when you try and switch between both.
for better assistance:
-- These Random numbers are Examples...
X = 50, -- The First Int is the Actual position
Y = 0
X_Offset = 100 -- The Second Int is the Offset of its actual position
Y_Offset = 0
-- So Here is how you can deternine which is which:
X , X_Offset , Y , Y_Offset
Hello and thank you for the reply
When you said to not set the Position or Size on the offset I changed the size change to the Y scale instead of the Y offset . But however I got this result. (Code i used)
local Hunger = game:GetService("Players").LocalPlayer:WaitForChild("Hunger")
local Bar = script.Parent.Bar
local Text = script.Parent.Number
while Hunger.Value>0 do
wait()
Bar.Size = UDim2.new(0,75,(-Hunger.Value / 100 * 200),295)
Text.Text = Hunger.Value.."%"
if Hunger.Value <= 20 then
Bar.BackgroundColor3 = Color3.fromRGB(170, 0, 0)
end
end
Sorry for the trouble, but can you elaborate more please?
I’ve tried setting the position of the bar to negatives and the bar completely disappears when testing and in studio
I didn’t know what you meant for " i believe if you have / Division, you do * Multiplication?" as I’m pretty sure I already have that unless you mean something else
In studio, set the position to 0, 0, 0, 0 and the size to 1, 0, 0.5, 0. What is the max value for the hunger? Does the Hunger object represent a percentage already? Since you’re setting the bar’s height on the Y axis, you’re gonna want to set its size on the Y scale to the currenthunger/maxhunger. Current hunger divided by its max will give you a percentage, which you can use for the scale since it also takes a percentage. So if your current hunger is 50% of the max, the bar will cover 50% of the its parent.
local Hunger = game:GetService("Players").LocalPlayer:WaitForChild("Hunger")
local Bar = script.Parent.Bar
local Text = script.Parent.Number
while Hunger.Value>0 do
wait()
Bar.Size = UDim2.new(1, 0, Hunger.Value/200, 0)
Text.Text = Hunger.Value.."%"
if Hunger.Value <= 20 then
Bar.BackgroundColor3 = Color3.fromRGB(170, 0, 0)
end
end
I am assuming here that Hunger.Value is not already a percentage (0 through 1) and that 200 is the max hunger value.
I set the position to 0, 0, 0, 0 and the size to 1, 0, 0.5, 0 in Studio and changed up some code. The Hunger object is an IntValue stored in player and the percentage is the player’s hunger.I didn’t know why I had 200 as a value as I tried mimicking this from a different script and didn’t know that changing only the Y axis was currentvalue/maxvalue. After setting this up, I got this result
This is because your bar isn’t parented to that black bar right to the side. Change its parent to the black bar.
I am assuming “bar” is the orange bar and that “frame” is the black frame. After doing this change local Bar = script.Parent.Bar to local Bar = script.Parent.Frame.Bar
