Value of distance not updating

[hasoco (Kenpachi Zaraki)]

I tried to make the script print the distance between the player and the part; It only prints out one value.
Here’s the code:

local Players = game:GetService("Players")

Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(plr)
	
	local char = plr.Character or plr.CharacterAdded:Wait()
	
	local humanoidRoot = char:WaitForChild("HumanoidRootPart")
	
	local partfolder = workspace.Folder
	
	for _,v in pairs(partfolder:GetChildren()) do
		
		while wait() do
			
			local distance = (humanoidRoot.Position - v.Position).magnitude
		
			while wait(1) do
			
			print("You are " .. distance .. " studs away from the part!")
			
			end
		end
	end
end)

Here’s a video of it not working:

If you can help, please do. All help is appreciated!

Try this:

for _,v in pairs(partfolder:GetChildren()) do
		task.spawn(function()
		while task.wait(1) do
			local distance = (humanoidRoot.Position - v.Position).magnitude
			print("You are " .. (math.floor(distance*100/100)) .. " studs away from the part!")
		end
end)
	end

(math.floor(distance*100/100)) is just so instead of you having a number like 24.549684359, you have 24.54

Thank you, it worked. Just one question, what does task.spawn do?

To put it simply: Accepts a thread and fire’s it immediately,

Create on Roblox

it also makes it so your code doesn’t yield, like coroutines

Ok, thank you. That’s going to be helpful.
