Value.Changed not working

Help and Feedback Scripting Support
#21

Heyo! Could you share with us what you used to define the “Value” variable?

#22

It is a server script inside of a part in workspace

#23 
--Plastic is the NumberValue
local Value = script.Parent.Plastic
#24

Are you changing the value with a local script or a server script?

#25

He said serverscript a reply ago.

I am changing the value with a serverscript

#27

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

So I think this works.

#28

Can you add a print right before the changed event, is it possible that the script never makes it to that line?

#29

try to just define the value object but not the value itself, like local a = workspace.Value and then you can do a.Value.Changed:Connect(function() end) idk if it will work but give it a try

#30

Question, how do you change value of the numbervalue to test if it works? Do you use a LuaSourceContainer object like Localscript/ServerScript or do you use the studio command bar or do you edit it directly from object browser in run mode?

#31

It is getting to the line that the while true do loop is at

Inside the while loop could you also add this line:

Value.Value += 1
#33

I made a script that waits 10 seconds and then after that it changes the value

#34

I see, and where is that script located?

#35

Post the full script, there is probably an error.

The script is inside of workspace

#37

First script You can also change the wait for how long between the number change.

while true do
script.Parent.Value = script.Parent.Value + 3
wait(3)
end

Second Script is

script.Parent.Changed:Connect(function(V)
print(V)
end)

#38

Apparently It needed to be changed inside the same script first to notice anything was changing for some reason

#39

Your other script probably was referencing the wrong value.

#40

Change the first script with this

script.Parent.Changed:Connect(function(V)
print(V)
end)
while true do
script.Parent.Value = script.Parent.Value + 3
wait(3)
end

And disable second script, let me know if that worked.
What I can tell is one script is a LocalScript and the other one is a Script, and they’re wrong, or, you’re trying to use LocalScripts on workspace objects or something.
