What is wrong with shield script

Help and Feedback Scripting Support

So im really confused on why this isn’t working, it isn’t destroying the shield for some reason and it isn’t working, why?

game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(player)
local char = player.Character or player.CharacterAdded:Wait()
local shield = char:WaitForChild("shield")

player.BulletHit:GetPropertyChangedSignal("Value"):Connect(function() 
if player.BulletHit.Value < 0 then 
		player.BulletHit.Value = 0
	end
end)

shield.Touched:Connect(function(hit)
	if hit.Parent == hit.Parent:FindFirstChild("Bullet") then
		player.BulletHit.Value = player.BulletHit.Value - 1 
			player.BulletHit.Changed:Wait()
			if player.BulletHit.Value <= 0 then
				shield:Remove()
				print("removed")
				end
			end	
		while shield do
		wait()
		player.Character.Humanoid.Health = 100
	end
		if not shield then
			player.Character.Humanoid.Health = 100
		end
	end)
end)

This line might be causing the next line to not run if the BulletHit value doesn’t change. Try to remove this line and see what happens.

Wait is this a server script or local script

i figured out the problem, i had to move it to another place in a script. Thanks so much for helping and sorry to waste any of your time

Ah I am assuming it was placed under a yielding function?

It was no problem at all, glad you found a solution :+1:
