Basically I want that when someone wins in my game confetti are enabled for like 10 sec. To do this, I put a transparent part above the spawn points (where the players get teleported after the round ends; a round ends when someone wins by touching a part) that contains 7 particle emitters(confetti). Note that by default I set in the confetti properties enabled as false.
This is the script (called ‘Main’):
local Players = game:GetService("Players")
local ReplicatedStorage = game:GetService("ReplicatedStorage")
--//Variables
local vals = ReplicatedStorage.vals
local Sound1 = script.Parent.TimeSound
local Sound2 = script.Parent.Sound2
local s = script.Stat
local blocco = script.Parent.BloccoPartenza
--//Controls
local timeRemaining = 0
--//Tables
local timeValues = {
[3] = "Ready",
[2] = "Steady",
[1] = "Set",
[0] = "Go!",
}
--//Loops
while true do
--//Intermission
timeRemaining = 30
repeat
timeRemaining -= 1
s.Value = "Intermission... ".. timeRemaining
task.wait(1)
until timeRemaining == 0
s.Value = "Game starting!"
task.wait(2)
blocco.CanCollide = true
local mapselect = ReplicatedStorage.Games:GetChildren()
local choose = Random.new():NextInteger(1, #mapselect)
local curnum = 0
for i = 1, #mapselect do
curnum += 1
if curnum == choose then
mapselect[i]:Clone().Parent = workspace
curmap = mapselect[i].Name
s.Value = "We'll be playing "..mapselect[i].Name
end
end
task.wait(3)
--//Start game
local plrs = Players:GetPlayers()
for i, player in ipairs(Players:GetPlayers()) do
pcall(player.LoadCharacter, player)
task.defer(function()
local randomNumber = Random.new():NextInteger(1, 32)
player.Character.Head.CFrame = CFrame.new(workspace.Teleports["Part".. randomNumber].Position)
player.Character.Parent = workspace.Ingame
end)
end
timeRemaining = 4
repeat
timeRemaining -= 1
s.Value = timeValues[timeRemaining]
if s.Value == "Go!" then
blocco.CanCollide = false
end
if s.Value == "Ready" then
Sound2:Play()
end
task.wait(1)
until timeRemaining == 0
timeRemaining = 120
repeat
timeRemaining -= 1
s.Value = timeRemaining.." seconds left"
if timeRemaining == 10 then
Sound1:Play()
end
task.wait(1)
until timeRemaining == 0 or vals.Winner.Value ~= "" or #workspace.Ingame:GetChildren() == 0
--//End game
if vals.Winner.Value ~= "" then
s.Value = vals.Winner.Value.. " has won!"
Players[vals.Winner.Value].leaderstats.Wins.Value = game.Players[vals.Winner.Value].leaderstats.Wins.Value +1
vals.Winner.Value = ""
if #workspace.Ingame:GetChildren() == 0 then
s.Value = "No one has won!"
end
else
s.Value = "No one has won!"
end
if s.Value == vals.Winner.Value.. " has won!" then
for _, conf in workspace.ConfettiGiver:GetChildren() do
conf.Enabled = true
task.delay(10,function()
conf.Enabled = false
end)
end
end
if vals.Winner.Value =="" then
Sound1:Stop()
end
task.wait(3)
local ingame = workspace.Ingame:GetChildren()
for i = 1, #ingame do
local player = Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(ingame[i])
pcall(player.LoadCharacter, player)
end
workspace[curmap]:Destroy()
end
The part in the Main script where I try to enable confetti whenever someone wins:
if s.Value == vals.Winner.Value.. " has won!" then
for _, conf in workspace.ConfettiGiver:GetChildren() do
conf.Enabled = true
task.delay(10,function()
conf.Enabled = false
end)
end
end
This only runs once, probably when the game starts but I can’t tell without seeing the whole script.
To run it every time the value is set, try
s.Changed:Connect(function()
if s.Value == vals.Winner.Value.. " has won!" then
for _, conf in workspace.ConfettiGiver:GetChildren() do
conf.Enabled = true
task.delay(10,function()
conf.Enabled = false
end)
end
end
end)
I dont know why but It doesnt work. Again, no errors in output.
Btw this Is the whole script:
local Players = game:GetService("Players")
local ReplicatedStorage = game:GetService("ReplicatedStorage")
--//Variables
local vals = ReplicatedStorage.vals
local Sound1 = script.Parent.TimeSound
local Sound2 = script.Parent.Sound2
local s = script.Stat
local blocco = script.Parent.BloccoPartenza
--//Controls
local timeRemaining = 0
--//Tables
local timeValues = {
[3] = "Ready",
[2] = "Steady",
[1] = "Set",
[0] = "Go!",
}
--//Loops
while true do
--//Intermission
timeRemaining = 30
repeat
timeRemaining -= 1
s.Value = "Intermission... ".. timeRemaining
task.wait(1)
until timeRemaining == 0
s.Value = "Game starting!"
task.wait(2)
blocco.CanCollide = true
local mapselect = ReplicatedStorage.Games:GetChildren()
local choose = Random.new():NextInteger(1, #mapselect)
local curnum = 0
for i = 1, #mapselect do
curnum += 1
if curnum == choose then
mapselect[i]:Clone().Parent = workspace
curmap = mapselect[i].Name
s.Value = "We'll be playing "..mapselect[i].Name
end
end
task.wait(3)
--//Start game
local plrs = Players:GetPlayers()
for i, player in ipairs(Players:GetPlayers()) do
pcall(player.LoadCharacter, player)
task.defer(function()
local randomNumber = Random.new():NextInteger(1, 32)
player.Character.Head.CFrame = CFrame.new(workspace.Teleports["Part".. randomNumber].Position)
player.Character.Parent = workspace.Ingame
end)
end
timeRemaining = 4
repeat
timeRemaining -= 1
s.Value = timeValues[timeRemaining]
if s.Value == "Go!" then
blocco.CanCollide = false
end
if s.Value == "Ready" then
Sound2:Play()
end
task.wait(1)
until timeRemaining == 0
timeRemaining = 120
repeat
timeRemaining -= 1
s.Value = timeRemaining.." seconds left"
if timeRemaining == 10 then
Sound1:Play()
end
task.wait(1)
until timeRemaining == 0 or vals.Winner.Value ~= "" or #workspace.Ingame:GetChildren() == 0
--//End game
if vals.Winner.Value ~= "" then
s.Value = vals.Winner.Value.. " has won!"
Players[vals.Winner.Value].leaderstats.Wins.Value = game.Players[vals.Winner.Value].leaderstats.Wins.Value +1
vals.Winner.Value = ""
if #workspace.Ingame:GetChildren() == 0 then
s.Value = "No one has won!"
end
else
s.Value = "No one has won!"
end
if s.Value == vals.Winner.Value.. " has won!" then
for _, conf in workspace.ConfettiGiver:GetChildren() do
conf.Enabled = true
task.delay(10,function()
conf.Enabled = false
end)
end
end
if vals.Winner.Value =="" then
Sound1:Stop()
end
task.wait(3)
local ingame = workspace.Ingame:GetChildren()
for i = 1, #ingame do
local player = Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(ingame[i])
pcall(player.LoadCharacter, player)
end
workspace[curmap]:Destroy()
end
Well I can’t spot anything obviously wrong. Try using the debugger. Put some breakpoints on relevant lines of code by clicking in the gutter to make red circles appear (right click to delete them):
Then run your game and it should pause on every line of code with a breakpoint. You can then use the debugger controls to step through your code one statement at a time:
You can also enable the Watch window to inspect variables during execution:
That way you can see if your script follows the expected control flow and/or if the variables have the expected values. It might take a while but this is a sure fire way to narrow down the issue.
I dont understand why it doesnt work!
