Why is this not working? Relatively simple -- no errors?

local AudioTime = game.Workspace.Sound.FranticPhoneCall.TimePosition

wait(23)

if AudioTime == 0 then

Subtitles.Visible = true

end

if AudioTime == 3 then

Subtitles.Text = "I DON'T KNOW -- SOMEWHERE AROUND THE WALKER RIVER RESERVATION --"

end```

(For some reason the variable for the subtitles did not paste – that is not the issue.)

#3

are you sure that audiotime is incrementing?

#4

Where would I check to see if it is/is not?

#5

first off im going to go on a limb and guess that audiotime is a sound, and doesnt look like youve played it Which therefore increases the timeposition,

#6

TimePosition is number of double data type. This condition will never work since the time position will never be totally equal to 3. You should always use conditions lower than (<) or greater than (>).

#7

Yeah, sorry for not being clearer – AudioTime is a sound. It is being played in another script – and I am trying to have the position of the time monitored here, so that I can time my subtitles to the second.

#8

Maybe trying playing the sound from the script your making the subtitles in

#9

I would suggest making another variable which will be something like SubtitlePhase and make a condition.

if AudioTime >= 3 and SubtitlePhase < 1 then
    SubtitlePhase = 1
    Subtitles.Text = "I DON'T KNOW -- SOMEWHERE AROUND THE WALKER RIVER RESERVATION --"
end

I’ll give this a shot and get back to you. Thank you.

#11

It’s breaking because you’re waiting past the ‘AudioTime’ of 3.

Do something along the lines of this:

local AudioTime = game.Workspace.Sound.FranticPhoneCall.TimePosition

for i = 1, 24, 1 do
	if i == 1 then
		Subtitles.Visible = true
	elseif i == 4 then
		Subtitles.Text = "I DON'T KNOW -- SOMEWHERE AROUND THE WALKER RIVER RESERVATION --"
	end

	task.wait(1)
end
#12

Try using WaitForChild() on AudioTime instead of the 23 second wait (or on top of it whatever you want).
