Clocktime script is not working

[queen nimbus]

so im a very beginner in scripting. my problem is nothing literally changes when i click the imagebutton. the clocktime is set to 12. and i dont even know if this will affect the server or client. if it does affect the server how do i change it to client?

Nothing appears at all?

There's 1 issue I can already see

Haven't worked with lighting but saat is set to clocktime on when game loads the script, and changing it (saat=6.5) won't make it change the lighting property

Cuz it's just set to a number

Yeah you need Lighting:SetMinutesAfterMidnight() or whatever its called

Hey. When you do saat = game.Lighting.ClockTime
what it does is first see what number game.Lighting.ClockTime is, then it sets saat to that number

so when you change saat later, you're just changing the saat number. To actually make a change on the game, you need to do
game.Lighting.ClockTime = saat
after the if/else stuff you made

Try that, and let me know if it doesnt work still

🤦‍♂️

instead of using 'saat'

just use game.Lighting.ClockTime

this worked. thanks
but im still curious about why did i have to add game.Lighting.ClockTime = saat when the game.Lighting.ClockTime was already defined as saat

[quartz current]

The game.Lighting.ClockTime was not defined as saat
instead you checked game.Lighting.ClockTime and found that it was e.g. 6
then you put that 6 into saat

the left sides are the ones being "defined"
e.g.
saat = game.Lighting.ClockTime
saat is defined as the clocktime, which is a number

game.Lighting.ClockTime = saat
game.Lighting.ClockTime is defined as saat which is a number

remember to tag this post as solved!
