for the instance of this: local x = script.Parent.X.Value if x < 24 then b.velocity = b.velocity + Vector3.new(2,0,0) repeat wait() until x > 25 or x == 25 x is a constantly changing value, however the script only uses the first value that x was and does not update that value. How can I get it to constantly check the value of x?

local x = script.Parent.X.Value repeat x=x+1 b.velocity = b.velocity + Vector3.new(2,0,0) until x>=25 The if statement is pointless and you're never changing x

X is the X position of a moving brick outside the script. The whole purpose is to move the brick to "variable" distance away and stop it once it reaches that distance.

Well, the .Changed event dosen't really work for the part's Position property, so the only way I can think of doing this is the cheap way: never ending loop. while wait() do if scirpt.Parent.X<25 then script.Parent.Velocity=script.Parent.Velocity+Vector3.new(2,0,0) end end And I'm assuming the part you want affected is the parent of the script.
