Well, the issue comes from the fact that the loop will execute if the value is "true", and it'll keep running what's inside until it's over. In this case, you have a for-loop... so that will have to finish before it checks if the value is "true" again. Try something like: for i = 30,0,-1 do if test.Value == true then text.Text = i end wait(1) end end

A while loop only checks if it is still true after the loop is finished. In this case, after the countdown is done. You could do something like this: while test.Value == true do for i = 30,0,-1 do if (test.Value~=true) then break --This will immediately cancel the for loop, then the script will go back to the while loop and end that too. end text.Text = i wait(1) end end
