I put this script into Command

while true do
part.Transparency = 1
wait(5)
game.Workspace.Part.Lock = true
wait(3)
part.Transparency=0
print("I did it!")


end




The script won't work, and I don't know why. I think it may be a problem on line 4.

Any help is appreciated.

game.Workspace.Part.Locked = true

Are you sure your not thinking of anchored?

Is that the entire code?
If so, the variable "part" isn't define.

Also, what are you trying to do to this "part?"

I could see you want it to turn invisible...
wait 5 seconds...
unlock and turn back to visible...
then 3 seconds later, repeating the process...

Actually, no magna, I'm trying to lock it; not anchor it. To prevent from deleting, moving, etc.

@RoAnt

I'm following the instructions from LuaLearners, and it was how they follow:

Your Task:
Make a script that does the following.
1. Make a part invisible
2. Wait five seconds
3. Make the same part Locked
4. Wait three seconds
5. Make the same part visible again
6. Write "I did it!" to the output.
7. Include a comment in your script!
8. And finally, make steps 1-7 run an infinite amount of times.

Then do this

part = Workspace.PARTNAME

while true do
part.Transparency = 1
wait(5)
game.Workspace.Part.Locked = true
wait(3)
part.Transparency=0
print("I did it!")


end

magnalite's script should work because he defined what "part" was.

@magna

the script makes the brick transparent, and prints "I did it" but thats it.

never locks, doesn't become solid again.

You defined the location half way through >.<


part = Workspace.PARTNAME

while true do
part.Transparency = 1
wait(5)
Part.Locked = true
wait(3)
part.Transparency=0
print("I did it!")


end

I'm sorry if you can't see it, but he did change it.
Test his code out using Output.

part.Locked = true -- de-capitalized the p here (didn't notice it the first time)
wait(3)
part.Transparency=0

while true do
part.Transparency = 1
wait(5)
part.Locked = true
wait(3)
part.Transparency = 0
print("I did it!") --might want to add a wait here as it instantly loops to the beginning
