Variable doesn't seem to change in a loop

Thanks for the response, I can say that I tried it and it still didn’t want to change the variable, I’ll try to be more in depth this time, it’s not the best code but I tried:

StartGame is called here in the class countdown_timer:

using { /UnrealEngine.com/Temporary/Diagnostics }
using { /UnrealEngine.com/Temporary/UI }
using { /UnrealEngine.com/Temporary/SpatialMath }
using { /Verse.org/Simulation }
using { /Fortnite.com/Devices }
using { /Fortnite.com/UI }
using { /Verse.org/Colors }

MakeCountdownTimer<constructor><public>(MaxTime : float, InPlayer : agent) := countdown_timer:
    RemainingTime := MaxTime
    MaybePlayerUI := option{GetPlayerUI[player[InPlayer]]}

countdown_timer := class(creative_device):
    @editable
    GameInfo : game_info = game_info{}

    RunCountdown<private>()<suspends> : void =
        loop:
            Sleep(TimerTickPeriod)
            set RemainingTime -= TimerTickPeriod
            UpdateUI()

            var PlayerCount : int = 0
            for (PlayerNumber : GetPlayspace().GetPlayers()):
                set PlayerCount += 1
            var Waiting : countdown_timer_global = countdown_timer_global{}
            if (PlayerCount < 1):
                set RemainingTime = 0.0

            if (RemainingTime <= 0.0):
                if (PlayerCount >= 1):
                    GameInfo.StartGame() #HERE

                    RemainingTimeTextBlock.SetText(GameStartedText())
                    Sleep(2.0)
                
                Canvas.RemoveWidget(RemainingTimeTextBlock)

                if (UI := MaybePlayerUI?):
                    UI.RemoveWidget(Canvas)
                
                if (PlayerCount < 1):
                    Waiting.WaitingForPlayers()
                    Print("There are {PlayerCount} players, not enough to start the game.")

                break
    
    UpdateUI<private>() : void =
        if (IntTime := Int[RemainingTime]):
            RemainingTimeTextBlock.SetText(RemainingTimeText(IntTime))

The StartGame function now looks something like this: (it’s in the game_info class)

using { /Fortnite.com/Devices }
using { /Fortnite.com/Playspaces }
using { /Verse.org/Native }
using { /Verse.org/Random }
using { /Verse.org/Simulation }
using { /Fortnite.com/Game }
using { /Fortnite.com/Characters }
using { /UnrealEngine.com/Temporary/Diagnostics }

game_info := class<concrete>(creative_device):
    @editable
    SpawnInfo : spawn_info = spawn_info{}

    StartGame<public>() : void =
        Print("Selecting Roles")
        SelectRoles()

        Print("Selecting Map")
        Selection := GetRandomInt(0, 0)

        Print("Teleporting the players to the Map")
        SpawnInfo.TeleportToMap(Selection)

The TeleportToMap function is another class callled spawn_info and I already sent it but I’ll send it again:

using { /Fortnite.com/Devices }
using { /Verse.org/Simulation }
using { /UnrealEngine.com/Temporary/Diagnostics }

spawn_info := class(creative_device):
    var TeleportNow<public> : logic = false
    var Map : int = 0

    @editable
    Spawns_Farm: []teleporter_device := array{}

    OnBegin<override>()<suspends> : void =
        loop:
            Sleep(1.0)
            if (TeleportNow = true):
                Print("test3")
                for (Index -> Player:GetPlayspace().GetPlayers()):
                    if (Map = 0):
                        if (Players := Player, Farm := Spawns_Farm[Index]):
                            Farm.Teleport(Players)
                set TeleportNow = false

    TeleportToMap<public>(SelectedMap:int) : void =
        set Map = SelectedMap
        set TeleportNow = true
        if (TeleportNow = true):
            Print("true")
        else:
            Print("false")

The code doesn’t get past the “if (TeleportNow = true)” because TeleportNow still remains false even tho TeleportToMap is in the same class, can it be a problem if it’s in on the OnBegin and in a loop? I’ve been trying to fix it for so long that I almost lost any hope :confused:
