I'd like to make a script, in which you have armor, an armor object would attach on you, else it would be destroyed or not shown. Aborts infinite loop?

Loops are not meant to check if something has changed, they will keep running and delay all other processes until the system stops it. Loops are for processing multiple pieces of data during one action.

How about you use a timer instead? (if serverside)

Or 'onClientRender' (if clientside)

I have no idea how to make it with set timer. I'd rather do it on serverside, so people could see each other's armor.

Why don't you start with learning how to create an infinity timer?

Just create it for fun and let it say something in the chat!

yes make sure u set it to 50ms so your server gets lagged

 

it would be like 

setTimer(function() do what you wanted to do end, 250, 0)

the 250 is delay, it will check that every 250ms, you probably can make it longer so that's less performance impact, and 0 means that it's infinite.
