Why Won't This Toggle?

I don't know why this won't toggle, I've been stumped for a few hours now trying to fix it.

Code:

HackName["SpeedHack"] = CreateClientConVar("HackName_SpeedHack", 0, true, false)

TS = GetConVar("host_timescale")
CH = GetConVar("sv_cheats")

local function speedon()
CH:SetValue(1.0)
TS:SetValue(5.0)
end
function speedoff()
TS:SetValue(1.0)
end

if HackName["SpeedHack"] == 0 then 
	speedoff() 
else 
	speedon()
end

I honestly have no idea why this won't work properly. I can get it to work by doing:

Code:

CH = GetConVar("sv_cheats")
TS = GetConVar("host_timescale")

function speedon()
CH:SetValue(1)
TS:SetValue(5)
end
function speedoff()
TS:SetValue(1)
end

concommand.Add("+HackName_SpeedHack", speedon)
concommand.Add("-HackName_SpeedHack", speedoff)

But doing it this way causes quite a bit of hassle whilst trying to implement it into a menu. Any help at all would be appreciated.

of course if you put it in global space it will only run once.
run your if statement in a hook (or in a timer, but it's a bad idea.)

Tried and failed.

Code:

CH = ("sv_cheats")
FB = ("mat_fullbright")

HackName["FullBright"] = CreateClientConVar("HackName_FullBright", 0, true, false)

function brighton()
	CH:SetValue(1)
	FB:SetValue(1)
end
function brightoff()
	FB:SetValue(0)
	CH:SetValue(0)
end

local function CheckFullBright()
	if HackName["FullBright"] == 0 then
		brightoff()
	else
		brighton()
        end
end
hook.Add( "Think", "FullBrightCheck", CheckFullBright )

Yes I know this is a fullbright thingy and not a speedhack thingy but they use the same principle, the point is it doesnt work.

1. You would need a module that can force cvars (cvar3 is one)
2. If statements need an end
3. GetConVar("sv_cheats"):SetValue( numberhere ) to force cvars using cvar3

1. I already have/use the cvar 3 module.
2. The if statement did have an end I just forgot to put that in my [CODE].
3. I already am doing that, just in a more organised way.

also use GetConVarNumber("HackName_FullBright") or HackName["FullBright"]:GetInt()

Thanks. Got everything working now.

Code:

CH = ("sv_cheats")
FB = ("mat_fullbright")

HackName["FullBright"] = CreateClientConVar("HackName_FullBright", 0, true, false)

function brighton()
	CH:SetValue(1)
	FB:SetValue(1)
end
function brightoff()
	FB:SetValue(0)
	CH:SetValue(0)
end

local function CheckFullBright()
	if HackName["FullBright"]:GetInt == 0 then
		brightoff()
	else
		brighton()
        end
end
hook.Add( "Think", "FullBrightCheck", CheckFullBright )

GetInt is a function, that code you posted won't work since you don't call it
