Message on death screen [HELP]

I use this script :


local isPlayerDead = false


Citizen.CreateThread(function()
    while true do
        if IsPlayerDead(PlayerId()) then
            if isPlayerDead == false then 
                isPlayerDead = true
                SendNUIMessage({
					setDisplay = true

	})
            end
        else 
            if isPlayerDead == true then
                isPlayerDead = false
                SendNUIMessage({
					setDisplay = false

	})
            end
        end
        Citizen.Wait(100)
    end
end)

But the problem is that the message is showing even the player is alive. I want it to show just for dead people. What is wrong ?

Hmm you naming seems confusing, thus making it hard to comprehend.
Changed some things around and added some verbose comments to help you understand what might be going on.

local isDeathScreenShowing = false

Citizen.CreateThread(function()
    local player = PlayerPedId()
    while true do

        -- Is the player dead or alive?
        local isPlayerDead = IsPlayerDead(player)

        --If dead, then...
        if isPlayerDead then
            -- And we are not showing the death screen...
            --  Then show the death screen
            if isDeathScreenShowing == false then 
                isDeathScreenShowing = true
                SendNUIMessage({setDisplay = true})
            end
        -- Else if the player is not dead.
        else
            --And we are currently showing the death screen...
            --  Then hide it.
            if isDeathScreenShowing then
                isDeathScreenShowing = false
                SendNUIMessage({setDisplay = false})
            end
        end
        Citizen.Wait(100)
    end
end)
