I think you have to add the definition of true first like this:

_something = true;

and then you change your code to while {_something} do.

And make chack every x sec.

If you do not the loop then toy can use if - else instead of while

Basically the same, only you need to use a global variable:

hello.sqf

myGlobalVariable = true;

While {myGlobalVariable == true} do {
   hint "test";
   sleep 10;
   hint "hello";
}

else

{
   hint "goodbye";
};

goodbye.sqf

myGlobalVariable = false;

Or something like that.
