Hey, I have a problem with my local script for an ability upgrade, i need help asap bc my game is launching in less then 7 hours, please help, i keep getting this error:

Players.yololol2006.PlayerGui.Ability.Ability_Shop.Ability.DoubleCoins.Inner.Upgrade!.LocalScript:17: attempt to compare nil <= number

this is my code:

local upgradePrices = {100,250,600,1000,2500,4500,7500}
local cooldownTimes = {20,15,13,10,7,5,3}

local function get()
    script.Parent.Upgrds.OnClientEvent:Connect(function(upgrds)
        script.Parent.Parent["AFK VLOGS"].Text = string.format("AFK VLOGS (%u VLOGS)",upgradePrices[upgrds])
        print(upgrds)
        return upgrds
    end)
end

script.Parent.MouseButton1Click:Connect(function()
    local upgrds = get()
    local plr = game.Players.LocalPlayer
    
    print(upgrds)
	    if plr.leaderstats.Vlogs.Value >= upgradePrices[upgrds] then
        if  plr.PlayerGui.Clicker:WaitForChild("AFrontShadeFree") then
            
            plr.PlayerGui.Clicker:WaitForChild("AFrontShadeFree"):Destroy()
            
            plr.leaderstats.Vlogs.Value = plr.leaderstats.Vlogs.Value - upgradePrices[upgrds]
            plr.PlayerGui.Clicker.CoolDown.Value = cooldownTimes[upgrds + 1]
            
            script.Parent.Upgrds:FireServer(upgrds + 1)
        else
            plr.leaderstats.Vlogs.Value = plr.leaderstats.Vlogs.Value - upgradePrices[upgrds]
            plr.PlayerGui.Clicker.CoolDown.Value = cooldownTimes[upgrds + 1]
            script.Parent.Upgrds:FireServer(upgrds + 1)
        end
        
    elseif upgrds >= 4 then
        script.Parent.Text = "Max upgrade!"
    end
    
end)

???

upgradePrices[upgrds]

This function is problematic:

local function get()
    script.Parent.Upgrds.OnClientEvent:Connect(function(upgrds)
        script.Parent.Parent["AFK VLOGS"].Text = string.format("AFK VLOGS (%u VLOGS)",upgradePrices[upgrds])
        print(upgrds)
        return upgrds
    end)
end

It does not return any value at all. It just connections functions, which I would almost never recommend.

oh ok, and how do i fix sorry for asking

#4

Problem is that upgrds variable inside function that is connected to MouseButton1Click is nil because get function actually doesn’t return anything and only creates a new RBXScriptConnection every time button is clicked. You should yield the code until OnClientEvent fires by using script.Parent.Upgrds.OnClientEvent:Wait() instead:

local function get()
    local upgrds = script.Parent.Upgrds.OnClientEvent:Wait()
    script.Parent.Parent["AFK VLOGS"].Text = string.format("AFK VLOGS (%u VLOGS)",upgradePrices[upgrds])
    print(upgrds)
    return upgrds
end
