Attempt to index nil with 'leaderstats'

[InvalidRaycast (Ray)]

I want to make a obby game but when it finished the round it will give an points to the player’s team. But the problem is, it keeps saying attempt to index nil with 'leaderstats'

I’ve tried:

Workspace.Money.Script:4: attempt to index nil with 'leaderstats'

So basically, I have been trying to make a block that gives you cash when you step on it, but it would print "Workspace.Money.Script:4: attempt to index nil with ‘leaderstats’ " Anyone know how to fix this? Script: local MoneyPart = game.Workspace.Money MoneyPart.Touched:Connect(function(hit) if hit.Parent:FindFirstChild("Humanoid") then player.leaderstats.Cash.Value = player.leaderstats.Cash.Value + 10 end end)

attempt to index nil with 'leaderstats' in roblox studio

script:

function Player__Escaped(hit)
local player = game.Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(hit.Parent)
-- And few more script

if player.leaderstats.Player_Team.Value == 1 then
			game.Workspace.GameValueDetails.Team1Name.Score.Value = game.Workspace.GameValueDetails.Team1Name.Score.Value + AddToTeam
	end
-- few more script
end
script.Parent.EscapePath.Touched:Connect(Player__Escaped)

Error is in

if player.leaderstats.Player_Team.Value == 1 then

Other explanation that may be similar to answers:
No, I don’t wan’t to use Teams. I want to use value’s instead

Thank you so much for the help, I appreciate it!

Try this, I’ve added “WaitForChild()” commands to allow for the referenced instances to load before attempting to use them in the script, if you get an “infinite yield warning” in console from this then that means that “leaderstats” is not a valid child of the “Player” instance.

I’ve also forced a return statement if “player” is nil after an attempt has been made to assign to it a “Player” object.

works at first but it doesn’t work in a second try, its supposed to give the team points and teleport player to lobby. but nothing happens.

If it works the first time but not on subsequent retries then there must be some other issue. Could you provide the full script?

Oh, I see your issue.

player:WaitForChild("leaderstats"):WaitForChild("Player_Team").Value == 1
Before you were only checking if that stat was 1 before increasing it.
I’ve changed this line of code to:
player:WaitForChild("leaderstats"):WaitForChild("Player_Team").Value >= 1
So now it’ll check if the value of the stat is equal to or greater than 1 and then change the stat.

[InvalidRaycast (Ray)]

no at first the stat was 0, but i change it by using Current: Server Button and make it 1 then go back to client. it started not working.
also i only put == not > because 1 and 2 will have difference on score. so if i put > then the team 2 wont have any score, it will placed on team. But i could try it again cause i might have a typo in the stats

[Limited_Unique]

Yeah, there’s likely some other issue with the script considering it works the first time but not for subsequent retries, do you get any errors in console when testing?

[InvalidRaycast (Ray)]

no, but i think i found the error, cause i have a hat accessory and when i jump it will touch the button which will teleport, and that maybe why the script may not work because of the hat. I’ll try it again without the hat touching it

[InvalidRaycast (Ray)]

Yep! it was an hat, thank you so much for the help, i will solution you as soon as possible, Thank you!

You were referencing “db” in the script without declaring it. I’ve also fixed up some of the conditional chains you had from “else if” to just “elseif”.

alright thanks! for the help. i appreciate it!
