I am not sure what to do.

local Checkpoints = script.Parent

for i,v in pairs(Checkpoints:GetChildren())do
	if v:IsA("BasePart")then
		v.Touched:Connect(function(hit)
			if hit.Parent:FindFirstChild("Humanoid")then
				local player = game.Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(hit.Parent)
				if player then
					if player.leaderstats.Checkpoints.Value < tonumber(v.Name)then
						player.leaderstats.Checkpoints.Value = tonumber(v.Name)
					end
				end
			end
		end)
	end
end

Try to use WaitForChild I guess.

You probably ned to wait for it to exist

local Checkpoints = script.Parent

for i,v in pairs(Checkpoints:GetChildren())do
	if v:IsA("BasePart")then
		v.Touched:Connect(function(hit)
			if hit.Parent:FindFirstChild("Humanoid")then
				local player = game.Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(hit.Parent)
				local stats = player:WaitForChild("leaderstats")
				if player then
					if stats.Checkpoints.Value < tonumber(v.Name)then
						stats.Checkpoints.Value = tonumber(v.Name)
					end
				end
			end
		end)
	end
end

now it is in a loop

Are you sure that you have Folder called ‘leaderstats’ inside your Player Instance?

6

And it wont keep the person on that checkpoint.

7

Are you certain you inserted your leaderstats correctly?

8

I do not believe I have done this.

9

Where is your code that inserts the folder?

The script is in here,

11

No no I meant, the code that inserts the leaderstats thing

12

There is no script for leaderstats.

13

Then that’s probably why then, nothing inserts a leaderstats folder into your player instance, you need to do that

Although I presume it was your former script that you had issues with?

14

Honestly I don’t script, it is a tutorial.

15

Then that’s probably why, I recommed learning the basics of scripting before you start any project because you’ll not go anywhere just by tutorials, having a grasp of Luau is essential
