The code above will only run once and never again. If you want it to keep checking if the player has enough orbs, you’ll need to connect it to either a loop or an event. Since you’re working with values, .Changed should do the trick.

local player = game.Players.LocalPlayer

player.leaderstats.Orbs.Changed:Connect(function()
    if player.leaderstats.Orbs.Value >= 1200 then
        script.Parent.Text = “TEST”
        script.Parent.TextColor3 = Color3.new(0, 0.666667, 0)
    end
end)

Welcome to the world of scripting my good friend! :slightly_smiling_face:

It seems like your issue is something simple, sometimes the leaderstats Instance may not entirely load in time in relation with the LocalScript, which is why we use a nifty function called WaitForChild() :wink: (This is to make sure that there truly is an Object that’s named leaderstats and Orbs)

You can also detect whenever your Orbs Value gets changed via using a Changed event, this is handy especially for checking new values that get updated! (Already been noted)

local player = game.Players.LocalPlayer
local leaderstats = player:WaitForChild("leaderstats")
local Orbs = leaderstats:WaitForChild("Orbs")

local function CheckNewValue(NewValue) --This is actually the new value that's called a parameter!
    if NewValue >= 1200 then
        script.Parent.Text = "TEST"
        script.Parent.TextColor3 = Color3.new(0, 0.666667, 0)
    end
end

Orbs.Changed:Connect(CheckNewValue)

(I am aware that this has been fixed, but this script is to prepare for any unusual occurrences happening)
