This Code uses DataStore 2 and gives gold when a player kills another one. The problem is the stats gold isnt showing up and I am not sure if my code has a bug.

local DataStore2 = require(1936396537)

DataStore2.Combine("MasterKey","Gold")

game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(plr)
	local dataGold = DataStore2("Gold", plr)
	local folder = Instance.new("Folder",plr)
	folder.Name = "leaderstats"
	
	local gold = Instance.new("IntValue", folder)
	gold.Name = "Gold"
	
	local initialGold = 100
	gold.Value = dataGold:Get(initialGold)
	
	gold.Changed:Connect(function()
		dataGold:Set(gold.Value)
		
		player.CharacterAdded:Connect(function(character)
			character:WaitForChild("Humanoid").Died:connect(function()
				
				local tag = character.Humanoid:FindFirstChild("creator")
				
				if tag ~= nil then
					
					if tag.Value ~= nil then
						
						local stats = tag.Value:WaitForChild("leaderstats")
						
						stats["Gold"].Value = stats ["Gold"].Value + 150
						
					end
				end
			end)

Can you show the error output for a bit of a knowledge about what caused the issue? If there’s no errors it has to do with the module you took.

What line is causing the error?

Example:

Line 9: Attempt to find index nil

Oh wait: Nevermind, just saw.

Yeah I am not sure why though but normally if it should work it should show the gold stat on the leaderstats in the game but it doesn’t

You are missing an end) when you wrote the 2nd function. Hopefully this fixes it.

Well, you should put the end) before the last end), the image i sent had a drawing of my word “end)” that is supposed to be there, you could try it.

See now stats shown on there If it was correct it would say Gold

#17

It could be the problem where you used a script that modifies the styles of some core graphical user interface, what script do you think you used to change the styles of the game’s GUIs?

Edit: But once again it wouldn’t be 80% the main issue about that bug that declines the leader statistics.

#18

I do not think so because if I take away the leaderstats for killing script it works

#19

I will show u a pic of what I mean right now

#20

I meant that you might have used some scripts that change the style of the GUIs such as changing the backpack gui, the chat bar, etc.

Edit: Also a side note, i’m not really good at identifying the smallest detail that could’ve caused this problem.
