Hello, I am getting an error on line 52 local Minutes = Players.leaderstats.Minutes, why can I not call the leaderstats and get the minutes? How do I make the variable call it?

Have you tried using WaitForChild?

local Minutes = Player:WaitForChild("leaderstats"):WaitForChild("Minutes")

Also, you were using Players instead of Player.

You never say what the error is.
Also, leaderstats should be under a player, not Players

I replied a bit late, do what @HugeCoolboy2007 suggests.

Remember to use Player instead of Player!
