This is not enough information, add some print statements and show the whole function, also tell me if there’s any errors your getting

As @JAcoboiskaka1121 said, can you please provide the full script?

Try adding the Player Added function

game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(plr)
	local timequest=Instance.new("IntValue")
	local quest=Instance.new("Folder")
	quest.Name="Quest"
	quest.Parent=plr
	timequest.Name="TimeQuest"
	timequest.Parent=quest
	while wait(1) do
		plr:WaitForChild("Quest"):WaitForChild("TimeQuest").Value=plr:WaitForChild("Quest"):WaitForChild("TimeQuest").Value+1
	end
end)

important, you must use a server script, this will not work in a local script

[TafareWoomy (picklepicolo)]

sorry for the late response, this is the whole local script

local exquest = game.ReplicatedStorage.Remotes.ExQuest
local qstart = script.Parent.QStart
local close = script.Parent.Parent.Quests.Close
local quests = script.Parent.Parent.Quests.Questes
local player = game.Players.LocalPlayer

qstart.MouseButton1Click:Connect(function(player)
	script.Parent.Parent.Quests.Visible = true
end)

close.MouseButton1Click:Connect(function()
	script.Parent.Parent.Quests.Visible = false
end)

quests:FindFirstChild("Quest1").Progress.Text = player.Quests.StudQuest.Value.."/".."50000"
quests:FindFirstChild("Quest2").Progress.Text = player.Quests.WinQuest.Value.."/".."2"
quests:FindFirstChild("Quest3").Progress.Text = player.Quests.TimeQuest.Value.."/".."15"

while wait(1) do
	player:WaitForChild("Quests"):WaitForChild("TimeQuest").Value = player:WaitForChild("Quests"):WaitForChild("TimeQuest").Value + 1
end

Your problem is that you are trying to add to the value of 1 in a local script, try to create a server script and add to the value of +1 through it

this worked for me after using the server script, thanks for the advice
