How do I add a money giver code to my script?

Help and Feedback Scripting Support
#1

I need a money give code between the “-- log (money) give code” and “–”

(this code is from a tree that when your axe hits it, it gives you logs)

the script:

local Log = script.Parent
local hits = 5
local totalhits = 0
local SpareTree = game.ReplicatedStorage.Tree

local text = script.Parent.BillboardGui.TextLabel

local debounce = false

local maxnum = 5

Log.Touched:Connect(function(hit)
	if debounce == false then
		debounce = true
		if hit.Parent.Name == "Axe" then
			hits = hits + -1
			
			text.Text = "Health: "..hits.."/"..maxnum
			
			-- log (money) give code
			
			
			
			--
			
			
			if hits == totalhits then
				if hits == totalhits then
					text.Text = "Dead"
					hits = 0 
					Log.Anchored = false
					wait()
					Log.Rotation = Vector3.new(45,0,0)
					wait(3)
					Log:Destroy()
					local NewTree = SpareTree:Clone()
					NewTree.Parent = workspace
					text.Text = "Health: 5/5"
				end
			end
		end
		wait(1)
		debounce = false
	end
end)

my leaderboard (to help you help me)

game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(plr)
	local leaderstats = Instance.new("Folder")
	leaderstats.Parent = plr
	leaderstats.Name = "leaderstats"
	
	local logs = Instance.new("IntValue")
	logs.Value = 0
	logs.Parent = leaderstats
	logs.Name = "logs"
	
	local planks = Instance.new("IntValue")
	planks.Value = 0
	planks.Parent = leaderstats
	planks.Name = "planks"
	
end)

here is a video if it helps any.

(this is what it looks like kinda, except it gives you logs)

Do you have any type of money system?

#3

Have a look at this, In-Experience Leaderboards | Roblox Creator Documentation. Do you already have a leaderstats system up?

#5

Wdym ‘logs’ and ‘leaderstats’, like do you mean you have a log leaderstat?

#6 
local Log = script.Parent
local hits = 5
local totalhits = 0
local SpareTree = game.ReplicatedStorage.Tree

local text = script.Parent.BillboardGui.TextLabel

local debounce = false

local maxnum = 5

Log.Touched:Connect(function(hit)
	if debounce == false then
		debounce = true
		if hit.Parent.Name == "Axe" then
			hits = hits + -1
			
			text.Text = "Health: "..hits.."/"..maxnum
			
			-- log (money) give code
			
			
			
			--
			
			
			if hits == totalhits then
				if hits == totalhits then
					text.Text = "Dead"
					hits = 0 
					Log.Anchored = false
					wait()
					Log.Rotation = Vector3.new(45,0,0)
					wait(3)
					Log:Destroy()
					local NewTree = SpareTree:Clone()
					NewTree.Parent = workspace
					text.Text = "Health: 5/5"
				end
			end

		wait(1)
		debounce = false
	end
end)

Is this script is on the server?

#7

it is in workspace yes, that script is in the tree

#8

Ok, I assume that you have some sort of ownership value of the axe. If so you can locate the the player’s leaderstats folder and change their log(money) value.

#9

but that’s what im struggling with is how do I locate where the leaderstats is if the axe hits the part?

#10

Do you have any sort of object/value that stores the owner of the axe?

#11

the axe is a tool that the player uses to chop the tree. But I don’t know really what else to say about the “object/value that stores the owner of the axe”.
(not trying to be rude or anything)

#12

When the tree dies, simply add a line of code like this:

game.Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter[hit.Parent.Parent].leaderstats.logs.Value += 1
#13

Ok I see. Where is the axe(tool) stored. Where is it?

#14

in the backpack of the player.

#15

You could get the Player instance from the parent of tool the as @Kaid3n22 said.

So the script should be something like this:

local Log = script.Parent
local hits = 5
local totalhits = 0
local SpareTree = game.ReplicatedStorage.Tree

local text = script.Parent.BillboardGui.TextLabel

local debounce = false

local maxnum = 5

Log.Touched:Connect(function(hit)
	if debounce == false then
		debounce = true
		if hit.Parent.Name == "Axe" then
			hits = hits + -1

			text.Text = "Health: "..hits.."/"..maxnum
			
			--// Money give.
			local Player = game.Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(hit.Parent.Parent) --// Grabs the player instanace from the character
			local Leaderstats = Player:FindFirstChild("leaderstats") --// Finds the leaderstat folder in the player instance
			
			Leaderstats.logs.Value += 1 --// Change the (1) to the amount you want to add to their logs(money)
			--// Money give.


			if hits == totalhits then
				if hits == totalhits then
					text.Text = "Dead"
					hits = 0 
					Log.Anchored = false
					wait()
					Log.Rotation = Vector3.new(45,0,0)
					wait(3)
					Log:Destroy()
					local NewTree = SpareTree:Clone()
					NewTree.Parent = workspace
					text.Text = "Health: 5/5"
				end
			end
		end
		wait(1)
		debounce = false
	end
end)

Please mark this as solution if this helps with your problem :smiley: ! If it doesn’t please inform me if you receive any errors! :slightly_smiling_face:

im a DumbA$%… i forgot to duplicate and put a copy of the model into ReplicatedStorage.
because of this code:

local SpareTree = game.ReplicatedStorage.Tree

so the code i originally made before making this post would’ve worked if I paid more attention to that mistake :man_facepalming:
