How to give a player something if they reach a certain amount of kills

You can write your topic however you want, but you need to answer these questions:

  1. What do you want to achieve? Keep it simple and clear!
    I want to make a system where when you get 100 kills, you get a new sword.

  2. What solutions have you tried so far? Did you look for solutions on the Developer Hub?
    Yes, I did. I tried to use"local function SwordGiver(player)if kills == 100 then game.ServerStorage.BlueSword.Parent = player.Backpack "(There’s a leaderboard script on top of that)

I am new to scripting as well as the dev forum so if I did anything wrong, please let me know!

I just need help in checking if the player has the amount of kills required, all in all.

function onHumanoidDied(humanoid, player)
local stats = player:findFirstChild(“leaderstats”)
if stats ~= nil then
local deaths = stats:findFirstChild(“Wipeouts”)
deaths.Value = deaths.Value + 1

	-- do short dance to try and find the killer

	local killer = getKillerOfHumanoidIfStillInGame(humanoid)

	handleKillCount(humanoid, player)
end

end

function onPlayerRespawn(property, player)
– need to connect to new humanoid

if property == "Character" and player.Character ~= nil then
	local humanoid = player.Character.Humanoid
		local p = player
		local h = humanoid
		humanoid.Died:connect(function() onHumanoidDied(h, p) end )
end

end

function getKillerOfHumanoidIfStillInGame(humanoid)
– returns the player object that killed this humanoid
– returns nil if the killer is no longer in the game

-- check for kill tag on humanoid - may be more than one - todo: deal with this
local tag = humanoid:findFirstChild("creator")

-- find player with name on tag
if tag ~= nil then
	
	local killer = tag.Value
	if killer.Parent ~= nil then -- killer still in game
		return killer
	end
end

return nil

end

function handleKillCount(humanoid, player)
local killer = getKillerOfHumanoidIfStillInGame(humanoid)
if killer ~= nil then
local stats = killer:findFirstChild(“leaderstats”)
if stats ~= nil then
local kills = stats:findFirstChild(“KOs”)
if killer ~= player then
kills.Value = kills.Value + 1

		else
			kills.Value = kills.Value - 1
			
		end
	end
end

end

local function SwordGiver(player)
if kills == 100 then
game.ServerStorage.BlueSword.Parent = player.Backpack
end
end

Second edit: I just realized I never called the function

Do you mind properly pasting in your current code so we can help you?
Format

--code

There, I pasted it. I hope you can see it!

Here is something that could work:

local Item = ServerStorage.Item--Item to be copied

kills.Changed:Connect(function()--Detects when kills change,
if kills == 100 then--if the kills are 100
local ClonnedItem = item:Clone()--clone the item
ClonnedItem.Parent = player.Backpack--set the item parent to the backpack
end)

This will not work copy and paste but is this something similar to what your looking for?

ServerScriptService and put it in normal script, u need to make the “kills” variable too do the playeradded event and adjust it to fit
