I want to duplicate these currency’s but still want the script to work. I tried putting the script inside of the object and using
script.Parent
But I couldn’t do that because I need to access a value inside the player which I only know how to do in a local script.
Here is the code I am using inside a local script inside starter player scripts:
local plr = script.Parent.Parent
local tix = game:GetService("Workspace"):WaitForChild("Tix")
local value = game.Players.LocalPlayer.PlayerScripts.Money
local gui = game.Players.LocalPlayer.PlayerGui["Money GUI"].Frame.Number
local money = plr.PlayerScripts.Money
value.Changed:Connect(function(newValue)
gui.Text = tostring(newValue)
end)
tix.ProximityPrompt.Triggered:Connect(function(plr)
money.Value = money.Value + 1
tix.Transparency = 1
tix.CanCollide = false
tix.Decal.Transparency = 1
tix.ProximityPrompt.Enabled = false
game.ReplicatedStorage.Money:Play()
end)
local robux = game:GetService("Workspace"):WaitForChild("Robux")
robux.ProximityPrompt.Triggered:Connect(function(plr)
money.Value = money.Value + 5
robux.Transparency = 1
robux.CanCollide = false
robux.Decal.Transparency = 1
robux.ProximityPrompt.Enabled = false
game.ReplicatedStorage.Money:Play()
end)
If i understood you right… Your code should work if you do this:
Paste this script into your ServerScriptService
local ReplicatedStorage = game:GetService("ReplicatedStorage")
local Players = game:GetService("Players")
local updateCurrencyEvent = Instance.new("RemoteEvent")
updateCurrencyEvent.Name = "UpdateCurrency"
updateCurrencyEvent.Parent = ReplicatedStorage
-- or just make this event in ReplicatedStorage by yourself
local function onCurrencyCollected(player, amount)
local money = player.leaderstats:FindFirstChild("Money")
if money then
money.Value = money.Value + amount
updateCurrencyEvent:FireClient(player, money.Value)
end
end
local tixFolder = game.Workspace.tixFolder -- Put all your tix models in this folder
for _, tix in pairs(tixFolder:GetChildren()) do
tix.ProximityPrompt.Triggered:Connect(function(player)
onCurrencyCollected(player, 1)
tix.Transparency = 1
tix.CanCollide = false
tix.Decal.Transparency = 1
tix.ProximityPrompt.Enabled = false
ReplicatedStorage.Money:Play()
end)
end
-- If you have any other currency then do the same
Also put this local script in StarterPlayerScript
local ReplicatedStorage = game:GetService("ReplicatedStorage")
local Players = game:GetService("Players")
local player = Players.LocalPlayer
local gui = player.PlayerGui["Money GUI"].Frame.Number
local updateCurrencyEvent = ReplicatedStorage.UpdateCurrency
updateCurrencyEvent.OnClientEvent:Connect(function(newValue)
gui.Text = tostring(newValue)
end)
Explanation:
Server Script: handles the currency collection and updates the player’s currency value. It also fires a RemoteEvent to update the GUI on the client side. Oh and it’s makes it so every model in your folder listens for the prox event. Less lags and better flexibility. But i recommend you watching some videos about this topic
Local Script: listens for the RemoteEvent and updates the GUI with the new currency value. Change gui name if i misspelled it. I don’t know if any bug can appear, but it shouldn’t. And I don’t recommend using you :WaitForChild if you don’t know how to use it. I didn’t change your code, only fixed
Oh my bad, i forgot to paste () after GetChildren so we didn’t call a function. If any other error occurs then it’s my blindless but they should be easy to fix. Reply me if need
Ah yes one more very strange error, I just tested it and found out that playerscripts under my player is completely gone. It’s just not there, I don’t know how or why. Was this intended?
I tested it again and it is there, maybe I am blind, but it says in the output that it isn’t a member of my player? Oh, sorry the reason it wasn’t there was because I was viewing from the server, but the error still occurs.
Can you explain if money value is? Like send me some screenshots of where’s your stuff so i can understand. Error occurs because i don’t really understand where’s money is. And yeah, unlike the Backpack and PlayerGui containers, the PlayerScripts container is not accessible to the server. Server Script objects will not run when parented to PlayerScripts.
Ok, look. If you want for money to be a thing, you have to create a leaderstats. There’s a quick code for you how you can do this. Create a new script in ServerScriptService and put this code in it:
-- Script inside ServerScriptService
game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(player)
-- Create leaderstats folder
local leaderstats = Instance.new("Folder")
leaderstats.Name = "leaderstats"
leaderstats.Parent = player
-- Create Money value
local money = Instance.new("IntValue")
money.Name = "Money"
money.Value = 0 -- Starting amount of money
money.Parent = leaderstats
end)
I have also changed the main code so you can see how it works. What you should know: Use only leaderstats name for this folder so roblox will automatically initialize it. You can check how it works by pressing the f5 button (or just test play your game)
Okay thanks, I thought it wasn’t necessary but thanks. However, there is still an error saying that playerscripts is not a valid member of my player on the server script.
