I dont really know how to reference a player in a bindable event and I need help! Thank you for your time

local repStorage = game:GetService("ReplicatedStorage")
local Banana = game.Workspace.Banana
local bananaPrompt = Banana.BananaPrompt
local bananaPurchased = repStorage.BananaPurchased

bananaPurchased.Event:Connect(function(player)
	local gold = player.leaderstats.Gold
	
	if gold.Value >= 10 then
		gold.Value = gold.Value - 10
		Banana:Clone().Parent = player.Backpack
	end
end)

You can run bananaPurchased:Fire(player).

in any server script, add this:

workspace.Banana.BananaPrompt.Triggered:Connect(player)
game.ReplicatedStorage.BananaPurchased:Fire(player)
end)

I did it and it gave me a orange lines

doesnt work either and i put it in a diffrent script inside the tool

when i made the new script and put it inside the banana → prox prompt → the new script. It shows unkown global player

I have to ask, are you trying to communicate between the Server and the Client, or just internally on the server?

#15

Just reference the player at the beginning of the script

local player = game.Players.LocalPlayer
local repStorage = game:GetService("ReplicatedStorage")
local Banana = game.Workspace.Banana
local bananaPrompt = Banana.BananaPrompt
local bananaPurchased = repStorage.BananaPurchased

bananaPurchased.Event:Connect(function()
	local gold = player.leaderstats.Gold
	
	if gold.Value >= 10 then
		gold.Value = gold.Value - 10
		Banana:Clone().Parent = player.Backpack
	end
end)
#16

both servers i am not using a remote event because I have to use a proximity prompt inside a tool too buy the banana

#17

that script is a shophandler
(30charlimitsss

#18

try:

script.Parent.Triggered:Connect(function(player)
game:GetService("ReplicatedStorage").BananaPurchased:Fire(player)
end)
