This is still relevant please help

#3

so the current problem is the leaderboard shows values such as 10B or smth?

#4

You could probably convert your number to a string, like 10B → “10,000,000,000.0” or “10,000,000,000” or “10000000000”, store it in your database, and when you retrieve the string, convert it back to a number.

#5

It doesn’t show up at all in the leaderboard for me, like look, I understand that I have a limit of up to 1 million, I want to remove this limit.

#6

Can you elaborate on this?I just didn’t understand

#7

can u show a screenshot of the leaderboard with a player on it

#8

It only shows my name and statistics 200k and I already have 20sp

#9

he means just make a new stringvalue and its value is the strength number

#10

I understood that I should do it this way?

Local Strength= instance.new("StringValue"player)
#11

like basically

local strength = Instance.new("StringValue")
strength.Parent = player
strength.Value = player:FindFirstChild("Strength").Value

actually idk if this works just try im not experienced with limits…

#12

I’ll send you the error that the leaderboard gives right now

#13

#16

Use tonumber(string) to convert the string to number for you to change / save the number.

#17

#18

It didn’t help me either, it also gives an error

#19

But in any case, I’ll check now
