Leaderstat Nametag

Help and Feedback Scripting Support
#1

I’m trying to create a nametag that displays a players stage.
Currently it just shows the stage as 0.

Here is the cloning code:

local nametag = game:GetService("ServerStorage"):WaitForChild("NameTagGui")

game.Players.PlayerAdded:connect(function(plr)
	plr.CharacterAdded:connect(function(char)
		char:WaitForChild("Humanoid").HealthDisplayDistance = 0
		char:WaitForChild("Humanoid").NameDisplayDistance = 0
		
		local cloneTag = nametag:Clone()
		cloneTag.Frame.NameText.Text = plr.Name
		cloneTag.Parent = char.Head
	end)
end)

The cloning code works.

This is a view of the nametag inside explorer.

Code for local script:

while true do
	local CurStage = player.leaderstats.Stage.Value
	wait(0.1)
	script.Parent.Text = CurStage
end

The current code makes it only show local.

Could someone help? Thanks.

There may be some issues with your notes being lines of code and not notes

do this inside of a normal script:

while wait(0.1) do
    local player = game.Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(script.Parent.Parent.Parent) --change to character it is inside
    script.Parent.Text = player.leaderstats.Stage.Value
end

Strange, doesn’t seem to show, the stage shows as 0 (Default text).

I see:

oh alr, I thought that there were less parents needed, so do it like this instead:

local player

repeat
    player = game.Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(script.Parent.Parent.Parent.Parent.Parent.Parent)
until player ~= nil

player.leaderstats.Stage:GetPropertyChangedSignal("Value"):Connect(function(value)
    script.Parent.Text = value
end)

No need to do while wait(0.1) do, IntValues have a Changed event that fires when the value is changed.

yes, and I wasnt thinking about it at that time. I’ll just update the script.
