My RemoteEvent doesn't want to check if my coins.Value is equal to or above 50

Help and Feedback Scripting Support
#1

Hey, I’m trying to make a shop system which for some reason just thinks I’m poor, and honestly It’d be easier to explain if I just show the script:

local RS = game:GetService("ReplicatedStorage")

local stop = RS["stop sign"]

RS.Remotes.RemoteEvent.OnServerEvent:connect(function(player)
	print("yes")
	local coins = player:WaitForChild("leaderstats").Coins
	if coins.Value >= 50 then
		print("rich men")
		stop:Clone().Parent = player:WaitForChild("Backpack")
	else
		print("poor men")
	end
end)

It keeps printing ‘poor men’ even though my coin value is 50. Everything is spelt correctly, I think. Any support would be appreciated.

try

local RS = game:GetService("ReplicatedStorage")

local stop = RS["stop sign"]

RS.Remotes.RemoteEvent.OnServerEvent:connect(function(player)
	print("yes")
	local coins = player.leaderstats.Coins
	if coins.Value >= 50 then
		print("rich men")
		stop:Clone().Parent = player:WaitForChild("Backpack")
	else
		print("poor men")
	end
end)

It still thinks I’m a poor men ):

show explorer for leaderstats and coins

#5

Can you show the local script?

#6

leaderstat

#7

It prints fired like I want it to:

local RS = game:GetService("ReplicatedStorage")

local player = game.Players.LocalPlayer

script.Parent.MouseButton1Click:Connect(function()
	RS.Remotes.RemoteEvent:FireServer()
	print("Fired")
end)```
#8

are you sure that coin instance is an intvalue?

#9

Yeah I’m sure it is an IntValue

#10

Make sure to change leaderstats coins value on the server using a remote event or else the server see that the value is unchanged.

What is:

stop:Clone().Parent = player:WaitForChild("Backpack")

supposed to do?

#12

But I changed the value on the server anyway, so why would I need a remote event?

#13

It clones the stopsign into the backpack

#14

Why would you need to do that?

#15

When someone buys an item from the shop, it would clone the item into their backpack

#16

how are you setting the Coins Value?

#17

Every minute you get 5 coins, I do it in the server.

#18

manually set the Coins Value in the explorer then try buy it

#19

Ohh thats what you meant. I do that anyway, it doesn’t work.

local RS = game:GetService("ReplicatedStorage")

local stop = RS["stop sign"]

RS.Remotes.RemoteEvent.OnServerEvent:connect(function(player)
	print("Fired")
	local coins = player.leaderstats.Coins
    print("Coins =", coins.Value)
	if coins.Value >= 50 then
		print("yep,")
		stop:Clone().Parent = player:WaitForChild("Backpack")
	else
		print("nope")
	end
end)

try this and show output wait one second there try that
