NumberValue problem

If you want it unique to the player, you should add the value in the Backpack instead of StarterGear like @PANDASonNOOB said. Otherwise this value could change for everybody and not just individually for the player.

local UIS = game:GetService(“UserInputService”)
ValueCounter = 0
char = script.Parent.Character
UIS.InputBegan:Connect(function(input)
  if input.UserInputType == Enum.UserInputType.MouseButton1 then
    ClickCounter = ClickCounter + 1
    ValueCounter = ValueCounter + 0.01
    print(ClickCounter)
    game.Players.LocalPlayer.PlayerGui.Clicks.Number.Text = ClickCounter
    char:FindFirstChild("Ball").Value = ValueCounter
  end
end)

Although why dont u just instead use an IntValue and put it in the player?

Players.ItzVasiPlayerScripts.LocalScript:11: attempt to index nil with ‘FindFirstChild’

use a print statement and do “Print(char)”, I think it might be because the player character isn’t loaded yet making char nil or something

#29

yea it says nil when printed so that might the problem

#30

#31
