"Player is not a valid member of Local Script"

Hello!
I am creating a simulator, Whenever I test out the tool, to actually give you points, it says “Player is not a valid member of Local Script, Workspace.dd_y09.Tool.LocalScript” Is there anyway to fix this?

2

Can you show the script? This error means that you’re trying to do something like

script.Player
3

Here is the local Script: local player = game.Players.LocalPlayer
local cd = false
script.Parent.Activated:Connect(function()
if not cd then
cd = true
game.ReplicatedStorage.Remotes.Add:FireServer(script.player.Ammount.Value)
wait (0.5)
cd = false
end
end)

And here is the main script: game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(player)
local leaderstats = Instance.new(‘Folder’, player)
leaderstats.Name = ‘leaderstats’

local coins = Instance.new('IntValue', leaderstats)
coins.Name = 'Coins'
coins.Value = 0

end)

game.ReplicatedStorage.Remotes.Add.OnServerEvent:Connect(function(player, Ammount)
local currency = ‘Coins’
player.leaderstats[currency].Value = player.leaderstats[currency].Value + Ammount
end)

Is the error coming from this line?

5

Yes, this is where the error is coming from.

6

That means that script.player doesn’t exist. What are you trying to get?

7

I’m trying to get someone to help, with this issue? which no one is doing.?

8

Ok, maybe poor phrasing on my part. What I mean was what is script.player.Ammount.Value supposed to be?

To get a local player, do the following and change all values that are supposed to equal the Local Player to this.

local Player = game.Players.LocalPlayer -- The Local Player itself,
local Character = Player.Character -- The Character of the LocalPlayer.

Edit Note:

If you need to get the player through doing a script.Parent argument, then you’ll have to continue to map it and make sure it’s actually getting the player and not another thing as it’s parent.
