Greetings. I have been trying to create a script so everytime that somebody uses a tool gets a specific amount of points on leaderstats. However, I have messed up. If I could have any feedback it would be really appreciated.

Can you post some code where you think the mess up happens? We can’t help you because we have no context at all.

I firstly tried to do it when 180 seconds pass.
PointsService = game:GetService("PointsService")--declare service
game.Players.PlayerAdded:connect(function(p)--Player function
while true do --this means wait a while, set true, then do.
wait(180)--wait time till getting 1 Player Point
game:GetService("PointsService"):AwardPoints(p.userId,1)--Player Points awarding 1
print("1 point awarded, well done!!")--Print
end
end)

Why define it again?
Also, you used AwardPoint, as shown in the error, but in the script it says you used AwardPoints

Try this API reference, but by the looks of things, you’re doing it right.

Well, maybe then should I use:
game:GetService("PointsService"):AwardPoints (1, 1)
while true do --this means wait a while, set true, then do.
wait(180)--wait time till getting 1 Player Point
game:GetService("PointsService"):AwardPoints(p.userId,1)--Player Points awarding 1
print("1 point awarded, well done!!")--Print
end
end)

Are you using a DataStore? That might be the issue.

I don’t think PointService is in function at all, it was used back in the day as a progress or award system but not really anymore.
