Question About Leaderstats

#1

Hello!

I’m having a issue where it won’t print even though I have what is needed. (Code below). There are no errors, etc. Thanks!

local ds1 = datastore:GetDataStore("CashSaveSystem")
local ds2 = datastore:GetDataStore("CustomersSaveSystem")

game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(player)
	if player then
		local folder = Instance.new("Folder")
		folder.Name = "leaderstats"
		folder.Parent = player
		
		local Customers = Instance.new("IntValue")
		Customers.Parent = folder
		Customers.Name = "Customers"
		
		local Cash = Instance.new("IntValue")
		Cash.Parent = folder
		Cash.Name = "Cash"

		Cash.Value = ds1:GetAsync(player.UserId) or 0
			ds1:SetAsync(player.UserId, Cash.Value)

		Cash.Changed:Connect(function()
			ds1:SetAsync(player.UserId, Cash.Value)
		end)
		
		Customers.Value = ds2:GetAsync(player.UserId) or 0
			ds2:SetAsync(player.UserId, Customers.Value)

		Customers.Changed:Connect(function()
			ds2:SetAsync(player.UserId, Customers.Value)
		end)
	end
end)

game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(player)
	player:WaitForChild("leaderstats")
	if player.leaderstats.Customers.Value == 7 then
		print("test")
	end
end)

This might be the one that paused the script?

How much customers exactly does your player? I’m assuming you meant to use “bigger than” instead of “equal to” for the operator.

This checks if the player has exactly 7 customers, use “>” instead if you want to compare if .Value is bigger than 7.

Nope. Removing that makes it throw this error:

The player I have has exactly 7, I’m using the exact way just as a testing feature.

#6

can you just do like

if player:WaitForChild("leaderstats").Customers.Value == 7 then

instead?

#7

You could, but nothing changes.

#8

I have an idea about what’s happening

the value will be changed, right?

it wont detect the value if changed

#9

do like

player:WaitForChild("leaderstats").Customer:GetPropertyChangedSignal("Value"):Connect(function()
    player:WaitForChild("leaderstats")
	if player.leaderstats.Customers.Value == 7 then
		print("test")
	end
end)

so that it will detects if the value has changed

I’m not really sure if this is the problem, but maybe both of the functions are running at the same time… Try using .CharacterAdded for:

Or can’t you just include the second function inside the first?

		Customers.Value = ds2:GetAsync(player.UserId) or 0
		ds2:SetAsync(player.UserId, Customers.Value)

		if ds2(Player.UserId, Customers.Value) == 7 then
			print("hi")
		end
