Script does nothing when enabled

I’m trying to make it so the script takes away your item, and then gives you money in return.

The script does absolutely nothing, doesn’t even print when I put a print statement outside of the function, there are no errors either.

The script is a clone under a proximity prompt which is put into a part in workspace.

script.Parent.Triggered:Connect(function(player)
	local Item = script.Parent.Value.Value
	print(Item)
	if player.Backpack:FindFirstChild(Item) then
		player:WaitForChild("leaderstats")
		player.Backpack[Item]:Destroy()
		player.leaderstats.Money.Value += math.random(50,80)
	elseif player.Character:FindFirstChild(Item) then
		player:WaitForChild("leaderstats")
		player.Character[Item]:Destroy()
		player.leaderstats.Money.Value += math.random(50,80)
	else
		print("you dont have the item")
	end
end)

Here’s a snippet from the other script that’s supposed to enable it n stuff.

		local prompt = script.Parent.Parent.DeliverPrompt:Clone()
		prompt.Parent = game.Workspace.Towns[city][num]
		prompt.Value.Value = script.Parent.Item.Text
		prompt.Script.Enabled = true

By the way a lot of my scripts could probably be written WAY better but I only started scripting like a few months ago, sorry.

try a different way of enabling it like making a value and set it to false and check if the value turnes true it does what it should do.
