StarterPlayerScripts or StarterCharacterScripts will work.

Alright thank you so much ill go try it out

#7

When I try it I get the error “Char is not a valid member of JackFr_ost”

#8

I put “Char” instead of “Character” for some reason, try now.

Thanks that one works now but im getting this error for the server message
“OnServerEvent can only be used on the server - Client - LocalScript:7”

#10

Should be “OnClientEvent” I’ve replaced that in the edit, it’s late my end so excuse these mistakes (I usually don’t make them).
Should be working now.

Same its midnight here, Thank you for your help tho, brb

Perfect, it works great, thank you so much!!

You can use a BindableEvent instead of a RemoteEvent. In case you don’t know a BindableEvent is like a RemoteEvent but you can use it between the same type of script for example:

  • Sending a message from a Script to another Script
  • Sending a message from a LocalScript to another LocalScript

However, a RemoteEvent can only be used between Different types of scripts for example:

  • Sending a message from a Script to another LocalScript
  • Sending a message from a LocalScript to another Script

What I am trying to say is you can use a Script and a BindableEvent if you want instead to make it easier.

No problem.

You can mark your own post as solved here, since it’s similar to this thread.

Oh yeah I found an issue with it, The debounce doesnt just work for 1 player but for the whole server so when 1 player touches it everyone needs to wait 60 seconds. Any idea on how to fix this?

#17

Oh, I wasn’t sure if that would be an issue or not, here:

local players = game:GetService("Players")
local repStorage = game:GetService("ReplicatedStorage")
local wonEvent = repStorage:WaitForChild("Events"):WaitForChild("Won")
local playerDebounce = {}

function onTouched(part)
	if part.Parent:FindFirstChild("Humanoid") then
		local plr = players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(part.Parent)
		local char = plr.Character
		local hum = char:WaitForChild("Humanoid")
		if plr then
			local leaderstats = plr:WaitForChild("leaderstats")
			if leaderstats then
				local score = leaderstats:WaitForChild("Wins")
				if score then
					if table.find(playerDebounce, plr) then
						return
					end
					table.insert(playerDebounce, plr)
					wonEvent:FireAllClients(plr)
					score.Value += 1
					task.wait(60)
					table.remove(playerDebounce, plr)
				end
			end
		end
	end
end

script.Parent.Touched:connect(onTouched)
