oh yep it works now but insdead of not shortening it to 1t or something it says this:

#35

so try this:

local replicatedStorage = game:GetService("ReplicatedStorage")
local players = game:GetService("Players")

local formatNumber = require(replicatedStorage:WaitForChild("FormatNumberAlt"))
local player = players.LocalPlayer

local gems = player:WaitForChild("leaderstats"):WaitForChild("Gems")

local gemsLabel = script.Parent:WaitForChild("Gems"):WaitForChild("Label")

local textGems = formatNumber.FormatCompact(tonumber(gems.Value))
gemsLabel.Text = textGems

while true do
	wait()
	local text = formatNumber.FormatCompact(tonumber(gems.Value))
	gemsLabel.Text = textGems
end

if this is not work so the “FormatNumberAlt” module in replicated storage is not working

#36

yea it aint working now, i wonder whats wrong with formatbumberalt

#37

so what should i do now about the script?

#38

im making new script maybe its take some time

#39

I completely missed the fact that you were using the older, alternative API of the FormatNumber module. Using the same code I provided earlier, remove .Simple in this line:

local formatNumber = require(replicatedStorage:WaitForChild("FormatNumberAlt").Simple)

The linked post is updated.

I reckon you use MoneyLib. It’s good and reliable

#41

um the line is kinda crossed out…

#42

It was intentional, as I have updated my post I was mentioning. Have you tried running the code again, with the change I made?

#43

oh wait did you edit it again?

Strange. What Value are you using for the leaderstats? NumberValue or IntValue? Something else?

And what value did you exactly place in the object?

#49

i’m using an int value and what object?

#50

Before calling FormatCompact(), can you print the value of Gems?

local gemsLabel = script.Parent.Gems.Label

warn(`I have {gems.Value} gem(s)`) ------ Here
local textGems = formatNumber.FormatCompact(tonumber(gems.Value))
gemsLabel.Text = textGems

local function update() -- Callback function separated to its own block.
	warn(`I now have {gems.Value} gem(s)`) ------ Here
	textGems = formatNumber.FormatCompact(gems.Value)
	gemsLabel.Text = textGems
end
#51

ok so which script shall i plop it in?

#52

ok which script though im kinda confused?

#53

It’s the same script. Do not replace all of its code with the one I provided, rather replace the portion of the code that’s identical to it.
