    I tryed to add some loops and debugs, but can’t find error

script:

local PlayersService = game:GetService("Players")
local Player = PlayersService.LocalPlayer
local PlayerGui = Player.PlayerGui
local Points = Player.leaderstats.Points
local MorePointsButton = script.Parent
local UpgradeCost = 2
local GameGUI = PlayerGui.GameGUI
local StatsFolder = GameGUI.GameFrame.PlayableFrame:WaitForChild("Stats")
local PointsMulti = StatsFolder.PointsMulti
local RebirthMulti = StatsFolder.RebirthMulti
MorePointsButton.MouseButton1Click:Connect(function()
	if Points == UpgradeCost then
		PointsMulti.Value = PointsMulti.Value + (1 * RebirthMulti)
	else
	return
		end

end)

This is the error, Points.

You are only referring to the Instance itself, not the value. So you should do Player.leaderstats.Points.Value.

Oh sorry, forgot just last time didn’t saved my game, so this is old progress already used value, same error

#4

Could you show me which line points the error and the error message?

#5

No errors, just made some prints give me a second

#6

Or save rewriting and do

if Points.Value == UpgradeCost then

My loop is working, when player don’t have enough points it’s return. Oh i see i wrote == not >=, + when 2 == 2 it says:

You’re attempting to perform arithmetic operations with an instance and a number. You should refer the Value property.

Uhhh??? Don’t understand, just like i need to do arithmetic thing

Oh got it bruh, i’m stupid loool

Yay it works, thanks you a lot!

Meaning, let’s say I’m comparing a number with a part. It errors because in logic, you can’t do math operations with a part. This same goes to your Points instance. You’re only referring the Points object itself, not the .Value.

Yeah got it already, thanks you a lot!
