Ths secripts goal is so that if someone goes through it with a car they get + 800 cash. But it does not work. I want it so that there is a part at the finish line and the person that goes through in a car gets the 800 cash Here is the script:

script.Parent.Touched:Connect(function(hit)
if hit.Parent:FindFirstChild(“Humanoid”) then
local plr = game.Players:FindFirstChild(hit.Parent.Name)
plr.leaderstats.Cash.Value = plr.leaderstats.Cash.Value + 800
end
end)

I also think theres something wrong with the leaderboard script its main job is to give money so you can buy cars and to save your total money.

local DataStoreService = game:GetService(“DataStoreService”)
local PlayerCash = DataStoreService:GetDataStore(“PlayerCash”)

function OnPlayerAdded(player)
local stats = Instance.new(“Folder”, player)
stats.Name = ‘leaderstats’
local Cash = Instance.new(“IntValue”, stats)
Cash.Name = “$”
Cash.Value = 150000
local data
local success, err = pcall(function()
data = PlayerCash:GetAsync(player.UserId)
end)
if success then
print(“Data loaded!”)
if data then
Cash.Value = data
end
else
print("There was an error while getting data of player " … player.Name)
warn(err)
end
while true do
wait(180)
Cash.Value = Cash.Value +100
end
end

function OnPlayerRemoving(player)
local success, err = pcall(function()
PlayerCash:SetAsync(player.UserId, player.leaderstats:FindFirstChild(“$”).Value)
end)
if success then
print(“Data saved!”)
else
print("There was an error while saving data of player " … player.Name)
warn(err)
end
end

game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(OnPlayerAdded)
game.Players.PlayerRemoving:Connect(OnPlayerRemoving)

A alternative would be making a finish line that gives you cash.

For plr.leaderstats.Cash.Value = +800 it needs to be plr.leaderstats.Cash.Value += 800

Didnt work in the game at all.

niether of yours

do

plr.leaderstats.Cash.Value += 800

that will work.

6 
script.Parent.Touched:Connect(function(hit)
  if hit.Parent:FindFirstChild("Humanoid") then
       local plr = game.Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(hit.Parent)
       plr.leaderstats.Cash.Value += 800
  end
end

That should work.

Nope didnt work.

I probaly should have put this in the post but I want a part that you can go through to then earn 800 cash in game.

I have the part not the script.

8

Did my 2nd reply work? Or do you get any errors?

9

Nope didnt work.

Am I doing something wrong with the part.

10 
script.Parent.Touched:Connect(function(hit)
if hit.Parent:FindFirstChild("Humanoid") then
	print("i found the humanoid!")
	local plr = game.Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(hit.Parent)
	plr.leaderstats.Cash.Value += 800
end
end)

i tried this and it worked.

11

I think you did something wrong with the part yes.

I think it might be my leaderstats script it says:
local DataStoreService = game:GetService(“DataStoreService”)
local PlayerCash = DataStoreService:GetDataStore(“PlayerCash”)

function OnPlayerAdded(player)
local stats = Instance.new(“Folder”, player)
stats.Name = ‘leaderstats’
local Cash = Instance.new(“NumberValue”, stats)
Cash.Name = “$”
Cash.Value = 0
local data
local success, err = pcall(function()
data = PlayerCash:GetAsync(player.UserId)
end)
if success then
print(“Data loaded!”)
if data then
Cash.Value = data
end
else
print("There was an error while getting data of player " … player.Name)
warn(err)
end
while true do
wait(2)
Cash.Value = Cash.Value +0
end
end

function OnPlayerRemoving(player)
local success, err = pcall(function()
PlayerCash:SetAsync(player.UserId, player.leaderstats:FindFirstChild(“$”).Value)
end)
if success then
print(“Data saved!”)
else
print("There was an error while saving data of player " … player.Name)
warn(err)
end
end

game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(OnPlayerAdded)
game.Players.PlayerRemoving:Connect(OnPlayerRemoving)

OHHHH i see it. You have to do plr.leaderstats[“$”].Value += 800.

17

because the name of the value is “$”

18

script.Parent.Touched:Connect(function(hit)
if hit.Parent:FindFirstChild(“Humanoid”) then
print(“i found the humanoid!”)
local plr = game.Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(hit.Parent)
plr.leaderstats.[“$”].Value += 800.
end
end)

This not working.

19

In the leaderstats script, change “NumberValue” to “IntValue”.

The part still didnt work after changing that.
