I’m making a button simulator game and I put this script in a part.
script.Parent.Touched:Connect(function(hit)
local player = hit.Parent.Name
local gameplayer = game.Players[player]
if gameplayer.leaderstats.Clicks.Value >= 50 then
gameplayer.leaderstats.Clicks.Value = gameplayer.leaderstats.Clicks.Value - 50
gameplayer.leaderstats.Multiplier.Value = gameplayer.leaderstats.Multiplier.Value + 1
end
end)
But, it isn’t changing any stats.
Are there any errors being logged? Try this code
script.Parent.Touched:Connect(function(hit)
local plr = game.Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(hit.Parent)
if plr then
local leaderstats = plr:findFirstChild('leaderstats')
if not leaderstats then print('no leaderstats') return end
local Clicks = leaderstats:findFirstChild('Clicks')
if not Clicks then print('no clicks val') return end
local Multiplier = leaderstats:findFirstChild('Multiplier')
if not Multiplier then print('no multiplier') return end
if Clicks.Value >= 50 then
Clicks.Value = Clicks.Value - 50
Multiplier.Value = Multiplier.Value + 1
end
end
end)
no errors were being logged before and after i tried your code. pretty odd. if it matters, the parent of what needs to be touched is a model.
Workspace
Buttons (Folder)
Model (Primary Part = Buy)
Buy (Part)
Script
Part (button rim)
Put prints in your script to see if the button is firing when it’s touched and what the values of the variables are.
for example
script.Parent.Touched:Connect(function(hit)
print("button touched ")
local player = hit.Parent.Name
print("by ",Name)
local gameplayer = game.Players[player]
print(gameplayer.leaderstats.Clicks.Value)
if gameplayer.leaderstats.Clicks.Value >= 50 then
gameplayer.leaderstats.Clicks.Value = gameplayer.leaderstats.Clicks.Value - 50
gameplayer.leaderstats.Multiplier.Value = gameplayer.leaderstats.Multiplier.Value + 1
end
end)
It prints
“button touched
by TailsSlashMiles92
1”
So it seems it’s not getting the value and it’s staying at 1.
local player = hit.Parent.Name
local gameplayer = game.Players[player]
maybe change gameplayer to
local gameplayer = game.Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(hit.Parent)
not sure if this will change much*
it just has the same result, as GetPlayerFromCharacter() does the exact thing as game.Players[hit.Parent] - gets the name and searches it in players
i know that
idk why your script isnt working, is it local?
It’s a regular script in Workspace. If we can’t figure this problem out, I’m just gonna do clickDetection which is really inefficient for a Button Simulator.
i just tested your script, it is working in my game, are you sure you spelt the leaderstats correctly?
is CanTouch true?
leaderstats was spelled correctly, and canTouch is true. I’m not 100% sure what’s going on.
can we get a screenshot of the workspace?
Alright, here
(im talking about the first image and if its a model and its in a part it wont change anyhting)
that doesn’t change anything, i really don’t understand whats going on here, thats confusing
Not sure why. You wanted a screenshot of workspace so i gave it to you…
OH, THAT CHANGES EVERYTHING, since its a local script, the leaderstat value doesn’t change in the actual server.
oh. i guess i really didnt think that one through. Should i change it to a script and alter the code?
yeah, put it in severscriptservice
and just make it
game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(plr)
nvm delete the variable , i just reread the code
also you can do
while wait(0.1) do
end
It’s finally working, thanks!
game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(player)
local leaderstats = player:WaitForChild("leaderstats")
local plrClick = leaderstats:WaitForChild("Clicks")
local plrMulti = leaderstats:WaitForChild("Multiplier")
while wait(0.1) do
plrClick.Value += (1 + (1*plrMulti.Value))
end
end)
