#

So how do you level up?

#

It just changes the number of the textlabel and that's it?

warm fulcrum Dec 4, 2022, 6:09 AM

#

Yep.

#

When you capture the flag, it increases the cash by 10.

#

Or cash.Value.

terse lichen Dec 4, 2022, 6:10 AM

#

So technically

#

There is no leaderstat, correct?

#

Just the textlabel and it changes the text

warm fulcrum Dec 4, 2022, 6:11 AM

#

Nope. For other scripts, like adding cash via robux dev products, where I normally refer to other stuff as player.leaderstats.Wins.value, I refer to it as player.Cash.value.

#

It works the same way just not showing on the leaderboard.

terse lichen Dec 4, 2022, 6:11 AM

#

I personally used a Datastore to store their level values and then if it's changed it changes the label

#

There might be a workaround to work for your system but Ima have to boot up studio myself

#

Is it in serverscriptservice?

warm fulcrum Dec 4, 2022, 6:12 AM

#

yep. and the cash amount is stored in a Datastore.

studio ** You are now Level 1! ** studio

warm fulcrum Dec 4, 2022, 6:12 AM

#

the textlabel just displays Cash.Value

terse lichen Dec 4, 2022, 6:12 AM

#

Alright

#

So try to dooo

#

One sec lemme think

upbeat yokeBOT Dec 4, 2022, 6:13 AM

#

studio ** You are now Level 2! ** studio

terse lichen Dec 4, 2022, 6:15 AM

#

actually

#

why not change leaderstats to the name of your datastore cash value

#

So it wont look for leaderstats it'll look for the cash value

warm fulcrum Dec 4, 2022, 6:16 AM

#

That's the problem though how do I reference something that the player has. When you reference something on leaderstats, you reference the player's leaderstats. But for my currency it's something the player directly has.

terse lichen Dec 4, 2022, 6:17 AM

#

what's the name of the datastore cash value

#

so not the textlabel but the cash value

warm fulcrum Dec 4, 2022, 6:19 AM

#

Oh wait. That's weird, I just realized the name of the datastore cash value is referenced like this...

Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(player)
`player.CharacterAdded:Connect(function(character)
local hasDied = Instance.new("BoolValue", character)
hasDied.Name = "HasDied"
hasDied.Value = false

    character.Humanoid:GetPropertyChangedSignal("Health"):Connect(function()
        if character.Humanoid.Health <= 0 and not character.HasDied.Value then    
            player.leaderstats.Deaths.Value = player.leaderstats.Deaths.Value + 1
        end
    end)
end)
player:WaitForChild("leaderstats")
local cash = Instance.new("IntValue", player)
cash.Name = "Cash"

local wins = Instance.new("IntValue", player.leaderstats)
wins.Name = "Wins"

--local melees = Instance.new("IntValue", player.leaderstats)
--melees.Name = "Melees"

player.CharacterAdded:Connect(function(Character)
    Character.Humanoid.Died:Connect(function(Died)
        local creator = Character.Humanoid:FindFirstChild("creator")
        local leaderstats = creator.Value:FindFirstChild("leaderstats")
        if creator ~= nil and creator.Value ~= nil then
            leaderstats.Cash.Value = leaderstats.Cash.Value + 5
            --leaderstats.Melees.Value = leaderstats.Melees.Value + 1
        end
    end)
end)`

#

So in turn my code should just work without any changes....

terse lichen Dec 4, 2022, 6:20 AM

#

So the cash value is actually inside the leaderstat?

warm fulcrum Dec 4, 2022, 6:20 AM

#

yeah but its not displayed on leaderstats

terse lichen Dec 4, 2022, 6:20 AM

#

Is it inside of it?

warm fulcrum Dec 4, 2022, 6:20 AM

#

You mean like at the top where it shows the player and like Team, Wins, etc.

terse lichen Dec 4, 2022, 6:20 AM

#

So like

#

inside of game.Players

#

is the player

warm fulcrum Dec 4, 2022, 6:21 AM

#

yes

terse lichen Dec 4, 2022, 6:21 AM

#

and inside the player should be leaderstats correct?

warm fulcrum Dec 4, 2022, 6:21 AM

#

well yeah

terse lichen Dec 4, 2022, 6:21 AM

#

so

#

shouldnt the cash be inside the leaderstat

#

so game.players.player.leaderstats.cash.value

warm fulcrum Dec 4, 2022, 6:22 AM

#

it doesnt have to? i mean it works fine without it being inside it

#

I can make developer products incease it and events? It's just awarding badges causing the problems...

terse lichen Dec 4, 2022, 6:22 AM

#

So I found a script online to award a badge when they have reached a certain amount of Cash or exceeded. But it does not work. I think it could be a problem with the 5th line because Cash in my cash is not in leaderstats, it's just shown as a text label on screen but if I remove that line of script I get an error about indexing nil.

local BadgeID = 2124831642 --My Badge ID local Cash = "Cash" --My Money local HowMuch = 10 --How Much They Will Need To Have game.Players.PlayerAdded:connect(function(player) repeat wait() until p:findFirstChild("leaderstats") ~= nil player.Cash.Changed:connect(function() if player.Cash.Value <= HowMuch - 1 then return end game:GetService("BadgeService"):AwardBadge(player.userId, BadgeID) end) end)

#

In line 10

#

player.Cash.Changed

#

shouldnt it be player.leaderstats.Cash.Changed

warm fulcrum Dec 4, 2022, 6:23 AM

#

yes

#

uh

#

No that's not how it's referenced in other scripts like let me show you an example.

terse lichen Dec 4, 2022, 6:23 AM

#

Oh wait. That's weird, I just realized the name of the datastore cash value is referenced like this...

Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(player)
`player.CharacterAdded:Connect(function(character)
local hasDied = Instance.new("BoolValue", character)
hasDied.Name = "HasDied"
hasDied.Value = false

    character.Humanoid:GetPropertyChangedSignal("Health"):Connect(function()
        if character.Humanoid.Health <= 0 and not character.HasDied.Value then    
            player.leaderstats.Deaths.Value = player.leaderstats.Deaths.Value + 1
        end
    end)
end)
player:WaitForChild("leaderstats")
local cash = Instance.new("IntValue", player)
cash.Name = "Cash"

local wins = Instance.new("IntValue", player.leaderstats)
wins.Name = "Wins"

--local melees = Instance.new("IntValue", player.leaderstats)
--melees.Name = "Melees"

player.CharacterAdded:Connect(function(Character)
    Character.Humanoid.Died:Connect(function(Died)
        local creator = Character.Humanoid:FindFirstChild("creator")
        local leaderstats = creator.Value:FindFirstChild("leaderstats")
        if creator ~= nil and creator.Value ~= nil then
            leaderstats.Cash.Value = leaderstats.Cash.Value + 5
            --leaderstats.Melees.Value = leaderstats.Melees.Value + 1
        end
    end)
end)`

#

in this code it references it through the leaderstat?

warm fulcrum Dec 4, 2022, 6:24 AM

#

ik it is referenced that way

terse lichen Dec 4, 2022, 6:24 AM

#

leaderstats.Cash.Value

warm fulcrum Dec 4, 2022, 6:24 AM

#

but if u take a look at this script i made

#

'local Players = game:GetService("Players")
local mps = game:GetService("MarketplaceService")

mps.ProcessReceipt = function(receiptInfo)
local player = Players:GetPlayerByUserId(receiptInfo.PlayerId)

if player then
    if receiptInfo.ProductId == 1208410513 then
        player.Cash.Value += 100
    elseif receiptInfo.ProductId == 1342774613 then
        player.Cash.Value += 1000
    elseif receiptInfo.ProductId == 1342770170 then
        player.Cash.Value += 300
    elseif receiptInfo.ProductId == 1342771507 then
        player.Cash.Value += 500
    elseif receiptInfo.ProductId == 1343023770 then
        player.leaderstats.Wins.Value += 30
    elseif receiptInfo.ProductId == 1343022593 then
        player.leaderstats.Wins.Value += 10
    end
else
    return Enum.ProductPurchaseDecision.NotProcessedYet
end

return Enum.ProductPurchaseDecision.PurchaseGranted

end'

terse lichen Dec 4, 2022, 6:24 AM

#

Alright)

#

And does it work?

warm fulcrum Dec 4, 2022, 6:24 AM

#

It's referenced as player.Cash.value and it works fine

#

I tested it

#

I bought the dev product

#

and it awarded me the cash

terse lichen Dec 4, 2022, 6:25 AM

#

did you check the value to be sure it changed?

warm fulcrum Dec 4, 2022, 6:25 AM

#

terse lichen did you check the value to be sure it changed?

yeah it went from 790

upbeat yokeBOT Dec 4, 2022, 6:25 AM

#

studio ** You are now Level 2! ** studio

warm fulcrum Dec 4, 2022, 6:25 AM

#

to 890

terse lichen Dec 4, 2022, 6:25 AM

#

hmm alright

#

so back to changing leaderstats to Cash then?

warm fulcrum Dec 4, 2022, 6:25 AM

#

yep

terse lichen Dec 4, 2022, 6:25 AM

#

sooo

warm fulcrum Dec 4, 2022, 6:25 AM

#

its that FindFirstChild

#

line

#

thats causing problems

#

idk what to replace leaderstats

#

as

terse lichen Dec 4, 2022, 6:26 AM

#

game.Players.PlayerAdded:connect(function(player)
repeat wait() until p:findFirstChild("Cash") ~= nil

warm fulcrum Dec 4, 2022, 6:26 AM

#

Should it be Cash or should it be Player?

terse lichen Dec 4, 2022, 6:26 AM

#

you should change p to player

#

so it finds the first child of the player which is Cash

#

and make sure FindFirstChild is capital

#

capitalized

warm fulcrum Dec 4, 2022, 6:27 AM

#

hmmmm let my try that

terse lichen Dec 4, 2022, 6:27 AM

#

Alrighty, let me know how it goes!

warm fulcrum Dec 4, 2022, 6:27 AM

#

should Player be capital

#

or lowercase

terse lichen Dec 4, 2022, 6:27 AM

#

no

#

since you put function(player) it will be lowercase

warm fulcrum Dec 4, 2022, 6:28 AM

#

ok

terse lichen Dec 4, 2022, 6:28 AM

#

if you put function(Player) then wherever you put Player needs to be capital

#

Lmk if it works!

studio ** You are now Level 3! ** studio

warm fulcrum Dec 4, 2022, 6:33 AM

#

It didn't work out @terse lichen

terse lichen Dec 4, 2022, 6:34 AM

#

It didnt?

#

yk what

#

So I found a script online to award a badge when they have reached a certain amount of Cash or exceeded. But it does not work. I think it could be a problem with the 5th line because Cash in my cash is not in leaderstats, it's just shown as a text label on screen but if I remove that line of script I get an error about indexing nil.

local BadgeID = 2124831642 --My Badge ID local Cash = "Cash" --My Money local HowMuch = 10 --How Much They Will Need To Have game.Players.PlayerAdded:connect(function(player) repeat wait() until p:findFirstChild("leaderstats") ~= nil player.Cash.Changed:connect(function() if player.Cash.Value <= HowMuch - 1 then return end game:GetService("BadgeService"):AwardBadge(player.userId, BadgeID) end) end)

warm fulcrum Dec 4, 2022, 6:35 AM

#

nope didnt work out

terse lichen Dec 4, 2022, 6:35 AM

#

Remove the line entirely

#

so just copy and paste this

warm fulcrum Dec 4, 2022, 6:35 AM

#

I did that if you read it

terse lichen Dec 4, 2022, 6:35 AM

#

one sec

warm fulcrum Dec 4, 2022, 6:35 AM

#

That give a error

terse lichen Dec 4, 2022, 6:35 AM

#

I know but one second

warm fulcrum Dec 4, 2022, 6:35 AM

#

Okay.

terse lichen Dec 4, 2022, 6:36 AM

#

is it a local script or normal script?

warm fulcrum Dec 4, 2022, 6:36 AM

#

normal

#

in ServerScriptService

terse lichen Dec 4, 2022, 6:37 AM

#

one second

#

try a local script instead of a normal script and put this below the variables

game.Players.LocalPlayer.Cash.Changed:connect(function(player)
if player.Cash.Value <= HowMuch - 1 then return end
game:GetService("BadgeService"):AwardBadge(player.userId, BadgeID)
end)
end)`

#

so altogether itll be

#

`local BadgeID = 2124831642 --My Badge ID
local Cash = "Cash" --My Money
local HowMuch = 10 --How Much

game.Players.LocalPlayer.Cash.Changed:connect(function()
if player.Cash.Value <= HowMuch - 1 then return end
game:GetService("BadgeService"):AwardBadge(player.userId, BadgeID)
end)
end)`

warm fulcrum Dec 4, 2022, 6:42 AM

#

so where do i put the local script again @terse lichen

terse lichen Dec 4, 2022, 6:43 AM

#

StarterPlayerScripts

warm fulcrum Dec 4, 2022, 6:44 AM

#

okay im testing it

terse lichen Dec 4, 2022, 6:44 AM

#

Alright

warm fulcrum Dec 4, 2022, 6:48 AM

#

We have problems without testing

#

@terse lichen

terse lichen Dec 4, 2022, 6:50 AM

#

Oh right

#

put (player) inside the function

#

and remove the second end)

warm fulcrum Dec 4, 2022, 6:53 AM

#

Well I will work on this again tommorow.

#

I gotta sleep. I guess.
