full module script

full fulcrum
#

so if I get this right, you want to be able to get the full table by sending a function a the name (as a string)?

worn briar
#

yes

#

function GetPetData.ReturnData(Pet)<-- the pet here comes through as a name such as Red, Blue or Green

full fulcrum
#

if so, then just do

--all I changed is fixing the discord symbols so it highlights the lua syntax. Rest is still the same
local GetPetData = {}

   local PetDataBase = {
        
        ["Red"] = {
            PetName = "Red",
            CoinsMultiplier = 1.2,
            GemsMultiplier = 1.2
        },
        
        
        ["Green"] = {
            PetName = "Green",
            CoinsMutliplier = 1.4,
            GemsMultiplier = 1.4
        },
        
        
        ["Blue"] = {
            PetName = "Blue",
            CoinsMultiplier = 1.6,
            GemsMultiplier = 1.6
        },
    }

function GetPetData.ReturnData(PetName:string):{}?
  return PetDataBase[PetName]
end

return GetPetData
#

maybe fix some capitalization issues if I accidentally missed a cap or something similar

worn briar
#

#

ill let you know how it goes 1 minuet

worn briar
full fulcrum
#

you can automatize the pet name tho

worn briar
# full fulcrum no problem

i got a problem now when red is selected it works perfectly but when green or blue is selected on this line petPad:WaitForChild("CoinsMultiplier").Value = data.CoinsMultiplier i get value of type nil cannot be converted to a number so its giving nil

#

i added print(data.PetName) just above and it prints green so its just the values

#

nevermind it was a spelling error

#

nevermind it wasnt, spelling error didnt fix anything

#

oh my nevermind it was anotherr one which actually did fix it

#

i appolagise
