dapper anvil Apr 3, 2025, 12:08 PM

@wispy seal I can help

#

hold on let me recreate this in my test game

#

so I have a very simple leaderboard script

game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(plr)
    local leaderstats = Instance.new("Folder", plr)
    leaderstats.Name = "leaderstats"
    local coins= Instance.new("IntValue", leaderstats)
    coins.Value = 0
    coins.Name = "Coins"
    
end)```

#

#

Next, add a BindableEvent into ReplicatedStorage and change the leaderstats code to this:

local leaderstats
local coins
game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(plr)
    leaderstats = Instance.new("Folder", plr)
    leaderstats.Name = "leaderstats"
    coins= Instance.new("IntValue", leaderstats)
    coins.Value = 0
    coins.Name = "Coins"
    
end)

game.ReplicatedStorage.AddCoins.Event:Connect(function(x)
    coins.Value = coins.Value + x
end)```

#

on the part, add a serverscript with this code:

local pr = script.Parent
pr.Touched:Connect(function(other)
    local hum = other.Parent:FindFirstChild("Humanoid")
    if hum then
        game.ReplicatedStorage.AddCoins:Fire(1)
    end
end)```

#

and you have your finished product :)

#

ofc if you are using this for like a simulator or a game then you want a delay, all you need is a simple task.wait

local pr = script.Parent
pr.Touched:Connect(function(other)
    local hum = other.Parent:FindFirstChild("Humanoid")
    if hum then
        task.wait(1)
        game.ReplicatedStorage.AddCoins:Fire(1)
    end
end)```

#

the reason it is so fast is because the roblox player is made up of so many parts.

next hedge Apr 3, 2025, 2:08 PM

#

ebon root game.ReplicatedStorage.AddCoins:Fire(10000000000000000)

what

#

whats the point of that

ebon root Apr 3, 2025, 2:09 PM

#

why use a bindable event

next hedge Apr 3, 2025, 2:09 PM

#

"an exploiter can use a remote event"😭😭

#

you can also just use a bindable event for easy communication between server scripts

ebon root Apr 3, 2025, 2:10 PM

#

guy doesnt know how to get the player

#

its just gonna confuse him

next hedge Apr 3, 2025, 2:10 PM

        if plr and not table.find(touched, plr) then
          table.insert(touched, plr)
          game.ReplicatedStorage.AddCoins:Fire(1)
          task.delay(1, function()
          table.remove(touched, table.find(touched, plr))
