Problems with IncrementPoints

[quasi birch]

lua```

game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(player)
local leaderstats = Instance.new("Folder")
leaderstats.Name = "leaderstats"
leaderstats.Parent = player

local AfkPoints = Instance.new("IntValue")
AfkPoints.Name = "Time"
AfkPoints.Value = 0
AfkPoints.Parent = leaderstats

local Rebirth = Instance.new("IntValue")
Rebirth.Name = "Rebirth"
Rebirth.Value = 0
Rebirth.Parent = leaderstats

while true do 
    wait(1)
    AfkPoints.Value = AfkPoints.Value + 1
end

local Rebirth = Instance.new("IntValue")
Rebirth.Name = "Rebirth"
Rebirth.Value = 0
Rebirth.Parent = leaderstats

end)

local Boxes = game.Workspace.ValueChanger:WaitForChild("Point")
local coins = Boxes:WaitForChild("Time")

for _, Point in pairs(coins:GetChildren()) do
Point.Touched:Connect(function(otherPart)
local humanoid = otherPart.Parent:FindFirstChild("Humanoid")
local player = game.Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(otherPart.Parent)
local touched = Boxes.Touched:FindFirstChild("Touched")

    if humanoid and player and touched and touched == false then
        
        touched.Value = true
        
        player.leaderstats.Time.Value += 10
        
        Boxes.Transparency = 0.5
        
    end
    
end)

end

so my problems is the increment value of my part being touched

Infinite yield possible on 'Workspace.ValueChanger.Point:WaitForChild("Time")' - Studio

this is what is says in output

[gentle grove]

Ye cuz

Time

Is in leaderstats

Not point

[quasi birch]

Thats why the += 10 doesnt work ?

[gentle grove]

That's why u getting this error

[quasi birch]

How can i correct that ?

[final kestrel]

bro

[quasi birch]

Im a beginner

[final kestrel]

😭

Your trying to find a nonexistsent instance in workspace

when you created an instance inside a player (leaderstats)

if your doing this in server, itssss gonna be kindof confusing

in a local script

you can just do a Players.LocalPlayer. ...

and find the Value From there

[gentle grove]

Please don't teach him

To use

Local script

For that

[final kestrel]

i never said to use local script

[quasi birch]

[gentle grove]

Don't even mention editing leaderstats on local

[final kestrel]

yeah i shouldnt

cause it wouldnt even work, servers wont even see the changes

my fault on that

but

[quasi birch]

so the part of the code not working is that one :

lua```

 local Boxes = game.Workspace.ValueChanger:WaitForChild("Point")

local coins = Boxes:FindFirstChild("leaderstats")

for _, Point in pairs(coins:GetChildren()) do
Point.Touched:Connect(function(otherPart)
local humanoid = otherPart.Parent:FindFirstChild("Humanoid")
local player = game.Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(otherPart.Parent)
local touched = Point.Touched:FindFirstChild("Touched")

    if humanoid and player and touched and touched == false then
        
        touched.Value = true
        
        player.leaderstats.Time.Value += 10
        
        Boxes.Transparency = 0.5
        
    end
    
end)

end ```

[final kestrel]

local Boxes = game.Workspace.ValueChanger:WaitForChild("Point")

local coins = Boxes:FindFirstChild("leaderstats")

for _, Point in pairs(coins:GetChildren()) do
    Point.Touched:Connect(function(otherPart)
        local humanoid = otherPart.Parent:FindFirstChild("Humanoid")
        local player = game.Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(otherPart.Parent)
        local touched = Point.Touched:FindFirstChild("Touched")
        
        if humanoid and player and touched and touched == false then
            
            touched.Value = true
            
            player.leaderstats.Time.Value += 10
            
            Boxes.Transparency = 0.5
            
        end
        
    end)
end   

dont mind me js gonna do this

[quasi birch]

[final kestrel]

the error is local coins = Boxes:WaitForChild("Time")

Time is nowhere found inside Boxes

another issue is

local coins = Boxes:WaitForChild("Time")

wait

waait

wrong one

local touched = Point.Touched:FindFirstChild("Touched")

this one

What the hell is this?

Are you trying to find an instance named Touched?

[quasi birch]

A boolValue

[final kestrel]

Yeah, The issue is whats with the Point.Touched in that line?

If your only trying to find an boolval inside of Point

[quasi birch]

Point is my part

[sour tinsel]

** You are now Level 7! **

[final kestrel]

Yeah, you wouldnt need local touched = Point.Touched:FindFirstChild("Touched") overall IF your only trying to find a boolvalue named touched.

[quasi birch]

Even with a GetService from leaderstats it doest find the Value

I verified with a statement

[final kestrel]

????

Bro

😭

[quasi birch]

Nah i mean to call the leaderstats folder

[final kestrel]

game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(player)
    local leaderstats = Instance.new("Folder")
    leaderstats.Name = "leaderstats"
    leaderstats.Parent = player

    local AfkPoints = Instance.new("IntValue")
    AfkPoints.Name = "Time"
    AfkPoints.Value = 0
    AfkPoints.Parent = leaderstats

    local Rebirth = Instance.new("IntValue")
    Rebirth.Name = "Rebirth"
    Rebirth.Value = 0
    Rebirth.Parent = leaderstats

    while true do 
        wait(1)
        AfkPoints.Value = AfkPoints.Value + 1
    end -- what the hell is up with this LOL???? this would give points EVEN if the player isnt afk. fix your shit.

    local Rebirth = Instance.new("IntValue")
    Rebirth.Name = "Rebirth"
    Rebirth.Value = 0
    Rebirth.Parent = leaderstats

end)

local Boxes = game.Workspace.ValueChanger:WaitForChild("Point")
local coins = Boxes:WaitForChild("Time") -- Make sure theres a instance named "TIME" bro.
-- whats up with the naming anyways? Coins -> Time???? weird.

for _, Point in pairs(coins:GetChildren()) do
    Point.Touched:Connect(function(otherPart)
        local humanoid = otherPart.Parent:FindFirstChild("Humanoid")
        local player = game.Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(otherPart.Parent)
        local touched = Boxes:FindFirstChild("Touched") -- Boxes.Touched:FindFirstChild would hit you with an error.
        
        if humanoid and player and touched and touched == false then
            
            touched.Value = true
            
            player.leaderstats.Time.Value += 10
            
            Boxes.Transparency = 0.5
            
        end
        
    end)
end   

did you use ai for this?

[inland karma]

yo

whats popping

[quasi birch]

Nah

[final kestrel]

this guy is confusing me

can you like

[quasi birch]

Not at all

[final kestrel]

help him instead

[quasi birch]

[final kestrel]

im genuienly

so CONFUSED

😭

[inland karma]

is that a server script?

[final kestrel]

im assuming it is

depends on him

hes using local touched = Point.Touched:FindFirstChild("Touched") though

LMAO

😭

[inland karma]

wtf

thats not even valid

thats cowshit

[final kestrel]

exactly

😭

[inland karma]

OP u here?

OP?

[quasi birch]

Yeah basically it has the players stats for server like each second = +1 and then if i touch that part it will give me 10+

[quasi birch]

Yeah

[inland karma]

use this script instead

omg...

[sour tinsel]

** You are now Level 7! **

[quasi birch]

I told ya my boolValue is named touched

[inland karma]

game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(player)
    local leaderstats = Instance.new("Folder", player)
    leaderstats.Name = "leaderstats"

    local time = Instance.new("IntValue", leaderstats)
    time.Name = "Time"
    time.Value = 0

    local rebirth = Instance.new("IntValue", leaderstats)
    rebirth.Name = "Rebirth"
    rebirth.Value = 0

    task.spawn(function()
        while player.Parent do
            task.wait(1)
            time.Value += 1
        end
    end)
end)

local coins = game.Workspace:WaitForChild("ValueChanger"):WaitForChild("Point"):WaitForChild("Time")

for _, point in pairs(coins:GetChildren()) do
    local touchedFlag = Instance.new("BoolValue", point)
    touchedFlag.Name = "Touched"
    touchedFlag.Value = false

    point.Touched:Connect(function(hit)
        local char = hit.Parent
        local player = game.Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(char)
        local humanoid = char and char:FindFirstChild("Humanoid")

        if player and humanoid and not touchedFlag.Value then
            touchedFlag.Value = true

            local stat = player:FindFirstChild("leaderstats") and player.leaderstats:FindFirstChild("Time")
            if stat then
                stat.Value += 10
            end

            point.Transparency = 0.5

            task.delay(3, function()
                touchedFlag.Value = false
                point.Transparency = 0
            end)
        end
    end)
end

[final kestrel]

spoonfeeding him atp

😭

[inland karma]

OP, just copy and paste

problem solved

[quasi birch]

thanks but can you explain to me what i did wrong in my code please ?

[final kestrel]

• Trying to Find a Nonexistent Instance

• local touched = Point.Touched:FindFirstChild("Touched") is not valid

[celest junco]

Do u understand the use of find first child

[quasi birch]

And it didnt worked it still says Infinite Yield possible on 'Workspace.ValueChanger.Point:WaitForChild("Time")

[final kestrel]

• AFKPoints gives out Values even if not afk

[quasi birch]

Oh it doesnt call the bool value, so i had to create an instance on it right ?

[quasi birch]

Ikik its just the name dw

[celest junco]

I haven’t seen the code but

Look in your workspace

Is Time a child of Point

Time is a child of leaderstats

Right

[quasi birch]

Yeah one of its currency

[celest junco]

Do you know what findfirstchild does

[quasi birch]

It basically find the first thing in the Folder or in the item right ? And WaitForChild finds it between multiple things ?

[celest junco]

Yes

First instance of that name

So is time even a child of Point

In your workspace

[quasi birch]

Nah time is in leaderstats Folder

Not in workspace

I created the leaderstats folder higher in the code

[celest junco]

Are you even using coins

Why is that the reference to coins

Just change it to leaderstats:FindFirstChild(‘Time’)

[quasi birch]

Where should i put it ?

[celest junco]

Do u understand a single thing about your code

[quasi birch]

I got it i think wait

[quasi birch]

Ok so that error didnt showed up with that since i edited the place of end) so i can take leaderstat thing but now i got An error with the GetChildren

[celest junco]

Send it

Well yeah

Who even wrote this

There can’t be any children of an intvalue

[quasi birch]

Sorry i cant edit it with the

lua```

game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(player)
local leaderstats = Instance.new("Folder", player)
leaderstats.Name = "leaderstats"

local time = Instance.new("IntValue", leaderstats)
time.Name = "Time"
time.Value = 0

local rebirth = Instance.new("IntValue", leaderstats)
rebirth.Name = "Rebirth"
rebirth.Value = 0

task.spawn(function()
    while player.Parent do
        task.wait(1)
        time.Value += 1
    end
end)

local coins = leaderstats:FindFirstChild(time)
local part = game.Workspace.ValueChanger.Point
for _, coins in pairs(coins:GetChildren()) do
local touchedFlag = Instance.new("BoolValue", part)

part.Touched:Connect(function(hit)
    local char = hit.Parent
    local player = game.Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(char)
    local humanoid = char and char:FindFirstChild("Humanoid")

    if player and humanoid and not touchedFlag.Value then
        touchedFlag.Value = true

        local stat = player:FindFirstChild("leaderstats") and player.leaderstats:FindFirstChild("Time")

            part.Transparency = 0
        end)
    end
end)

end
end)

[quasi birch]

Here is the code

[celest junco]

I told u

[quasi birch]

So instead of GetChildren i just putted for part, coins in pairs (leaderstats, coins) do but doesnt work, did i did it wrong ?

heres what it shows me now

argument #1 expects a string, but Instance was passed - Serveur - ValueIncrement:21
18:18:40.011 Stack Begin - Studio
18:18:40.011 Script 'Workspace.ValueChanger.Point.ValueIncrement', Line 21 - Studio - ValueIncrement:21
18:18:40.011 Stack End - Studio
18:18:40.011 Workspace.ValueChanger.Point.ValueIncrement:23: invalid argument #1 to 'pairs' (table expected, got Instance)

[quasi birch]

U still there ?

[warped oasis]

sup whatchu need help with i dont want to reade the text that are here u mind telling me??

[quasi birch]

So basically i want a part named Point, to increment my Value named time, that is in leaderstats and i want each time i step with humanoid on that part it gives me 10 Points

Hold on imma send you my script

[warped oasis]

ok send script

@quasi birch

[quasi birch]

Pc crashed relauching it hold on

[warped oasis]

oh ok

[quasi birch]

            end)
        end
    end)
end
end)

[quasi birch]

Here

[warped oasis]

ok so i found a few issues

[warped oasis]

i can send u the working script

[quasi birch]

I would appreciate and could you also explain whats the issues in the code too please

[warped oasis]

yea sure

leaderstats must be parented to the player (leaderstats.Parent = player), not just created without a proper parent.

When finding the Time value, use a string key: leaderstats:FindFirstChild("Time"), not the variable time.

The loop for part, coins in pairs(coins, coins) do makes no sense since you only work with one part — no loop is needed.

The debounce (touchedFlag) should be unique per player, not shared on the part, otherwise multiple players stepping on the part might not get points properly.

Creating touchedFlag as a BoolValue inside the part is unnecessary and less clean — better to use a local debounce variable inside the script.

the issues

lemme update the script

[warped oasis]

here script

game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(player)
local leaderstats = Instance.new("Folder")
leaderstats.Name = "leaderstats"
leaderstats.Parent = player

local time = Instance.new("IntValue")
time.Name = "Time"
time.Value = 0
time.Parent = leaderstats

local rebirth = Instance.new("IntValue")
rebirth.Name = "Rebirth"
rebirth.Value = 0
rebirth.Parent = leaderstats

local part = workspace.ValueChanger.Point
local debounce = false

part.Touched:Connect(function(hit)
    local char = hit.Parent
    local player = game.Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(char)
    local humanoid = char and char:FindFirstChild("Humanoid")
    if player and humanoid and not debounce then
        debounce = true
        local stat = player:FindFirstChild("leaderstats") and player.leaderstats:FindFirstChild("Time")
        if stat then
            stat.Value += 10
        end
        task.delay(3, function()
            debounce = false
        end)
    end
end)

end)

@quasi birch does it work

[quasi birch]

Ill try

[warped oasis]

ok

[quasi birch]

Alr it works thanks

So much complications

[warped oasis]

no problem bro hehe dm me or ping me if u need more help

[quasi birch]

Alr i send u a msg and if in case i need help ill ask you

And thanks again 🫡

[celest junco]

hello

just letting u know

[warped oasis]

?

[celest junco]

when u create the instance, the second argument is the parent

local leaderstats = Instance.new(“Folder”, player)

this makes the parent of the instance player

[warped oasis]

Yeah, exactly! You’re totally right — when you do Instance.new("Folder", player), it automatically sets player as the parent. I just rewrote it explicitly with .Parent = player for clarity, but both ways work fine

[gentle grove]

Is that ai response

[warped oasis]

wym bro

[final kestrel]

No way ts gotta be an ai response

How do u type "—"

LOL

• _ —

9h wait

I see

[warped oasis]

What the hell u mean How do u type "—"
