im making a button simulator and im trying to figure out this rebirth part

[candid lintel]

if you know any button simulators (like BS:ED) i need help on how to make rebirths work

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

    local c = Instance.new("NumberValue", ls)
    c.Name = "Cash"
    c.Value = 0.00
    
    local mult = Instance.new("NumberValue", ls)
    mult.Name = "Multiplier"
    mult.Value = 0.00
    
    local re = Instance.new("NumberValue", ls)
    re.Name = "Rebirths"
    re.Value = 0.00
    
    while task.wait(1) do
        sfxearn:Play()
    
        local baseCash = 1

        local totalCash = baseCash

        if mult.Value > 0 and re.Value > 0 then
            totalCash = baseCash * mult.Value * re.Value
        end

        c.Value += totalCash
    end
    
    ls.Parent = plr
end)

ok

uh

for global stats

its better to use a modulescript instead of NumberValues

then for a rebirth simply increae rebirth amount and set everything else's value to 0

[candid lintel]

i have a module script for the upgrades

and wdym to use a module script

[narrow slate]

use a module script as a global table

use that table to handle valyes

it makes it easier to save AND takes less time to add more values

[candid lintel]

idk how to do that

[narrow slate]

local module {
—values here, examples
currency1 = 0
currency2 = 0
}

return module

** You are now Level 16! **

[narrow slate]

then, get that module in a different script to use it

currencies = require(game.ModuleScript) —NOT like this, do it like wherever you put the model

THEN in every script you required it, you can do
currencies.currency1 += 10

and that should increase that value across all scripts (assuming its being run on the server)

you can also use it like
workspace.Part.SurfaceGui.TextLabel.Text = “Cash: “..currencies.currency1

this will be annoying to switch to but 100% a good idea if this game gets published

[candid lintel]

ahh

[candid lintel]

i am trying to publish

[candid lintel]

wait so the module right do i put the values directly to the module table or do i do some oop stuff that i gotta learn

i have these

[narrow slate]

yea def use the module instead

[candid lintel]

whcih

[narrow slate]

wdym which

[candid lintel]

do i make a new module

[narrow slate]

yes

[candid lintel]

and what do i put in that module

[narrow slate]

this

[candid lintel]

hmm

[candid lintel]

i have this function toh

tho

[candid lintel]

ahh i dont get it

[narrow slate]

nonono this is right

except add a comma after every variable

[candid lintel]

ahh ok

one final question to end this 5 day thread 😭

how do i connect them together and where

[narrow slate]

to reference them make sure you require the module obv

but then you can type module.currencyname = whatevervalueuwant

[candid lintel]

main script or stat script

[narrow slate]

you van do that in every script

except the module

[candid lintel]

oh...

what do i replace

[candid lintel]

or do i keep it the same

ok last question fr lmao

[narrow slate]

instead of “game.ReplicatedStorage.Stats.CurrencyName” you can do “module.CurrencyName

think of the module as just

a table

with thise values in there

but its across all scripts

[candid lintel]

oh i dont have any stats on rep storage

i just put them directly to the leaderstats

is that a bad thing

[narrow slate]

because of this u dont need stats in the rep anymore

[candid lintel]

what now

[bold parrot]

** You are now Level 8! **

[narrow slate]

u can remove the stats folder

all u need is the module

[candid lintel]

folder or script?

wait what

[narrow slate]

and whenever u gotta make a new currency just add it to the module

[candid lintel]

so do i scrap this

[narrow slate]

yea no need for that whole script anymore

[candid lintel]

what i do now

[narrow slate]

well

now u can make the rest of the game

but all the values should be easier to reference and make more of

[candid lintel]

wait wait then how do i make it so that the player earns money now

every second lets say

[narrow slate]

module = require(game.ReplicatedStorage.ModuleScript)
while task.wait(1) do
module.Cash += 1
end

[candid lintel]

OHHHHHHHH

omg

i get it

[narrow slate]

and for your original question

just add rebirths by money but divided by like five or something

then set money to zero

[candid lintel]

why divide

[narrow slate]

and reset multi aswell

well u want to get less rebirths then you have cash

oh wait

i forgot button simulators are different

[candid lintel]

yeah

[narrow slate]

nvm just all u need to know is
increase rebirths by amount if they have enough cash
set cash and multi to zero after

[candid lintel]

so like how to multiply the multiplier

nvm

[candid lintel]

ill try to adapt that with my upgrade and gui module

ok tysm

ill be bumping this thread until i get it eventually

[narrow slate]

should be pretty similar to values in usage

[candid lintel]

bump

[candid lintel]

oh what about leaderstats how do i add them

omg this is going too logn

[candid lintel]

mind if u can dm instead

[candid lintel]

hows it looking

[narrow slate]

looks good

but wdym leaderstats

[candid lintel]

it dont show up in the leaderstats

[narrow slate]

WHAT is leaderstats??

[candid lintel]

wdym

[narrow slate]

oh

its a folder

[candid lintel]

yes

[narrow slate]

are you expecting more than 1 player in a server?

[candid lintel]

yes

[candid lintel]

like u mean a game server?

[narrow slate]

yes

okay

uhhh

yea i gotta be honest man i dont know what to do if theres more than 1 player

oh

i got an idea

instead of having a folder to keep stats

make the module like this:

{"player1name" = {"cash" = 10, "multi" = 1}, "player2name" = {"cash" = 500, "multi" = 3}, "player3name" = {"cash" = 10000, "multi" = 200} }

where you make a table in the module under the name of the player

[candid lintel]

i think that would take too long

[narrow slate]

when a player joins add their name as a table

[narrow slate]

well yeah, but, theres legit no other way

other than what you had before

which probably isnt the greatest idea

pretty sure it would make datasaving near impossible

[candid lintel]

ahhhhhh i forgot about data saving

i think ill restart

ill just keep the guis and other stuff

and redo every script

[narrow slate]

its not a bad idea to restart

ive restarted a game twice before i got to release a third one and that ones really faulty anyway

[candid lintel]

how is that game now
