[SOLVED IT MYSELF]: Gamepass not adding player money value in ServerStorage?
Hi, so I'm struggling on how to give money to players that own the game pass. Recognizing the game pass owners is working fine, it's the intended features that comes with it that not working. The only way to change it's cash, is by going through ServerStorage, PlayerMoney folder, and the number value which is named after the Player, and setting that value. The code inside the ownsGamepass is what I'm stuck on.
local player = game.Players.LocalPlayer
local ownsGamepass = game:GetService("MarketplaceService"):UserOwnsGamePassAsync(player.UserId,9078528)
if ownsGamepass then
game.ServerStorage.PlayerMoney.LocalPlayer.Value = game.ServerStorage.PlayerMoney.LocalPlayer.Value + 100000
end
Leaderstats script
local cash = false
if Settings.LeaderboardSettings.ShowCurrency then
cash = Instance.new("StringValue")
cash.Name = Settings.CurrencyName
cash.Value = 0
end
local PlayerStats = game.ServerStorage.PlayerMoney:FindFirstChild(newPlayer.Name)
if PlayerStats ~= nil then
if cash then
local Short = Settings.LeaderboardSettings.ShowShortCurrency
PlayerStats.Changed:connect(function()
if (Short) then
cash.Value = Settings:ConvertShort(PlayerStats.Value)
else
cash.Value = Settings:ConvertComma(PlayerStats.Value)
end
end)
end
end

note that the async functions like userownspass need to be in a protected function (aka. pcall(function()), if its not, it will probably give out errors, so instead of ownsgamepass, try:
local success,errormsg = pcall(function()
game:GetService("MarketplaceService"):UserOwnsGamePassAsync(player.UserId,youridhere)
end)
if success then
-- Your code here
else
print("There was an error "..errormsg)
end)
and your making the leaderstats script too complex, just use the default leaderstats script
-- Inside serverscript
game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(player)
local leaderstats = Instance.new("Folder",player)
leaderstats.Name = "leaderstats"
local money = Instance.new("IntValue",leaderstats)
money.Name = "Money"
money.Value = 0
end)
None of your guys answer work, so I solved it myself. The problem is simply put, I can't use a LocalScript change the value, as it can't access the server storage. I just need to put the gamepass script in a regular script and locate it in the ServerScriptService. I cleaned up the script a bit, but it resulted exactly what I wanted.
local mps = game:GetService("MarketplaceService")
local gamepass_id = 9078554 -- Game pass ID
game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(player)
if mps:UserOwnsGamePassAsync(player.UserId, gamepass_id) then
game.ServerStorage.PlayerMoney:FindFirstChild(player.Name).Value = game.ServerStorage.PlayerMoney:FindFirstChild(player.Name).Value + 500000
end
end)
