I have been trying to figure this out for a solid hour... How to fix this?

I have been trying to make an obby and, i have been trying to make a script so each time a player touches the checkpoint it raises the stagevalue and each time the stagevalue is increased it will spawn it to that checkpoint. So if stagevalue is 1 then the player spawns at the first level checkpoint.

And here is my script:

stagevalue = 0

workspace.Stages.Stage1.Touched:Connect(function()

	stagevalue = stagevalue + 1 

end)

if stagevalue == 1 then

print("it works")

end

I touch the first checkpoint so that it prints out "it works". But nothing... This is not the whole script, this is the place of the script where the problem is located.

In my workspace i have a folder called Stages and in it a folder called Stage1 that contains the checkpoint part.

Hi, it doesn't print out "It works" because, it only checks it once the player joins, add the check part inside of your .Touched function, which will make it work.

local StageValue = 0;

workspace.Stages.Stage1.Touched:Connect(function(Object)
	StageValue = StageValue + 1
	if StageValue == 1 then
		print("it works")
	end
end)

Try This

local stagevalue = -- put it here
local db = true
script.Parent.Touched:connect(function(hit)
	if hit.Parent:FindFirstChild("Humanoid") ~= nil then
		if db == true then
			db = false
			
			local player = game.Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(hit.Parent)
			
			stagevalue = stagevalue + 1
			
			
			
		end
	end	
end)
