How do I access userdata within a Tool?
I made a weapon that holds a basedamage value. I also made a skill-system that allows you to spend Points on Stats like Damage, Speed and Health. How can I access the Stats inside the Local Player with a "normal" script inside my weapon? The stats object inside of the player is in ReplicatedStorage and gets assigned to the player once they enter.
local BaseDamage = script.Parent.BaseDamage.Value local AddedDamage = --[[ This is the problem. How do I access the stats of the Player? I tried it with game.Players.PlayerAdded, but I only get the Value "nil" for the Damage value inside of stats, but it should be 300. ]]
As always, thanks in advance!

Tool.Parent will be player's character after Activated is fired. then use game.Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(Tool.Parent) to get player Mr_m12Ck53 105 — 4y

Tool.Activated:Connect(function()
local char = Tool.Parent -- Here is the character
local plr = game.Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(char) -- Here is the player
end)
