Why doesn't my number value change when I scripted it to change?

Asked by 4 years ago

My number value doesn't change whenever the script runs through it. The change is at line 38.

local UserInputService = game:GetService("UserInputService")
local doors = game.Workspace.Doors:GetChildren()
local player = game.Players.LocalPlayer
local slow = 0

local function onInputBegan(InputObject, gameProcessedEvent)

I would like to elaborate on what Killerbot72 said, except you can change values from a local script. But if you get the value on the server, it will return something else.

Your issue is that on line 8, you said the following:

local open = v.open.Value

This code returned the current value, not the actual object. By this I mean you were just changing the variable, so when you said this:

open = open + 1

You weren't adding on the value's value. You were adding to number variable that wasn't changing anything else.

The fix is that on line 8, put:

local open = v.open

And then, on line 38, put:

open.Value = open.Value + 1

If you refrenced open anywhere else in the script, make sure you are doing your comparisons using open.Value, not open

Hope this helped!

You can't change values with a local script by itself. So you MUST use remote events

this might help

for example if you wanted to change a value when a player clicks a textbutton you will have to put a RemoteEvent in ReplicatedStorage.

and in the local script inside of the text button you would have to write

script.Parent.MouseButton1Click:Connect(function()

    game.ReplicatedStorage.RemoteEvent:FireServer()


    end)

and then in a server script you would write

game.ReplicatedStorage.RemoteEvent.OnServerEvent:Connect(function(player)
player.leaderstats.Cash.Value = player.leaderstats.Cash.Value +1
end)

Anything in ServerStorage can't be seen by the client Leamir 3138 — 4y
