How to check if previously entered?

local Player = script.Parent.Parent.Parent.Parent.Parent.Parent

script.Parent.FocusLost:connect(function(enterPressed)
    if enterPressed and script.Parent.Text == "123" and Player:LoadBoolean("testing") == false then
        Player.Points.Value = Player.Points.Value + 10000
        Player:SaveBoolean("testing", true)

    elseif enterPressed and script.Parent.Text ~= "123" then
        script.Parent.Text = "Incorrect Code"

    elseif enterPressed and script.Parent.Text == "123" and Player:LoadBoolean("testing") == true then
        script.Parent.Text = "You have already entered Code"
    end
end)

Ok, so I have this and if the player writes something other than 12345 it says Incorrecr code, but when they enter 12345 it dosent give them the points, and if they enter 12345 again it dosent say You have already entered Code. Do I need to change the way the if statements are placed? Inside normal script

EDIT:

  • Spent so much time on this answer too... :'c

Okay. Since you changed the Question, I have to change the Answer.... -Sigh-

I read your code, and I believe the problem is with your use of "if statements". If you replace all the "if"s except the first one with "elseif"s, and remove a few "end"s, I think it SHOULD work, but if it doesn't, don't hate me please. :(

I tried to fix it FOR you, not sure of the outcome...

local Player = game.Players.LocalPlayer

script.Parent.FocusLost:connect(function(enterPressed)
    if enterPressed and script.Parent.Text == "12345" and Player:LoadBoolean("test3") == false then
        Player.Points.Value = Player.Points.Value + 10000
        Player:SaveBoolean("test3", true)

    elseif enterPressed and script.Parent.Text ~= "12345" then
        script.Parent.Text = "Incorrect Code"

    elseif enterPressed and script.Parent.Text == "12345" and Player:LoadBoolean("test3") == true then
        script.Parent.Text = "You have already entered Code"
    end
end)

Well, like LAST time, I hope this helps solve your problem. And you might need a harder code then 12345... Bye. :)

The money saves, etc but i would like a dif code every week, so they can only enter say code 123 once then they have to wait for next week to enter in the next code? Do I just change the saveboolean to be likehasEnteredCode1, then hasEnteredCode2? NinjoOnline 1146 — 10y

I guess you could, or you could make a time system using tick(), but I guess that'd be weird. :P Kratos232 105 — 10y

...You never said it was a LocalScript. Don't use LoadBoolean. Use something like script.Parent.Parent.Parent.Parent.Parent. Basically, Thr script is something like this.... Player>PlayerGui>ScreenGui>Button>LocalScript. Make it not Local, and just use script.Parent.Parent.Parent... until you get the Player. Sorry, forgot about that. :c I'm pathetic...
