Well, I am making Leaderstats, and the leaderstats value is an Int Value. But the Int Value has to be equal to the WalkSpeed of a humanoid, But I dont know how to reference a humanoid. fishboy141516 12 — 3y

If it's in a local script, first learn how to get the local player, then the character. Then you can access the humanoid and setup the event to fire whenever the property changes!

There are many ways to reference a humanoid. If you're making a leaderboard script, I assume you have some code that triggers when a player joins the server. From that, you can get the player's character and then their humanoid

Here's a quick example:

game:GetService('Players').PlayerAdded:Connect(function(player)
    local character = player.Character or player.CharacterAdded:Wait()
    local humanoid = character:FindFirstChildOfClass('Humanoid')

    local leaderstats = Instance.new('Folder')
    leaderstats.Name = 'leaderstats'
    leaderstats.Parent = player

    local speed = Instance.new('IntValue')
    speed.Name = 'Speed'
    speed.Parent = leaderstats
    speed.Value = humanoid.WalkSpeed
end)
