Upon touching the cookie, why does it not give a point?
Please encode Lua code in the Lua block code tag (look for the Lua icon in the editor).
As the title says, when I touch the cookie it does not give a point. If you're wondering what the purpose of the "HasCookie1" datastore, it is to prevent people from rejoining to pick up the cookie again & again awarding more points.
01 | local DataStoreService = game:GetService("DataStoreService") |
02 | local HasCookie1 = DataStoreService:GetDataStore("HasCookie1") |
03 | amnt = 1 -- amount of cookie |
04 | function onTouched(part) |
05 | local h = part.Parent:findFirstChild("Humanoid") |
06 | if (h~=nil) then |
07 | local thisplr = game.Players:findFirstChild(h.Parent.Name) |
08 | local player = game.Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(h.Parent) |
09 | local playerKey = "id_" .. player.UserId |
10 | if (thisplr~=nil) then |
11 | local stats = thisplr:findFirstChild("leaderstats") |
12 | if (stats~=nil) then |
13 | local score = stats:findFirstChild("Cookies") |
14 | if (score~=nil) and DataStoreService:HasCookie1(player.UserId, false) then |
15 | score.Value = score.Value + amnt |

hello fellow scripter! I heard u needed help; i fixed it for you - and made it a lot more stable. your old code used a global function; which are not stable - i recommend using a local function more often. anyways - here's your fixed code!
01 | local DataStoreService = game:GetService("DataStoreService") |
02 | local HasCookie1 = DataStoreService:GetDataStore("HasCookie1") |
03 |
04 | cookiesToGive = 1 -- amount of cookie |
05 |
06 | local function giveCookies(hit) |
07 | local char = hit.Parent |
08 | local humanoid = char:FindFirstChildWhichIsA("Humanoid") |
09 |
10 | if humanoid then |
11 | local player = game.Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(char) |
12 |
13 | if player then |
14 | local hasCookie = HasCookie1:GetAsync("id_" .. player.UserId) |
15 | if hasCookie == false then |
