How do you disable a script just for the player that activated it?
So I added some money to my game but when a player touches it, it repeats the script and gives more money than it should. However, I created a code that makes the script only work once but when another player touches the money they don't get any.
I'm wondering if there's a way to disable the script locally and not get any extra money but for others to be able to get the money too.
Heres my code:
WaitTime = 999999
Amount = 25
function onTouched(part)
local h = part.Parent:findFirstChild("Humanoid")
if (h~=nil) then
local thisplr = game.Players:FindFirstChild(h.Parent.Name)
if (thisplr~=nil) then
local stats = thisplr:findFirstChild("leaderstats")
if (stats~=nil) then
local Score = stats:findFirstChild("cash")
if (Score~=nil) then
Score.Value = Score.Value + Amount
end
end
end
end
end
script.Parent.Touched:Connect(onTouched)

Yeap there is a way in my case I used a table to insert their names when they get it and used a find function to see if they were in that table if not then it would give them money, otherwise it would print "ALREADYGOTIT".
WaitTime = 999999
Amount = 25
local alreadygotit = {}
function onTouched(part)
local h = part.Parent:findFirstChild("Humanoid")
if (h~=nil) then
local thisplr = game.Players:FindFirstChild(h.Parent.Name)
if (thisplr~=nil) then
local CHECKER = table.find(alreadygotit, thisplr.Name)
if CHECKER == nil then
local stats = thisplr:findFirstChild("leaderstats")
if (stats~=nil) then
local Score = stats:findFirstChild("cash")
if (Score~=nil) then
table.insert(alreadygotit, thisplr.Name)
Score.Value = Score.Value + Amount
end
end
else
print("ALREADY GOT IT")
end
end
end
end
script.Parent.Touched:Connect(onTouched)
