How would I get this value to apply to only one person?

local a = 0
local equip = 0
CGUI = script.Parent.Parent.Classes.Backing

CGUI.Swordsman.MouseButton1Click:connect(function()
    equip = a + 1
    CGUI.Value.Value = equip
    CGUI.Swordsman.TL.Text = "Selected"
        for _,Player in pairs(game.Players:GetPlayers()) do
        if Player:FindFirstChild("leaderstats") then
            Player.leaderstats.value.Value = script.Parent.Backing.Value.Value
        end
    end
end)

When someone presses a gui button it gives the person a leaderstat value of 1, but when someone presses the button everybody gets a leaderstat value of 1. How would I only apply the value to the person who clicked the button?

When this button is clicked, do you want the leaderstat value of the player who clicked it to go up, or just that of a random player? duckwit 1404 — 9y

The easiest way to do it is to add a bool value to keep track if you gave it to one person.

local a = 0
local equip = 0
CGUI = script.Parent.Parent.Classes.Backing

local GaveToOnePerson = false

CGUI.Swordsman.MouseButton1Click:connect(function()
    if GaveToOnePerson == false then
        GaveToOnePerson = true
        equip = a + 1
        CGUI.Value.Value = equip
        CGUI.Swordsman.TL.Text = "Selected"
        for _,Player in pairs(game.Players:GetPlayers()) do
            if Player:FindFirstChild("leaderstats") then
                Player.leaderstats.value.Value = script.Parent.Backing.Value.Value
            end
        end
    end
end)

Try adding the player's name within the loop so it should look like this:

local a = 0
local equip = 0
CGUI = script.Parent.Parent.Classes.Backing

CGUI.Swordsman.MouseButton1Click:connect(function()
    equip = a + 1
    CGUI.Value.Value = equip
    CGUI.Swordsman.TL.Text = "Selected"
        for _,Player in pairs(game.Players:GetPlayers()) do
        if Player:FindFirstChild("leaderstats") and Player.Name = "" -- Put the player's name here
 then
            Player.leaderstats.value.Value = script.Parent.Backing.Value.Value
        end
    end
end)

This will find the Player's leaderstats AND find the Player's name.
