I'm making a script to make a "bank" so that the contents of an intvalue inside a player's backpack can be stored inside an intvalue inside a brick. The actual script that makes this happen in inside a textbutton, so the structure of the whole thing is like 

bankbox
 |-Gui Frame
	|-Depositamt (a textbox)
	|- Depositbutton (a button)
		|- script

player
|- Backpack
	|-Money (intvalue)

The code is below

function OnMouseClick()
	local player = script.Parent.Parent.Parent.Parent.Parent
	local playeracct = script.Parent.Parent.Parent:FindFirstChild(player.Name)
	if playeracct == nil then
		playeracct = Instance.new("IntValue")
		playeracct.Parent = script.Parent.Parent.Parent
		playeracct.Name = player.Name
		playeracct.Value = 0
	end
	playeracct.Value = playeracct.Value + tonumber(script.Parent.Parent.Depositamt.Text)
	player.Backpack.Monies.Value = player.Backpack.Monies.Value - tonumber(script.Parent.Parent.Depositamt.Text)
end
script.Parent.MouseButton1Click:connect(OnMouseClick)

When I test this script, it doesn't have any errors that display on the console, but nothing happens to my "money" intvalue in my player. I'm at a loss on how to explain that, and would appreciate another person's opinion.

I recommend using a local script instead of having to use player = script.parent.parent...etc you can use local player = Game.Players.LocalPlayer
