script.Parent.ClickDetector.MouseClick:connect(function(playerwhi)
playerwhi = playerwhi.Name
game.Players.playerwhi.leaderstats.Money = game.Players.playerwhi.leaderstats.Money + 100
end)
The problem I am having is that I don't know how to access the player when I try to do it it says 11:41:07.089 - playerwhi is not a valid member of Players Also this is not a local script
The script is trying to find the child named playerwhi in Players, to get around this, you have to tell it to find the actual variable, like so:
script.Parent.ClickDetector.MouseClick:connect(function(playerwhi)
playerwhi = playerwhi.Name
game.Players:FindFirstChild(playerwhi).leaderstats.Money = game.Players:FindFirstChild(playerwhi).leaderstats.Money + 100
end)
##Additional Note
From the Roblox Wiki page:
Note: If you have FilteringEnabled set to 'true', this will not fire on the server and only on the client. To avoid this, connect the event on the client and use a RemoteEvent to inform the server about it being clicked.
The best way to do this is to use a local script.
ServerScript
local remoteEvent = game.ReplicatedStorage.RemoteEvent
remoteEvent.OnServerInvoke:connect(function(player)
player.leaderstats.Money = player.leaderstats.Money + 100
end)
LocalScript
local remoteEvent = game.ReplicatedStorage.RemoteEvent
game.Workspace.Part.ClickDetector.MouseClick:connect(function()
remoteEvent:FireServer()
end)
