How can I make a server script access a player's PlayerScripts?
I have a local script in the StarterPlayerScripts that contains int values. I want to modify these int values from a server script and when I tested, modifying them only worked in a local test not online. So how do I get a server script to get to a player's PlayerScripts folder?
i.e
- local script has int values of things like 'speed' and 'top speed'
- player touches a part in game to boost speed
- script looks for the values in the player's playerscripts
- value is there in local test but not there in online test
- script doesn't work online

you can't, put the LocalScript somewhere else theCJarmy7 1293 — 8y

What if I move the int values somewhere the server can access them but make so that they are only for the player playing? What place would be appropriate? alibix123 175 — 8y

Don't
If you need to move something to PlayerScripts, a good idea might be to stick it in StarterPlayerScripts and then make the script run in the mean-time by cloning it into the PlayerGui. It's not conventional, but neither is what you're trying to do.
