01 | --Top of script |
02 | local datastore = game:GetService("DataStoreService"):GetGlobalDataStore() |
03 |
04 | --In OnChatted event: |
05 |
06 | --'name' (of target player) and 'amount' should be defined at this point (in chat you suggested you were editing an "admin" style script so I hope you can do this part) |
07 |
08 | --We want to convert 'name' to 'userId' because names can change |
09 | local success, userId = pcall(function() return game.Players:GetUserIdFromNameAsync(name) end) |
10 | if not success then return end --target user does not exist |
11 | --DataStore |
12 | datastore:IncrementAsync(tostring(userId), amount) |
13 |
14 | --If you wanted to use PlayerPoints, you'd use the following instead of the datastores: |
15 | game:GetService("PointsService"):AwardPoints(userId, amount) |
