I made a custom leaderboard, yet it will not work, it says I have no errors, please help



game.Players.PlayerAdded:connect(function(plr)

local stats =game.Players.LocalPlayer.Instance.new("IntValue", plr)

    stats.Name = 'leaderstats'
    stats.Value = 0
local Rank = game.Instance.new("StringValue", stats)

    Rank.name = 'NYP Rank'
    Rank.Value = plr:GetRoleInGroup(2841538)


stats.Parent = plr
Rank.Parent = stats

end)

Fix your formatting. Put the ~ on a new line for it to work. TheDeadlyPanther 2460 — 8y

Here is some fixed code, with explanations:

game.Players.PlayerAdded:connect(function(p)
    local stats = Instance.new("Folder") -- Folder because it is better for organization
    stats.Parent = p
    stats.Name = "leaderstats" -- I missed this, but it is required to be named leaderstats for it to show up

    local rank = Instance.new("StringValue") -- Using the second parameter is less efficient
    rank.Parent = p
    rank.Name = "NYP Rank" -- Lua is case-sensitive
    rank.Value = p:GetRoleInGroup(2841538)

    -- There is no need to set the parents again
end)

Hope I helped!

Ah, I missed one big thing. Let me edit. Remember in Lua, anything that doesn't work, doesn't work for a reason. TheDeadlyPanther 2460 — 8y
