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)
Thanks, and happy thanksgiving o3o -Rich
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!

It still didn't work.. I think my game just sucks, xD
Ah, I missed one big thing. Let me edit. Remember in Lua, anything that doesn't work, doesn't work for a reason.
Nvm, I just rescripted it and I saw the error I made, gg, thanks!

Fix your formatting. Put the ~ on a new line for it to work.
Sorry, mb, gg
Why is this a local script?
It's not a local script.
