How do you add Player Points? I've heard of it but never used it. How can you give player points to people playing your game or buying a shirt form your shop or stuff. Also, is it possible to give yourself player points?
This code here automatically gives the player playerpoints when joining a game.
-- declare service local PointsService = Game:GetService("PointsService") -- Bind function to player added event game.Players.PlayerAdded:connect(function(player) -- Get total number of points the game has available local pointsToAward = PointsService:GetAwardablePoints() -- Get total number of points this game has already awarded to the player local universeBalance = PointsService:GetGamePointBalance(player.userId) -- Check if the game has points to award and if the player hasn't gotten any points yet. If both are true, then give the player a point. if ( pointsToAward > 0 and universeBalance == 0) then PointsService:AwardPoints(player.userId, 1) end end) -- Bind function to when points are successfully awarded PointsService.PointsAwarded:connect(function(userId, userBalanceinUni, userBalance) -- Show message indicating that a player has gotten points local message = Instance.new('Message', game.Workspace) message.Text = "Point awarded to " .. userId .. ". This player now has " .. userBalance .. " points total!" wait(5) message:Destroy() end)
Also, I think you can give points to yourself but A. I am unsure B. That's not really the point of them...
