Some help with awarding points if someone doesnt die for 5 seconds?
I have been trying to use this code in my game to award player points if someone does not die for 5 seconds, but it wont work.
-- declare service
local PointsService = Game:GetService("PointsService")
-- Bind function to player added event
game.Players.PlayerAdded:connect(function(player)
-- Get total number of points this game has already awarded to the player
local universeBalance = PointsService:GetGamePointBalance(player.userId)
-- Check if the player has died. If true, don't award points for 10 seconds. If false, award points every 5 seconds
while true do
game:GetService('Players').PlayerAdded:connect(function(player)
player.CharacterAdded:connect(function(character)
if character:WaitForChild("Humanoid").Died:connect(function()
end)
then
wait(10)
else
wait(5)
PointsService:AwardPoints(player.userId, 1)
end
end)
-- Bind function to when points are successfully awarded
PointsService.PointsAwarded:connect(function(userId, userBalanceinUni, userBalance)
end)
I would love it if your could help. Thanks!

This script does not make much sense. You should not have more than one PlayerAdded function. And if character:WaitForChild("Humanoid").Died:connect(function() end) will always evaluate true, because it returns a connection object. I'm not quite sure what you wanted it to do, but you are better off checking humanoid health.
local PointsService = game:GetService("PointsService")
game.Players.PlayerAdded:connect(function(player)
--set variables
local id = player.UserId
local universeBalance = PointsService:GetGamePointBalance(id)
local char = player.Character or player.CharacterAdded:wait()
local humanoid = char:WaitForChild('Humanoid')
player.CharacterAdded:connect(function(character)
--reset the variables
char, humanoid = character, character:WaitForChild('Humanoid')
end)
--simple loop
while wait(5) do
if humanoid.Health > 0 then
PointsService:AwardPoints(id, 1)
else
wait(5)
end
end
end)
