I'm making a script that can redeem codes that gives in-game items. How do I fix this <eof> error?
local box = script.Parent.Parent:WaitForChild('TextBox')
local button = script.Parent
local code = 'freegun'
local tries = 0
local maxtries = 999999999999999999
button.MouseButton1Click:connect(function()
end)
if box.Text == code then
button.Text = 'Code accepted'
script.Parent.MouseButton1Click:connect(function()
end)
end
local tool = script.Parent.Tool:Clone()
tool.Parent = p.Backpack
else
button.Text = 'Incorrect password'
tries = tries + 1
end
end)
Error: Expected <eof>, got 'else'
The error is on 'else', I'm not sure whether I have too many 'ends' or not enough 'ends'.

It actually meant you placed else in the wrong place, you use else in a if statement. For example; If I'm blue then blah blah blah and adding else means if I'm anything other then blue then blah blah blah. You ended your if statement so it didn't work. Try this code I edited;
local box = script.Parent.Parent:WaitForChild('TextBox')
local button = script.Parent
local code = "freegun"
local tries = 0
local maxtries = 99999999
local player = game.Players.LocalPlayer -- I think this is a local script if not then delete this
button.MouseButton1Down:connect(function()
if box.Text == code then
wait()
box.Text = "Code Accepted"
local tool = script.Parent:WaitForChild("Tool"):Clone()
tool.Parent = player.Backpack --If top line "player" is deleted then delete this too and change
else
wait()
button.Text = "Incorrect Code"
tries = tries + 1
end
end)
