Can I use a global variable for my script?
So I have a shop GUI. The problem is that I wonder if I could use a global variable or I could combine two scripts. My case is like that: in the shop GUI I have a button to buy a super power. The super power is activated when I press the q button for example. Should I combine the two scripts or make a global variable? Or should I make something different? And Hou should I lock the super power script so that only after buying it cand be used by pressing q?

Clone the superpower LocalScript into the client's StarterGear and Backpack upon clicking the gui. Have it disabled and enable it upon cloning.
Would look like this:
local plr = game.Players.LocalPlayer;
local super_power = script.Parent:WaitForChild("Superpower1");
script.Parent.MouseButton1Down:Connect(function()
--If they don't already own it
if not plr.StarterGear:FindFirstChild(super_power.Name) then
local c1 = super_power:Clone(); --Clone it
local c2 = super_power:Clone();
c1.Parent = plr.StarterGear; --Into startergear(for respawns)
c2.Parent = plr.Backpack; --Into backpack(for rn)
c1.Disabled = false; --Enable code
c2.Disabled = false;
end
end)
