How to award a badge to the player through an item?
So I have a script that is placed in a gear inside ReplicatedStorage, when the player has it in their inventory, they should receive a badge, however, it does not work. Help please.
if (script.Parent.Parent.Parent:FindFirstChild("Humanoid")) then
print "lol"
p = script.Parent.Parent.Parent
if (p ~= nil) then
print("Awarding BadgeID: " ..script.Parent.BadgeID.Value .. " to UserID: " .. p.userId)
local b = game:GetService("BadgeService")
b:AwardBadge(p.userId, script.Parent.BadgeID.Value)
end
end
Thanks.

- Use better variable names such as "BadgeService" instead of "b"
- You don't need to compare something to nil because Lua conditionals have a value called "truthy". if it's true then it's true and truthy If it's false or nil then it's false if it's anything else it's truthy
- Award the badge consecutively with the system that gives them the gear in the first place. (4. Player.userId is deprecated use Player.UserId)
local marketplaceService = game:GetService("MarketplaceService")
local badgeService = game:GetService("BadgeService")
--code that gives tool here
if not marketplaceService:PlayerOwnsAsset(plr, script.Parent.BadgeID.Value) then
badgeService:AwardBadge(plr.UserId, script.Parent.BadgeID.Value)
end
