Hey guys! I have a script that makes a player drop their candy in this Halloween game I am making. Problem is, it doesnt work on Filtering Enabled servers. Im very new to Filtering Enabled, so if someone could tell me what to do, that'd be great! Thank you!

Here is my script


wait(.5)
--Very inefficient but whatever aaa
script.Parent = script.Parent.Humanoid
local playeer = script.Parent.Parent.Name
local player = game.Players[playeer]

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
--Put in startercharacter
script.Parent.Died:connect(function()
    local i = math.random(1,10) 
    if (player.leaderstats.Candy.Value - i) < 0 then
        i = player.leaderstats.Candy.Value        
    end
    player.leaderstats.Candy.Value = player.leaderstats.Candy.Value - i
    --------------------------------------------------------------------------
    if i ~= 0 then
        repeat
            i = i - 1
            local position = script.Parent.Parent.Torso.CFrame*CFrame.new(math.random(-4,4),8,math.random(-4,4))
            local Candy = game.ServerStorage.Candy:Clone()
            Candy:Clone()
            Candy.Parent = game.Workspace
            Candy.CFrame = position
        until i <= 0
        ----------------------------------------------------
        for i,v in pairs (script.Parent.Parent:GetChildren()) do
            if v:IsA("BasePart") or v:IsA("Accessory") then
                v:Destroy()
            end
        end
    end
end)

Think about it. Client changes do not get replicated to the server. RemoteEvents are for transferring data to client and server and server to client. hiimgoodpack 2009 — 6y

In order for your script to function correctly, you would put it in ServerScriptStorage and retrieve the player variable from a PlayerAdded event.

game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(player) --PlayerAdded event
    player.CharacterAdded:Connect(function(char) --CharacterAdded event
        char:WaitForChild("Humanoid").Died:Connect(function()
            local i = math.random(1,10) 
            if (player.leaderstats.Candy.Value - i) < 0 then
                i = player.leaderstats.Candy.Value        
            end
            player.leaderstats.Candy.Value = player.leaderstats.Candy.Value - i
            if i ~= 0 then
                local tor = char:WaitForChild("Torso")
                local pos = tor.CFrame*CFrame.new(math.random(-4,4),8,math.random(-4,4))
                repeat
                    i = i - 1
                    local Candy = game.ServerStorage.Candy:Clone()
                    Candy:Clone()
                    Candy.Parent = game.Workspace
                    Candy.CFrame = pos
                until i <= 0
                for i,v in pairs (char:GetChildren()) do
                    if v:IsA("BasePart") or v:IsA("Accessory") then
                        v:Destroy()
                    end
                end
            end
        end)
    end)
end)

Er, doesn't seem to work. It works in studio, but not in actual game. Am I forgetting something? QuantumWaffle 17 — 6y
