Collecting a coin occasionally gives two points?
I know why this is happening I just need to figure out how to make the script disable after its collected without it interfering with the part of the script that deletes the part.
Code:
script.Parent.Touched:connect(function(c)
game.Players.LocalPlayer.leaderstats.VCoins.Value = game.Players.LocalPlayer.leaderstats.VCoins.Value + 1
wait(0)
script.Parent:Destroy()
end)
help please

You need a debounce, debounces make sure that it doesn't play the code twice
http://wiki.roblox.com/index.php?title=Debounce
touched = true
script.Parent.Touched:connect(function(c)
if touched == true then
game.Players.LocalPlayer.leaderstats.VCoins.Value = game.Players.LocalPlayer.leaderstats.VCoins.Value + 1
touched = false
wait(.2)
touched = true
script.Parent:Destroy()
end)

Debounce. Check if the variable is false. If yes, then set it to true. Then award points. This will only execute ONCE.
EDIT:
local debounce = false
event:function()
if debounce ~= true then
debounce = false
-- stuff
end
end

One last thing, could you combine the two pieces of code? Because I dunno where to put the debounce. nap516 87 — 6y

Then learn lua. Too bad I have to keep this comment PG. If you can't do that, i doubt your scripting ability. H4X0MSYT 536 — 6y

@H4X0MSYT You're missing `:Connect()`. Link150 1355 — 6y

@Link150 its not meant to be an entire script.... Just a placeholder for a listener. H4X0MSYT 536 — 6y

@H4X0MSYT Well, it still didn't work even when I put everything in the correct places. nap516 87 — 6y
