How do I increase a player's score when they kill something?
Hello, I am having trouble figuring out a way to increase a value in a script in the player's ScreenGui. What I need to do is detect who the player is who dealt the lethal blow to the enemy (or even better, whoever dealt the most damage) and then increase their money value by an amount, but I really know how to detect if the enemy died or who killed it. Thanks.
EDIT: I'm going to post the code that I have for the player's balance of money.
local Players = game:GetService("Players")
local ThePlayer = nil
function onPlayerAdded(player)
ThePlayer = player
local Coins = Instance.new("IntValue")
Coins.Name = "Coins"
Coins.Value = 166
Coins.Parent = script
if ThePlayer.PlayerGui.ScreenGui ~= nil then
ThePlayer.PlayerGui.ScreenGui.CoinAmount.Text = Coins.Value
end
end
--When a player joins, call the onPlayerAdded function
Players.PlayerAdded:connect(onPlayerAdded)
--Call onPlayerAdded for each player already in the game
for _,player in pairs(Players:GetPlayers()) do
onPlayerAdded(player)
end
while true do
script.Coins.Value = script.Coins.Value + 1
ThePlayer.PlayerGui.ScreenGui.CoinAmount.Text = script.Coins.Value
game.ServerStorage.CoinGet:Play()
wait(1)
end
For testing purposes, the amount of coins is increased by one every second.

That's the problem, I don't have a script for this because I don't know how to do it, which is why I am asking. bludud1234 40 — 6y

game.Players.PlayerAdded:connect(function(player)
local folder = Instance.new("Folder",player)
folder.Name = "leaderstats"
local currency1 = Instance.new("IntValue",folder)
currency1.Name = "Cash"
player.CharacterAdded:connect(function(character)
character:WaitForChild("Humanoid").Died:connect(function()
local tag = character.Humanoid:FindFirstChild("creator")
if tag ~= nil then
if tag.Value ~= nil then
currency1.Value = currency1.Value + 10 --This is the reward after the player died.
end
end
end)
end)
end)

No, I meant when a player kills an npc such as a zombie or something, but this looks like it is related to a player dying. bludud1234 40 — 6y

Just edit the script to be compatible with a npc, if you still can't do that, I guess I can whip up a script real quick. AyeJude 41 — 6y
