MaxHealth Changer based on IntValue?
What i'm trying to do is make a script that reads the leaderstat "Health" and when it changes it updates the maxhealth of that player. (It also needs to be able to make it so they keep the max health even after death.) I am also going to be looking into the data store to save the IntValue and load it when a player leaves/joins.
I have been looking around the wiki and I really haven't had any luck.
I was trying to do a localscript that's placed within the StarerGUI... Here is the script..
stat = "Health"
game.Players.PlayerAdded:connect(function(player)
player.CharacterAdded:connect(function(character)
local p = game.Players.LocalPlayer
character.Humanoid.MaxHealth = p.leaderstats:FindFirstChild(stat)
end)
end)
What it currently does is only gets the stat, I added in a few prints and it only got the stat = "Hleath"

Well, the script you have will detect NEW players coming in, but not your player.
Try this:
player = game.Players.LocalPlayer -- Your player
char = player.Character
stat = player.leaderstats.Health
char.Humanoid.MaxHealth = stat.Value -- This will load it every time your character resets
stat.Changed:connect(function() -- Triggers when (stat) changes.
char.Humanoid.MaxHealth = stat.Value
end)
I wouldn't use a LocalScript, I'd put a Script in ServerScriptService with the following code-
local Players = Game:GetService("Players")
Players.PlayerAdded:connect(function(plr) -- when a player joins
local health = plr:WaitForChild("leaderstats"):WaitForChild("Health") -- wait for leaderstat 'Health' to load
plr.CharacterAdded:connect(function(char) -- when that player respawns
char:WaitForChild("Humanoid").MaxHealth = health.Value -- set the max health to their leaderstat 'Health' value
end)
health.Changed:connect(function(h) -- when their leaderstat 'Health' changes
if plr.Character then -- if the character exists at that moment
plr.Character:FindFirstChild("Humanoid").MaxHealth = h -- set the humanoid's health to the leaderstat 'Health'
end
end)
end)
