How to make a part give a "point" to a leaderboard value? (SOLVED)

I have a points/money system in my leaderboard, and I would like to know how to make a part award the player that touches it to gain a "point" in the leaderboard.

How would I do this?

Thank you.

script.Parent.Touched:connect(function(hit)
    if game.Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(hit.Parent) then
        player = game.Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(hit.Parent)
        player:FindFirstChild("leaderstats").Points.Value = player:FindFirstChild("leaderstats").Points.Value + 1
    end
end)

I fixed it, you're welcome!

Want it to wait before it can be used again? Here

script.Parent.Touched:connect(function(hit)
    if game.Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(hit.Parent) then
        player = game.Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(hit.Parent)
        player:FindFirstChild("leaderstats").Points.Value = player:FindFirstChild("leaderstats").Points.Value + 1
    script.Disabled = true
    wait(5) --Change 5 to anything
    script.Disabled = false
    end
end)

Actually- I do.. is there anyway I could limit the amount of points given to one? Is it a wait function? DrCylonide 158 — 10y

Yes. You have to use wait. Though also if you want it to stop it if it is above a certain number then the script Disables fireboltofdeath 635 — 10y

Just put it before the last end then it will wait until it can be used again. fireboltofdeath 635 — 10y

It didn't work. I tried "wait(4)" before the last end, after the last end.. the part kept rewarding points. DrCylonide 158 — 10y

The problem with that is that once the script is disabled, other players will not be able to gain points(unless that is what he wants). There is a better way. Lacryma 548 — 10y

I know. You have also use the Local Camera where you'll have to wait until the Local Player can see the brick again. fireboltofdeath 635 — 10y
