LocalPlayer's ID is the same, but still failing?[SOLVED]
I am making an Imagebutton that when clicked on, it checks to see if your ID matches the localplayer's ID. if so, it will tell you that you cant battle yourself.
It keeps giving me the failed output. Anyone know the reason why? both "id" and "localplayerid" match when tested.
local id = script.Parent.Parent.PlayerID.Value
local text = script.Parent.Battletext
local localplayerid = game.Players.LocalPlayer.UserId
script.Parent.MouseButton1Click:connect(function()
print(id)
print(localplayerid)
if id == localplayerid then
print("cant battle yourself!")
else
print("failed")
end
end)

Is the PlayerID value a StringValue? NumberValue? IntValue? awesomeipod 607 — 5y

I just changed it to IntValue, it's now solved. I tried using PlayerID to store other data, when I don't need it. BloxRoxe 109 — 5y

The property UserId is a int64 and PlayerID.Value a StringValue, so they never going to be the same. Try to convert the UserId to a string, like this:
local id = script.Parent.Parent.PlayerID.Value
local text = script.Parent.Battletext
local localplayerid = game.Players.LocalPlayer.UserId
script.Parent.MouseButton1Click:connect(function()
print(id)
print(localplayerid)
if id.__tostring() == localplayerid then
print("cant battle yourself!")
else
print("failed")
end
end)
