Hello, I want to make a clicker game but I have a problem. I want to make a text like to show your currency.

Here's my script.

game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(plr)
        local dp = plr.leaderstats.DP.Value
        while true do
            wait(0.5)
            script.Parent.Text = "Dino Points: "..dp
        end
end)

When I click "Play" nothing happens.The text isn't changing.Can someone help me? The game is FE

We had a lot of conversation, so you've told me that script wasn't working in the client (game). So I will try to do my best.

-- Make sure that this is a Local Script

local Player = game:GetService("Players").LocalPlayer
local leaderstats = Player:WaitForChild("leaderstats")
local Currency = leaderstats:WaitForChild("DP")

while wait() do
    script.Parent.Text = "Dino Points: "..dp.Value
end

-- ^ Hopeful, this will fix your question ^

Try this:

game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(plr)
    local dp = plr.leaderstats.DP
    dp.Changed:Connect(function()
    script.Parent.Text = "Dino Points: "..dp
    end)
end)

Not working :/ NathanielFawkes 9 — 5y

Well, your script would probably work if you've added the .Value after dp. AswormeDorijan111 531 — 5y

I added .Value but is still not working NathanielFawkes 9 — 5y

Is the parent a TextLabel or not? scopetag 0 — 5y
