How can I change the walk speed of the player?
1 | local LocalPlayer = game.Players.LocalPlayer |
2 | LocalPlayer.Character.WalkSpeed = game.ReplicatedStorage.Points.Value + 3 |
'Attempt to index local 'LocalPlayer' (a nil value)'

I suggest you use a Script, if you are using FilteringEnabled, LocalScripts are not supposed to be doing this. dionant 23 — 6y

ServerScriptService can't access "LocalPlayer", that can only be accessed by LocalScripts gitrog 326 — 6y

I don't know how you want to increase the player's speed, for example it happens when you touch a brick or a key bind. Since you're using a server script, you're trying to access the LocalPlayer, but that's only available through local scripts, not server. Either you can put your original code in a local script, or you can do this:
1 | game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(plr)--This happens whenever a player joins |
2 |
3 | local char = plr.Character or plr.CharacterAdded:Wait()--Gets player's character |
4 | local hum = char.Humanoid |
5 | hum.WalkSpeed = game.ReplicatedStorage.Points.Value + 3 |
6 |
7 | end) |
This code goes in a normal script. Put this script in ServerScriptService. I also noticed you're trying to set the WalkSpeed from the character. It's the character's humanoid that you do this to, not the actual character.

You were using the local as "LocalPlayer"
so it diden't know what to use. , also you need to use a Humanoid
