[SOLVED] leaderstats isn't a valid member of Player?
Hello guys, i'm developing my first game and i'm with a trouble: I've created the Lvl up system in a LocalScript:
local Players = game:GetService("Players")
local Player = Players.LocalPlayer
if Player then
local leaderstats = Instance.new("IntValue", Player)
leaderstats.Name = "leaderstats"
local EXP = Instance.new("NumberValue", leaderstats)
EXP.Name = "EXP"
EXP.Value = 0
local Level = Instance.new("NumberValue", leaderstats)
Level.Name = "Level"
EXP.Changed:connect(function()
if EXP.Value >= Level.Value*100 then
EXP.Value = EXP.Value - Level.Value*100
Level.Value = Level.Value+1
end
end)
end
And for test I put a Part in the workspace, with this (normal)script:
d = true
script.Parent.Touched:Connect(function(hit)
local humanoid = hit.Parent:FindFirstChild("Humanoid")
if d == true and humanoid ~= nil then
local Player = game.Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(hit.Parent)
local leaderstats = Player:WaitForChild("leaderstats")
local EXP = leaderstats.EXP
if d == true then
d = false
EXP.Value = EXP.Value+100
wait(1)
d = true
end
end
end)
But when I touch the part, it says "09:15:09.157 - leaderstats is not a valid member of Player" Why this is happening and how can i fix? I guess that's because i'm trying to change a Local value with a Normal script, but i need these values to be in the Local so i can change it with a Gui latter.

Problem
The problem is: You are creating leaderstats with client. not with server, if create by client the server cant detect the leaderstats
Correction
You need to create leaderstats script in ServerScript, not in LocalScript. if is local script only create for the client. not for the server. For this you need to detect a player added, get the player and start a function, for this use: Players.PlayerAdded
What Players.PlayerAdded makes?
- This simple detect if has added a new player on game, this only works in ServerScript
Example:
--> ServerScript(ServerScriptService)
game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(plr)
print("The player " .. plr.Name .. " joined to game!")
end)
Here is fixed script:
--> ServerScript(ServerScriptService)
local Players = game:GetService("Players")
Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(Player)
-- Do not use Instance.new(class, parent). this is deprecated. use local i = Instance.new(class) i.Parent = Player.
local leaderstats = Instance.new("IntValue")
leaderstats.Name = "leaderstats"
leaderstats.Parent = Player
local EXP = Instance.new("NumberValue")
EXP.Name = "EXP"
EXP.Value = 0
EXP.Parent = leaderstats
local Level = Instance.new("NumberValue")
Level.Name = "Level"
Level.Parent = leaderstats
-- :connect is deprecated. use :Connect
EXP.Changed:Connect(function()
if EXP.Value >= Level.Value*100 then
EXP.Value = EXP.Value - Level.Value*100
Level.Value = Level.Value+1
end
end)
end)
Hope it helped, errors? tell-me on comments.
