How do you increase the leaderboard?
I have made a leaderboard, but I don't know how to increase it. I want to make it so when you collide with a part, it destroys the part and gives you the value this is my code so far: script in serverscriptservice
local function onPlayerJoin(player)
local leaderstats = Instance.new("Folder")
leaderstats.Name = "leaderstats"
leaderstats.Parent = player
local gold = Instance.new("IntValue")
gold.Name = "Gold"
gold.Value = 0
gold.Parent = leaderstats
end
game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(onPlayerJoin)
script inside of part:
script.parent.Touched:connect(function(Player)
script.parent:destroy()
Player.leaderstats.Gold.Value = Player.leaderstats.Gold.Value + 1
end)
when I run it, it says leaderstats is not a valid member of Part What do I do?

Ok, first of all, the parameter for the Touched event is the object that hit it, not the player you'd have to check if the thing that touched it has a humanoid, and if it does, then it's either an npc or a player's character. Now, you have to check if it's an actual player, so you use Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter() to get the actual player.
local reward = 20
script.Parent.Touched:Connect(function(hitObject)
local humanoid = hitObject.Parent:FindFirstChild("Humanoid")
if humanoid then
local player = game.Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(hitObject.Parent)
if player then
if player:FindFirstChild("leaderstats") then
player.leaderstats.Gold.Value = player.leaderstats.Gold.Value + reward
end
end
end
script.Parent:Destroy()
end)
Also, :connect, and :destroy() are deprecated

remove is deprecated, destroy is not. :Destroy() is the correct usage. DinozCreates 1070 — 5y

@blockmask, you have a typo on line 3, it should be script.Parent, not script.parent saSlol2436 716 — 5y
