How exactly do I add to a value?
I'm trying to make a voting mechanic for my game, but when I touch the part that counts the vote, nothing is added to the value and it stays as 0. (This is only a fragment of the code and the local is at the top of the script)
1 | local Button = script.Parent |
2 |
3 | Button.Touched:Connect(function() |
4 | Button.VoteCount.Value = Button.VoteCount.Value + 1 |
5 | end) |
Is the something wrong with the touch function? Before anyone asks, I did try FindFirstChild and this is a server script.

I believe it isn't working because the game is FE. You could use remote events to get this to work.
1 | -- LocalScript in Starter Player scripts |
2 |
3 | local Button = game.Workspace.VotingCentre.Buttons.Button1 |
4 |
5 | Button.Touched:Connect(function() |
6 | game.ReplicatedStorage.RemoteEvent:FireServer() |
7 | end) |
1 | -- Server Script in SererScriptService |
2 |
3 | game.ReplicatedStrorage.RemoteEvent.OnServerEvent:Connect(function() |
4 | Button.VoteCount.Value = Button.VoteCount.Value + 1 |
5 | end) |

You need to check that the hit is player
1 | local Button = script.Parent |
2 |
3 | Button.Touched:Connect(function(hit) --You can get the part that touch here |
4 | if game.Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(hit.Parent) then |
5 | Button.VoteCount.Value = Button.VoteCount.Value + 1 |
6 | end |
7 | end) |
But this will spam the vote count. So try add something to check if the player that hit hasn't been vote before.
I try to add folder.
01 | local Button = script.Parent |
02 |
03 | Button.Touched:Connect(function(hit) --You can get the part that touch here |
04 | if game.Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(hit.Parent) then |
05 | local plr = game.Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(hit.Parent) |
06 | if plr.Character:FindFirstChild("VoteCheck") then |
07 | else |
08 | Button.VoteCount.Value = Button.VoteCount.Value + 1 |
09 | local check = Instance.new("Folder",plr.Character) |
10 | check.Name = "VoteCheck" |
11 | end |
12 | end |
13 | end) |
