How to fix "leaderstats" not a member of player?

Asked 404 views1 answers

I think I typed this right. But i keep getting a annoying error in the output. "leaderstats is not a valid member of player" even though it is a valid member of player. 

local playerstats = game.Players.LocalPlayer.leaderstats.Coins
local playerstats2 = game.Players.LocalPlayer.leaderstats.Clicks
local aneeded = 1000

function exchange()
	if playerstats2.Value >= aneeded then playerstats2.Value = playerstats2.Value - aneeded and playerstats.Value == playerstats.Value + 1
	end
end

script.Parent.MouseButton1Click:Connect(exchange)

maybe a game.Players.LocalPlayer.leaderstats:WaitForChild("Coins") Before the rest of the code may work

That sometimes happen because the script is replicated some miliseconds before the leaderstats and then it does not find it, the way you can fix it is using :WaitForChild()

local playerstats = game.Players.LocalPlayer:WaitForChild("leaderstats").Coins

does not need to do that for the second variable since it will only execute the rest when leaderstats was detected.
