Help with Bool Values? [UNANSWERED]

Asked by 9 years ago

So I am making a Tycoon and I am adding perks that adds stats like Cash, Health, and Speed but I am having a problem. My Cash Dev product script works fine that isn't the problem its the one that adds speed. So when it is bought it gives you the selected amount of speed and when you die it is gone which is how I wanted it. But when I rejoined I quickly noticed that you get all of the speed that you payed for back which is practically really frustrating considering I CANT fix it at all.People have told me to use Bool value but in that aspect I am very lost and dont get it. Another guy said that the game is thinking that they are buying it again so it gives them the speed again and to add a Bool value. I ask them how I would do this but they explain it and I dont get it. It seems to short and not well said on how to do it... I am in deer need for a solution! Please help if you can!

Here is my script for the speed just in case it is needed:

local developerProduct = 20433249 local speedInc = 15

Game:GetService("MarketplaceService").ProcessReceipt = function(receipt)
    if receipt.ProductId == developerProduct then 
        for i,v in pairs(game.Players:GetPlayers()) do 
            if v.userId == receipt.PlayerId then 
                if v.Character and v.Character:FindFirstChild("Humanoid") then
                    v.Character.Humanoid.WalkSpeed = v.Character.Humanoid.WalkSpeed + speedInc
                end
            end
        end
    end
end

The block of code on its own shouldn't be causing your issue. Can you post your PlayerAdded function? That's where I would think to look for the error first. adark 5487 — 9y

A player added function is basically a function that triggers when a player is added. So for example, one way of doing a player added function(The way I prefer) is like this:

game.Players.PlayerAdded:connect(function(player)
    --do stuff
end)

The "player" in line one of the code, is referring to the player that has been added, and no other player.

"--do stuff" is referring to the code that you would execute AFTER the player has joined. For example, creating a number value in the the player's instance in game.Players could be done like this:

game.Players.PlayerAdded:connect(function(player) --Listens for a player to join the server
    local x = Instance.new("NumberValue") --Creates a number value instance
    x.Parent = player --Parents the number value to the player that just joined
    x.Value = 100 --Sets the number values value to 100
end) --Ends the block of code
