If leaderstats is this high, then change sign text?
So I am making a game, and I want it where if you have more than 49 dollars, the sign will say something if you have less than 49 dollars, it says something different. I made random words for this example, so here it is. The problem is that the sign doesn't change. Thank you!
local Player = game.Players.LocalPlayer
local Stats = Player:WaitForChild("leaderstats")
local Money = Stats:WaitForChild("Johanna")
wait(1)
if Money < 49 then script.Parent.SurfaceGui.SIGN.Text = "Hello!"
else
if Money > 49 then script.Parent.SurfaceGui.SIGN.Text = "Not enough money."
end

I think this is because you need to be accessing the Value property of the Money leaderstat. 123marble 61 — 4y

What I believe you need is to detect is the player's money value has change. For that, I will be using GetPropertyChangedSignal
local Player = game.Players.LocalPlayer
local Stats = Player:WaitForChild("leaderstats")
local Money = Stats:WaitForChild("Johanna")
wait(1)
Money:GetPropertyChangedSignal("Value"):Connect(function() -- Using GetPropertyChangedSignal instead of .Changed to only detect the money value changing since .Changed will always fire when the money's properties has been changed such as it's name.
if Money.Value > 49 then
script.Parent.Parent.SurfaceGui.SIGN.Text = "Not enough money."
else
script.Parent.Parent.SurfaceGui.SIGN.Text = "Hello!"
end
end)
Hope this helps, and remember to accept it if it did! Any errors, report to me and I will fix it asap!

Then you change the value of the money and the event will fire. XviperIink 428 — 4y

Im assuming you a have server script to create the leaderstats when the player has joined, just use a loop to changed to the value every x seconds. XviperIink 428 — 4y
