Well, You at least took the effort to do some research.. You're going to have to make use of Variables, Math, Events, Functions, and Connections.
Usually people use local scripts for tools but if we want to make an actual change to a value in leaderstats then I recommend the use of a server script.
We're going to make a tool that add 1 to a leaderstats value then the tool disappears.
01 | -- Server Script -- |
02 |
03 | -- Variables |
04 |
05 | local tool = script.Parent -- defining tool |
06 |
07 | -- Events/Connections |
08 |
09 | tool.Activated:Connect(function() -- tool "Activated" Event |
10 |
11 | local character = tool.Parent -- defining character |
12 | local players = game:GetService("Players") -- defining players |
13 | local player = players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(character) -- defining player |
14 | local leaderstats = player.leaderstats -- defining leaderstats |
15 | local currency = leaderstats.Money -- defining currency |
16 | local addition = 1 -- defining addition |
17 |
18 | currency.Value = currency.Value + addition -- Adding 1 to Currency |
19 |
20 | end) |
Of course.. This script may error in certain circumstances.. But that's for the better. So you can observe, problem-solve, and understand the errors.

Good stuff but couldn’t exploiters can edit the script and change the currency increment way higher? 123nabilben123 499 — 5y

No. It's a Server Script. Exploiters can't read/edit Server Script. And Exploiter's can't read/edit scripts anymore(at least for now). ryan32t 306 — 5y

Does it have to delete the tool after? THELFCMAN 9 — 5y
