Why is my Points GUI not working (Points in leaderstats = textlabel) ?
I was trying to do a GUI like in a simulator, the ones where it shows how many coins you have. Here is my script:
local cashHolder = game.StarterGui.StatGUI.Points
local Lplayer = game.Players.LocalPlayer
local leaderstats = Lplayer.leaderstats.Points
while true then do
local cashHolder.Text = Lplayer.leaderstats
wait(0.5)
end
Can someone please tell me why it is not working? Thank you!

You shouldn't have local when changing text at line 6 and wrong defining it should be like this
cashHolder.Text = leaderstats.Value
and and you are defining cashholder from startergui, switch first line with
local cashHolder = game.Players.LocalPlayer.PlayerGui:WaitForChild("StatGUI").Points

But wouldn't it be "Lplayer.leaderstats.Points.Value" ? 6zk8 95 — 4y

local cashHolder = game.StarterGui.StatGUI.Points
local Lplayer = game.Players.LocalPlayer
local leaderstats = Lplayer.leaderstats.Points.Value
while true do
cashHolder.Text = Lplayer.leaderstats
wait(0.5)
end
The issue: cashHolder is already defined, so don't use local for editing somethings property or interacting with defined variables, don't worry, it's a common mistake. And also it's 'while true do', not 'while true then do'!
