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
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'!
and accept the answer, so we both get rep
Thanks got mixed with python
It does not work
oooh, on leaderstats, change 'local leaderstats = Lplayer.leaderstats.Points' to 'local leaderstats = Lplayer.leaderstats.Points.Value'
Can you edit the script?

But wouldn't it be "Lplayer.leaderstats.Points.Value" ?
It still doesn't work
Try this one I made a mistake while typing
