I'm not sure why this local variable has an error on it i assigned it a value so whats the problem?
script.Parent.Touched:Connect(function(hit)
local player = game.Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter
local Money = player.leaderstats.Money -- my question,I just want to know whats causing the "local" error it says expected '(' and <string> what does it mean
if hit.Parent == game.Workspace.PartStorage then
wait(0.4)
Money.Value = Money.Value + hit.Value
hit:Destroy()
end
end
end)
You are not using GetPlayerFromCharacter correctly. It is a function and you need to call it passing it the instance to attempt to find the player. If no player is found then nil is returned.
script.Parent.Touched:Connect(function(hit)
local player = game.Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(hit.Parent) -- hit.Parent would be the model
if player then -- check that player is not nil
-- code
end
end)
I hope this helps. Please comment if you have any other questions about this code.
This should work. You aren't getting the player correctly and for that reason you can't get the leaderstats.
local user = game.Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(hit.Parent)
local stats = user:findFirstChild("leaderstats")
if stats ~= nil then
local cash = stats:findFirstChild("Money")
cash.Value = cash.Value + numbervalue
