Alright, So I've tried other stackoverflows, But I can't get it to work.
Heres the code
script.Parent.MouseButton1Click:Connect(function()
local plr = game.StarterGui.ScreenGui.title.Frame.plr
print(plr.Text)
local gp = game:GetService("ReplicatedStorage"):WaitForChild("GetPlr")
gp:FireServer(plr.Text)
end);
the frame.Plr part is the textbox
When I do plr.Text it doesn't get the current input.
I hope yall have good anwsers
And I hope you have a good day :D
UI elements that are placed in StarterGui act as a template. They are copied into each player's PlayerGui when their Character spawns in the world.
Your issue is that a player has put text into their copy of the ui, which is located in the PlayerGui, and you are trying to pull that text out of the template in StarterGui.
So in your LocalScript, try updating the path to the text box to point at the player's PlayerGui :
local PlayerService = game:GetService("Players")
local ReplicatedStorage = game:GetService("ReplicatedStorage")
script.Parent.MouseButton1Click:Connect(function()
local pg = PlayerService.LocalPlayer.PlayerGui
local plr = pg.ScreenGui.title.Frame.plr
print(plr.Text)
local gp = ReplicatedStorage.GetPlr
gp:FireServer(plr.Text)
end)

I have a system in my game where when a player steps on a checkpoint, a Stage value in the leaderboard will go up, and then that value is saved to that player's userId.
I want there to be a button that resets that value back to 0, and this is the code I tried for it.
local textButton = script.Parent
local Players = game:GetService("Players")
textButton.MouseButton1Up:Connect(function()
local player = game.Players.LocalPlayer
local stage = Players:WaitForChild(player):WaitForChild("leaderstats").Stage
if stage.Value > 1 then
stage.Value = 1
end
end)
I've tried debugging it by putting print commands in different places to see where the code gets, and when I try to run print(stage) it does not show anything.
LocalScripts cannot change the value on the server. To change a value once a button is clicked, RemoteEvents should be used.
There is a page documenting about them here: https://create.roblox.com/docs/scripting/networking/remote-events-and-functions
To use a RemoteEvent, first you need to put it in a place that is replicated across the server and the client. A good example of this would be to put it in ReplicatedStorage. After that, you need to set up a script that listens for the .OnServerEvent event of the RemoteEvent. To do this, you need to connect a function. As seen in your script, you already know how to do this. So I will get straight to the point.
On the server, set up a script that listens for .OnServerEvent. Next, on the client, edit your script to fire the client instead of trying to set the value. Go back to the server script, and set the value there. The event also passes the Player object, so you can utilize that to actually reset the value.
TLDR;
LocalScript inside of your TextButton:
local textButton = script.Parent
local Players = game:GetService("Players")
local RemoteEvent = 'RemoteEvent location'
textButton.MouseButton1Up:Connect(function()
RemoteEvent:FireServer()
end)
Server Script in anywhere, preferably ServerScriptService:
RemoteEvent.OnServerEvent:Connect(function(player)
local Players = game:GetService("Players")
local stage = Players:WaitForChild(player):WaitForChild("leaderstats").Stage
if stage.Value > 1 then
stage.Value = 1
end
end)
Good luck!
So I decided to make a jump boost gamepass in roblox but when I test and I have my gamepass it doesn't work.
here is my code
local MarketplaceService = game:GetService("MarketplaceService")
local Players = game:GetService("Players")
local PlayerUserID = Players.LocalPlayer.UserId
print(PlayerUserID)
Players.LocalPlayer.CharacterAdded:Connect(function(char)
print(MarketplaceService:UserOwnsGamePassAsync(PlayerUserID, 21723718))
if MarketplaceService:UserOwnsGamePassAsync(PlayerUserID, 21723718) then
char.Humanoid.UseJumpPower = true
char.Humanoid.JumpPower = 100
end
end)
it is a server script on ServerScriptService
I cant see any output that comes from the script.
You cannot use LocalPlayer in a Server Script. You will have to get the player via other methods.
Check out the Roblox gamepass guide.
Your server script is targeting an object that doesn't exist. game.Players.LocalPlayer is only defined in localscripts.
To get around this, use Players.PlayerAdded
Use this code instead
local MarketplaceService = game:GetService("MarketplaceService")
local Players = game:GetService("Players")
Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(plr)
plr.CharacterAdded:Connect(function(char)
if MarketplaceService:UserOwnsGamePassAsync(PlayerUserID, 21723718) then
char.Humanoid.UseJumpPower = true
char.Humanoid.JumpPower = 100
end
end)
end)
I've been trying to make a sword fight game on Roblox studio. I've made a shop Gui so you can click the text button to buy the sword. It works well, You click it checks your kills and if you have enough you get the weapon. In this case, it's 0 kills. But when you take out the sword you cant use it. I've done my research and I believe that's because it's been cloned locally and not globally. Is this the case and if so how do I fix it?
The script in the Text Button:
local player = game.Players.LocalPlayer
script.Parent.MouseButton1Click:Connect(function()
if player.leaderstats.Kills.Value >= 0 then
local clonar = game.ServerStorage.ClassicSword:Clone()
clonar.Parent = player.Backpack
end
end)
Thanks in advance!
When work needs to be performed on the server (as opposed to locally on the client), you can use RemoteEvents to communicate across the client-server boundary.
So first, you'll need to create a RemoteEvent in a shared location, like ReplicatedStorage.
Next, update your client-side LocalScript to fire the RemoteEvent :
local player = game.Players.LocalPlayer
local buyEvent = game.ReplicatedStorage.RemoteEvent
script.Parent.MouseButton1Click:Connect( function()
buyEvent:FireServer()
end)
Finally, you need to create a Script in the Workspace or ServerScriptService that listens for that RemoteEvent and performs the work of giving the player the item :
local buyEvent = game.ReplicatedStorage.RemoteEvent
buyEvent.OnServerEvent:Connect( function(player)
if player.leaderstats.Kills.Value >= 0 then
local clonar = game.ServerStorage.ClassicSword:Clone()
clonar.Parent = player.Backpack
end
end)
My code: https://justpaste.it/87evk
local original = game:GetService("ReplicatedStorage"):FindFirstChild("CloneSmoke")
local tool = script.Parent
local copy = original:Clone()
tool.Activated:Connect(function()
print("Running...")
local sound = script.Parent.Sound
copy.Parent = script.Parent.Handle
sound:Play()
wait(3)
tool:Destroy()
local plr = game.Players.LocalPlayer
local weapon = game.ReplicatedStorage.Jutsus.Momoshiki["Momoshikis Sword"]
local w2 = weapon:Clone()
w2.Parent = plr.Backpack
end)
Idk what i have to do here to get the Player and give him a Weapon.I tried much but i dont get the right Soloution.
It were nice wenn you help me
First off, make sure this is in a LocalScript
Also change local original = game:GetService("ReplicatedStorage"):FindFirstChild("CloneSmoke") to local original = game:GetService("ReplicatedStorage"):WaitForChild("CloneSmoke") This is because the script loads faster than items in the game, so chances are, the sword hasn't loaded into the game by the time the script runs; the script won't work if it doesn't find the object you are trying to reference.
So I have tried many variations of leaderstats scripts. Here is one in which should work just fine to my knowledge..... any thoughts on this? leaderstats gui will not display, but the script functions as I can tell through playing the game in studio to test and i notice under player it creates the folder and int value etc.
function showLeaderstats(player)
local leaderstats = Instance.new("Folder",player)
leaderstats.Name = "leaderstats"
leaderstats.Parent = player
local Cash = Instance.new("IntValue",leaderstats)
Cash.Name = "Cash"
Cash.Parent = leaderstats
end
game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(showLeaderstats)
It works fine for me. Make sure the leaderboard isn't minimized, the code is in a script and not a local script, the script is in ServerScriptService or the workspace.
Hey sorry to see that no one responded. You should try:
instead of a folder do this:
local leaderstats = Instance.new("IntValue")
--after that, you can assign it's parent to:
leaderstats.Parent = stats
Let me know if this worked!
