How do I make this script make it so you can only have a certain amount of "Gold". For example I want it so you can only have 10 gold and nothing above that. while true do script.Parent.Text = "Gold: " .. math.floor(script.Parent.Parent.Parent.Parent.Parent.leaderstats.Gold.Value) wait(0) end

math.min(MaxGold, CurrentGols) Pretty much the equivalent of: if Current > Max then return max else return Current end

A conditional statement would allow you to accomplish this. Presumably, you could create an algorithm such as this: function Check_Gold() Gold = 1; Maximum_Number = 10; if(Gold < Maximum_Num)then Gold = Gold + 1; Increases the value if the variable "Gold" is lesser than the limit; else print("You have reached the gold limitation!"); Event:connect(Check_Gold);

So do I replace my script with that? Because I just did that and it does not work. Where do I insert that script at? Thanks for helping me btw.

"Hop off my block anon" Yes, it appears that I did not recognize the explicit flaw of defining the variables within the scope of the function. Oh well, I suppose that you can handle the onward explanation.

I hope you can't get a job because you try to talk like your smart. Smart people are lazy And lazy people use built-ins
