Hello, I’m having some issues with creating a daily chest using Data Store 2. I went to other posts, but all of them use regular data store and they use :SetAsync() or :GetAsync() which is really throwing me off because I don’t know how to convert that to Data Store 2. The whole idea of os.time() is really confusing as well and when I tried it, it worked… kinda, but the timer didn’t countdown when the player was outside of the game. I don’t have code to show as it’s very messy and I’m just so lost on what to write. If someone could explain what to do or show an example of it using Data Store 2 that would be helpful.
what did you say? it says (post deleted by author) for some reason
I wanted one of the scripts that you found so i can change it so it can be used with Datastore2, and you didnt reply so i thought you wanted someone to make a fully new one so deleted it.
oh no I was showering rq I was just waiting for someone to reply

Here is a script that someone made. It’s not really a script, but it explains what to do. I was confused what he was saying but here it is
local datastore2 -- datastore2 location here
game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(player)
local rewardDataStore = datastore2("DailyReward", player)
-- Check when the player has collected the reward using os.time()
-- I personally forgot how to use datastore2 because I don't work with datastores that much
-- But save the time when the player collected the reward, like a remote event
-- Save it in datastore2 as os.time() when the player collects it
-- I never made daily rewards in my entire life
end)
I meant the daily reward script, i know how to use Datastore2, i was going to change to code so its “compatible” with Datastore2
game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(player)
if timeDataStore:GetAsync(player.UserId.."-Daily") then
goalTime = timeDataStore:GetAsync(player.UserId.."-Daily")
claimed = true
end
spawn(function(timer)
while true do
wait(1)
local difference
if claimed == true then
if goalTime ~= nil then
if os.time() < goalTime then
difference = goalTime - os.time()
local hours = math.floor(difference/3600)
local minutes = math.floor((difference - (hours*3600))/60)
local seconds = ((difference - (hours * 3600)) - (minutes * 60))
if hours < 10 then
hours = 0 .. hours
end
if minutes < 10 then
minutes = 0 .. minutes
end
if seconds < 10 then
seconds = 0 .. seconds
end
script.Parent.Parent.Treasure.Timer.TextLabel.Text = (hours..":"..minutes..":"..seconds)
else
claimed = false
goalTime = nil
timeDataStore:RemoveAsync(player.UserId.."-Daily")
script.Parent.Parent.Treasure.Timer.TextLabel.Text = ("Chest Ready!")
end
end
end
end
end)
end)
script.Parent.Touched:Connect(function(touched)
if touched.Parent:FindFirstChild("Humanoid") then
local player = game.Players:FindFirstChild(touched.Parent.Name)
if db == false then
db = true
if timeDataStore:GetAsync(player.UserId.."-Daily") == nil then
timeDataStore:SetAsync(player.UserId.."-Daily", (os.time() + waitTimeHours * 3600))
goalTime = timeDataStore:GetAsync(player.UserId.."-Daily")
claimed = true
end
wait(5)
db = false
end
end
end)

dont worry abt the touched event
I had made a very efficient code, if you want I can show you ! 
Yeah this code above sucks, its not mine but yes pls show me lol
I changed it, i didnt change the touched event as you said.
local datastore2 -- datastore2 location
local claimed
local goalTime
game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(player)
local rewardDataStore = datastore2("DailyReward", player)
goalTime = rewardDataStore:Get()
claimed = true
if goalTime == 0 then claimed = false end
spawn(function(timer)
while true do
wait(1)
local difference
if claimed == true then
if goalTime ~= nil then
if os.time() < goalTime then
difference = goalTime - os.time()
local hours = math.floor(difference/3600)
local minutes = math.floor((difference - (hours*3600))/60)
local seconds = ((difference - (hours * 3600)) - (minutes * 60))
if hours < 10 then
hours = 0 .. hours
end
if minutes < 10 then
minutes = 0 .. minutes
end
if seconds < 10 then
seconds = 0 .. seconds
end
script.Parent.Parent.Treasure.Timer.TextLabel.Text = (hours..":"..minutes..":"..seconds)
end
end
end
end
end)
end)
script.Parent.Touched:Connect(function(touched)
if touched.Parent:FindFirstChild("Humanoid") then
local player = game.Players:FindFirstChild(touched.Parent.Name)
if db == false then
db = true
if timeDataStore:GetAsync(player.UserId.."-Daily") == nil then
timeDataStore:SetAsync(player.UserId.."-Daily", (os.time() + waitTimeHours * 3600))
goalTime = timeDataStore:GetAsync(player.UserId.."-Daily")
claimed = true
end
wait(5)
db = false
end
end
end)

Is there a way to implement the touched event with Zone +. That’s why I didn’t want to mess with that part
Zone+ like that module? I have it but sadly i didnt have the time to use it so i cant help with that.
yeah it’s basically like .touched but the function is different. For ex: Zone.playerEntered:Connect(function(plr)
print(plr.Name)
end)
Ik about it but not implementing it, if you can give me the “base code” and i need to do the Datastore2 part I would be down.
Wait some time I’m scripting !
It’s good I’ve finish :
local DataStoreService = game:GetService("DataStoreService")
local DataStoreDailyReward = DataStoreService:GetDataStore("DailyReward")
local Players = game.Players
Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(Player)
if DataStoreDailyReward:GetAsync(Player.UserId) == nil then
print("Can receive daily reward")
DataStoreDailyReward:SetAsync(Player.UserId, os.time())
elseif os.difftime(DataStoreDailyReward:GetAsync(Player.UserId), os.time()) >= 60*60*24 then
print("Can receive daily reward")
DataStoreDailyReward:SetAsync(Player.UserId, os.time())
else
print("Can't receive daily reward")
end
end)
I hope that was helpful !

Oh sorry, I made a mistake, so I can’t help you sorry ! 
Have a nice day !
I was thinking smth like this
DailyChestZone.playerEntered:Connect(function(plr)
local rewardDataStore = DS2("DailyRewardTimer", plr)
if rewardDataStore:Get() == 0 then
workspace.Buildings.Spawn.ChestCircle.RewardHolder.SurfaceGui.TextLabel.Text = "Collect Reward!"
end
end)
