I’m trying to create a datastore for player’s leaderstats in my simulator game.
When I run the game I get an error code (Attempt to connect failed: Passed value is not a function) and there is a red line under the word “save” which is punched into the onShutdown local function to save the player’s data.
Are you somehow redefining “save” somewhere else in your code?
Try using ctrl + f to search.
No, it’s only in those three spots I showed.
Move your mouse on the highlighted line. What does it say?
In your second screenshot, save() looks like is indented. Can you zoom out please?
Try this or check if you’re missing an end to see if it works
Players.PlayerRemoving:Connect(function(player)
save(player)
end)
Your function is defined either inside another function, or inside a do end block
It is out of scope for the PlayerRemoving() event to use.
Please move it to the global space.
If you’re confused, here’s a tutorial on what this means:
(This is not for lua, but is still relevant!)
Why are your indentations so inconsistant?
Try and make them more consistant so you can see where you’re missing an “end” more easily.
OHHH Thank you so much. I just had to rearrange my indentations, this helped a lot. I’m very new to scripting and I didn’t realize that mattered. Thanks!
