hi, im a bad scripter and i seen a youtube tutorial about datastores that was made now 4 years, my brother helped me with my script but it still don’t work, my script for Getting data:
function HiddenAddons:GetFromValues(plr,key)
if DSS:GetRequestBudgetForRequestType(Enum.DataStoreRequestType.GetAsync) > 0 then
local d = DSS:GetDataStore(key..'__'..plr.UserId):GetAsync(plr.UserId)
for i,v in next,d do
print(i.." = "..v.." (G)")
end
if d[1] == nil then
return table.create(1)
elseif d[1] ~= nil then
return d
end
end
end
the script to set data:
function HiddenAddons:SetToValues(plr,key,value)
AllDNNS[key..'__'..plr.UserId] = value
wait(1)
for i,v in pairs(AllDNNS) do
warn(i.." = "..v)
end
if DSS:GetRequestBudgetForRequestType(Enum.DataStoreRequestType.UpdateAsync) > 0 then
DSS:GetDataStore(key..'__'..plr.UserId):SetAsync(plr.UserId,AllDNNS)
wait(1)
local d = DSS:GetDataStore(key..'__'..plr.UserId):GetAsync(plr.UserId)
for i, v in next, d do -- this works
warn('(T): '..i..' = '..v) -- this works
end
end
end
What exactly isn’t working? Do you get any errors? How often are you saving the data because you could be hitting the data store limits(are you saving when the player leaves or when their stats change ect)? Are you running this from a script or a LocalScript? Do you have studio API services enabled if you are attempting to save in studio?
There isn’t anything that I can immediately see wrong with this script that could be causing your script not to fully work. You could be hitting your data store limits. Other than that the only things that I can see wrong is that you aren’t properly using data stores:
First off you shouldn’t give each player their own data store from the :GetDataStore method as shown below. The way you are doing it will cause you to hit your data store limits very quickly because each player could end up having multiple data stores:
Instead you should only use one data store from the :GetDataStore method so that everyone can use it instead of making one for each player. In most cases it is better practice to save the players data under one big table to limit the amount of data store calls you do. Here is an example of what I mean:
local DataStoreService = game:GetService("DataStoreService")
local DataStore = DataStoreService:GetDataStore("Data") -- DataStore for everyone
DataStore:GetAsync(Player.UserId) -- Gets a table of the players data
local Data = { -- Table of the players data
Coins = 20,
Level = 40,
XP = 200
}
DataStore:SetAsync(Player.UserId, Data) -- Sets the players data
The next you you should do is use pcall to catch and track your errors. Data store calls occasionally error at no fault of the developer so it is recommended you wrap all your data store calls in pcalls. Here is a little example:
local Success, Error = pcall(function()
DataStore:SetAsync(Player.UserId, {})
end)
if not Success then
print("Data loaded")
else -- Data did not load correctly
print(Error) -- Prints the error
-- Do something to try to get the data again
end
to respond at all u say: it don’t error but it still don’t return nothing, i save the values of the player when he leave and another after 11 seconds (ik i dhoulkd put 6) and i don’t hit the limints.a ModuleScript, it is enabled
hi, i changed my saving script but still don’t work
function HiddenAddons:SetToValues(plr,key,value)
AllDNNS[plr.UserId..'-'..key] = value,table.getn(AllDNNS)
if DSS:GetRequestBudgetForRequestType(Enum.DataStoreRequestType.UpdateAsync) > 0 then
warn('a')
DSS:GetDataStore(ALLDNS_Save):SetAsync(plr.UserId,AllDNNS)
warn('a2')
warn(AllDNNS[1]) -- nil instead of 100,1
else
wait(10)
if AllDNNS == nil then
AllDNNS = {}
end
DSS:GetDataStore(ALLDNS_Save):SetAsync(plr.UserId,AllDNNS)
end
end
