Can you send me how your code looks after the change?

#25

Try this as well:

local DataStoreService = game:GetService("DataStoreService")
local SaveCashDataStore = DataStoreService:GetDataStore("SaveCashDataStore")

game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(Player)
	--Cash
	local Leaderstats = Instance.new("Folder")
	Leaderstats.Name = "leaderstats"
	Leaderstats.Parent = Player
	local Cash = Instance.new("IntValue")
	Cash.Name = "Cash"
	Cash.Value = 0
	Cash.Parent = Leaderstats
	--Cash
	
	--Load previous data
	local Data
	local Success, Error = pcall(function()
		Data = SaveCashDataStore:GetAsync(tostring(Player.UserId))
	end)
	
	--Setting what will be saved for this instance it's the CASH!
	if Success then
		print("Sucessfully loaded data")
		Cash.Value = Data
	else
		print("There was an error loading the data")
		warn(Error)
	end
end)

game.Players.PlayerRemoving:Connect(function(Player)
	local Success, Error = pcall(function()
		SaveCashDataStore:SetAsync(tostring(Player.UserId), Player.leaderstats.Cash.Value)
	end)
	if Success then
		print("Sucessfully saved data")
	else
		print("There was an error saving data")
		warn(Error)
	end
end)

Wait I fixed it… wait. So I reverted back to my code then I added a variable named Data and put that in. It printed successfully saved data in the output but my data didn’t save.

game.Players.PlayerRemoving:Connect(function(Player)
	local Data = Player.leaderstats.Cash.Value
	local Success, Error = pcall(function()
		SaveCashDataStore:SetAsync(Player.UserId, Data)
	end)
	if Success then
		print("Successfully saved data")
	else
		print("There was an error saving the data")
		warn(Error)
	end
end)

Edited it. Copy, paste, and try again.

#28

??? Which one??? ADDING CHARACTRERS

#29

Edited which post?? ADDING CHARACTERS

#30

That’s because you never set the Cash Value to Data when you loaded it in the Players.PlayerAdded event.

Huh?? What do you mean ADDING CHARACTESR

#32

I made it do PLayersRemoving… What do u mean

#33

Try this:

local DataStoreService = game:GetService("DataStoreService")
local SaveCashDataStore = DataStoreService:GetDataStore("SaveCashDataStore")

game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(Player)
	--Cash
	local Leaderstats = Instance.new("Folder")
	Leaderstats.Name = "leaderstats"
	Leaderstats.Parent = Player
	local Cash = Instance.new("IntValue")
	Cash.Name = "Cash"
	Cash.Value = 0
	Cash.Parent = Leaderstats
	--Cash
	
	--Load previous data
	local Data
	local Success, Error = pcall(function()
		Data = SaveCashDataStore:GetAsync(tostring(Player.UserId))
	end)
	
	--Setting what will be saved for this instance it's the CASH!
	if Success then
		print("Sucessfully loaded data")
		Cash.Value = Data
	else
		print("There was an error loading the data")
		warn(Error)
	end
end)

game.Players.PlayerRemoving:Connect(function(Player)
	local Data = Player.leaderstats.Cash.Value
	local Success, Error = pcall(function()
		SaveCashDataStore:SetAsync(tostring(Player.UserId), Data)
	end)
	if Success then
		print("Sucessfully saved data")
	else
		print("There was an error saving data")
		warn(Error)
	end
end)
#34

Change is in this code:

	local Data
	local Success, Error = pcall(function()
		Data = SaveCashDataStore:GetAsync(tostring(Player.UserId))
	end)
	
	--Setting what will be saved for this instance it's the CASH!
	if Success then
		print("Sucessfully loaded data")
		Cash.Value = Data
	else
		print("There was an error loading the data")
		warn(Error)
	end
#35

This should be

player.leaderstats.Cash.Value

This is in the Player Removing event.

I watched Dev King and it works now. Here’s my code!

local DataStoreService = game:GetService("DataStoreService")
local SaveCashDataStore = DataStoreService:GetDataStore("SaveCashDataStore")

game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(Player)
	
	--Cash
	local leaderstats = Instance.new("Folder")
	leaderstats.Name = "leaderstats"
	leaderstats.Parent = Player
	
	local Cash = Instance.new("IntValue")
	Cash.Name = "Cash"
	Cash.Value = 0
	Cash.Parent = leaderstats
	--Cash
	
	--Loading in the data when a player joins
	local Data
	local Success, ErrorMessage = pcall(function()
		Data = SaveCashDataStore:GetAsync(Player.UserId)
	end)
	if Success then
		Cash.Value = Data
		print("Sucessfully loaded data")
	else
		print("There was an error loading data")
		warn(ErrorMessage)
	end
end)
--Loading in the data when a player joins

--Saving data
game.Players.PlayerRemoving:Connect(function(Player)
	local Data = Player.leaderstats.Cash.Value
	local Success, ErrorMessage = pcall(function()
		SaveCashDataStore:SetAsync(Player.UserId, Data)
	end)
	if Success then
		print("Sucessfully saved data")
	else
		print("There was an error saving data")
		warn(ErrorMessage)
	end
end)
--Saving data

ok, make the post a solution since you solved it yourself

#39

Uhhh, how would I do that? Uhhhh

#40

So there should be a checkbox with ‘Solution’ on the message, press that

#41

I know that but which message? ADDING CHARACTERS

#42

Yours, the script that works that you made with the help of devking

#43

Anyways although you already resolved this topic, I still recommend adding this in as like a extra precaution.
