Datastore just isn’t working, I am lost

local DataStore = game:GetService("DataStoreService"):GetDataStore("StoreName")

game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(player)
	local key = "key-"..player.userId
	local folder = Instance.new("Folder", player)
	folder.Name = "leaderstats"
	
	local baseDamage = Instance.new("IntValue", folder)
	baseDamage.Name = "BaseDamage"
	
	local baseStrength = Instance.new("IntValue", folder)
	baseStrength.Name = "BaseStrength"
 
	local save = DataStore:GetAsync(key)
	
	if save then
		baseDamage.Value = save[1]
		baseStrength.Value = save[2]
	else
		local load = {baseDamage.Value, baseStrength.Value}
		DataStore:SetAsync(key,load)
	end
end)

game.Players.PlayerRemoving:Connect(function(player)
	local key = "key-"..player.userId
	local load = {player.leaderstats:FindFirstChild("BaseDamage").Value, player.leaderstats:FindFirstChild('BaseStrength').Value}
	--it stops here
	DataStore:SetAsync(key,load)
end)

Yes, we are lost too. What isn’t working? Have you checked the console for any potential exceptions? Have you tried at least debugging your code? These are all crucial information

All I know, is it DOESNT run this line:

DataStore:SetAsync(key,load)
#4

Are you certain of that? Have you tried at least debugging your code? Why not start with some printing.

#5

I did. I put a print right before and after that single line, and it runs the before print but not the after.

#6

Why are you setting their data when they join the game

Very weird. It should be working. The script looks fine. 🤷
local folder = Instance.new(“Folder”, player)
** folder.Name = “leaderstats”**

The only thing I could think is wrong is the folder name check if the folder is just called folder, happens to me sometimes too.
