I’ve seen many posts like this, but none of them had the solution to my problem.
I have a save system where it stores strings and numbers triggered by an bindable event from clicking a GUI button. The save function is called from a module script.
This warning comes up whenever the event is fired, though

From what I read, this comes up if there are too many requests queued at once. I’m not sure how I got this error because the event only fires once.

Here’s my code:
Part of Save Module script

local function savePlayerData(playerUserId)

if sessionData[playerUserId] then

PreferenceData:SetAsync(playerUserId, sessionData[playerUserId])

end

end

function PlayerPreferences:SaveData(player)

local playerUserId = "Player_" .. player.UserId

savePlayerData(playerUserId)

end

Script that calls module script, triggered by remote event

changeEvent.OnServerEvent:Connect(function (player, newChar)

saveModule:ChangePreference(player, "Character", newChar) --sets up new changes to data

saveModule:SaveData(player) ---------------The issue----------------

end)

So the problem here is the :SaveData() functions is called more than every 6 seconds see this for more information Documentation - Roblox Creator Hub
Also you should really only save data when like every 60 seconds like an auto save or when player leaves never ever try and save the players data that can be called using a remote event as a player could set up a script that calls it so often that the game can’t save it.
