Extremely helpful! Much more clearer, while also being shorter than a video or tutorial, great job!

If you want to save data safer and easier with less risk of data loss you should also look into learning a known datastore module like ProfileService or Suphis, even if you’re a beginner, when you learn it, you’re pretty much done.
It’s also less of a hassle than regular datastores and they have templates for player data!

Thanks!
But I’ll stick with the regular DataStore for now because ProfileService is a lot more complicated.
I may try Suphis tho.

If you think ProfileService is complicated you probably won’t like Suphi’s either, but they are all pretty equal to learn as the normal datastores, just with different formats. I find it easier to stay away from the default datastore system because (i suck at it haha)
If you want, here’s my reccomended tutorials on ProfileService and SDM, SDM is more up-to-date so if you can and have the time, I’d suggest learning it, otherwise you can just stick with the default roblox datastore. One problem I have with the normal roblox datastore though is the lack of session locking.

I’ll learn ProfileService when I have time. Thank you for that tutorial!
What is session locking? I haven’t learnt it and I don’t know how to use it.
Session locking is pretty complicated, but here’s the gist of it. Just read the “Why is session locking useful?” section. Basically prevents Item Duplication and Loading Old Data.
Also I’d (PERSONALLY) reccommend Suphi’s over ProfileService as they are pretty similar but Suphi’s is more modern.
