Am I using DataStore2 correctly? Using a whole bunch of stores for each single variable I want to save seems wrong. On the DataStore2 website guide I cannot find an answer to this. If anyone knows what I should do please tell me.

You need to combine all the different keys into the DATA1 key, otherwise you’ll probably get rate limited which may cause the issue. If you try to view DATA1 in the current state it will just show as blank.

I can see that you made an attempt to combine them

DataStore2.Combine(“DATA1”)

However, you didn’t add the actual keys to the combine function.
e.g.

DataStore2.Combine("DATA1", "gender", "playerName", "agencyName", "characterSkin", 'etc.')
