Provide an overview of:
- What does the code do and what are you not satisfied with?
So basically I’m using DataStore2 to implement a Money System. Players join the server (first time) and get 100 “Currency”. They can get more money for time they spend online on the server. All of this works fine and everything gets saved and comes back after someone leaves and rejoins. The point where I’m not satisfied with is, that it looks like that DataStore2 got a lot of Data loading fails (or at least only in studio?) It happens most of the times, that the money does not get loaded. - What potential improvements have you considered?
I tried with addinglua currencyStore:SetBackup(5)to prevent loading fails, but it seems not to work or at least I did it wrong.
local players = game:GetService("Players")
local replicatedStorage = game:GetService("ReplicatedStorage")
local DataStore2 = require(1936396537)
local defaultCurrencyAmount = 100
local giveDelay = 600
local giveReward = 5
-- Updates Money changes --
players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(plr)
local currencyStore = DataStore2("currency", plr)
currencyStore:SetBackup(5)
local function updateClientCurrency(amount)
replicatedStorage.RemoteEvents.UpdateClientCurrency:FireClient(plr, amount)
end
updateClientCurrency(currencyStore:Get(defaultCurrencyAmount))
currencyStore:OnUpdate(updateClientCurrency)
end)
-- Money for Time spending online --
while wait(giveDelay) do
for k, v in pairs(players:GetChildren()) do
local currencyStore = DataStore2("currency", v)
currencyStore:Increment(giveReward)
end
wait(1)
end
Thank y’all already for your help. If you find anything else I can change, feel free to tell me.
