DataStores Access and Storage Updates

[MightyDantheman (Fate)]

I’m going to write this here as it’s a more accurate topic:

I would like the cap to increase by 4 MB per player rather than 1 MB.

While this still isn’t ideal, allowing us to use the full DataStore per player would be a compromise that I can accept. It’s also odd that you give us 4 MB per DataStore but not 4 MB per player.

I go into this a bit more in this reply, and related quotes/replies:

Powerful Updates for Data Stores Observability Dashboard

This is nice and all, but the 2026 DataStore cap ruins any experience where players can build freely at a large scale and having it save, at least without completely watering down what’s possible. I’m a bit confused as to why this cap is being imposed if less than 1% of experiences will go beyond this cap? If that’s the case, this shouldn’t cause any issues. At the very least, I would like the cap to increase by 4 MB per player rather than 1 MB.
