So this is my currenct datastore and for some reason when it gets to line 25 (which is the line under the datastore comment, about the armourstore) it says called a table value, and this is meant to be a table so I’m not sure, Also I’m new to scripting so sorry for the messy script.

#2

Attempt to call basically means you are trying to use a table like a function

#3

This error appears when a table contains both indexes (1,2,3,4, etc) and strings (“armor1”, “armor2”, etc) as keys. This is maybe the problem.

EDIT: Try to print all the keys in your table. This might be tricky and I am not 100% sure if ipairs will give you both so maybe try to iterate over the table with both pairs and ipairs and see if you have both numbers and strings as keys.

#4

I don’t have anything in the table currently, since I haven’t made an armour, so the table should be empty right now. Unless that’s the problem.

#5

One more thing. Where are you getting HTTPService from? I do not see it in the script.

#6

This is wrong and irrelevant.

The issue is here; armourStore, potionsStore, and weaponsStore are tables, not functions. You meant to :Get({ }).

Thank you, I was wondering why there was an error. :heart:

#8

I mean I said this first, but you showed a broader explanation

#9

but you never showed OP where they made the mistake so

???

#10

It is quite different. He actually gave a solution while you just reread the error text.

#11

Nah I told him what the error meant
