FOV saving doesn't work

[Leone984 (Leone)]

Hello, I was trying to make a FOV saving script but apparently, it doesn’t work. I tried to search on the internet but couldn’t find anything. I appreciate any help.
This is the script:

local DataStoreService = game:GetService("DataStoreService")
local FieldOfViewDataStore = DataStoreService:GetDataStore("FieldOfViewDataStore")

game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(plr)
	local data
	local success, errormessage = pcall(function()
		data = FieldOfViewDataStore:GetAsync(plr.UserId.."-fov")
	end)
	
	if success then
		game.Workspace.CurrentCamera.FieldOfView = data
	else
		print("Error while getting "..plr.Name.." FOV data")
		warn(errormessage)
	end
end)

game.Players.PlayerRemoving:Connect(function(player)
	local success, errormessage = pcall(function()
		FieldOfViewDataStore:SetAsync(player.UserId.."-fov",game.Workspace.CurrentCamera.FieldOfView)
	end)
	
	if success then
		print("FOV saved for "..player.Name)
	else
		print("FOV data not found for "..player.Name)
		warn(errormessage)
	end
end)

You are setting the field of view from the server, which does not work. You need to:

• Have the setting change and apply on the client
• Have the client inform the server what the new setting value is (when changed)
• Have the server tell the client what the saved value is (when the player joins the game)

This means you should have a local script somewhere reactive to this.
