Could you show where you save cDataStore? It matters what type of data you’re storing.

local plrChecklist = {}
local checklist = player.c:GetChildren()
for i, v in pairs(checklist) do
checkListItem = v.Name
checkListItem = {
v.Value
}
table.insert(plrChecklist, checkListItem)
end
local success, errormessage = pcall(function()
cDataStore:SetAsync(playerUserId, plrChecklist)
end)

there is no table’s name. the table is represented by keys and values so if you want to have a “name” you should set it as the key when you’re saving the datastore
something like
cData["Example"] = 1

the same way you set it
local value = cData["Example"]
and that will return 1

i cant do that because then there would be
cData[“Hungry”]
cData[“Armed”]
cData[“Transparent”]
cData[“Fiery”]
cData[“Confused”]
ect

you can do
for tablename , v in pairs(cData) do
plr.c[tablename].Value = v
end
tablename will be Hungry for example and v will be the value in that key
thank you so much! the saving and loading worked well too
