yes, You need to enable “Studio access to api settings” in the game settings tab

#22

Problem is that it is turned on

#23

Are you using BindToClose?

If not, and you are the only player, that might be the very reason why.

#24

what you mean? so if theres player , then it will work?

#25

If you call the saveFunction for your data within BindToClose, the game server will “stay open” for about 2 minutes, whilst it runs the function.

It is great when unexpected crashes occur.

i get it , btw im having trouble with attempt to index nil with userid cause of bind2close
had no clue , any reason? maybe im the only player or , i played on studio? Nvm fixed

#27

bindToClose doesn’t pass the player as an argument.

Use a “for loop”, and iterate through each of the players within the bindToClose function

local function saveData(plr)
	local didSave = false
	
	local success, errormessage = pcall(function()
		dataStore:SetAsync(plr.UserId.."-Money", plr.leaderstats.Money.Value)
		print("Money Data Saved from game shutdown/crashed")
	end)

	if success then
		didSave = true
		print("Successfully saved Player Data!")
	else
		print("There was an error while saving player data!")
		warn(errormessage)
	end
	
	return didSave
end

game.Players.PlayerRemoving:Connect(function(plr)
	saveData(plr)
end)

game:BindToClose(function(plr)
	for _, v in pairs(game.Players:GetPlayers()) do
		local didSave = saveData(v)
		if not didSave then
			warn("Player data failed to save.")
		end
	end
end)
