Help with DataStore Editor plugin

GAFFAL_1236 · February 25, 2021, 1:08pm

Oh, got it. You can leave your code how it is. In the plugin key section, type the key Player_1739689185

Here where you put “test”

PipeSader · February 25, 2021, 1:11pm

and in the script and the datastore name what should I put?

GAFFAL_1236 · February 25, 2021, 1:15pm

This part is correct:

Because you are using this datastore.

Here where you put “test”, it should be Player_1739689185

DO NOT CHANGE YOUR CODE, LEAVE IT AS IT WAS.

Got this, but how can I access to this? gold int value

local Gold = Instance.new ("IntValue", playerFolder)
Gold.Name = "Gold"

GAFFAL_1236 · February 25, 2021, 1:22pm

This 0 should be your gold.

PipeSader · February 25, 2021, 1:22pm

I changed it to 150 in datastore plugin and in the game print it is still 0

PipeSader · February 25, 2021, 1:23pm

and i create a new instance to test if it really was the gold and this is not the gold

GAFFAL_1236 · February 25, 2021, 1:26pm

I can’t understand, you should put Player_1739689185 here:

Oh sorry about that im using the id of my other account

i did it and it show no data

GAFFAL_1236 · February 25, 2021, 1:29pm

Have you played the game with that account?

PipeSader · February 25, 2021, 1:30pm

yes and still show no data

GAFFAL_1236 · February 25, 2021, 1:31pm

That’s weird, try to create some data (a number only) and play the game with that account.

XdJackyboiiXd21 · February 25, 2021, 1:32pm

No, you need to put the placeid. If you go to the game’s homepage on roblox, the link to the game will have the id in it.

For example, this is the link to adopt me:

https://www.roblox.com/games/920587237/Adopt-Me?refPageId=791b5050-a854-46d3-a374-148dc2415c0b

So the placeid for adopt me is

920587237

So the name should still be “playerGold”, but the Set Place ID should be your game id.

still in 0 i dont know what’s wrong why it is not getting the changed gold value?

script:

-- DataStore System
local DataStore = game:GetService("DataStoreService")
local PlayerData = DataStore:GetDataStore("playerGold")

game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(player)
	local playerFolder = Instance.new("Folder", player)
	playerFolder.Name = "Data"

	local Gold = Instance.new("IntValue", playerFolder)
	Gold.Name = "Gold"

	-- Load data
	local data
	local key = "Player_".. player.UserId
	local success, errormessage = pcall(function()
		data = DataStore:GetAsync(key)
	end)

	-- if success
	if success then
		Gold.Value = data
	elseif data == nil then
		Gold.Value = 0
		print("gold has been saved.")
	else
		print("error saving data, error saving data!!!")
		warn(errormessage)
	end
end)

Wait can you put a screenshot of what you put into the plugin.

PipeSader · February 25, 2021, 1:44pm

I just updated the pic from my comment above, is that pic the one you need? i changed this value from 0 to 150

XdJackyboiiXd21 · February 25, 2021, 1:46pm

I’m sorry I have never used this plug in before. So you put the place id and you put the data store name?

PipeSader · February 25, 2021, 1:50pm

yeah, but it is not show the data from my database, I seriously believe that I will dedicate myself better to programming it xD

Try using this video

PipeSader · February 25, 2021, 2:44pm

The truth is that this video does not clarify anything, I saw it and did not learn anything … I seriously prefer to create the database in a script, I see it faster and easier to do…
