The reason it gives you that error is because you are saving strings instead of a table of strings, which would be fine except that you need 3 values saved and you are assigning the values as if it is a table.

#22

i played my game with an alt and it didnt save. And where should i replace :GetAsync() with :SetAsync()?

#23

Replace the :GetAsync() inside of the while loop with :SetAsync()

#24 
local Cashsuccess = pcall(function()
			CashDS:SetAsync(player.UserId, {Cash2.Value, Cash.Value, Cash3.Value})
end)

Is that correct?

It should be, try it and see. Is that inside the while loop?

#26

This is the while loop:

while wait(Autosave) do

		print(""..player.Name.."'s Data is Saving...")
		local Cashsuccess = pcall(function()
			CashDS:SetAsync(player.UserId, {Cash2.Value, Cash.Value, Cash3.Value})
		end)

		if Cashsuccess then
			print("Success")
		end
	end
#27

It works in Studio but i tested it with an alt and it didnt work/save

#28

Any errors? ------------------------------------------------

#29

nope nothing not even the “success” message

#30

That means it’s not saving your data for some reason. Did you wait long enough? Put a print statement inside the while loop but outside the if statement and see if it prints.

#31

i waited long enough and i put a print statement a the beginning of the script witch does not show up too.

#32

Can you post your code again? --------------

#33 
print("Check1")
local DataStore = game:GetService("DataStoreService")
local CashDS = DataStore:GetDataStore("CashDataStorage")
local Autosave = 10

game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(player)
	print("Check2")
	local Cashsuccess, newcash = pcall(function()
		return CashDS:GetAsync(player.userId,0)
	end)
	
	print(newcash)

	local leaderstats = Instance.new("Folder",player)
	leaderstats.Name = "SavesFolder"
	leaderstats.Archivable = true

	local Cash2 = Instance.new("StringValue",leaderstats)
	Cash2.Name = "AccDisabled"
	

	local Cash = Instance.new("StringValue",leaderstats)
	Cash.Name = "Save1"
	
	
	local Cash3 = Instance.new("StringValue",leaderstats)
	Cash3.Name = "PlayerPasswort"
	
	Cash2.Value = newcash[1];
	Cash.Value = newcash[2];
	Cash3.Value = newcash[3];

	while wait(Autosave) do

		print(""..player.Name.."'s Data is Saving...")
		local Cashsuccess = pcall(function()
			CashDS:SetAsync(player.UserId, {Cash2.Value, Cash.Value, Cash3.Value})
		end)

		if Cashsuccess then
			print("Success")
		end
	end
end)
#34

Did it print the “Data is saving” message?

#35

nope nothing is printing from this script, but other scrips can print.

#36

Why did you print a 0 in the :GetAsync()? Also, where is the script placed and what type of script is it?

#37

idk why its there but i removed it, The script is a “Script” and is in ServerScriptService

#38

It should be printing at least something. You’ve either disabled the script or are not looking in the right place for the output.

#39

Are you using the console to peek in at the output? If so, go to the server output and not the client.

#40

The script is Enabled and its not printing even in the server output
