I’d say the best way should be to simply make a team and add the players that join the gang to that team. As for creating the gang, a simple remote event like so:

event.OnServerEvent:Connect(function(plr, othervariables)
    if not plr.Team then --make sure they're not in a gang
        --create the gang
    end
end)

and I believe that’s all that is needed.

Nah it’s not just like i need a more better system. Like gangs leaderboards(by player amount), gangs which save(datastore), creating a gang(like there will be leader of gang), upgrading gang and etc. Not just team

Oh, sorry, I misunderstood. I would save the gang’s player amount through an ordered datastore and save what gang the player is in through a normal datastore you should probably also save a table of the id’s inside of that gang inside of a normal datastore. You would be able to get the top gangs by number of players inside of it through the ordered datastore.

As I said, for the gang creation, you should probably use a remote event, and for upgrades, save the upgrades used inside of the gang’s data table. The table should probably look something like this:

{
    ["People"] = {},
    ["Upgrades"] = {}
}

Every server gangs like in folder.

#12

You don’t need to create a folder for it, just insert every created gang’s name into a table and save it in a data store.

local dss = game:GetService("DataStoreService")
local gangds = dss:GetDataStore("GangNames")
local gangs = {"gang1","gang2"}
gangds:SetAsync("key", gangs)

then you could simply retrieve it by

local dss = game:GetService("DataStoreService")
local gangds = dss:GetDataStore("GangNames")
print(gangds:GetAsync("key"))

Is this Script? Or Local Script?

#14

This is a script, you can only access datastores through scripts. If you want to get it on the client, use a remote function, invoke the server, and have the server return the gangs.

#15

Okay thanks lemme try that. (30 letters)

Hello so after a week of creating i finally work on that part, how do i should add GANGS to GANGS variable each time plr create a new gang?

#17

So this is my script where i should get when player create gang

local GangCEvent = game.Workspace.GangsEvents.GangCEvent
local dss = game:GetService("DataStoreService")
local gangds = dss:GetDataStore("GangNames")
GangCEvent.OnServerEvent:Connect(function()
	print(gangds:GetAsync("key"))
	end)
