How do you load and save player a data

[MrBoaz64 (Boaz_Dev)]

Give me a step by step guide of datastoreservices and how to load and save player data.

Alright! So, in a script, the first thing you do is set a variable to be your datastore.

local datastore = game:GetService("DatastoreService"):GetDatastore("plrvalues")

With a datastore, we can set any value to a key. The key must be a string.

So, for example,

datastore:SetAsync(plrdatatable, key)

plrdatatable would be a table of the data you want to save. Usually, most developers use the player’s user id as the key as it is different for each player.

And then, we can get data by providing the key:

local plrdata = datastore:GetAsync(key)

That’s really how datastore’s work. I can’t really help you any further unless I know more about what you are using it for.

It’s there anything else I should know about concerning this?

Not really except for a BindToClose, although I don’t have enough time to explain. Good luck with your project!

You can read about it here:

Datastore Binding to Close

Hello, I’m using Datastore and I was wondering how I would bind to close for my stats? here is the code: ``local DataStoreService = game:GetService(“DataStoreService”) local currencyStore = DataStoreService:GetDataStore(“currencyStore”) game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(player) local produce = Instance.new(“Folder”) produce.Name = “Produce” produce.Parent = player local leaderstats = Instance.new("Folder") leaderstats.Name = "leaderstats" leaderstats.Parent = player ------------…
