ik how to save data for like coins but not buildings

#5

But will this work with their tycoon? This may break something.

#6

You can just save for example the values that determine the state of the building. Then when player joins get these values and load buildings.

#8

i would need to save atleast 50 values due to the amount of upgrades

#9

If you store them in the table it wouldn’t be that bad.

#10

Maybe something like this

local states = {
	['playeruserId'] = {
		['wall'] = 1,
		['roof'] = 3,  
	} 
}

And then save them in a datastore

#11

what do you mean by 1 or 3 for the wall and roof

#12

The roof would have for example 3 upgrades aka. states and the number will describe which upgrade/state it is currently at.

#13

Rather have individual upgrades(items in the table) and save a bool value which indicates whether the user has bought it before or not.

Oh, right. That would be much easier.
