Hello!
I want to know how do i make that when the player rejoin something changes in the game that the player didnt see before.
It is just like the game “get a snack at 4 pm”
Any help is allowed, Thanks!

I need some solutions. Please help me!
when player joins save it in a data store and then check if player join when he/she joins again
I have tried so many times, Basically i did this code:
local datastore = game:GetService("DataStoreService"):GetDataStore("GameChanging")
game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(player)
local Part1 = Instance.new("BoolValue")
Part1.Parent = player
Part1.Name = "Part1"
local key = "user-" .. player.userId
local storeditems = datastore:GetAsync(key)
if storeditems then
Part1.Value = storeditems[1]
else
local items = {Part1.Value}
datastore:SetAsync(key, items)
end
end)
game.Players.PlayerRemoving:connect(function(player)
local items = {player.Part1.Value}
local key = "user-" .. player.userId
datastore:SetAsync(key, items)
end)
And another part of code for applying if it’s true (local):
while wait() do
if script.Parent.Parent.Part1.Value == true then
game.ReplicatedStorage.ChangeBoolValues:FireServer(game.ReplicatedStorage.Part1Unlock,true)
end
end

Didn’t work… Maybe i could give you the RBLX file to you maybe fix it?
(also requires to you publish the game due datastore service)

The main thing that I really see is that you’re not assigning your DataStore functions in pcalls to ensure that the data loads
Try this:
local datastore = game:GetService("DataStoreService"):GetDataStore("GameChanging")
game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(player)
local Part1 = Instance.new("BoolValue")
Part1.Parent = player
Part1.Name = "Part1"
local key = "user-" .. player.userId
local storeditems
local success, whoops = pcall(function()
storeditems = datastore:GetAsync(key)
end)
if success and storeditems then
print("Data has loaded successfully!")
Part1.Value = storeditems
else
warn("An error occured loading the data, or this is a new player!")
end
end)
game.Players.PlayerRemoving:connect(function(player)
local key = "user-" .. player.userId
local success, whoops = pcall(function()
datastore:SetAsync(key, player.Part1.Value)
end)
if success then
print("Data saved successfully!")
else
warn("An error occurred loading the data!", whoops)
end
end)
that dont work dude its it always say An error occured loading the data, or this is a new player! even tho the player aint new
i think this will work also i dont think the local scripts are necessary
--this script is for the `data store thingy`
local datastore = game:GetService("DataStoreService"):GetDataStore("GameChanging")
game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(player)
local Part1 = Instance.new("BoolValue")
Part1.Parent = player
Part1.Name = "Part1"
local key = "user-" .. player.userId
local storedItems
local sucsess, stuff = pcall(function()
storedItems = datastore:GetAsync(key)
end)
if sucsess then
print(storedItems)
if storedItems == true then
Part1.Value = true
end
print("sucsess")
print(Part1.Value)
print("Gave stuff to ".. key)
else
print("no sucsess")
end
end)
game.Players.PlayerRemoving:connect(function(player)
items = {true}
print(player.Part1.Value)
local key = "user-" .. player.userId
print(key, items)
local sucsess, whoopsie = pcall(function()
datastore:SetAsync(key, items)
end)
end)The reason why it doesn’t work is cause I haven’t implemented a BindToClose function within it yet, which sometimes the PlayerRemoving Event won’t fire within Studio
local datastore = game:GetService("DataStoreService"):GetDataStore("GameChanging")
game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(player)
local Part1 = Instance.new("BoolValue")
Part1.Parent = player
Part1.Name = "Part1"
local key = "user-" .. player.userId
local storeditems
local success, whoops = pcall(function()
storeditems = datastore:GetAsync(key)
end)
if success and storeditems then
print("Data has loaded successfully!")
Part1.Value = storeditems
else
warn("An error occured loading the data, or this is a new player!", whoops)
end
end)
local function SaveData(player)
local key = "user-" .. player.userId
local success, whoops = pcall(function()
datastore:SetAsync(key, player.Part1.Value)
print("Y u no work")
end)
print("Test")
if success then
print("Data saved successfully!")
else
warn("An error occurred loading the data!", whoops)
end
end
game.Players.PlayerRemoving:Connect(SaveData)
game:BindToClose(function()
for _, Player in pairs(game.Players:GetPlayers()) do
SaveData(Player)
end
end)
I’m not sure you cant datastore boolean Values as it says that datastores can only store string values.
it still no work it say this too
13:30:37.258 An error occured loading the data, or this is a new player! nil - Server - Script:19
13:31:00.324 Disconnect from ::ffff:127.0.0.1|59484 - Studio
13:31:00.434 DataStore request was added to queue. If request queue fills, further requests will be dropped. Try sending fewer requests.Key = user-1869110634 - Studio
13:31:00.504 Y u no work - Server - Script:28
13:31:00.504 Test - Server - Script:32
13:31:00.504 Data saved successfully! - Server - Script:35
13:31:07.287 Y u no work - Server - Script:28
13:31:07.287 Test - Server - Script:32
13:31:07.287 Data saved successfully! - Server - Script:35`Play the game again 
The data should save regardless
@RatiusRat You can, you just can’t save Instances within DataStores (Or Humanoid/Part/VehicleSeat Objects)
do you think the reason its not working for me is bc i test it in studio???
You probably put it in the wrong place
It should belong in ServerScriptService as a ServerScript, and API Services need to be turned on
It worked on my side I don’t know why it’s not working for you
the SereverScript is in server script service and APIs are on still dont know why it not work
