my game has a system to upgrade your weapons and buff them etc, but its been 3 days and i havent found a solution, so im asking here:
how to save values in a folder in a tool?
here’s my script, copied by a youtuber but is the only thing that worked for me
local ToolFolder = game:GetService("ReplicatedStorage"):FindFirstChild("Tools")
local DataStoreService = game:GetService("DataStoreService")
local SaveData = DataStoreService:GetDataStore("SaveData")
game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(Player)
local ToolData = SaveData:GetAsync(Player.UserId)
local Backpack = Player:WaitForChild("Backpack")
local StarterGear = Player:WaitForChild("StarterGear")
if ToolData ~= nil then
for i, v in pairs(ToolData) do
if ToolFolder:FindFirstChild(v) and Backpack:FindFirstChild(v) == nil and StarterGear:FindFirstChild(v) == nil then
ToolFolder[v]:Clone().Parent = Backpack
ToolFolder[v]:Clone().Parent = StarterGear
end
end
end
Player.CharacterRemoving:Connect(function(Character)
Character:WaitForChild("Humanoid"):UnequipTools()
end)
end)
game.Players.PlayerRemoving:Connect(function(Player)
local ToolTable = {}
for i, v in pairs(Player.Backpack:GetChildren()) do
table.insert(ToolTable, v.Name)
end
if ToolTable ~= nil then
SaveData:SetAsync(Player.UserId, ToolTable)
end
end)
