Just changing the master key works.

Is there any other way resetting data than changing the key?

I’m not sure what you’re asking. To combine data stores, right after requiring DataStore2 write:
DataStore2.Combine("DATA", "coins", "levels", "whatever", "etc")
And then just use the stores as normal
DataStore2("coins", player)
DataStore2("levels", player)
DataStore2("whatever", player)
Lets suppose that for some reason, there are 2 scripts:
One script contains:
DataStore2(“coins”, player)
DataStore2(“levels”, player)
Another script contains:
DataStore2(“whatever”, player)
In that case, how DataStore2.Combine should be used? It have to be used in both scripts right after requiring DataStore2?

The one script has:
DataStore2.Combine("DATA", "coins", "levels")
The other has:
DataStore2.Combine("DATA", "whatever")

Is Crazyman32s DataStore editor compatible with DataStore2?

Pretty dumb question, but how would you take something from an IntValue with DataStore2? I never used this before, but saw the tutorial listed and have some understanding of it now, like how I used to do it: player.fjweoifgjgri.Value = player.fjweoifgjgri.Value - 50

Can you access the DataStore of an offline player?

No, that’s not how datastores work. I don’t even think you can make an offline datastore since if I’m not mistaken roblox removed a lot of the os file manipulation functions.

You can access normal datastores of offline players with their key (probably their UserId for example). But DS2 requires the player instance, which makes that not possible

Oh sorry I misunderstood your question, I thought you meant the roblox studio offline mode where you dont need wifi

oh no, not that lol. Although it is possible, you can simulate local datastores for offline studio there is a thread for it I think

Yes, you just need backtrack the system to determine how it wrote the Scope and the Key to access the datastores you want to see.
This is probably a good thing to know how to do with the new European Data Privacy laws.

Hello, I have a question about my code, I’m just trying to verify that this code is correct since I don’t have a way to test if it works. Should my :SetBackup() and IsBackup() work correctly here?
DataStore2.Combine("MasterDataKey","pigment","petTokens","equippedPets","currentGun","currentBackpack","petInv","gunInv","backInv","music","trajectory","othersPaint","currentQuest","doneQuest","newPaint","amountPaint")
local pigmentSave = DataStore2("pigment", player)
local petTokensSave = DataStore2("petTokens", player)
local equippedPetsSave = DataStore2("equippedPets",player)
local currentGunSave = DataStore2("currentGun", player)
local currentBackSave = DataStore2("currentBackpack",player)
local petInvSave = DataStore2("petInv",player)
local gunInvSave = DataStore2("gunInv",player)
local backInvSave = DataStore2("backInv",player)
local musicSave = DataStore2("music",player)
local trajectorySave = DataStore2("trajectory",player)
local othersPaintSave = DataStore2("othersPaint",player)
local currentQuestSave = DataStore2("currentQuest",player)
local doneQuestSave = DataStore2("doneQuest",player)
local newPaintSave = DataStore2("newPaint",player)
local amountPaintSave = DataStore2("amountPaint",player)
pigmentSave:SetBackup(3)
if pigmentSave:IsBackup() then
--alert player about backup
player:Kick("Error loading game, please rejoin.")
end

That looks right to me, yeah.

hey, since you wrote that function to clear an offline player’s datastore, can you please make one to retrieve an offline players one? I want to see data of offline players for a database lookup, thank you really appreciate it, this is the best module on this forum by far

It shouldn’t be hard to slightly tune the script I made to do it. That being said, it’s possible it could be added in the future: A way to get data of an offline user · Issue #44 · Kampfkarren/Roblox · GitHub.
