How would Datastore this?

[SubToSnakeSaber (chris)]

Alright i have a script that gives +1 to a leaderboard titled “Minutes Played” but i cant find any script that saves it here is the script:

function onPlayerEntered(newPlayer)

	local stats = Instance.new("IntValue")
	stats.Name = "leaderstats"

	local mins = Instance.new("IntValue")
	mins.Name = "Minutes Playing"
	mins.Value = 0


	mins.Parent = stats
	
	stats.Parent = newPlayer

	while true do
		wait(60)
		mins.Value = mins.Value + 1
	end
end



game.Players.ChildAdded:connect(onPlayerEntered)

Try this thread:

Logging Time Played on a Game?

So times has never been my strongest point in scripting, let me just get that out the way. Me and my developers had this idea of logging days, hours, minutes and seconds played. It would be stored in a DataStore of course and every time the player joins, they could see how many days, hours, etc they have played of the game. This would open up other possibilities for what I have in mind. Does anyone know how I could do this? Like I said this isn’t my strongest point lol. Thanks, Carl Plandog …

It has tons of solutions.

Alright, so i have the saving script now but the giving script no longer works, heres the script

local datastore = game:GetService("DataStoreService")
local ds1 = datastore:GetDataStore("GemSaveSystem")
local ds2 = datastore:GetDataStore("CashSaveSystem")

game.Players.PlayerAdded:connect(function(plr)
 local folder = Instance.new("Folder", plr)
 folder.Name = "leaderstats"
 local gems = Instance.new("IntValue", folder)
 gems.Name = "Minutes"
 local cash = Instance.new("IntValue", folder)
 cash.Name = "SP"
 
 gems.Value = ds1:GetAsync(plr.UserId) or 0
 ds1:SetAsync(plr.UserId, gems.Value)
 
 cash.Value = ds2:GetAsync(plr.UserId) or 0
 ds2:SetAsync(plr.UserId, cash.Value)
 
 gems.Changed:connect(function()
  ds1:SetAsync(plr.UserId, gems.Value)
 end)
 
 cash.Changed:connect(function()
  ds2:SetAsync(plr.UserId, cash.Value)
 end)
end)
