Infinite loading Bug

Help and Feedback Scripting Support
#1

Basically there is a bug within my game where the players data loads infinitely and I am not sure why. At first I thought I was getting the data too many times but it stops loading the on the first value I try to get… Sometimes it works fine, other times it takes forever. It seems to be when a laggy player joins the server first but I’m not completely sure.

I’ve tried to shorten the code as much as I can for this post. The actual script has a lot more in it but I removed it as it wasn’t necessary for this.

Anyone know how I can stop this issue from occurring?

local ReplicatedStorage = game:GetService("ReplicatedStorage")
local Players = game:GetService("Players")
local ServerScriptService = game:GetService("ServerScriptService")

local DataStore2 = require(ServerScriptService.DataStore2)

local MaxLevel = 100
local MaxGold = 1000

DataStore2.Combine(
	"StatData1",
	"Level",
	"AvilablePoints",
	"Strength",
	"Durability",
	"Stamina",
	"Gold",

I don’t see anything wrong with your code. How do you know this is where the problem is?

#3

When I got this issue, I looked inside of my statistics and saw that it hadn’t loaded any of the values. I’ve also seen this error at one point. “Datastore request was added to a queue. If request queue fills, further requests will be dropped”

I’ve tried putting a small wait in-between each time I get a piece of data (0.2 seconds) but I dont know if this will help or not.

Maybe it’s the fact there’s like 20 different stores. I don’t know how datastore2 works though, but maybe it has something to do with that.
