#32

#33

yes i am in the server perspective

#34

I will write you a data store code based off yours

#35

thank you Liam. :smiley: :+1: .

I did not tested it, but I believe it should work fine.

local DataStore = game:GetService("DataStoreService"):GetDataStore("PlayerData")

game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(player)

	local folder = Instance.new("Folder")
	folder.Name = "leaderstats"
	folder.Parent = player	

	local currency = Instance.new("IntValue")
	currency.Name = "Coins"

	local ok, result = pcall(DataStore.GetAsync, DataStore, player.UserId)

	if ok then -- you must check if you successfully retrieved the data
		
		if result then -- if the player has data
			currency.Value = result
		else -- if the player doesn't have data
			currency.Value = 5
		end
		
		currency.Value += 5 -- every time you play the game the currency will increase by 5, this will let you know if the data is saving
		
		currency.Parent = folder -- you should always make changes and then parent the Instance
	else
		warn(result) -- if we failed to retrieve data, result will be a warning message
	end
end)

game.Players.PlayerRemoving:Connect(function(player)
	local Coins = player.leaderstats.Coins
	local ok, result = pcall(DataStore.SetAsync, DataStore, player.UserId, Coins.Value)
	
	if ok then -- if we successfully saved the data
		warn("data has been saved")
	else
		warn(result) -- once again, if we failed, result will be a warning message
	end
end)

game:BindToClose(function()
	for _,player in ipairs(game.Players:GetPlayers()) do
		coroutine.wrap(function()
			local Coins = player.leaderstats.Coins
			pcall(DataStore.SetAsync, DataStore, player.UserId, Coins.Value) -- we don't need to check there because its pointless (not in studio).
		end)
	end
end)

so that should work for me? ill test it out now

#38

ok i got 10 coins now let me leave and join back

#39

ok i still got 10 coins let me add more on to see if that works

#40

if its not working, there should be warning message in your output pointing what’s wrong and what you shall fix

#41

its not working ill tell you the script warning messages now
huh thats odd there is non

#42

I have tested it right now and its working perfectly fine for me, make sure you have API Services enabled in game settings > security > Data Store > Enable studio access to API Services, if it still doesn’t work, test it in game not in studio.

#43

image its always been on

#44

I have no clue what’s happening then, it is working fine at least for me, are you using a script that is located in ServerScriptService?

#45

yes the script is there image

#46

Try to change once again the DataStore name.

#47

ok i changed the data store name ill try again

#48
