I’m trying to get a save room type saving system in my game. I almost have the tool data store working, but I can’t figure out why it isn’t replicating the tools. I put printing messages to try to fix this, but I have no idea what the issue is. It either isn’t saving the tools at all, or is not loading them. Here is the code(the problem is at the AreaSave:LoadTools or AreaSave:SaveTools). The way it is suppose to work(which it did at one point) is to save toolids to the data store then match them with the correct tool. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks
local GameDataModule = {}
local DSS = game:GetService("DataStoreService")
local AreaSave = {}
function AreaSave:SetPosition(player,room)
local area = DSS:GetDataStore("Save Room")
local key = "Player_" .. player.UserId
local rooms = {}
rooms.x = room.X
rooms.y = room.Y
rooms.z = room.Z
local success,errormessage = pcall(function()
area:SetAsync(key,rooms)
end)
if success then
print("Successfully Saved Position")
else
warn(errormessage)
end
end
function AreaSave:GetPosition(player)
local key = "Player_" .. player.UserId
local area = DSS:GetDataStore("Save Room")
local data
local success,errormessage = pcall(function()
data = area:GetAsync(key)
end)
if success then
print("Successfully loaded position")
local coordinate = Vector3.new(data.x,data.y,data.z)
return coordinate
end
end
function AreaSave:SaveTools(player)
local backpack = player.Backpack
local save = DSS:GetDataStore("Tools")
local tools = {}
local pack = backpack:GetChildren()
local bag = player.Character:GetChildren()
for i = 1, #pack do
local id = pack[i]:FindFirstChild("ToolId")
if id then
tools[i] = pack[i].ToolId.Value
end
end
for i = 1, #bag do
if bag[i]:IsA("Tool") then
local id = bag[i]:FindFirstChild("ToolId")
if id then
tools[i] = bag[i].ToolId.Value
end
end
end
local key = "Player_" .. player.UserId
local Success,errormessage = pcall(function()
save:SetAsync(key,tools)
end)
if Success then
print("Saved Tools")
else
warn(errormessage)
end
end
function AreaSave:LoadTools(player)
wait(1)
local save = DSS:GetDataStore("Tools")
local key = "Player_" .. player.UserId
local ids
local success,errormessage = pcall(function()
ids = save:GetAsync(key)
end)
if success then
print("Loading tools")
for _, id in pairs(ids) do
local tool = script.Parent.ToolId:FindFirstChild(tostring(id))
if tool then
local o = tool.Value:Clone()
o.Parent = player.Backpack
print("Loaded tool " .. tostring(id))
-- It doesn't say this part meaning that no tools were loaded --
end
end
print("Finished loading")
-- it still says that it finished loading with no errors --
end
end
function GameDataModule:LoadSave(player)
local room = AreaSave:GetPosition(player)
player.Character:MoveTo(room)
AreaSave:LoadTools(player)
end
function GameDataModule:SaveRoom(player,position)
AreaSave:SetPosition(player,position)
AreaSave:SaveTools(player)
end
return GameDataModule
Here are the instances.
