I need help saving the date of what cards have been equiped to load when the game starts, so far the bugs i found is that when i reset the card i equip dissapear and when i rejoin the cards that were equiped dissapear too, i need help saving the these datas of wish i tried inside the game file but clearly seems impossible :disappointed_relieved:

to save and load the cards that players have equipped you can use datastore to store the data and retrieve it when the player joins or resets here is an example of how you can implement it

  1. saving the card data when a player equips a card
local datastoreService = game:GetService("DataStoreService")
local cardDataStore = datastoreService:GetDataStore("CardDataStore")

local function saveEquippedCards(player, equippedCards)
    local success, errorMessage = pcall(function()
        cardDataStore:SetAsync(player.UserId, equippedCards)
    end)
    if not success then
        warn("failed to save card data: " .. errorMessage)
    end
end

-- example of saving data when a player equips a card
local function equipCard(player, cardId)
    local equippedCards = {}  -- get the current equipped cards (this could be a table of card ids)
    table.insert(equippedCards, cardId)
    saveEquippedCards(player, equippedCards)
end

2. loading the card data when the game starts

local function loadEquippedCards(player)
    local success, equippedCards = pcall(function()
        return cardDataStore:GetAsync(player.UserId)
    end)
    
    if success and equippedCards then
        -- equip the cards stored in the data
        for _, cardId in pairs(equippedCards) do
            -- code to equip the card based on cardId
            print("equipping card: " .. cardId)
        end
    else
        -- if there is no saved data equip default cards or handle the situation
        print("no saved card data for player")
    end
end

game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(player)
    loadEquippedCards(player)
end)
  • datastoreService is used to save and load player specific data
  • setasync saves the equipped cards data while getasync retrieves it
  • playeradded is triggered when a player joins which is where you load their equipped cards

this should help save and load the equipped cards even when a player resets or rejoins. let me know if it works
