Can you send me the variables you defined without sending the pictures?

--Remote events
Local GetWinEvent = game.ReplicatedStorage.GetWinEvent

add this add the very top of the script.

--Our main npc

before local npc

--Points for npc

before local point1

This comments are made to avoid confusion when reading the code in the future.

ikepik3 (Ikepik3) May 16, 2021, 9:07am #26

Seems to work, but I have already a Stats.

JoeStillHere (RJStillHere) May 16, 2021, 9:12am #27

Okay.
I will provide you a saving system for the wins incase you want.

Put this in your datastore script you just made earlier in serverscriptservice

--Put me before GetWinEvent
local function updateData(plr)
	local success, failed = pcall(function()
		dataStore:UpdateAsync(plr.UserId, function()
			local tbl = {}
			for _, i in pairs(plr.leaderstats:GetChildren()) do
				tbl[i.Name] = i.Value
			end
			return tbl
		end)
		print("Sucessfully saved in DataStore!")
	end)
	if failed then warn(failed); return end
end

game.Players.PlayerRemoving:Connect(function(plr)
	updateData(plr)
	print("Saving...")
end)

game:BindToClose(function()
	for _, i in pairs(game.Players:GetPlayers()) do
		updateData(i)
	end
end)

Please inform me if an error occurs from one of the codes I gave you.

ikepik3 (Ikepik3) May 16, 2021, 9:16am #28

Wait in the gamescript or somewhere else?

JoeStillHere (RJStillHere) May 16, 2021, 9:19am #29

its self explanatory. Every script I gave lol

JoeStillHere:

local dds = game:GetService("DataStoreService")
local dataStore = dds:GetDataStore("Values")
local GetWinEvent = game.ReplicatedStorage.GetWinEvent

--I'll just add this if you want it.
game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(plr)
	local stats = Instance.new("Folder")
	stats.Name = "leaderstats"
	stats.Parent = plr

	local stage = Instance.new("IntValue")
	wins.Name = "Wins"
	wins.Parent = stats

	local data = dataStore:GetAsync(plr.UserId)
	if data then
		print(data.Wins)
		for _,stat in pairs(stats:GetChildren()) do
			stat.Value = data[stat.Name]
		end
	else
		print(plr.Name .. " has no data")
	end
end)

GetWinEvent.OnClientEvent:Connect(function()

	local player = game.Players:GetPlayers()
	local character = player.Character
	
	dataStore:IncrementAsync(player.UserId, 1)
end)

JoeStillHere:

ikepik3 (Ikepik3) May 16, 2021, 9:22am #30

I am very confused, can you help me in the game itself

JoeStillHere (RJStillHere) May 16, 2021, 9:27am #31

I wish I could but I’m working on a project. The Saving code is supposed to be pasted in the script you made in serverscriptservice. The local GetWin is for your main script. The Wins datastore I gave you is also for the script you made in serverscriptservice.
