DataStore request was added to queue. If request queue fills, further requests will be dropped. Try sending fewer requests.Key = CandyData1186752308.

It won’t save please help. It doesn’t add tool when u join back.

When there’s only 1 player in the game and the player leaves the game it sets their Data and the server also shuts down so it sends another request since you have game:BindToClose which shouldn’t be a problem since it’s only 2 times.

and also the script does nothing if data = nil so it won’t load anything. you should add an “if not data then” inside that it creates a new table and inserts all the tools.

I hope this works for you.
