Trouble figuring out how to do Daily Challenges

[papahetfan]

Hey!

I am trying to figure out how I can do something like Daily Rewards, or Daily Challenges? I don’t know how to start, since I am really wanting to use Daily Challenges in my game. Let me know if you have any advice on how I can script it.

Thank you very much!

Sincerely,

you need to use datastoreservice and save os.time() and in order to get it to os.time() - datastore:getasync and after that do if timeleft >= timeinseconds then --reward and thats it

Maybe a starting point although I might do things slightly differently if I were to write this again:

Run A Function Every 24 Hours

Use os.date("!*t") to get the current time in UTC time. It returns a table like this: { ["day"] = 20, ["hour"] = 7, ["isdst"] = false, ["min"] = 14, ["month"] = 2, ["sec"] = 13, ["wday"] = 7, ["yday"] = 51, ["year"] = 2021 } More info on that here: os Basically, save the “last called at” time by inserting the result of os.date into a DataStore when a new challenge starts. Check that value when a player joins. Here’s the basic flowchart: [Blank diagram (1)]
