Hi, late reply, however, I’m getting the same issue.
What I have right now is: game.ReplicatedStorage.Events.UpdateSetting:FireServer(testValue, “test”)
The error it gives me is: ServerScriptService.SettingsData:14: invalid argument #2 (string expected, got nil)

Could you link all of your code that you used?

So here’s my solution for those who face a similar problem; Step 1: Set up a folder that holds all your settings. Each setting should be a value object, i.e., IntValue, StringValue, BoolValue, etc. [image] Mine looks like this ^ Step 2: Fire a remote event when changing one of the settings. Step 3: When this remote is fired, you’ll want to send over the name of the setting, and the value you want to set it to. The server will set the value of the desired setting. Step 4: Set up a DataStore…

You fire the remote with the name of the setting, and the value you wish to set it to. You seem to have fired it with the value, then the name.

Nope. The solution was this:

game.ReplicatedStorage.Events.UpdateSetting:FireServer("testValue", "test")

Does this have to be in a ModuleScript? Also, where does it have to be? I have it as a regular script in ServerScriptService.

[ellienonekomimi (ellie)]

A regular script in ServerScriptService is the intended way

Put it inside the settings script.
