Why does this datastore script not work?

[nicknickphoenix (RoughinIt_Dev)]

I’m trying to make a datastore save whether or not a player has a vehicle. The script is

local DataStoreService = game:GetService("DataStoreService")
local HasMotorBoat = DataStoreService:GetDataStore("HasMotorboat")
local Players = game:GetService("Players")

Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(Player)
	local UserId = Player.UserId
	local Currency = HasMotorBoat:GetAsync(UserId)

	
	

	local HasMotorBoatStats = Instance.new("Folder", Player)
	HasMotorBoatStats.Name = "HasMotorBoatStats"
	if not HasMotorBoatStats == 1 then
		HasMotorBoatStats = 0

	end
	local HasMotorBoat2 = Instance.new("IntValue", HasMotorBoatStats)
	HasMotorBoat2.Name = "HasMotorBoat2"



	HasMotorBoat.Changed:Connect(function(NewValue)
		HasMotorBoat:SetAsync(UserId, NewValue)
		print("ASYNC")
	end)
end)

It never prints “ASYNC”. I’m pretty sure I just got one of the two variables messed up, but I couldn’t figure out which one and where.

There’s a few problems with this, firstly

@nicknickphoenix

local HasMotorBoatStats = Instance.new("Folder", Player)
	HasMotorBoatStats.Name = "HasMotorBoatStats"
	if not HasMotorBoatStats == 1 then
		HasMotorBoatStats = 0

	end

Here you’re trying to change a Folder into a number, which doesn’t really work, secondly

@nicknickphoenix

HasMotorBoat.Changed:Connect(function(NewValue)
		HasMotorBoat:SetAsync(UserId, NewValue)
		print("ASYNC")
	end)

Datastores don’t have .Changed, that only works for BaseValues

Try fixing up those issues and see if it fixes it
