hello I have problems with my code. I use the Leaderstats code and it doesn’t work

local DataStoreService = game:GetService("DataStoreService")
local store = DataStoreService:GetDataStore("StatsStore")
local Players =game:GetService("Players")

Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(Player)
	local data= store:GetAsync(Player.UserId)
	local stats = Instance.new('Folder')
	stats.Name = 'leaderstats'
	stats.Parent = Player
	local cash = Instance.new('IntValue')
	cash.Name = 'Cash'
	cash.Parent = stats
	cash.Value = data['Cash'] or 10
	local candy = Instance.new('IntValue')
	candy.Name = 'Candy'
	candy.Value = data['CandyA']
	candy.Parent = stats
	local multiplier = Instance.new('IntValue')
	multiplier.Name = 'Multiplier'
	multiplier.Value = 1
	multiplier.Parent = Player
	local speed = Instance.new('IntValue')
	speed.Name = 'Speed'
	speed.Value = 1
	speed.Parent = Player
	
	local function change()
		local t = {
		['Cash'] = Player:WaitForChild('leaderstats'):WaitForChild("Cash").Value,
		['CandyA'] = Player:WaitForChild('leaderstats'):WaitForChild("Candy").Value
	}
	store:SetAsync(Player.UserId,t)
	end
	
	candy.Changed:Connect(change)
	cash.Changed:Connect(change)
end)

Players.PlayerRemoving:Connect(function(Player)
	print('PlayerRemoving: ' .. Player.Name)
	local t = {
		['Cash'] = Player:WaitForChild('leaderstats'):WaitForChild("Cash").Value,
		['CandyA'] = Player:WaitForChild('leaderstats'):WaitForChild("Candy").Value
	}
	print(t)
	store:SetAsync(Player.UserId,t)
end

First where are you getting the "data[“CandyA”] from?

Edit: I advise you provide full codeif you havent

in the save code I make a dictionary here

Players.PlayerRemoving:Connect(function(Player)
	print('PlayerRemoving: ' .. Player.Name)
	local t = {
		['Cash'] = Player:WaitForChild('leaderstats'):WaitForChild("Cash").Value,
		['CandyA'] = Player:WaitForChild('leaderstats'):WaitForChild("Candy").Value
	}
	print(t)
	store:SetAsync(Player.UserId,t)
end

I suggest making the Values 0 when you create then update them.
Edit: The Values you are getting from the datastore.

#12

Instead of having a dictionary, it would probably be much easier just to make multiple datastores.

#13

it’s supposed to be saved when i leave but it doesn’t work

#14

its because the data doesn’t save making separate datastores is bad practice if you want to avoid this then simply use datastore2

#15

Ok, Are you testing this in Studio?

#16

but i heard it will queue it up and be not efficient

yes, api services are yes

i do not make seperate data store

#19

If you are Testing this in Studio, you may not have granted the Studio permissions to access Datastores.

#20

simply use an easier datastore system like datastore2 or something else

if you want to avoid tons of datastores separate at each other
