How do you assign a saving variable to a player? [UNANSWERED]
Ok. So, I understand this as a very basic idea of assigning a variable, but I want to be able to have the ability to update and save. I've read up on the DataStoreService and I am just confused on how I do this in reality for my script. I just want to be able to store a numerical value.
So far, I have basically this. I need help assigning the value to the actual player. Im not sure how to effectively assign the number to the particular player when they touch the block.
01 | local game = game:GetService("DataStoreService"):GetDataStore("StageNumber") |
02 | local key = "user_" .. player.userId |
04 | function PlayerAdded () |
05 | game.Players.PlayerAdded:connect(function(player) |
06 | player = workspace:FindFirstChild("Player") |
07 | if (game:GetAsync(key) >= 1) |
08 | then print ("Welcome Back " .. player.GetFullName()) |
09 | else game:SetAsync(key, 1) |
10 | print ("Welcome " .. player.GetFullName()) |
14 | for _, player in pairs(game.Players:GetPlayers()) do |
18 | if (game.Players:FindFirstChild("Player1") == true) then |
19 | game:GetService("DataStoreService"):GetDataStore("StageNumber"):SetAsync("Player1", 1) |
Please help me understand this.
Thanks for your time,
