If data is saved then it will print error. My script print Error. It should have saved. what did I do wrong

local DataStoreService = game:GetService("DataStoreService")
local PlayerDataStore = DataStoreService:GetDataStore("PlayerDataStore")

game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(player)
    local leaderstats = Instance.new("Folder", player)
    leaderstats.Name = "leaderstats"

    local points = Instance.new("IntValue", leaderstats)    
        points.Name = "Points"
        local PlayerID = "player"..player.UserId

        local PlayerData
        local success, errormessage = pcall(function()
        PlayerData = PlayerDataStore:GetSync(PlayerID)

        end)

        if success then
            points.Value = PlayerData
        end

end)

game.Players.PlayerRemoving:Connect(function(player)
    local PlayerID = "player"..player.UserId
    local data = player.leaderstats.Points.Value
    local success, errormessage = pcall(function()
            PlayerDataStore:SetSync(PlayerID, data)
    end)


    if success then 
        print ("data saved")
    else
            print ("error")
    end
end)

Hmm.... I added print after the first function and added print after the second function and it all ran, meaning that there is nothing wrong with my script, yet still it did not print "data saved" or "error" HegemoneXT -45 — 4y

Howdy!

It's :SetAsync(), not :SetSync(). Look at line 14 and 28. You can read more about this here.

This is what it says

--[[
    Calls a function and throws an error if it attempts to yield.

    Pass any number of arguments to the function after the callback.

    This function supports multiple return; all results returned from the
    given function will be returned.
]]

local function resultHandler(co, ok, ...)
    if not ok then
        local message = (...)
        error(debug.traceback(co, message), 2)
    end

    if coroutine.status(co) ~= "dead" then
        error(debug.traceback(co, "Attempted to yield inside changed event!"), 2)
    end

    return ...
end

local function NoYield(callback, ...)
    local co = coroutine.create(callback)

    return resultHandler(co, coroutine.resume(co, ...))
end

return NoYield
