Im adding a datastore and ever since I added it I got this error: leaderstats not a valid member of player
local DS = game:GetService("DataStoreService") local DS1 = DS:GetDataStore("SaveJoins") game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(Player) local leaderstats = Player:WaitForChild("leaderstats") local Joins = Instance.new("IntValue", leaderstats) Joins.Name = "Joins" Joins.Value = DS1:GetAsync(Player.UserId) Joins.Value = Joins.Value + 1 end) game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(Player) DS1:GetAsync(Player.UserId, Player.leaderstats.Joins.Value) end)
You didn't create a leaderstats folder. Also you're using 2 PlayerAdded events. My advice is to consolidate everything into one event. (Note: I'll be putting --comments
for anything critical.)
local DS = get:GetService("DataStoreService") local DS1 = DS:GetDataStore("SaveJoins") game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(player) local leaderstats = Instance.new("Folder") --You need to create a folder. leaderstats.Name = "leaderstats" leaderstats.Parent = player local joins = Instance.new("IntValue") --do not use the 2nd parameter of Instance.new() as it is somewhat slower, and considered deprecated. joins.Name = "Joins" joins.Parent = leaderstats end)
Edit: At asker's request, I sent a link to Devking's DataStoreService video. DataStoreService
It Doesn't Look Like You Made A leader stats folder. Unless You Made It in Another Script. If You Have Just Delay It. But If You Haven't Then Make A New Instance.
This Script Might Work IF You Haven't Made A leaderstats Folder
local DS = game:GetService("DataStoreService") local DS1 = DS:GetDataStore("SaveJoins") game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(Player) local leaderstats = Instance.new("Folder") leaderstats.Name = "leaderstats" leaderstats.Parent = Player local Joins = Instance.new("IntValue", leaderstats) Joins.Name = "Joins" Joins.Value = DS1:GetAsync(Player.UserId) Joins.Value = Joins.Value + 1 end) game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(Player) DS1:GetAsync(Player.UserId, Player.leaderstats.Joins.Value) end)
