My code only reads nil from datastore, help?
Hi guys. Im trying to create a position saver with datastore. This part below is how i saved the data. The second part is where it reads nil aways instead of the saved value.
Why is this happening?
01 | -- saving: |
02 | local playerUserId = "Player_"..player.UserId |
03 | local character = sessionData[playerUserId].Char |
04 | sessionData[playerUserId].X = character.HumanoidRootPart.CFrame.Position.X |
05 | sessionData[playerUserId].Y = character.HumanoidRootPart.CFrame.Position.Y |
06 | sessionData[playerUserId].Z = character.HumanoidRootPart.CFrame.Position.Z |
07 | sessionData[playerUserId].x = character.HumanoidRootPart.CFrame.LookVector.X |
08 | sessionData[playerUserId].y = character.HumanoidRootPart.CFrame.LookVector.Y |
09 | sessionData[playerUserId].z = character.HumanoidRootPart.CFrame.LookVector.Z |
10 | print("saved X =",sessionData[playerUserId].X) |
11 | local tries = 0 |
12 | local success |
13 | local errormsg |
14 | repeat |
15 | tries = tries + 1 |
16 | success, errormsg = pcall(function() playerData:SetAsync(playerUserId, sessionData[playerUserId]) end) |
01 | -- reading: |
02 | local data |
03 | local sussess, errormsg = pcall(function() data = playerData:GetAsync(playerUserId) end) |
04 | if data then -- se tiver |
05 | warn("DataStore downloaded for", player) |
06 | sessionData[playerUserId] = data |
07 | print("reading X =", sessionData[playerUserId].X) -- prints nil |
08 |
09 | spawn(function() -- this part is constanty atualizing character info for when player leaves. |
10 | while saving and player.Character do |
11 | if character.Humanoid.SeatPart ~= nil then |
12 | seat = character.Humanoid.SeatPart |
13 | end |
14 | if seat then |
15 | sessionData[playerUserId].Vehicle = character.Humanoid.SeatPart.Parent.Name |

Notes: I checked that "sessionData[playerUserId].Char" is saving corectly with all infos needed. Also I tried putting a generic number instead of Position.X and it keeps returning nil instead of the number, to make sure I can save Position.XYZ in datastore. The "data" variable is sussessfuly returning a table. All the data saved comes just as "nil nil nil nil".
Is it possible to be corrupt data or something like this?

Do this script:
01 | local DataStore = game:GetService("DataStoreService") |
02 | local ds1 = DataStore:GetDataStore("PositionSave") |
03 |
04 | game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(Player) |
05 | local leaderstats = Instance.new("Folder") |
06 | leaderstats.Name = "leaderstats" |
07 | leaderstats.Parent = Player |
08 |
09 | local Pos = Instance.new("CFrameValue") |
10 | Pos.Name = "PlayerPosition" |
11 | Pos.Parent = leaderstats |
12 | Pos.Value = ds1:GetAsync(Player.UserId) or CFrame.new(workspace.StartPart) --Make a Part in Workspace called StartPart and put it where players spawn if it's their first time playing. |
13 | Player.Character.Head.CFrame = CFrame.new(Pos.Value) |
14 | ds1:SetAsync(Player.UserId, Pos.Value) |
15 | print(Player.Name.."'s Position was successfully loaded!" |

It may or may not work, by mark as solved if it did! If it didn't get word to me and I'll try help again.

you cant save a Vector3 value in datastore =\ Necro_las 412 — 4y

and moving a players head like that causes instant death Necro_las 412 — 4y

Just try it and I can try something else if it fails JB_SuperGamer 165 — 4y
