Hi, I'm trying to save a value to my datastore, When I run the script it says nothing. Help?

Script is in serverscriptservice and FE is on.

if you want to, just give me a working script with my variables instead of attempting to fix this one

01local players = game:GetService("Players")
02 
03local Workpace = game:GetService("Workspace")
04 
05local DataStoreService = game:GetService("DataStoreService")
06 
07local StrengthData = DataStoreService:GetDataStore("StrengthData")

10players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(plr)
11wait(3)

13local strength = plr.PlayerGui.Points:WaitForChild("PointDisplay")

17    local success, errormessage = pcall(function()
18    StrengthData:GetAsync(plr.UserId.."-Strength")

It could be possible that the PlayerAdded script is being ran after the player is added, therefore not running. moo1210 587 — 4y
