it's probably a roblox error, the servers are pretty busy right now

I am quite sure it would save. Make sure you have "Enable Studio access to API services" under game settings enabled. Otherwise, it might just be their servers.

It is on, and it saves normally inside of studio. But then I try testing it from the Roblox website, and sometimes it'll save, sometimes it won't.
