I can't save data in my game. I have a DataStore script. Can anybody help fix this?
So this is a script for DataStore and leaderstats. I do have studio access to API services on.
local serverStorage = game:GetService("ServerStorage")
local dataStore = game:GetService("DataStoreService"):GetDataStore("PlayerSave")
game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(player)
local leaderstats = Instance.new("Folder")
leaderstats.Name = "leaderstats"
leaderstats.Parent = player
local strength = Instance.new("NumberValue")
strength.Name = "Strength"
strength.Parent = leaderstats
local rebirths = Instance.new("IntValue")
rebirths.Name = "Rebirths"
rebirths.Parent = leaderstats
local dataFolder = Instance.new("Folder")
dataFolder.Name = player.Name
dataFolder.Parent = serverStorage.RemoteData
local debounce = Instance.new("BoolValue")
debounce.Name = "Debounce"
debounce.Parent = dataFolder
local strengthData, rebirthsData
local success, errormessage = pcall(function()
strengthData = dataStore:GetAsync("strength-"..player.UserId)
rebirthsData = dataStore:GetAsync("rebirths-"..player.UserId)
end)
if success then
if strengthData then
strength.Value = strengthData
rebirths.Value = rebirthsData
end
end
end)
game.Players.PlayerRemoving:Connect(function(player)
local success, errormessage = pcall(function()
dataStore:SetAsync("strength-"..player.UserId.player.leaderstats.Strength.Value)
dataStore:SetAsync("rebirths-"..player.UserId.player.leaderstats.Rebirths.Value)
end)
end)
My game will NOT save data for some reason... If you can help me, please reply or put an answer.

The reason why it is not saving is that you conjoined player.UserId with the "Strength" and "Rebirths" values on lines 42 and 43. All you have to do is add a comma instead of a period in between both parameters. I have the solution below if you want to see the correct outcome.
game.Players.PlayerRemoving:Connect(function(player)
local success, errormessage = pcall(function()
dataStore:SetAsync("strength-"..player.UserId, player.leaderstats.Strength.Value)
dataStore:SetAsync("rebirths-"..player.UserId, player.leaderstats.Rebirths.Value)
end)
end)

Do something like this inside the player removing part:
game.Players.PlayerRemoving:Connect(function(player)
local success, errormessage = pcall(function()
dataStore:SetAsync(player.UserId.."-strength", player.leaderstats.Strength.Value)
dataStore:SetAsync(player.UserId.."-rebirths", player.leaderstats.Rebirths.Value)
end)
end)
