How do I add another stat datastore save to my stats script?
Hello, So I'm making a game and I was wondering how can I add so my kills stat would save. I already added it so I just need the save thingy. The problem is that a guy on here gave me this script and I don't really understand it that much.
My code:
local DataStoreService = game:GetService("DataStoreService")
local CashDS = DataStoreService:GetDataStore("Cash")
local RS = game:GetService("RunService")
game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(plr)
local Cash = Instance.new("IntValue")
Cash.Name = "Cash"
Cash.Parent = plr
Cash.Value = 0
local Kills = Instance.new("IntValue")
Kills.Name = "Kills"
Kills.Parent = plr
Kills.Value = 0
local data
local g, err = pcall(function()
data = CashDS:GetAsync("cash_"..plr.UserId)
end)
if not g then
warn(err)
else
if data ~= nil then
Cash.Value = data
end
end
end)
game:BindToClose(function()
if RS:IsStudio() then return end
local plrs = game.Players:GetPlayers()
for _, plr in pairs(plrs) do
local data = plr.Cash.Value
if plr:FindFirstChild("TagValue") then
data -= 50
end
if data then
local g, err = pcall(function()
CashDS:UpdateAsync("cash_"..plr.UserId, function(old)
local new = old or 0
new = data
return new
end)
end)
if not g then
warn(err)
end
end
end
end)
game.Players.PlayerRemoving:Connect(function(plr)
local data = plr.Cash.Value
if plr:FindFirstChild("TagValue") then
data -= 50
end
if data then
local g, err = pcall(function()
CashDS:UpdateAsync("cash_"..plr.UserId, function(old)
local new = old or 0
new = data
return new
end)
end)
if not g then
warn(err)
end
end
end)

These leaderstats are good but there are better ones that use NumberValues as leaderstats, and it's so much easier to add more of them and it goes up to even infinite amounts of leaderstat names! Simply put this script inside of ServerScriptService and put NumberValues inside of it. Make sure the values are named after the leaderstats u want in ur game. Only one of the leaderstats will work inside of Studio, normally they all work, so u should probably make a testing place if u dont have one already. Hope this helped!
game.Players.PlayerAdded:connect(function(player)
local DataStore = game:GetService("DataStoreService")
local leader = Instance.new("Folder",player)
leader.Name = "leaderstats"
for i,v in pairs(script:GetChildren()) do
local d = DataStore:GetDataStore(v.Name)
local x = Instance.new("NumberValue",leader)
x.Name = v.Name
x.Value = d:GetAsync(player.UserId) or v.Value
end
end)
game.Players.PlayerRemoving:Connect(function(player)
for i,v in pairs(script:GetChildren()) do
print("Getting")
local DataStore = game:GetService("DataStoreService")
local d = DataStore:GetDataStore(v.Name)
d:SetAsync(player.UserId, player.leaderstats[v.Name].Value)
print("Saved")
end
end)
