When I was making my saved leaderboard stats, I got this error. Does anyone know how to fix it? The error is supposedly in line 23 by the way.

Script:

01local datastore = game:GetService("DataStoreService"):GetDataStore("Savedata")
02 
03game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(player)
04 
05 
06    local stats = Instance.new("Folder", player)
07    stats.Name = "leaderstats"
08 
09    local wins = Instance.new("IntValue")
10    wins.Name = "Wins"
11    wins.Parent = stats
12 
13    local coins = Instance.new("IntValue")
14    coins.Name = "Coins"
15    coins.Parent = stats
16 
17    local key = "player"..player.userId
18 
19    local SavedValues = datastore:GetAsync(key)
20 
21    if SavedValues then
22 
23        wins.Value = SavedValues(1)
24        coins.Value = SavedValues(2)
25 
26    else
27 
28        local ValuesToSave = {wins.Value, coins.Value}
29        datastore:SetAsync(key, ValuesToSave)
30 
31    end

Howdy!

To index a table, you use brackets - not parenthesis. Replace lines 23 and 24 with what I got below and it should work.

`1`	`wins.Value` `=` `SavedValues[1]`

`2`	`coins.Value` `=` `SavedValues[2]`
