Autosave script (stat saving script)?
I am making a stat saving script but it just says ServerScriptService.Script:38: Expected ')' (to close '(' at line 34), got 'end' when i test the game... I turned on HTTP and API... Heres the script:
**game.Players.PlayerAdded:connect(function(player)
local StartingMoney = (0)
--------------------------------------------------------
local leaderstats = Instance.new("Folder")
leaderstats.Name = "leaderstats"
leaderstats.Parent = player
local money = Instance.new("NumberValue")
sticks.Name = "Sticks"
sticks.Parent = leaderstats
sticks.Value = StartingSticks
local dataStore = game:GetService("DataStoreService"):GetDataStore("SticksData")
starterSticks = 0--This is the starter money
game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(plr)
local leaderstats = Instance.new("Folder")
leaderstats.Name = "leaderstats"
leaderstats.Parent = plr
local money = Instance.new("IntValue")
sticks.Name = "Sticks" --Put ur currency name here, mine is Money
sticks.Value = dataStore:GetAsync(plr.UserId) or starterSticks
sticks.Parent = leaderstats
end)
game.Players.PlayerRemoving:Connect(function(plr)
dataStore:SetAsync(plr.UserId, plr.leaderstats.Sticks.Value)
end**

Howdy!
You're missing a parenthesis at the very bottom of your script. Replace your PlayerRemoving function with what I got below.
game.Players.PlayerRemoving:Connect(function(plr)
dataStore:SetAsync(plr.UserId, plr.leaderstats.Sticks.Value)
end)
You're also missing a "end)" at the end of your PlayerAdded. But before I address that, why do you have a PlayerAdded function INSIDE of a PlayerAdded function? It's a little arbitrary.
I recommend that you just remove the line in the middle of your script that says game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(plr). It's breaking the script and it's too unnecessary to keep in so there is no reason to fix it. Just remove it.
If this helped you out, consider accepting this answer for those sweet, sweet reputation points. If not, comment below and I (or someone else) will help you out.

I removed game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(plr) but now it says ServerScriptService.Script:34: Expected 'end' (to close 'function' at line 1), got <eof>; did you forget to close 'function' at line 21?

end)
