1) I recommend using Data Stores, Data Persistence is outdated, here's the Data Store wiki page 2) You can't access Data Persistence or Data Stores through LocalScripts, you need a normal script.
Here's your revamped script:
01 | local player = script.Parent.Parent.Parent.Parent.Parent.Parent --assuming this button is in a TextButton, in a ScreenGui, this is how to find player |
02 | local creditSaves = game:GetService("DataStoreService"):GetDataStore("creditSaves") |
03 | local invSaves = game:GetService("DataStoreService"):GetDataStore("invSaves") |
04 | local credits = player.Credit.Value |
05 | local inv = player:FindFirstChild("Inventory") |
06 | local deb = false |
07 | script.Parent.MouseButton1Click:connect(function() |
08 | if not deb and player:WaitForDataReady() then |
09 | deb = true |
10 | script.Parent.Text = "Saving..." |
11 | creditSaves:SetAsync(player.Name.." credits", credits) |
12 | for saveInv = 1, 8 do |
13 | if inv then |
14 | saveSlot = inv:FindFirstChild("Slot"..saveInv) |
15 | if saveSlot then |

I put that script in a regular script and doesn't work, Do I put n a local script? epicfatcookie 0 — 10y

No, it's supposed to be in a regular script. I noted that the script was made if it were in a TextButton, in a ScreenGui, in StarterGui. Unless you didn't put it in that order, or I made a mistake, then it should work. bobafett3544 198 — 10y
