How do I make this leaderstats script save to the Datastore?
I have a script in one of my games that handles money being given out every 5 minutes, and I need it to save to the datastore so when the player rejoins the game after buying/earning the money they keep it, instead of their money counter resetting.
The code is here to help you understand what I am talking about:
game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(Plr)
local Stats = Instance.new("Folder", Plr)
Stats.Name = "leaderstats"
local Cash = Instance.new("IntValue", Stats)
Cash.Name = "Cash"
Cash.Value = 0
local DS = game:GetService("DataStoreService")
game.Players.PlayerRemoving:Connect(function()
DS:SetAsync(Plr.userId.."_DS", Cash.Value)
end)
while true do
wait(300)
for i, v in pairs(game.Players:GetPlayers()) do
v.leaderstats.Cash.Value = v.leaderstats.Cash.Value + 100
end
end
end)
As you can see in the script above I tried getting an understanding of the Datastore service
local DS = game:GetService("DataStoreService")
game.Players.PlayerRemoving:Connect(function()
DS:SetAsync(Plr.userId.."_DS", Cash.Value)
end)
But, that did not work. Could I get some help on this?

YOU NEED TO COPY THIS ALL DOWN. SOME OF IT WONT COME UP AS A SCRIPT BUT COPY AND PASTE THIS ALL INTO A NEW SCRIPT IN SERVER SCRIPT SERVICE
local DS = game:GetService("DataStoreService"):GetDataStore("SaveData") game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(plr) wait() local plrkey ="id_"..plr.userId local save1 = plr.leaderstats.Kills
local GetSaved = DS:GetAsync(plrkey)
if GetSaved then
save1.Value = GetSaved[1]
else
local NumberForSaving = {save1.Value}
DS:GetAsync(plrkey, NumberForSaving)
end
end)
game.Players.PlayerRemoving:Connect(function(plr) DS:SetAsync("id_"..plr.userId, {plr.leaderstats.Cash.Value}) end)
