Player Stats Not Saving?

Asked by

I am trying to save data from a folder in replicated storage, though my script doesn't seem to work as nothing gets saved... I am not sure what I did wrong here. The code will be posted here:


local DataStoreService = game:GetService('DataStoreService')
local WeapStore = DataStoreService:GetDataStore('WeapStore')
local repStore = game:GetService('ReplicatedStorage')
local OwnedWeaps = repStore.WeapOwned

game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(player)
    local myWeaps = OwnedWeaps:Clone()
    myWeaps.Parent = player
    local dataTable = myWeaps:GetChildren()

    for _,v in pairs(dataTable) do
        print(player.UserId..v.Name)
        local data
        local success, errormessage = pcall(function()
            data = WeapStore:GetAsync(player.UserId..v.Name)
        end)
        if success then
            v.Value = data
        else
            warn(errormessage)
        end
    end
end)

game.Players.PlayerRemoving:Connect(function(player)
    local weapValueFolder = player:FindFirstChild('WeapOwned')
    local dataTable = weapValueFolder:GetChildren()

    for _,v in pairs(dataTable) do
        print(player.UserId..v.Name)
        local success, errormessage = pcall(function()
            WeapStore:SetAsync(player.UserId..v.Name, v.Value)
        end)
        if success then
            print('Weapons successfully saved!')
        else
            warn(errormessage)
        end
    end
end)

you also need to add a game:BindToClose() function to make sure to save everyone's data before the server shuts down nkminion 21 — 3y

If you are testing and you are the only one in you server, the server shuts down when you leave and the code wont run. To prevent this, add another block of code that includes this

game:BindToClose(function()
    for _, player in pairs(game.Players:GetPlayers()) do

        local Id = "player_"..player.UserId
        local Data = player.leaderstats.Cash.Value

            local success, errormessage = pcall(function()
            DataStore1:SetAsync(Id, Data)
                print("DataSaved")
            end)

        if success then
                print("DataSaved")
        elseif errormessage then
            print("There was a error")
warn(errormessage)
        end
    end
end)

Put this under your other code
