Inventory isn't being saved by table, only prints to the first line?
game.Players.PlayerRemoving:Connect(function(plr)
print("running removing")
local priorData = dataStore:GetAsync(plr.UserId)
print('loaded old data')
local dataToSave = {
['gagueStats'] = {
['gglvl'] = plr.gg.Value,
['ggxp'] = plr.ggEXP.Value,
['tp'] = plr.tp.Value,
['str'] = plr.str.Value,
['strxp'] = plr.strEXP.Value,
['int'] = plr.int.Value,
['intxp'] = plr.intEXP.Value,
['end'] = plr['end'].Value,
['ednxp'] = plr.endEXP.Value,
['dex'] = plr.dex.Value,
['dexxp'] = plr.dexEXP.Value
},
['appearanceStats'] = priorData['appearanceStats'],
['spiderwebCompletion'] = priorData['spiderwebCompletion'],
['inventory'] = {
},
['gold'] = plr.gold.Value
}
print('table created')
for i,v in pairs(plr.inv:GetChildren()) do
print(v)
table.insert(dataToSave['inventory'], i, v.Name)
end
print('inv stuff added')
dataStore:SetAsync(plr.UserId, dataToSave)
print('saved')
end)
The goal is to take everything inside a folder named "inv" inside the player and save it under the inventory table in the data table, however, when I load back into the game there are no items in my inventory except for one copy of trash when there should be two (I have a script to add it to my inventory every time I load in)
When I tried print debugging, it only printed down to "running removing" which is the first print. Why would nothing after this run? There are no errors for it either.

I've also tried testing this outside of studio, and it still didn't work itchymoonfire 179 — 3y

Update, it says attempted to index nil with GetAsync ingame when my friend left. Any ideas? itchymoonfire 179 — 3y

Try removing the i, part after ['inventory;] and before v CandyWreckEpicness 115 — 3y

You haven't declared dataStore, add a line at the top of the code saying "local dataStore = game:GetService("DataStoreService"). I'm sorry if this didn't help, haven't scripted in months :D CoinWield 47 — 3y

You could use a separate script for the inventory i suggest you creating a folder with the items in replicated storage and storing only the items name, so you can clone them and put it on player's inventory
local datastorage = game:GetService("DataStorage") -- get the service
local inventoryStorage = datastorage:GetDataStore("inventory") -- get the data store
game.Players.PlayerAdded:connect(function(plr)
local inv_save = inventoryStorage:GetAsync(plr.UserId) or {""}
-- anything you want to do with the inventory here, i don't really know how your system works
end)
game.Players.PlayerRemoving:connect(function(plr)
local items = plr.inv:GetChildren()
local stored = {}
for _,v in pairs(items) do
table.insert(stored,#stored + 1,v.Name)
end
inventoryStorage:SetAsync(plr.UserId,stored)
local functiontest1,functiontest2 = pcall(function() -- just to be sure it saved.
inventoryStorage:UpdateAsync(plr.UserId,stored)
end)
end)
