How do I save a DataStore in a :BindToClose() function? [Solved]
This question has been solved by the original poster.
Hello developers, I'm unsure how to save data in :BindToClose(). I've tried ways such as:
game:BindToClose(function()
local Player = game:GetService("Players"):GetPlayers()
local playerid = "Player_"..Player.UserId
local data = Player.leaderstats.deaths.Value
local success, errormessage = pcall(function()
HisDataStore:SetAsync(playerid, data)
end)
if success then
print("Data has been successfully saved!")
else
print("Data has not been saved, negative!")
warn(errormessage)
end
end)
I've tried this way but doesn't work. Gives the error 'attempt to concatenate string with nil' on the line local playerid = "Player_"..Player.UserId
I can see the mistake but I am rather confused how to fix it.

I found out the answer. I used a for loop to iterate the players.
Code:
game:BindToClose(function()
local Player = game:GetService("Players")
for _, players in pairs(Player:GetPlayers()) do
local playerid = "Player_"..players.UserId
local data = players.leaderstats.deaths.Value
local success, errormessage = pcall(function()
HisDataStore:SetAsync(playerid, data)
end)
if success then
print("Data has been successfully saved in studio!")
else
print("Data has not been saved, negative!")
warn(errormessage)
end
end
end)
