Why my second value from leaderstats is not saving?

Asked 88 views1 answers

I want to save 2 int values, the first one is saving, everything is fine but when i try to save the second one is not saving at all.

I looked on google for a fix, i modified the whole script as i found online and is still not working

Here is the code:

local DataStoreService = game:GetService("DataStoreService")
local KingPointsStore = DataStoreService:GetDataStore("KingPointsStore")
local tutorialStore = DataStoreService:GetDataStore('tutorialStore')

game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(player)

	local leaderstats = Instance.new("Folder")
	leaderstats.Name = "Stats"
	leaderstats.Parent = player

	local King = Instance.new("IntValue")
	King.Name = "KingPoints"
	King.Parent = leaderstats
	
	local tutorial = Instance.new('IntValue')
	tutorial.Name = 'Tutorial'
	tutorial.Parent = leaderstats
	tutorial.Value = 0


	local UserId = player.UserId

	local kingData
	local tutorialData

	local success, errormessage = pcall(function()
		kingData = KingPointsStore:GetAsync(UserId)
		tutorialData = tutorialStore:GetAsync(UserId)
	end)

	if success then
		King.Value = kingData
		tutorial.Value = tutorialData
	end
end)



game.Players.PlayerRemoving:Connect(function(player)
	local UserId = player.UserId
	local kingData = player.Stats.KingPoints.Value
	local tutorialData = player.Stats.Tutorial.Value

	KingPointsStore:SetAsync(UserId, kingData)
	tutorialStore:SetAsync(UserId, tutorialData)
	print('Data saved')
end)

Hello! Try this code instead:

local DSS = game:GetService("DataStoreService")
local Store = DSS:GetDataStore("StoreValues")

game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(plr)

	local leaderstats = Instance.new("Folder")
	leaderstats.Name = "leaderstats"
	leaderstats.Parent = plr

	local King = Instance.new("IntValue")
	King.Name = "KingPoints"
	King.Parent = leaderstats

	local Tutorial = Instance.new("IntValue")
	Tutorial.Name = 'Tutorial'
	Tutorial.Parent = leaderstats

	local data
	local success,err = pcall(function()
		data = Store:GetAsync(plr.UserId)
	end)
	
	if not success then
		error("Could not get player data.")
	else
		if data ~= nil then
			King.Value = data[1]
			Tutorial.Value = data[2]
		else
			warn("No data found.")
		end
	end

end)

game.Players.PlayerRemoving:Connect(function(plr)
	local data = {}
	
	data[1] = plr.leaderstats.KingPoints.Value
	data[2] = plr.leaderstats.Tutorial.Value
	
	
	Store:SetAsync(plr.UserId,data)
end)

If you want an explanation, you can ask and you shall recieve.

is still not working, could it be because i'm changing the "Tutorial" value from a local script?

Yes, that's what is causing it. The server can't read your client. You can use RemoteEvent to change the values from a server. Good luck!
