Datastore won't load ?
I'm following a tutorial I found in the RBLX forums but for some reason I can't get the save to load? Can anyone show me what i'm doing wrong and and a method on how to correct it?
Also I was wondering what are some ways i can switch from the unreliable "Save on Remove" to a system that saves every 60 seconds?
01 | saveAs = "LS" |
02 |
03 | dataStore = game:GetService("DataStoreService"):GetDataStore(saveAs) |
04 |
05 | game.Players.PlayerRemoving:connect(function(player) |
06 | player:WaitForDataReady() --To load stuff |
07 | wait(1) --In case of crash and prevent being homeless |
08 | stats = player["leaderstats"]:GetChildren() --Change "leaderstats" to your stats |
09 | for i = 1, #stats do --Creates a loop for every stats |
10 | dataStore:SetAsync(stats[i].Name, stats[i].Value .. player.userId) |
11 | end |
12 | end) |
13 |
14 | game.Players.PlayerAdded:connect(function(player) |
15 | player:WaitForDataReady() --To load stuff |

On line 10, your key looks like it's misplaced:
01 | saveAs = "LS" |
02 |
03 | dataStore = game:GetService("DataStoreService"):GetDataStore(saveAs) |
04 |
05 | game.Players.PlayerRemoving:connect(function(player) |
06 | player:WaitForDataReady() --To load stuff |
07 | wait(1) --In case of crash and prevent being homeless |
08 | stats = player["leaderstats"]:GetChildren() --Change "leaderstats" to your stats |
09 | for i = 1, #stats do --Creates a loop for every stats |
10 | dataStore:SetAsync(stats[i].Name .. player.userId, stats[i].Value) |
11 | end |
12 | end) |
13 |
14 | game.Players.PlayerAdded:connect(function(player) |
15 | player:WaitForDataReady() --To load stuff |

As for saving every 60 seconds, just set up a loop that runs and saves the data of every player every minute.
01 | saveAs = "LS" |
02 |
03 | dataStore = game:GetService("DataStoreService"):GetDataStore(saveAs) |
04 |
05 | game.Players.PlayerAdded:connect(function(player) |
06 | player:WaitForDataReady() --To load stuff |
07 | wait(1) --In case of crash and prevent being homeless |
08 | stats = player["leaderstats"]:GetChildren() --Change "leaderstats" to your stats |
09 | for i = 1, #stats do --Creates a loop for every stats |
10 | stats[i].Value = dataStore:GetAsync(stats[i].Name .. player.userId) |
11 | end |
12 | end) |
13 |
14 | while wait(60) do |
15 | for _, player in pairs(game.Players:GetChildren() do |
