DataStore Issue : Date wont save?
CustomStore = game:GetService("DataStoreService"):GetDataStore("DataStore")
function PlayerEntered(player)
local helm = Instance.new("StringValue")
helm.Parent = group
helm.Name = "Helm"
------------------------------------------------
if CustomStore:GetAsync("Helm_"..player.Name) ~= nil then
helm.Value = CustomStore:GetAsync("Helm_"..player.Name)
else
helm.Value = "Really red"
end
helm.Changed:connect(function(Val)
CustomStore:SetAsync("Helm_"..player.Name, Val)
end)
------------------------------------------------
end
game.Players.PlayerAdded:connect(PlayerEntered)
This is my script. For some reason, it creates the string value, says "Oh. it's got a value already" (changed from "Really red" to "Really blue"), But won't save NEW changes?
anyone got any ideas?

Should user player.UserId instead of player.Name because name can change but UserId can't blowup999 659 — 7y

okay, but will that change the fact that new values dont save? FrozenWinterz 50 — 7y

Sorry, that sounded rude. Thank you for your advice, i'm pretty sure that'd REALLY screw over some save files. so thanks! FrozenWinterz 50 — 7y

I don't see anything wrong with the script that would cause it to not save blowup999 659 — 7y

Did you try confirming that it's running helm.Changed with a print inside of it? blowup999 659 — 7y

local player = game.Players.LocalPlayer
function onClicked()
player.Customisations.Helm.Value = "Lime green"
end
script.Parent.MouseButton1Down:connect(onClicked)
CONTEXT This is in a LocalScript, Inside TextButton, Inside a Frame, Inside a ScreenGUI, Inside StarterGui.
