so whenever a player dies its supposed to add 1 to the player's ordereddatastore but this shows up
https://gyazo.com/b5a29f5b2b6360fc3613f12e75e2fedf
local ods = game:GetService("DataStoreService"):GetOrderedDataStore("HSKills")
local hum = script.Parent
function change()
local tag = hum:FindFirstChild("creator")
if tag ~= nil then
if tag.Value ~= nil then
local plr = game.Players[tag.Value]
ods:IncrementAsync(plr,1)
end
end
end
hum.Died:connect(change)
I haven't worked with OrderedDataStore's at all but it looks okay to me while comparing this to the wiki.
Anyways the problem on Line 8 is that its only getting the Player from the Players service. You need the name of that player or a key.
Simply on line 8:
local plr = game.Players[tag.Value].Name
I don't think you should use the Name of the player as the key since the player is able to just change his name at any time.
By the way, you can get around a lot of the errors by just searching the meaning of it on google (Usually will be lead to the forums or documented on roblox wiki).
didnt work rip

My guess is that creator is not a StringValue object but an ObjectValue. The hint? The error talks about using userdata. The value object of StringValue would be a string. You didn't tell us what the creator tag is so we cannot help you at the moment. What is the creator tag?
