Datastore always getting the exact same error?
print("game might not work")
gat = "gay"
print("server-sided print...??????????? "..gat)
local DataStore = game:GetService("DataStoreService")
local data = DataStore:GetDataStore("Example")
game.Players.PlayerAdded:connect(function(player)
local leaderstat = Instance.new("Folder",player)
leaderstat.Name = "leaderstats"
local Money = Instance.new("IntValue",leaderstat)
Money.Name = "money"
Money.Value = data:GetAsync(player.UserId) or 1
data:SetAsync(player.UserId, Money.Value)
end)
game.Players.PlayerRemoving:connect(function(player)
local Money = player.leaderstats.money.Value
data:SetAsync(player.UserId, Money.Value)
end)
every time i try use it when the player leaves i always get this
ServerScriptService.Script:22: attempt to index local 'Money' (a number value) but i dont have a clue what it means...?

Your script is perfectly fine, it's just at line 22 when you're doing:
data:SetAsync(player.UserId, Money)
It goes completely wrong, because in Lua you add two strings or string and int together with ".." so it would be:
data:SetAsync(player.UserId..Money)

The reason that it is throwing an error is because in line 20 you saved the value of money in the variable Money therefore in line 22 instead of Money.Value just do Money This is a script with the changes made:
local DataStore = game:GetService("DataStoreService")
local data = DataStore:GetDataStore("Example")
game.Players.PlayerAdded:connect(function(player)
local leaderstat = Instance.new("Folder",player)
leaderstat.Name = "leaderstats"
local Money = Instance.new("IntValue",leaderstat)
Money.Name = "money"
Money.Value = data:GetAsync(player.UserId) or 1
data:SetAsync(player.UserId, Money.Value)
end)
game.Players.PlayerRemoving:connect(function(player)
local Money = player.leaderstats.money.Value
data:SetAsync(player.UserId, Money)
end)
