How would i make a script that saves the players position when they disconnect?
Ok so, i want to make an script that saves a players position when they disconnect from the game and when they join back, they are in the same position as they were left. Please help!
local locations = {}
while wait(1) do
for _,player in pairs(game.Players:GetChildren()) do
if player and player.Character and player.Character.Parent ~= nil then
locations[player] = player.Character.Torso.Position
end
end
end
game.Players.PlayerRemoving:connect(function(player)
local lastlocation = locations[player]
locations[player] = nil -- garbage collection
end)
I tried this but, it obviously wouldn't work. :(

local LastPositionDataStore = game:GetService("DataStoreService"):GetDataStore("LastPos")
game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(player)
player.CharacterAdded:Connect(function(char)
local HRP = char:WaitForChild("HumanoidRootPart")
HRP.Position = 0,3,0 or LastPositionDataStore:GetAsync(player.UserId) --Gets the last position of the player's HumanoidRootPart position
end)
end)
game.Players.PlayerRemoving:Connect(function(player)
local char = player.Character
local HRP = char:WaitForChild("HumanoidRootPart")
LastPositionDataStore:SetAsync(player.UserId,HRP.Position) --Saves the last position of the player's HumanoidRootPart position
end)

Hmm. I don't know why but it's not working. Do i have to test it through roblox player? (Not roblox studio?) Zripple 18 — 6y

I don't think you can get the position of a part of the player's character when they leave theking48989987 2147 — 6y
