Using Arrays For Data Store?
Asked by

I am in the process of developing a script that saves player data. This is a portion of how the data is loaded in when the player joins:
01 | local DataStoreService = game:GetService("DataStoreService") |
02 | local ServerData = {0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0 ,0} |
03 | local DataStore1 = DataStoreService:GetDataStore("CnsData"..version) |
04 | local DataStore2 = DataStoreService:GetDataStore("StrData"..version) |
05 | local DataSto.... (you get the point) |
07 | local DataFetchSuccess,ErrorMessage = pcall(function() |
08 | ServerData[1] = DataStore1:GetAsync(tostring(Player.UserId)) |
09 | ServerData[2] = DataStore2:GetAsync(tostring(Player.UserId)) |
10 | ServerData[3] = DataStore3:GetAsync(tostring(Player.UserId)) |
11 | ServerData[4] = DataStore4:GetAsync(tostring(Player.UserId)) |
12 | ServerData[5] = DataStore5:GetAsync(tostring(Player.UserId)) |
13 | ServerData[6] = DataStore6:GetAsync(tostring(Player.UserId)) |
14 | ServerData[7] = DataStore7:GetAsync(tostring(Player.UserId)) |
This system works fine. The data is loaded from the server into an array within the script. I would like to know if it is possible to place the data calls in an array like this:
1 | local DataStore = {DataStoreService:GetDataStore("example"..version), |
2 | DataStoreService:GetDataStore("example1"..version), ect} |
With this I would think it's possible to load the data like this:
1 | local DataFetchSuccess,ErrorMessage = pcall(function() |
3 | ServerData[i] = DataStore[i] |
This is how I originally had programmed it but nothing would save or load. Is there something I can fix to make this possible?
