how would i save colours for multiple parts and multiple houses?
i want to save colours for multiple houses and each house has multiple houses how would i save them? i know how to save them the long way so like
--when player leaves--
local colourdatastore =game:GetService("DataStoreService"):GetDataStore("Colour")
colourdatastore:SetAsync(player.UserId..":wallcolour:")
--when player enters--
local getwallcolour= colourdatastore:GetAsync(player.userId..":WallColour")
if wallcolour == nil then
wallcolour.Value = Brickcolor.new("Black")
else
wallcolour.Value = getwallcolour
end
iis there a easier way to save them? because the way i know will take a long time and alot of space, anything will be great TY.

Use a table to store them. DinozCreates 1070 — 5y

I dont understand your point, using a table would still be much more efficient. You could save every house and every color into one table, and only require 1 data store. DinozCreates 1070 — 5y

Hopefully this is more or less what you were looking for, the way I structured it you'd either have to make the strings here or child them in a folder and clone them into the player.
local colourdatastore =game:GetService("DataStoreService"):GetDataStore("Colour")
function savefiles(player)
local SaveTable = {
wallcolor1 = player.House1.wallcolor1.Value,
wallcolor2 = player.House1.wallcolor2.Value,
wallcolor3 = player.House1.wallcolor3.Value,
wallcolor4 = player.House1.wallcolor4.Value
}
return SaveTable
end
local save = savefiles(player)
local H1 = player.House1
local saved = colourdatastore:GetAsync(player.userId)
game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(player)--load players info
function loadsave(player, save)
H1.wallcolor1.Value = saved.wallcolor1
H1.wallcolor2.Value = saved.wallcolor2
H1.wallcolor3.Value = saved.wallcolor3
H1.wallcolor4.Value = saved.wallcolor4
end
function pullthedata()
--this is where you'll need to make something to grab the color values from the strings and convert the brick color into corresponding color
end
end)
function savefunc(player)
colourdatastore:SetAsync(player.userId,save)
end
game.Players.PlayerRemoving:Connect(savefunc)--save players info on d/c
