Having trouble with getting leaderstats to save, can anyone see the issue?

So for this I'm using the default roblox leaderboard. (With the deaths value changed to Ls.) Here's the code on my save script :

local datastore = game:GetService("DataStoreService")
local ds1 = datastore:GetDataStore("KillSaveSystem")
local ds2 = datastore:GetDataStore("LSaveSystem")

game.Players.PlayerAdded:connect(function(player)
    local folder = Instance.new("Folder", player)
    folder.Name = "leaderstats"
    local kills = Instance.new("IntValue", folder)
    kills.Name = "Kills"
    local ls = Instance.new("IntValue", folder)
    ls.Name = "Ls"

    kills.Value = ds1.GetAsync(player.UserId) or 0
    ds1:SetAsync(player.UserId, kills.Value)

    kills.Changed:connect(function()
    ds1:SetAsync(player.UserId, kills.Value)

    end)

    ls.Changed:connect(function()
    ds2:SetAsync(player.UserId, ls.Value)

    ls.Value = ds2.GetAsync(player.UserId) or 0
    ds2:SetAsync(player.UserId, ls.Value)

    end)
end)

Any ideas as to why it's not functioning properly?

Is leaderstats the value itself? Shouldn't the value be inside of leaderstats? Knineteen19 307 — 5y

So it would be like ls.*Insert Value Name Here*.Value instead of ls.Value, Right? Knineteen19 307 — 5y

Also you need to add a load system, right now it doesn't load when you start up, it only loads right after it saves. Make so the leaderstats thing loads like the kills does. Knineteen19 307 — 5y

So put the :GetAsync() before or after the changed event. Knineteen19 307 — 5y

its more conventional to save a table of values, rather than saving each value to a separate datastore. ie: local DataToSave = {Level, Money} Gey4Jesus69 2705 — 5y
