Problems with number values?
01 | DS = game:GetService("DataStoreService") |
02 | MaxKi = DS:GetDataStore("kiMaxSave") |
03 | game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(plr) |
04 | print(plr.Name.."has joined the game") |
05 | local stats = Instance.new("Folder", plr) |
06 | stats.Name = "Stats" |
07 | KiMax = Instance.new("NumberValue", stats) |
08 | KiMax.Name = "KiMax" |
09 | KiMax.Value = MaxKi:GetAsync(plr.UserId) or 0 |
10 | KiValue = Instance.new("NumberValue", stats) |
11 | KiValue.Name = "KiValue" |
12 | KiValue.Value = KiMax.Value |
13 | KiMax.Value.Changed:Connect(function() |
14 | MaxKi:SetAsync(plr.UserId, KiMax) |
15 | end) |
16 | end) |
I've made this and it says
1 | 18:14:38.674 - ServerScriptService.Script:13: attempt to index field 'Value' (a number value) |
as an error.

.Changed is an event of Instance, but you used it on the actual value of the instance, which is a number.
01 | DS = game:GetService("DataStoreService") |
02 | MaxKi = DS:GetDataStore("kiMaxSave") |
03 | game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(plr) |
04 | print(plr.Name.."has joined the game") |
05 | local stats = Instance.new("Folder") --second argument of .new() deprecated |
06 | stats.Name = "Stats" |
07 | stats.Parent = plr |
08 | KiMax = Instance.new("NumberValue", stats) |
09 | KiMax.Name = "KiMax" |
10 | KiMax.Value = MaxKi:GetAsync(plr.UserId) or 0 |
11 | KiValue = Instance.new("NumberValue", stats) |
12 | KiValue.Name = "KiValue" |
13 | KiValue.Value = KiMax.Value |
14 | KiMax.Changed:Connect(function() |
15 | MaxKi:SetAsync(plr.UserId, KiMax) |
16 | end) |
17 | end) |
Here's another example of using the event:
1 | game:GetService("Players").PlayerAdded:Connect(function(plr) |
2 | local IntValue = Instance.new("IntValue") |
3 | IntValue.Parent = plr |
4 | IntValue.Changed:Connect(function(property) |
5 | print(property) |
6 | end) |
7 | wait(3) |
8 | IntValue.Value = 5 --will print the name of the property changed - "Value" |
9 | end) |

yes, .Changed is called on the actual object, not the object's value Gey4Jesus69 2705 — 6y

As he stated, .Changed is looking for changes in the Value of an instance, so since it already looks to the value theres no need to reference it directly. DinozCreates 1070 — 6y
