I’ve been working on a game and Data Storing has been a problem with me for a while. It might be some setting I haven’t enabled: Something so my scripts change a value then have that same changed value be saved by my Data Store. or it could also just be the Data Store script itself. The weirdest thing is that if I go into a game and use the developer console, to change the value, it saves it.
Script:
local DataStoreService = game:GetService(“DataStoreService”)
local myDataStore1 = DataStoreService:GetDataStore(“myDataStore1”)
game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(player)
local Stats = Instance.new(“Folder”)
Stats.Name = “Stats”
Stats.Parent = player
local cash = Instance.new(“IntValue”)
cash.Name = “Cash”
cash.Parent = Stats
local data
local success, errormessage = pcall(function()
data = myDataStore1:GetAsync(player.UserId…"-cash")
end)
if success then
cash.Value = data
print(“Player Data successfully loaded!”)
else
print(“There was an error whilst getting your data”)
warn(errormessage)
end
end)
game.Players.PlayerRemoving:Connect(function(player)
local success, errormessage = pcall(function()
myDataStore1:SetAsync(player.UserId…"-cash",player.Stats.Cash.Value)
end)
if success then
print(“Player Data successfully saved!”)
else
print(“There was an error when saving data”)
warn(errormessage)
end
end)
Hopefully you guys can help me! Thanks.

You did not format your code properly. Please do so. Also I am pretty sure that your datastore is not the problem. Are you trying to edit values from the client? If so that is the issue.
Thank you so much! The problem was, the script I was making change the value was a local script instead of a normal script! Rookie mistake.
