Is my console lying about data being saved?
So I'm making a datastore script and the console says the data is saving and loading. I do not understand why the data is still set to 0 when I leave and join.
local data
local success, errormessage = pcall(function()
data = myDataStore:GetAsync(player.UserId.."-robux")
end)
if success then
robux.Value = data
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()
myDataStore:SetAsync(player.UserId.."-robux",player.leaderstats.robux.Value)
end)
if success then
print("Player Data successfully saved!")
else
print("There was an error when saving data")
warn(errormessage)
end
end)

Sometimes the server script grabs the data incorrectly. I had this problem. Two solutions. 1. Make a save gui that when clicked triggers a remote event. Example LocalScript
local remote = game.ReplicatedStorage.Save
script.Parent.MouseButton1Click:Connect(function()
remote:FireServer(game.Players.LocalPlayer.Robux.Value)
end)
Server Script
local remote = game.ReplicatedStorage.Save
remote.OnServerEvent:Connect(function(plr, robux)
--Save function
end)
Solution 2 - Make a local script in playergui. A folder in workspace. Inside the folder, as many "int values" as max players for your game. A ServerScript - Example Server Script -
game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(plr)
game.Workspace.DataFolder.Value.Name = plr.Name
end)
Local Script -
while true do
wait()
game.Workspace:WaitForChild(game.Players.LocalPlayer.Name).Value = game.Players.LocalPlayer.Robux.Value
Saving Script
game.Players.PlayerRemoving:Connect(function(plr)
local save = game.Workspace.DataFolder:WaitForChild(plr.Name).Value
--Do saving stuff
