Player data for "leaderstats" won't save on my world, anyone know a fix?
01 | local DSServ = game:GetService("DataStoreService") |
02 | local plrServ = DSServ:GetDataStore("PlrLeaderboard") |
03 |
04 | game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(client) |
05 | local leaderstats = Instance.new("Folder") |
06 | leaderstats.Name = "leaderstats" |
07 | leaderstats.Parent = client |
08 |
09 | local cash = Instance.new("IntValue") |
10 | cash.Name = "Cash" |
11 | cash.Parent = leaderstats |
12 |
13 | end) |

This may seem like a lot, but I'm just trying to save player data to set up a currency system for a game (the world has API for Studio turned on). I made a mechanic that adds 1000 to my currency whenever I leave the game (it checks for my UserId and adds it if the current player's Id and mine match, meaning it's me). I don't know what the problem is, but it won't save the data. Please let me know what the problem is if you think you know. Thx

Maybe you don't load it once you join? Robloxian_Hero1234 14 — 5y

01 | local DataStore = game:GetService("DataStoreService") |
02 | local CashData = DataStore:GetOrderedDataStore("Cash") |
03 |
04 | game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(plr) |
05 | local Cash = CashData:GetAsync(plr.UserId) |
06 | local leaderstats = Instance.new("Folder") |
07 | leaderstats.Name = "leaderstats" |
08 | local CashValue = Instance.new("IntValue", leaderstats) |
09 | CashValue.Value = Cash |
10 | leaderstats.Parent = plr |
11 | CashValue.Name = "Cash" |
12 |
13 | end) |
14 |
15 | game.Players.PlayerRemoving:Connect(function(plr) |
16 | local Cash = plr.leaderstats.Cash.Value |
17 | CashData:SetAsync(plr.UserId,Cash) |
18 | print("Saved data") |
19 | end) |
--you can change anything called Cash to your currency

Thanks, the script worked! Btw could you explain how this all works. Do it only if you want to, just wanting to know that I understand what the code is doing. User#28017 0 — 5y

Line 8 is just for me. It for a different script. Forgot to take that out GunzerkingBeast21 -4 — 5y
