My data store saving does not work, what do I do? [closed]

Asked by

So I was using alvinblox's tutorial on how to make a simulator part 3, and I did the data store but when I join the game on roblox and get the numbers to what I want and then rejoin, it didn't save. Heres the code:

local serverStorage = game:GetService("ServerStorage")
local DataStore = game:GetService("DataStoreService"):GetDataStore("PlayerSave3")

game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(player)

    local leaderstats = Instance.new("Folder")
    leaderstats.Name = "leaderstats"
    leaderstats.Parent = player

    local intelligence = Instance.new("NumberValue")
    intelligence.Name = "Intelligence"
    intelligence.Parent = leaderstats

    local rebirths = Instance.new("IntValue")
    rebirths.Name = "Rebirths"
    rebirths.Parent = leaderstats

    local dataFolder = Instance.new("Folder")
    dataFolder.Name = player.Name
    dataFolder.Parent = serverStorage.RemoteData

    local debounce = Instance.new("BoolValue")
    debounce.Name = "Debounce"
    debounce.Parent = dataFolder

    local intelligenceData, rebirthsData

    local success,errormessage = pcall(function()
        intelligenceData = DataStore:GetAsync("intelligence-"..player.UserId)
        rebirthsData = DataStore:GetAsync("rebirths-"..player.UserId)
    end)

    if success then
        if intelligenceData then
            intelligence.Value = intelligenceData
            rebirths.Value = rebirthsData
        end
    end

end)

game.Players.PlayerRemoving:Connect(function(player)
    local success, errormessage = pcall(function()
        DataStore:SetSync("intelligence-"..player.UserId,player.leaderstats.Intelligence.Value)
        DataStore:SetSync("rebirths-"..player.UserId,player.leaderstats.Rebirths.Value)
    end)
end)

What is wrong here? [I did not add the size as I don't want that.]

You should put any errors you have next time, but I think I see the problem anyways.

game.Players.PlayerRemoving:Connect(function(player)
    local success, errormessage = pcall(function()
            DataStore:SetSync("intelligence-"..player.UserId,player.leaderstats.Intelligence.Value)
            DataStore:SetSync("rebirths-"..player.UserId,player.leaderstats.Rebirths.Value)
    end)
end)

DataStore:SetSync() does not exist as a real function. What you're looking for is DataStore:SetAsync()

game.Players.PlayerRemoving:Connect(function(player)
    local success, errormessage = pcall(function()
            DataStore:SetAsync("intelligence-"..player.UserId,player.leaderstats.Intelligence.Value)
            DataStore:SetAsync("rebirths-"..player.UserId,player.leaderstats.Rebirths.Value)
    end)
end)
