I have a data Store, but why wont it work?
---Important Things---
So I have a LeaderBoard and a Data Store that seems to not work with the LeaderBoard, but why? What went wrong in the scripts?
---Locations--- -TheData Store Script is in the ServerScriptService. -The Leaderboard is in the ServerScriptService.
---LeaderBoard (Working)---
01 | game.Players.PlayerAdded:connect(function(p) |
02 | local stats = Instance.new("IntValue", p) |
03 | stats.Name = "leaderstats" |
04 | local cash = Instance.new("IntValue", stats) |
05 | cash.Name = "Cash" |
06 | cash.Value = 0 |
07 | while true do |
08 | wait(30) |
09 | cash.Value = cash.Value + 50 |
10 | end |
11 | end) |
---Data Store(Not Working)---
01 | local DSService = game:GetService("DataStoreService"):GetDataStore("vincentthecat1") |
02 | game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(Plr) |
03 |
04 | local uniquekey = 'id-'..Plr.userid |
05 | local LeaderBoard = Instance.new('IntValue',Plr) |
06 | local savevalue = Instance.new('IntValue') |
07 | LeaderBoard.Name = 'LeaderBoard' |
08 | savevalue.Parent = LeaderBoard |
09 | savevalue.Name = 'Cash' |
10 | end) |

I do not see any effort to save or get data. Read up: https://developer.roblox.com/en-us/articles/Data-store Shawnyg 4330 — 5y

Lacking critical information, making it very hard, if not impossible to fix your script. SCP774 191 — 5y

I don't see any way you are saving data
if you wanted to save a data you either do :SetAsync or :UpdateAsync
for example
01 | local DataStoreService = game:GetService("DataStoreService") |
02 |
03 |
04 | game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(Player) |
05 | local Intvalue = Instance.new("IntValue") |
06 | Intvalue.Value = DataStoreService:GetAsync(Player.UserId) --To Get Whatever data you saved |
07 | Intvalue.Parent = workspace |
08 | Intvalue.Name = Player.UserId |
09 | end) |
10 |
11 |
12 | game.Players.PlayerRemoving:Connect(function(Player) |
13 | local ValueToSave = game.Workspace[Player.UserId] |
14 |
15 | ValueToSave:SetAsync(DataStoreService,Player.UserId) |
16 | end) |
