How do I put these into a table?

Asked 228 views1 answers

I have two script which saves data and I've been told that I can not save multiple datas. How do I put them together then?

script one

local datastore = game:GetService("DataStoreService")
local ds1 = datastore:GetDataStore("CompleteSaveSystem")
local ds2 = datastore:GetDataStore("TTSaveSystem")

game.Players.PlayerAdded:connect(function(plr)
 local folder = Instance.new("Folder", plr)
 folder.Name = "leaderstats"
 local Complete = Instance.new("IntValue", folder)
 Complete.Name = "Completes"
 local TT = Instance.new("IntValue", folder)
 TT.Name = "Tree Tokens"

 Complete.Value = ds1:GetAsync(plr.UserId) or 0
 ds1:SetAsync(plr.UserId, Complete.Value)

 TT.Value = ds2:GetAsync(plr.UserId) or 0
 ds2:SetAsync(plr.UserId, TT.Value)

 Complete.Changed:connect(function()
  ds1:SetAsync(plr.UserId, Complete.Value)
 end)

 TT.Changed:connect(function()
  ds2:SetAsync(plr.UserId, TT.Value)
 end)
end)

second:

local Players = game:GetService("Players")
local DataStoreService = game:GetService("DataStoreService") -- Getting data store service

Players.PlayerAdded:connect(function(player)
    local TrackersData = DataStoreService:GetDataStore(player.UserId.."Trackers") -- Getting data store
    local LevelTracker = Instance.new("Folder")
    LevelTracker.Parent = player
    LevelTracker.Name = "LevelTracker"
    local Level1 = Instance.new("BoolValue")
    Level1.Parent = LevelTracker
    Level1.Name = "Level1"
    Level1.Value = false
    local Value = TrackersData:GetAsync("Level1") -- Getting value from data store "TrackersData"
    if Value == nil then
       TrackersData:SetAsync("Level1",false) -- if value equals nothing then it'll creates it.
    else
       Level1.Value = Value
    end
end)

I don't really understand what you exactly want, but I will explain something to you.

For databases, you can actually save more than 1 data value there.

I will show you on your first script.

local datastore = game:GetService("DataStoreService")
local ds = datastore:GetDataStore("CompleteAndTT") --Only 1 datastore

game.Players.PlayerAdded:connect(function(plr)
 local folder = Instance.new("Folder", plr)
 folder.Name = "leaderstats"
 local Complete = Instance.new("IntValue", folder)
 Complete.Name = "Completes"
 local TT = Instance.new("IntValue", folder)
 TT.Name = "Tree Tokens"

 local data = ds:GetAsync(plr.UserId) --Gets data

 if data then --Checks if there is data for that player
  Complete.Value = data[1] --Get's first data from the ds
  TT.Value = data[2] --Second data
 else --No data
  Complete.Value = 0
  TT.Value = 0
 end

 ds:SetAsync(plr.UserId, {Complete.Value,TT.Value}) --Saves 2 datas

--Now let's do some high-level scripting
 for i, child in pairs(folder:GetChildren()) do --Gets all the values
  child.Changed:connect(function() --If any of them changed
   ds:SetAsync(plr.UserId, {Complete.Value,TT.Value}) --Saves 2 datas
  end)
 end
end)

Let me know if you have more questions

Tables is always the way to go when saving multiple values.

Why won't the second script load the datas then?
