I've been working on this save system for a few hours however for some reason it throws me the error of "19:38:14.934 - ServerScriptService.playerHandler:43: attempt to index local 'part' (a nil value)" Hoping somebody will know why Here is the script:
local players = game:GetService("Players")
local datastoreService = game:GetService("DataStoreService")
local saveDataStore = datastoreService:GetDataStore("SaveDataTest")
local function savePlayerData(player)
local success,err = pcall(function()
local savedata = {}
for _,stat in pairs(player.leaderstats:GetChildren()) do
savedata[stat.Name] = stat.Value
end
saveDataStore:SetAsync(player.UserId,savedata)
end)
if not success then return err end
end
players.PlayerAdded:connect(function(player)
local stats = Instance.new("IntValue")
stats.Name = "leaderstats"
stats.Parent = player
local stage = Instance.new("IntValue")
stage.Name = "Stage"
stage.Parent = stats
local data = saveDataStore:GetAsync(player.UserId)
if data then
print(data.Stage)
for _,stat in pairs(stats:GetChildren()) do
stat.Value = data[stat.Name]
end
else
print(player.Name .. " has no data")
end
player.CharacterAdded:connect(function(char)
local hum,hrp = char:WaitForChild("Humanoid"),char:waitForChild("HumanoidRootPart")
wait()
if hum and hrp then
if stage.Value ~= 0 then
local part = workspace.obbyStages:FindFirstChild(stage.Name)
hrp.CFrame = part.CFrame + Vector3.new(0,1,0)
end
end
end)
end)
players.PlayerRemoving:connect(function(player)
local err = savePlayerData(player)
if err then print(err) end
end)
game:BindToClose(function()
for _,plr in pairs(players:GetPlayers()) do
local err = savePlayerData(player)
if err then print(err) end
end
wait(2)
end)

i'll try thank you
i mean that stopped the original error but now it throws the error " 16:59:21.817 - ServerScriptService.playerHandler:45: attempt to index local 'part' (a nil value)"
In line 42, you find the stage in workspace, but you're using the IntValue NAME. Change that to local part = workspace.obbyStages:FindFirstChild(stage.Value)
