I've recently run into trouble with how to add a players in game cash in a local variable. The data will add, and the players cash will go up, but it wont save the added data in local scripts, only normal scripts. How could I accomplish this?

How can I add to a players data store value in a local script?

It is usually bad practice to change player data using local scripts, but one of the ways you could do it is fire a remote event to a server script, then add the data, but I don't know how to add it locally.

I would also like to clarify that I've already created the data store thing! I just need help being able to add a players data of it in a local variable.
Datastores are serversided, you cannot do this locally. You have to send information from the client to the server using remote events or remote functions.
It's not possible locally. The data saves to the serverside.
