Datastore problem in a textbutton

[lime shale]

SCRIPT WITHOUT DATASTORE (That works):
local player = game.Players.LocalPlayer
local stats = player:WaitForChild("leaderstats")
local staf = player:WaitForChild("Stats")
local currency = stats:WaitForChild("Evolution")
local boostCurrency = stats:WaitForChild("Mutation")
local resetStats = {staf:WaitForChild("Money"), staf:WaitForChild("Multi"), staf:WaitForChild("Rebirth"), staf:WaitForChild("UltraRebirth"), staf:WaitForChild("Prestige"), staf:WaitForChild("UltraPrestige"), staf:WaitForChild("Hyper")}
local button = script.Parent

button.MouseButton1Click:Connect(function()
local cost = 100 + (boostCurrency.Value * 10)
if currency.Value >= cost then
currency.Value = currency.Value - cost
boostCurrency.Value = boostCurrency.Value + math.floor(currency.Value / cost)
for _, stat in pairs(resetStats) do
stat.Value = 0
end
else
print("Not enough Evolution to purchase boost.")
end
end)

SCRIPT WITH DATASTORE (that doesnt work):
local player = game.Players.LocalPlayer
local stats = player:WaitForChild("leaderstats")
local staf = player:WaitForChild("Stats")
local currency = stats:WaitForChild("Evolution")
local boostCurrency = stats:WaitForChild("Mutation")
local resetStats = {staf:WaitForChild("Money"), staf:WaitForChild("Multi"), staf:WaitForChild("Rebirth"), staf:WaitForChild("UltraRebirth"), staf:WaitForChild("Prestige"), staf:WaitForChild("UltraPrestige"), staf:WaitForChild("Hyper")}
local button = script.Parent

local dataStore = game:GetService("DataStoreService"):GetDataStore("EvolutionDataStore")

-- Load player data
dataStore:GetAsync(player.UserId):andThen(function(data)
if data then
currency.Value = data.Evolution
boostCurrency.Value = data.Mutation
else
dataStore:SetAsync(player.UserId, {Evolution = 0, Mutation = 0})
end
end)

button.MouseButton1Click:Connect(function()
local cost = 100 + (boostCurrency.Value * 10)
if currency.Value >= cost then
currency.Value = currency.Value - cost
boostCurrency.Value = boostCurrency.Value + 1
for _, stat in pairs(resetStats) do
stat.Value = 0
end
dataStore:SetAsync(player.UserId, {Evolution = currency.Value, Mutation = boostCurrency.Value})
else
print("Not enough Evolution to purchase boost.")
end
end)

DataStore doesnt work for local script i think

[cobalt horizon]

First Fix you leaderstats

Move
Folder.Name = "leaderstats"
To last currency

So Leaderstats folder will appear when all values loaded

So, you don't need add WaitForChild except for leaderstats

And use Datastore inside leaderstats script

[lime shale]

I use datastore inside leaderstats script, but if i get the mutation from the textbutton then leave, it wont save, but if i gave myself mutation they save

Basically, without the datastore in the script, if i get Mutation with the textbutton and then i go "server" and open the folder "leaderstats" and i go in "mutation" i will see still 0 instead of the amount i bought from the textbutton, but in the leaderboard of the top right i will see the amount i bought from the button
