Save local data changes

[fading niche]

I have this script, where it changes the value of my leaderstats.Wins and hiddenData.unlockedWorld, but because it's a LocalScript, it doesnt save when I leave. I've tried multiple methods such as ReplicatedStorage etc.. but nothing worked, the data always gets reset. Can anybody help?

confirm.MouseButton1Up:Connect(function()
    if wins.Value >= Cost then
        unlockedWorld.Value = worldToBeUnlocked
        wins.Value = wins.Value - Cost
        mainFrame.Visible = false
        -- update gui
        local PlayerGui = Player.PlayerGui.ScreenGui
        local winGui = PlayerGui.Wins
        winGui.Text = "🏆 WINS: " .. wins.Value
    end
end)

remote event

[fading niche]

I tried setting it Async using a remote event in replicated storage paired with a script in serverscriptservice

local ReplicatedStorage = game:GetService("ReplicatedStorage")
local DataStoreService = game:GetService("DataStoreService")

local winDataStore = DataStoreService:GetDataStore("PlayerWins") -- DataStore initialisieren
local saveLocalData = ReplicatedStorage:WaitForChild("SaveLocalData") -- RemoteEvent laden

saveLocalData.OnServerEvent:Connect(function(player, value)
    if typeof(value) == "number" then -- Überprüfe, ob die Daten valide sind

        local success, errorMessage = pcall(function()
            winDataStore:SetAsync(player.UserId, value)
        end)

        if success then
            print("Daten erfolgreich gespeichert!")
        else
            warn("Fehler beim Speichern der Daten:", errorMessage)
        end
    else
        warn("Ungültige Daten vom Spieler:", player.Name)
    end
end)

and then within the LocalScript this:

-- save data
        local replicatedStorage = game:GetService("ReplicatedStorage")
        local saveLocalData = replicatedStorage:WaitForChild("SaveLocalData")
        saveLocalData:FireServer(Player.leaderstats.Wins.Value)```

but it didnt work

Man

Don't save every damn time

And don't trust client at all

So don't save anything client sends

[fathom bramble]

You have to update the values on the server.

DataStore only saves changes done on the server side, not the client.

[waxen stump]

need to make sure data isnt lost 🙏

[young sparrow]

He done that tho. He remotes the value

Altho it's defo bad take tho

[fathom bramble]

Can you tell me what the scripts say? I can't read them rn.

If it's fine with you

[young sparrow]

He's just remoting leaderstats.Wins.Value to server and saving it on server

Every time it sends..

[waxen stump]

yes save should be made like every 1-5 minutes, when player leaves and when server closes

from there no more

[fathom bramble]

He didn't show the saving data script?

So basically, when the player purchases the door to the next world, the LocalScript removes Wins (the cost for the door) from him and adds 1 to the players World Value. Then it fires a Remote to SetAsync Wins and World

[fathom bramble]

I can't read them rn.

[fathom bramble]

None of the changes made by the local script are seen by the server.

You have to make this change on the server instead.

[fading niche]

Yes, that's why I added a Remote Event that SetAsnyc those values so it can be sent to the server side

I can try tho to edit the values on a server sided script

The problem is, currently, my confirmation button for the purchase, which edits the values, works without specifiyng, which one of the 5 doors on my server should be bought.

However, if I put it on the server side, I would have to specify in detail which world will be unlocked, which will increase the functions size by like 5x

It's hard to explain

[young sparrow]

Buddy

U need to rewrite all your shit

1. Mousebutton1up doesn't work in server script

.

[fading niche]

What should I do instead

[young sparrow]

!

U are saving stuff on client

Rewrite all

[fading niche]

Idk what to change because what I tried in this thread is all I know lol.

[amber kettle]

** You are now Level 2! **

[fading niche]

If I rewrite it it's gonna be exactly the same bcs i dont know how to do it another way

I guess i'll try with a click detector then idk

[young sparrow]

That's not the point

U supposed to not do shit on client

U changing wins on client

Never fucking do that

[fathom bramble]

Inputs are only registered on client.

Unless Im stupid

You have to use remotes to communicate when the button is pressed.

Now I will be busy so others will have to help you.

[fading niche]

I already tried to SetAsync the Wins to the server using remote.

I know that changing the wins on local is bad

so i tried to do it server side using remote

[fading niche]

Alright. I will try to recode it and use a recoded remote to change it then?

[young sparrow]

What

U supposed to not keep things on client

At damn all

U gonna increase wins and do checks on server

And not on client

[fading niche]

Yea I understand but then how am I gonna do the gui and wall unlocking thing

The unlocking of walls/gates has a confirmation gui which is client sided, that's my issue rn because idk how connect that with the checks and wins-changed on the server side

[prime tulip]

dms

[young sparrow]

Tf u doing

[young sparrow]

Remote function

Its like remote but can return

So when player tries to buy

It fires remote function

Server checks if has coins etc then returns true

And client removed the wall

[fading niche]
