Leaderstats not saving

[limber sundial]

So my leaderstats are not saving despite me using a datastore script and i did enable api setting so it should work

-- Make sure "Enable Studio Access To API Services" is on in Game Settings! (OR IT WON'T WORK) --
local Players = game:GetService("Players")
local DataStoreService = game:GetService("DataStoreService")
local Saver = DataStoreService:GetDataStore("SaveLeaderstats")

Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(player)
local Data = nil
local success, errormessage = pcall(function()
Data = Saver:GetAsync(tostring(player.UserId))
end)

if success then
    if Data then
        for i, v in pairs(Data) do
            player:WaitForChild("leaderstats"):WaitForChild(i).Value = v
        end
    end
else
    error(errormessage)
end

end)

local function Save(player)
local SavedData = {}
for _, v in pairs(player.leaderstats:GetChildren()) do
SavedData[v.Name] = v.Value
end

local success, errormessage = pcall(function()
    Saver:SetAsync(tostring(player.UserId), SavedData)
end)
if not success then
    error(errormessage)
end

end

Players.PlayerRemoving:Connect(Save)

game:BindToClose(function()
for _, v in pairs(Players:GetPlayers()) do
Save(v)
end
end)

This is the script i use

its a free script i found on yt

    if success then
        if Data then
            for i, v in pairs(Data) do
                player:WaitForChild("leaderstats"):WaitForChild(i).Value = v
            end
        end
    else
        error(errormessage)
    end

local function Save(player)
    local SavedData = {}
    for , v in pairs(player.leaderstats:GetChildren()) do
        SavedData[v.Name] = v.Value
    end

    local success, errormessage = pcall(function()
        Saver:SetAsync(tostring(player.UserId), SavedData)
    end)
    if not success then
        error(errormessage)
    end
end

Players.PlayerRemoving:Connect(Save)

game:BindToClose(function()
    for , v in pairs(Players:GetPlayers()) do
        Save(v)
    end
end)

[limber sundial]

[wintry path]

Alright

[limber sundial]

[wintry path]

What error told you?

[limber sundial]

woerk

[teal trench]

try using profilestore instead

[limber sundial]

how

[teal trench]

[limber sundial]

[teal trench]

its better

[limber sundial]

[teal trench]

i dont know how to explain it i just watched a youtube video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m2SP_TLeWHI

[wintry path]

Hope this help

[teal trench]

and it was clearly easier

[wintry path]

There are different kind method of data saving

[brave nest]

its the same just formatted correctly

[limber sundial]

oh

[teal trench]

yeah consider it

[brave nest]

send us the script where you create leaderstats etc.

[limber sundial]

game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(player)
local leaderstats = Instance.new("Folder")
leaderstats.Name = "leaderstats"
leaderstats.Parent = player
local Rarity = Instance.new("IntValue")
Rarity.Name = "Rarity"
Rarity.Value = 0
Rarity.Parent = leaderstats
local Rolls = Instance.new("IntValue")
Rolls.Name = "Rolls"
Rolls.Value = 0
Rolls.Parent = leaderstats
end)

[limber sundial]

also this thing doesnt work

cuz of "for ,"

[brave nest]

so does it work now with fixing ts

[limber sundial]

ok i got the profilestore module

its long ag

[brave nest]

I wouldn't recommend profilestore for beginners tbf

[limber sundial]

yeah but

datastore wont work either

idk why

[teal trench]
