Maybe have the data in a different folder in the player and change where the leaderstats is in the script to the folder

 

Not sure what you mean by "change where the leaderstats is in the script to the folder". Not sure what you mean there.

I have a script in the workplace that creates all the variables in either the player or leaderstats, which is in player.

The code I use to save the variables is the following (I have this script placed in the workspace):

game.Players.PlayerRemoving:connect(function(p)
if p:findFirstChild("leaderstats") then
p:SaveInstance("SavedStatPNum"..tostring(game.PlaceId),p.leaderstats)
end
end)
game.Players.PlayerAdded:connect(function(p)
for k = 1, 60, 0.03 do
wait()
if p:findFirstChild("leaderstats") and p.DataReady then break end
end
local Loaded = nil
if p:findFirstChild("leaderstats") and pcall(function() Loaded = p:LoadInstance("SavedStatPNum"..tostring(game.PlaceId)) end) then
for j, v in pairs(Loaded:GetChildren()) do
pcall(function() p.leaderstats[v.Name].Value = v.Value end)
end
end
end)

It only saves the values in leaderstats, not the values in the player itself.

 

Let's say you have a folder called "Data" (in Player) and you want to save to that folder, so instead of p.leaderstats do p.Data, that's what i meant.

 

so I create a folder called data. Inside the folder I have the variables I want to save. and then in the code I shared above, replace every "leaderstats" to "data"? is that what you mean?

 

Yeah pretty much, but "Data" is whatever you name the folder

 

Ok, will try it out. Thank you so much!
