Nevermind it was an issue in one of my other scripts, I fixed it.

To add it to your current game you need code that handles data migration to the new system, it will not be plug and play. It handles big games extremely well, many times better than basic data stores. You can store tons of data very efficiently

make sure StudioAccessToAPIs is enabled in GameSettings and security. Then look for errors

@Rileybytes I did that already, maybe I just typed it wrong I guess

you're welcome!

Looks like we answered your question in my discord server! For anyone reading this comment, here's the answer: Yes you use it for everything! Instead of saving a numerical value, you save a table with data about the sword. We went over this in the video a little bit, but in case you missed it here is what you can store: - numbers - tables - strings - booleans - roblox data types (vector3, cframe, etc) - nil You CANNOT store: - functions - metatables - instances - userdata types

Thanks for watching! This is a great suggestion, and one which will most likely take multiple episodes, but highly needed!

i forgot to cut that out 💀

This requires a data store. you need to save the data with something like profile store - the thing in this video

@ this is the answer! use the scripts from the video with your system and it will save the data

You’re welcome!!

Thanks for stopping by again! I hope you liked the tutorial

@@murilogamerzao_ofc you can replace Fusion with the normal Roblox event listeners and it will work the same! Fusion isn’t necessary for this

@@Rileybytes i change it For Roblox Event listeners But About The Buttons The Button animation Is Wrong When The Mouse Leave In The Pet simulator The Press Animation Stop But The Button Stays Small Until You Release The Mouse button But i Am 11 Months late

@ yep I got those two backward but it’s an easy fix for anyone to use and it’s such a tiny error it doesn’t really matter

@@Unbocused that’s actually my next planned video. Stay tuned!

@@AnonymousWatcherAmigo Samson G-Track Pro. However using EQ can make almost any mic sound good

@@Rileybytes alright thanks!

@@koainanis5840 thank you!

@@setmini_gamingwitjcamera7673 you’ll want a local script in a GUI. Connect to the UpdateGold (or coins) remote event and change the text label to be the new number

@@Donpa07 nope! ProfileStore is completely free and open source. I don’t get any cut from making this video, I just wanted to share this great resource

@@Donpa07 if you were referring to a cut from Developer Products, the only percentage is what Roblox takes out of the purchase. ProfileStore doesn’t make any money, it’s all free

thankyou for your information. what i mean by cut percentage is like the ProfileStore creator get some of the robux when someone purchase it. but as you explain it seems not the case

@RoboGameOfficial I’ll have to look into that, I’ve never heard of Sera before

Thank you zawg! he sets a real high bar

Thank you so much bro! You just made my day. I just released a Part 2 if you're interested! It's on Developer Products via ProfileStore, since that's a very common problem for developers

Thank you for commenting! The remotes in this tutorial are either Server -> Client (secure), or Client -> Server (and we go over how to secure them). Should I make a video on how to secure remote events better?

@@Rileybytes Yes, you should do it from the beginner techniques all the way to putting your game in a actor. Also you should go over obfuscation, that is useful too. Keep up the good work!

Great question! The reason I use remotes is to trigger the Purchase Popup, which I do from the server. I do that as a matter of personal preference, although you can always just prompt the purchase from the Client. Keeping it all serverside on the ProductManager isolates it all to one script, which I find beneficial. To your second point, I would recommend reading this section from Roblox's docs on PromptProductPurchaseFinished (the event you listen to): create.roblox.com/docs/reference/engine/classes/MarketplaceService#PromptProductPurchaseFinished Roblox recommends NOT using this event to handle purchase granting, since it can fail for a number of reasons (listed in the docs) and is otherwise less reliable. If you'd like to not use remotes, you can trigger the Product Popups client-side in the local script, and still set up the ProcessReceipt callback from this tutorial normally! I would recommend following my process since I personally like it best.

@ thanks for answering man, i’ll be using process receipt now

Yes that is a great idea! Typically formats for storing item data / backpack tools can differ widely, so if I make a tutorial on it each viewer would need to slightly tweak it to fit their systems. It's a very similar process to ProfileService, but ProfileStore makes it easier to set up item trading and gifting. Would you be interested in that? Also, do you need to save just Tools from the backpack, or do you also have custom items that aren't tools? (Like materials, armor, etc for a survival game?)

@@Rileybytes Please include custom items in the tutorial if you do make a video on storing item data.

@@Rileybytes yes id be interested, and no i only need to know how to save tools from the backpack/character.

@@Rileybytes It would be good to make a video covering the storage of items, be it inventory, boosts, pets, cards, units, etc. just the logic of storing certain things

@@zKalmark okay I’ll throw in multiple types of item storage! Seems like there’s a need for all of them

I'm so glad to hear that, it's legit saved me countless hours of scripting! Thank you for commenting!

Thank you bro, glad to have you here <3 gotta give the people what they want! I'm aiming for one video each week from now on.

@@Rileybytes that is perfect goodluck!

I might be misunderstanding your question, so let me know if I am. Here's my idea: You're trying to display the name of a player's currently equipped skill on their GUI. When they deselect the skill, you want it to remove the name. It also sounds like you're creating a custom hotbar to manage skills, instead of Roblox's default hotbar. You need to save the currently equipped slots and what they have in the player's Profile, so the player still has skills equipped when they leave/rejoin. Use a RemoteEvent to tell the server when/what the changes to the hotbar are, add some basic sanity checks for security, and save the current hotbar into the Profile. Changes to skill hotbars can be left to the client - there's not much room for exploits. Just also check which skill the player is currently holding, and if the player is allowed to use it. You can make the changes on the client and let the server know. If someone's exploiting, it will only break for them! The server just needs a copy of the changes to verify and save.

God bless brother! The nice part is once you create these scripts once, you can just copy/paste into every new project. Countless hours saved!

@@Lightning_Ware you actually don’t need any data stores to do badges! The BadgeService has a function to check if a player owns a badge or not.

@@Rileybytes oh ok, but i have a problem, when i press the purchase button it just does not add the values to the leaderstats and the output also says this : ServerScriptService.Libraries.ProfileStore:1083: attempt to index nil with 'session_token' how do i fix it?

@V1per1Real that would be good! Thanks for the suggestion

@@yarik_superpro if you’re worried about backdoors, you can easily read the entire source code. It’s open-source, and no sketchy business. Not only that, but Loleris the creator is one of the most well-known, widely respected developers on Roblox! Thousands of games have used this module and its predecessor over the years.

@@yarik_superpro I hope you decide to give it a shot! This one’s worth it

@@kwinten thank you so much man!! I’m glad I can helpful for you!

yes lets use like 100hours to make good datastore

@@murilogamerzao_ofc thanks for commenting!

thank you!

30 character slots is a lot! Even large MMOs like WoW usually capped players at 10 per realm, and they had the luxury of storing data on the Client's hard drive. For an MMO, ProfileStore itself is going to greatly benefit you. It's blazing fast, even in servers with tons of players, and super efficient with API calls. You'll be able to implement complicated player-to-player features (e.g. trading, gifting, mail) much easier with ProfileStore than by trying to create your own datastore solution. A profile's data limit is roughly 4,000,000 characters, the same as a regular key in a Data Store. For your use case, I would probably create a unique profile for each character slot when a player creates a new character. Also, I would have a player profile that contains the keys of all the character slots and other data you need for the entire account, totaling 31 profiles max. Don't create the additional profiles unless a player creates a new character! You can limit your DataStore use. If you have any other questions, feel free to join my discord server!

@@Rileybytes Thanks a lot, this is what i had in mind pretty much. Yeah i also had plans for trading. I had made a global notification system that allowed you to invite player on your character slot to play a coop rather than solo (since its a skyblock mmorpg). I struggled a lot due to the rate limiting to update notifications on client, kind of a pain. I managed to find a way around but i might just completely overhaul it with profileStore.

@@iamsylr That sounds very intriguing... ProfileStore's messaging system will for sure be a help there. If you'd like to join my discord server, I'd be interested to know more about your process and progress with this!

@@Kalmatizer thank you!! I’m glad it helped!

@radioactive5053 yes there are a couple of methods! They use ProfileStores advanced Messaging system. It’s something i’m going to make another tutorial on, since it’s pretty in-depth. The tutorial will cover player trading and gifting, even when players aren’t online

​@@Rileybytes sounds great!
