i saw the runtime of this and i was like, THE BASICS??? but then five minutes in - you have a knack for not skipping what is obvious to veterans. that's unbelievably helpful.

i had my first experience with profileservice recently for a medium game project, and i felt so intimidated by the complexity. Suphi's datastore module really is better than profileservice in terms of being simple for beginners and flexible for advanced users. I also appreciate how this tutorial explained every single bit of the code, not just throwing info in our faces!

This is an amazing tutorial. You can see that there went a lot of planning into it and it's so clearly structured. And I just love that. Often tutorials are a bit chaotic and don't have a clear path/goal. And although I still appreciate the time the creators put into it, one can see the advantage of having a "movie script" beforehand. Suphi explains complex facts in a great pace and very clearly.

Kudos to Suphi, probably one of the best tutorials I've ever seen on any topic.

Best datastore module out there, handles all possible scenarios and easy to use, easy to setup, and definitely helps with data management in your game making it very easy to handle. Already tried it in a game and it wasn't even the latest version and it worked perfectly ! On top of all that, it was very easy to update its version once a new version was out, and now that it's finally released, there won't be much updating required after using it which is even better !

I thought about writing my own module a couple of times, and I thought that I would encounter a lot of problems and eventually began to use ProfileService. Now I think I will use your module, I will watch this video in full before using it 😁.

[randomb_oi]

These modules and videos you have been making are amazing

I was having so much trouble with the DataStore services until I found this video by Suphi. This guy knows what he's talking about and explains it in such a way that my foolish brain can understand! Thanks so much for the explanation Suphi

[EATBADGE]

You explain really well! That like button deserves to be DESTROYED!

HELLO nice video Suphi, at the time of the video 38:09 After so many tests and errors, I prefer to use FindFirstAncestorWhichIsA, since it is a headache, when you have, for example, an armored clothing team which would be late or the parent would not decide well, or for example my user who has gold spheres all over her body on the outside and sometimes The parent shows an article, so I prefer to use the Ancestor, I hope it helps you, for me it was a headache, although it's something simple, I hope it helps you :)

i wish I found your channed earlier I am so gonna watch all of your tutorials, keep up the amazing work 🙏

[monstertrident]

I suggest more physics videos, maybe a good suggestion would be how to make a spiderman system??

[sicparvismagna]

Im currently using a lot of the modules and scripts along with plugins (Infinite Terrain) you've made and not really sure if its still my game or if its yours at this point lol 😂

[Sanchayan_Mallick]

Why do you need the find() if you can just use new() everywhere, it seems working kinda same.

[Cubo-Doodle]

I’ve been wondering about what y’all doing with the datastore thing on your discord server lol
Also W

[_k.]

this is the best tutorial for developer products on yt (that i can find) and its not really even about them LOL

[Ddbhd]

Hey I noticed you wrote if statements on a single line of code, and I was wondering if there was a specific reason for this? I don’t mean to cause any trouble I just found it a bit confusing as I’m newer to scripting.

If you can give any help I would appreciate it 👍

[itsmeklc]

Love it! WIll you upload it to a repo aswell?

[AkaObbies]

oooo this will be good ik it

i will probably use it before i even know it

[anotherdeadchannel]

Hey suphi, when you update the datastore.Value it doesn't actually setasync right?

I update this value a little often and I was worried I was making too many requests but I realized I might just be changing the local data that later gets saved to roblox servers when player leaves or game shuts down

[KraKenDevYT]

It does not work. I tried so many things, I copied the exact same scripts and it does not even give me an apple.
No errors shown in the ouptut

Edit: I found the mistake, fantastic module tought!
