📦 Data Store Module

The Data Store service allows you to store and retrieve data from the Game Jolt servers. This is ideal for saving game progress, user preferences, or global world data.

• key: The name of the key to fetch.

data_get_keys(require_user: bool, pattern: String = "") -> Variant

Returns a list of all the keys in a data store.

• pattern: (Optional) A string used to filter keys (e.g., "level_*").

data_remove(require_user: bool, key: String) -> Variant

Removes a key and its data from the data store.

• key: The name of the key to delete.

data_set(require_user: bool, key: String, data: String) -> Variant

Sets the data for a specific key in the data store.

• data: The string content to save. (If saving integers, convert them using str()).

data_update(require_user: bool, key: String, operation: OPERATION, value: String) -> Variant
