I have 2 places in a game:
Players spawn in the lobby and then enter the match when a match starts. Players in the lobby and players in the match are in 2 different servers, as they belong to 2 different places. Is there a way for me to get the 2 servers to “share players”. Meaning when a player is teleported from the lobby server to the match server, we still recognise the players to still be inside the lobby server?
Do you mean teleporting only 2 players to the match place? I’m not sure I get what you mean otherwise.
No, what i mean is that when player 1 gets teleported from lobby to match, the lobby server still considers player 1 as part of it’s server.
Cross server communication is possible with this service MessagingService | Roblox Creator Documentation
You could also save a value called after the player’s username in a folder for that one server, but I’m not sure that’d be of any use.
What’s the purpose of keeping the player in the lobby after they teleported if I may ask?
I believe what you’re trying to achieve may be possible using a datastore.
Example simulation of the match server sending data to the lobby server:
The lobby server script holds the user ids / names of the players who were sent to the match server. And then there’s a loop which checks the players’ datastores for information which is uploaded via the match server script.
That’s what Messaging Service is intended for, Datastores aren’t primarily used for such things.
