hello, I’m trying to make a plugin that stores the devs settings.
Conditions:
I have seen tabs where you have to enable an advanced view to see them
How do I store the settings into those hidden tabs?
Can you elaborate on this (examples?)
You can use plugin:SetSetting and plugin:GetSetting to store dev settings without interfering with anything in the game
This is indubitably intriguing. I will try to find more data on this conundrum.
How may I use this revolutionary feature?
-- Example
-- When the plugin runs this checks if the plugin has already previously set
-- this setting to `true`.
if plugin:GetSetting("hasRanBefore") then
-- Plugin has ran before
print("Welcome back developer!")
else
-- User is using the plugin for the first time
plugin:SetSetting("hasRanBefore", true)
end
This is another example (read the source code in the comments)
Hello I just realized that this will not be applicable to my solution. I appologize for not delving into more depth.
To specify: My plugin is meant for team collaboration. The team is able to access each other’s settings. Using plugin:GetSetting would not be accessible if another player needed that information. In the case I may have to store it as an attribute inside a hidde explorer tab.
This is what explorer looks like with hidden explorer objects enabled
Ah, I understand now. Unfortunately, I don’t believe I have a solution to your issue, apologies
I think I will store the data in a public space that tries to get out of the way such as like material service
If it needs to store data under a team-managed game, you must set an attribute.
