Introducing Script Manager: Your Scripts, All In One Place
Hey everyone!
I’m back after a while away and wanted to share something I made to solve one of my biggest headaches in Studio - Script Manager.
Script Manager is a free plugin that lets you see all your scripts in one place. While Roblox has its own search, this gives you a cleaner, more visual way to find exactly what you need without digging through the Explorer for ages.
Main Features
See all your scripts at once: Server, Client, and ModuleScripts in a single window
Quick filters: Switch between script types with one click
Name search: Find scripts by name with matches highlighted
Content search: Find specific code inside your scripts
Categories: Group scripts by parent to clean up your view
Pinning: Keep important scripts at the top
Hiding: Temporarily hide scripts or categories you don’t need
Script info: See line counts and other details at a glance
Live updates: Changes to scripts show up automatically
Context menus! To maximize possibilities with the scripts, I’ve added a right-click context menu with options: select, open, hide, etc.
Introduced script and parent hiding via the context menu. Hide scripts that you don’t need to account for and hide libraries that you didn’t make and won’t edit. Use the dropdown menu button (hidden items) to see all hidden items and unhide them if needed.
Added a help button that tells you controls.
Refactored the content searching feature with a limit up to 100k now, and average loading times of 1.5s for ~4000 matches. (numbers have not been benchmarked, rough estimates)
Shown script paths now include the script itself as the final element so, now you can see the full path.
But I have a problem, when the plugin is installed it makes my studio very laggy (especially when stopping the playtesting), and after some time my studio become very laggy. I’m pretty sure it’s related to the plugin because if I disable it, every returns to normal.
I haven’t tested it too much in playtesting, so I’m not sure why that is happening. I’ll look into it and hopefully patch it for the next release (in 1-2 hours).
Categories! You can now “collapse” a script’s parent, which turns the script and its sibling scripts into items within that category. You don’t need to see all of your premade libraries, just that they are there. You can open categories to view them, rename them to personalize them, or uncollapse them and get everything back.
Introduced a pin system so you can pin important scripts that you’ll need often and they will always been near the top.
Redesigned the hiding system. Now, all hidden scripts go to the bottom and are greyed out so you can easily see what is hidden without it being always in your line of sight.
Added a help button so you can get controls and other info when you need it.
General bug fixes and major UI/UX improvements.
Let me know what you think about the update! And feel free to suggest or report anything. Thank you!
Based of the screenshots, it really looks clean and perfect for anyone looking for these tycoon of plugins! I am going to install it immediately and give you feedback about it when I can!
