Thanks for reporting this @LordMerc. I’ve flagged it for the engineering team.

Correct me if I am wrong but are Feature Packages simply community resources which are provided by the ROBLOX team using a PackageLink?

Hi @Desiccate yes, that is correct!

Its not an extra feature, but pre-made templates, made with the options we have. #feature-requests

Thank you for the examples, @AlteFore. I will pass them along!

The provided UI is highly customizable, so if you’d like to make changes to better fit your game’s aesthetic, you can do so.

Will these automatically update in game if they (for some reason) update?

The link is in the post above: create.roblox.com/docs/en-us/resources/feature-packages/bundles. I was checking if the hierarchy of the link to see if it had a typo.

This link Templates | Documentation - Roblox Creator Hub has a

  1. Engine
  2. Resources

The above Resources above takes me to Code Samples, thought there might have been a different landing page for resources.

I’m guessing it’s either taking a little longer to update, or is there some edit (with the original post) that needs to take place? because as of right now,

The results still yield this:

Hi @62qx Those links work for me after refreshing; have you tried that?

5 Likes

Oh that was a complete oversight on my part! I didn’t even consider trying that.
Apologies but yes, after refreshing it certainly works!

You can enable auto-update for packages - but we do not recommend this for Feature Packages right now since you’ll be making changes to config scripts within the packages themselves. Auto-updating packages would override these changes. We’d recommend keeping track of the config changes you make and manually updating the package so that you can re-apply your own changes (i.e. which Bundles/Missions/Seasons your game has).

Wait–doesn’t this mean you can separate the config scripts from the package, and reference the new locations?

The packages are currently set up to be self-enclosed, with all dependencies either in individual Feature Manages or in known locations across the packages.

You’re totally welcome to rearrange scripts to your liking, but you’ll also need to modify scripts’ object references! The latter will not work with auto-update behavior.

You could also add fork own config script(s) and require them by the ones within the packages themselves, so that on update all you need to do is re-require them.
