Be more explicit about why we can't save game settings

As a Roblox developer, it is currently too hard to know why game settings failed to save. All the pane is “Cannot save game settings.”

If Roblox is able to address this issue, it would improve my development experience because I would know why my game settings is failing to save.

Edit: I found out where some more explicit errors are 10 minutes later:

Wish this would have been more clear.

Or make game settings never fail to save so this doesn’t happen?

I’m losing my mind over this right now. Sometimes even if you change one little bit of text, all hell breaks loose.

As an example:


No matter what name or price I input, I cannot change data for any of the dev products. Still can’t figure this out and probably never will.

This also happens to me sometimes.
If encounter this error, use website instead of studio to create developer product will fix.

It’s because you don’t have permission to edit game settings.


The bug in 2020/2021 where game settings would persist as the foreground window was fixed. Just putting “Insufficient permissions to change Game Settings”, since it is the only usual reason why changing game settings tend to fail, would satisfy this feature request.
