Can exploiters edit local scripts?

Help and Feedback Scripting Support
#1

Hello, so I am wondering if exploiters can currently edit local scripts, like change the code inside the local script, and is it easy for them to do it or not, because I have heard Lua-U made it harder for exploiters to do things to LocalScripts

What's a good way to make a FFA gamemode?

Hi!I think they can so to be safe you should add a anti exploit script.

I don’t think they’re allowed to edit your scripts but they are allowed to do stuff client-sided only and one example is teleporting to a chest/player/location by using HumanoidRootPart.CFrame = Location.CFrame, of course they are able to do many more stuff.

However, they can steal/download your game via synapse.
Though I think it only copies LocalScript(s).

They can completely copy your map too.

As far as I’m aware, you cannot edit a script through Roblox clients.
This is extended to exploiters, though I wouldn’t be surprised if there’s an exploit that can do just that; access scripts.

They can view studio stuff(I guess?) such as the directories/hierarchy of your workspace and this extends to GUI(s) and many more things.

Though that is only possible with Synapse.

Exploiters dont need to edit local scripts when they can simply delete the original one and replace it with their own code.

I don’t think they can delete LocalScripts & scripts for the server.

Like I said, they can execute client-sided things only.

Although many exploiters create exploits by copying your game via SaveInstance on synapse.
Synapse is the current best exploit for ROBLOX.

Local scripts can be deleted by exploiters.

The topic says local scripts, not server scripts.

I meant LocalScripts and scripts*

Clients have full control on client-side, so yes. About the Luau, not sure.

My friend exploits and you only need a script called Dex Explorer and it would allow you to download a game map/ some local scripts and also allow you to see workspace.

Aware of this. They [the exploiter(s)] can delete and modify some properties of the script but they cannot change anything inside the script, aka the actual code without extracting the game itself.

Then again, I’m running off of speculation. Correct me if I’m wrong.
