Can free limited items (experience locked) be restocked?

I want to publish a free limited UGC item that can only be purchased in a specific game. Since this item is not really a prize for everyone but rather an award which not many people will receive I don’t want to buy a big amount of copies that won’t be used. I’d prefer to buy them as needed, but apparently this is not possible according to the confirmation screen that roblox shows.

I believe I’ve seen UGC creators do this but this prompt is rising some doubts.

So you taking about automatically restocking you ugc when a player is about to get the reward? If so I don’t think you can do this directly with roblox but if you set up a script in your game that uses API to communicate to an external script that can then upload the the ugc. Correct me if this is not what you asked.

No, I’m asking if it can be manually restocked after all copies run out.

Oh I misunderstood but yes it can be manually restocked after it runs out but you have to reupload the UGC through sometimes roblox can reject it.

Does that mean we have to create another item with another ID?

I think it will still have the same ID.

Doesn’t restocking destroys the whole idea of LIMITED ?

No, it doesn’t because it’s not supposed to be limited. The only reason why it is limited is because there’s no other way to prevent everyone from buying it and only allowing the game server to prompt selected users to while keeping it free.
