Determining when in Team Test vs. when In Game

Help and Feedback Scripting Support

Hey Guys,
I am working on a game that utilizes multiple places within a game universe to the extreme (there’s a place for each planet in the game). We utilize Team Create as multiple dev’s are working on different planets simultaneously. I have a Framework that handles teleportation of player/player data throughout the game universe. Currently to update the Framework I have had to open each game then publish with the updated framework each time I update.

I am working on switching to loading the production framework from my models instead. This way I can have the development version of the framework in the place I am testing/deving in and when in game it will load from the production version. The framework loads like this:

local RunService = game:GetService("RunService")
local isStudio = RunService:IsStudio()

local Onion
if isStudio then
	print"Loading Framework in Dev Mode"
	Onion = require(script.MainModule)
else
	print"Loading Framework in Play Mode"
	Onion = require(8898462533)
end

Onion:init()
Onion:run()

This works, the problem is when we are in a Team Test it loads from the Production Framework instead of the development frame work. I want it to use the Development Version instead of the Production Version when in Team Test and in Play Test. When in TeamTest RunService:IsStudio() returns as false. I have played around with the other RunService Functions as well as the JobId but have had no success determining the difference between Team Test and in Actual Game, Any Ideas?

Team Test is emulating an actual game with a server, so its going to run like in-game. The only thing I can think of is having separate places for development and public versions, and checking PlaceID.
