You can’t really make live updates, if you’re wondering how Jailbreak does it, then it is pretty simple.
They have made a script that on a certain time, reloads the map and adds the new features.
It is not like they’ve just pressed Update game without kicking every player, they had all those features prepared, but they were hidden, and the script only had to make them visible.

Two options:
MessagingService to send a message to all servers on when to start said event, helpful resource 3dsboy08’s wrapper:

UniverseEvent - Easy to use cross-server events

This is a simple wrapper for the new MessagingService that allows you to make cross-server events with minimal boilerplate code. Simple example: local Manager = require(script.UniverseEvent) local UEvent = Manager.new("ChannelName") --this has to be the same for both events. UEvent.Event:Connect(function(...) print(...) --works as you expect. end) UEvent:Fire("oof", 123, 456, false, true) --also fires as you expect. It also includes replay protection, anti-feedback-loop protection (so y…

Or you can use os.date and os.time like how most people do it. Note you’d have to have all servers with the upto date changes (event script) in order for a full live event.

Hope this helps!
