Filtering enabled dialog

For those who use good scripting practices, this is a very simple plugin that reminds you when you open a place with filtering disabled, since roblox currently disables it by default:

Not very complicated, but nonetheless useful if you have no reason to work with filtering disabled, and need to make sure that it is enabled on all of your places.

Didn’t know FilteringEnabled could be toggled via plugins. Interesting idea.

I think it’s bugged, because there’s a “Keep disabled” button on that GUI. jk

Cool little thing that’s likely usable by some people - does the prompt disappear if you manually toggle the property from the Properties widget?

I updated the plugin so that it does this now.

Don’t worry; if you click “Keep disabled,” a nice message will appear in the output.

An user of the plugin says the prompt pops up when they start a Test Server in Studio - should probably be fixed so it’s only prompting in edit mode, though it’s also a good incentive to make them… rethink their decision of not using FilteringEnabled.

uh, regardless of FE, appearantly?

I can’t seem to replicate it turning on in play solo while filtering is enabled, though I sometimes see it flash and then disappear (which happens due to a while loop to account for changing FilteringEnabled through the properties panel; event listeners don’t work in edit mode, so a while loop was the best I could do).

Perhaps they were using an old version?

I also don’t know a reliable way to detect whether the user is in edit mode or any of the test modes; finding NetworkReplicator only works half the time.
