I’m creating a game which will be single player and will have a lot of AI. For performance, would it be better to script it on the server or client? Replicating to the server shouldn’t be an issue because it’s single player. Sorry if this is the wrong category!

Local scripts only run on the players client or device whereas server scripts run on the server and display what is happening on the server to the client. So i would say test it on both to see which one it runs better on.

Server because if it’s on the Client it can be Exploited easily

Im not worried about exploits at all though since they would only be disrupting their own gameplay and not anyone else.

You’re right, but if you have things like leaderboards etc. they might cheat to get like 1st place
If there’s nothing like this you should be good by making it on the Client
And if I’m not wrong making it on either side should have the same impact - either in the Server or the Client

If you can do stuff on the server then do it on the server, you wouldn’t want your entire game stolen would you?

I’d just do it on the server so that the server has access to the AI without asking the client what the AI is doing.
