How to award UGC Limiteds ingame?

Help and Feedback Scripting Support
#18

I don’t know what your wanting but here is an example on how to do it in a server script its pretty much the same way as I show above. I put the script in serverscriptservice. When a player joins in 10 seconds they would get the prompt to buy/get their item.

game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(player)
wait(10)
	local itemId = 5275823807 -- Change to the ID of your item.
game:GetService("MarketplaceService"):PromptPurchase(player, itemId)

end)

How did you do this? In the future, please only mark solutions with the real solution to your issue so others won’t have to make reposts and can benefit from your post as well. Thanks!

This question is not only directed towards you, but more so to UGC Creators. How would it be possible to set the price when rewarding a UGC item? i.e.: Prompting a purchase for free if they accomplish a task provided in-game, but allowing them to purchase it for robux in-game as an alternative. I am not a UGC Creator so this is more confusing. Thanks!

(for reference, it was done in this game.)

This item was purchasable for 400 robux I believe. It was also rewarded for free through getting something done in the game. How was this done?

How to make UGC Rewards for games?
#24

I just played a game that has this choice, (and actually got it this way). You would make a developer product and/or gamepass, and check if they bought it. If they did, you would prompt the free UGC. Thats how most UGC creators go about making it.

Ok. That’s smart, but is there no cleaner, more official way to do this?

#26

No, because you need to let the user buy it. There is no support for making a free and paid version. You can’t force it in their inventory. Only other option is to make 2 Limiteds, one paid one free, but that doesn’t make sense

#27

I think he did it by the “Experience by Place ID Sale Location.”
Here is something from Roblox:

more like 10 milliseconds (seriously, when i refresh every time a ugc limited releases, it gets sold out)

#28

ok, can you show how you got the answer for others who may have the same issue??

Is there any way to get the stock of a UGC limited? I don’t want players to be confused and just see the limited not being able to be bought, but have them realize that the stock is all gone. Thanks!

Use MarketplaceService:GetProductInfo() And check out the Remaining property

any help on how to make it so when you step on a part, the prompt appears?

#35 
local Market = game:GetService("MarketplaceService") -- Market!
--
local debounce = false -- Ony One Per Time.
--
local ItemID = 0 -- Change With Your ItemID
--

function BuyItem(thing)
	if game.Players:FindFirstChild(thing.Parent.Name) and debounce == false then -- Check If Player Exists
		debounce = true -- Debounce
		local plr = game.Players:FindFirstChild(thing.Parent.Name) -- Set Player To The Player Intance, not the name
		print(plr.Name.. " Touched The Part: " ..script.Parent.Name) -- Printer, Can be removed
		Market:PromptPurchase(plr, ItemID) -- Purchase!
		task.wait(1) -- Debounce
		debounce = false -- Same
	end
end


function PPFinished(User, BuyedAsset, isPurchased) -- Verify Status Of Player Purchase
	if BuyedAsset == AssetID  then
		if isPurchased then -- If Purchase is sucessfull do things
			print("Purchase Completed. AssetID: " ..BuyedAsset.. ", Player: " ..User.Name)
		else -- Same but if NOT sucessfull
			warn("Purchase Canceled. AssetID: " ..BuyedAsset.. ", Player: " ..User.Name)
		end
	end
end


script.Parent.Touched:connect(BuyItem) -- Buy Prompt
Market.PromptPurchaseFinished:Connect(PPFinished) -- Prompt Output

I still do not understand how I could upload the UGC to Roblox, as an item sold in the game only.

#37

Upload it as normal, but when you put it for sale there would be an option to choose in experiences only.
