I would honestly highly recommend buying a VPS for $5/Month from DigitalOcean and host the nobolox.js server on there. It would be way more secure than using glitch.

You need to install dotenv FIRST in the command line.
I do cover it in my tutorial, Also make sure your path is correct i.e ./.env

couldnā€™t a hacker just run game.ReplicatedStorage.RankPlayer:FireServer(0) and get a free rank.

They could yes, You would have to do server checks or have someone code a secure one for u

Like, how would I make it secure? Any suggestions.

#37

  • Have it run as a Normal Script, (You would loose the buttons) Which is what my Service uses (I wont link it on here due to it would be advertising)

  • Add some kind of Keys to the script as a param of the Event (Key, userid, Rankid) smth like that
