InCommand - versatile, adaptable command execution

[boatbomber (Zack_Ovits)]

It’s a Roblox race condition.

plugin:SetSetting() & plugin:GetSetting() do not function as intended

Hello, I’ve found recently with plugins such as my own have difficulty saving data due to inconsistent behavior with the plugin data getter and setter methods. This makes it difficult as a plugin developer, especially if the plugin heavily relies on save data (such as the one linked above), as it is entirely out of the user’s control. Doing methods such as double-checking or double-saving do not work at all. Because this behavior is inconsistent, it is difficult to directly reproduce, and the…

All local plugins and built-ins use the same settings.json file, allowing for conflicts

Currently, when you save a local plugin that uses plugin:Set/GetSetting, it is saved to a specific settings.json file located at/Roblox/{UserId}/InstalledPlugins/0/settings.json. The problem with this is when we have two local plugins which use the same key, basically resulting in conflicts Using some of the settings, lets use “ViewSelector_Active”, [image] in this case, which is used by the View Selector built-in, I could write a plugin that also uses the same key, however this would interfer…

File-installed Plugin settings just got wiped

Thanks for your patience, and sorry for the inconvenience.

Whenever i Run A Script It Shows This How To Fix It? Or Is It A Bug

*Edit i Dont See A New Update On The “Manage Plugins”

[variantRBLX (variant)]

i cannot figure out how to fix this i do not see any new updates on the “manage plugins”
its the same on the atmos - skyboxes plugin

[bluebxrrybot (blueberry)]

That was an update roblox did a very long time ago. Any time an asset id is required, it notifies you about it. InCommand did not print that directly.

[variantRBLX (variant)]

and idea how to make it not notifies me?, its annoying

New Require Introspection Feature

This is an amazing feature to have, but was it ever considered for this to instead show in a new dedicated developer console tab instead? I feel like it would’ve been far better as its own tab than a print because those can easily get buried by a malicious script simply by spamming prints after the require.

I don’t think you can disable it.

[variantRBLX (variant)]

Sad its very annoying,And the plugin is cool too

[KoriKagura (an_enchilada)]

Great concept but the lack of vertical resizing makes integrating it into my workflow a pain. As well as the callstack print, I like my console to be neat and tidy but unfortunately it prints from the server. Hope it gets some QOL changes!

Would it be possible to integrate Lua Learning’s autocomplete features (iirc that it had some that is) into this?

[Elttob (dphfox)]

Lua Learning’s code is proprietary (for valid reasons) and understandably, boatbomber did not want their IDE source code to appear in its entirety as part of the plugin source code.

Too many people unpack plugins, even ones which aren’t open source, because its far too simple to do so. Code from my own plugins has ended up distributed very widely without my permission ever having been granted from it. Legally speaking, it’s rampant IP theft, but there’s very little you can practically do about it. Therefore I can’t blame them for not wanting to include it.

If InCommand is ever to receive more features, they’ll have to be developed from scratch.

[Shiroudan (Shirou)]

That makes perfect sense! Thank for for spending the time to explain it to me! IP theft on Roblox is pretty crazy…

[R0bl0x10501050]

Would it be possible to include the recent addition of string interpolation to the syntax highlighter?

[SkyWarrior805]

There is a feature request that relates to the current issue you are experiencing with this plugin, about this requiring an asset ID in the output. Feel free to support it!

Disabling require(id) by default

As a Roblox developer, it is currently pretty scary to insert any types of free models into Studio. Even if I’m just looking for an old SpecialMesh, I always run the risk of inserting something that contains a malicious server-sided backdoor. While I personally am aware of these risks and know to screen anything I insert, I also imagine that many Roblox developers aren’t, considering the amount of times backdoors like this are used to cause significant harm to games created by smaller groups. r…

I have run into this bug while using InCommand, it makes writting code difficult as the character is replicated slightly to the right

[saaawdust (sawdust)]

i believe this is using boatbombers rich text thing. i got around it by modifying the original module.

[super_tbh]

I just lost 20 to 25 scripts that were saved in this plugin, which is thousands of lines of code. I tried going to the plugin’s settings.json file and restoring an old version (didn’t work). I tried using a file recovery program as well (didn’t work). I tried using another computer with Studio to see if the deleted scripts were still saved there (they weren’t). I have no idea what to do now. This loss is going to set me back days. I’m not sure what the point of using this plugin is anymore if I am just going to lose everything.

[Elttob (dphfox)]

I am sorry to hear that. I’ve looked at this issue time and time again and have been trying to architect a fix, but the problem is that it is a Roblox bug causing the data loss.

I am working on ways to better distribute and back up this data.

[super_tbh]

Thank you for your understanding on the issue, and I’m glad to hear you’re still working on it. On the bright side, by reverting game versions, I was able to restore maybe half of the code since I had previously held it in disabled scripts for the command bar. Crisis averted for the most part.

As for advice to anyone else using this plugin: always back up your code (at least until this bug is resolved).

Im really curious how you are detecting if the player is in playtest, can you elaborate?

My theory is just detecting if a player character exists but if roblox has a function it would be really helpful to know. (ive been checking the docs and cant find one)

Edit : litterally seconds after I posted this I found a perfect elegant solution, TestService.NumberOfPlayers is zero while in studio (with team create enabled) but changes during playtesting
