Reposted after updating and adjusting all bugs to get feedback of newcomers.
Me and @VauItZone just played FoodMate, it works wonderfully, but with some issues.
- You said that duplicated items might happen, and it did.
- The "contacting the API " text is a bit misleading.
- The time on the board needs to be formatted (1min, 20sec).
- Lower case usernames don’t work when ordering, it has to capital.
- When click on an order it doens’t claim it but when I create a new order it automatically claims that order. Then it just breaks and no one can complete their orders.
- The order id is a weird hexidecimal inquadsystemical paradoximinastalisitcally number. Do
Order #1, Order #2 and keep the massive ID on the server side. - The boards also move
Cya,
Hey thanks, just checking you tried claiming through the chef ui not the order board. Also contacting api is more meant for the discord logging function. I actually didn’t plan the order board so it’s a wip but thanks for the review, I’ll work on it! The orders use uuids to support the website feature I’m adding where you can lookup orders ect! (The mini uuid is just 6 letters from the uuid!)
Nice server size lol
I really like this and find a lot of potential, but of course there are issues, like the ones stated above.
Another issue (possibly) is that there is a thin gap here which makes me slightly uncomfortable. If it is intentional design I suggest you try making it thicker? I’m not sure if that will help
Also, when you click on a tab for the first time in the chef tablet, the black text interferes because it fades out at the same time as the text fading in.
Again, I see a lot of potential, so keep working hard on this, and ask for any more feedback later on. Have fun!
OH! You are trying to make something like CAD but for orders and the discord logging is for debugging right?
It was my attempt at not having to cut shapes as it’s just a frame inside the outlined area with a ui corner then a non rounded frame where it joins the other part of the order, that’s cuz ui corner and clip descendants aren’t friends sadly Thanks for the motivation, I’ll fix it up!
It’s so people can see orders submitted, I already warn them of the rate limit potential but it was a hugely wanted feature of my last ordering system!
Oh yeah one more thing, it would be nice to have a small indicator of what name is the username and what name is the display name, just to make some lives easier
Have you checked if there’s a stroke on the ui corner or the frame?
Their is but that’s intentional so there is a border for the rest of the order frame!
I spammed the buttons too much…

Absolutely phenomenal work, the UI looks immaculate. The system works decent enough to be functionable.
Here are some things I think you should add onto it.
-
Perhaps try adding UI Corners to your UIs, mainly the base structure of it to give it more of a modern feel.
-
The ability to change the parameters of how many food items a user is allowed to order. I’d recommend having the ability to add as many items as the user desires; but having the ability to cap it if you desire as a developer of the game.
-
Round the numbers for the timers, this will make the system much easier to read and cleaner while looked at.
-
Have time limit indicators… a good example of these would be;
if the timer is below 3 minutes, the text stays white.
if the timer is below 6 minutes, but higher than 3 minutes, the text changes to yellow to indicate that they’ve been waiting for quite a while.
if the timer is above 6 minutes, the text becomes red and may have the background of the UI flash Red as well to let the workers know that the user has been waiting an extraordinary amount of time and should be a priority. -
Obviously, to go with #4: Have parameters that could be set by the developer to change these times to what they deem fit for time indicator(s).
-
An actual place to view the orders being done on some actual screens for a restaurant. It would help get a feeling of the energy with it being used.
I will keep an eye on this, looks promising.
As you said “Ui Feedback” It wont harm adding images instead of us playing would it? Tell me.
It’s best to play the game.

Hey, there is a glitch with numbers with studio not acting like the main game, very annoying I tried fixing it but it only works in studio. usually it’s presented like MM:SS, thanks a ton for the kind words, it means a lot after the amount of hours I’ve had to put into the security of this product, majority of the work is in the backend it might even be my biggest scripting project on Roblox so far lol
Awesome ideas, I had the timer colour planned, but didn’t think of making it flash, the customer restaurant screens sounds like a bloody solid idea, the users can modify the system as much as they like in the configuration module, it has a cap system, they can set it as high/low as they’d like, and since the system will be free it’s open source meaning they can just put their own scripts into it!
I’ll definitely keep your ideas in mind as they’re pretty solid!
And thanks for the kind words, it’s motivating knowing people are interested in what you’re making!
Lol if you could tell me which buttons I’ll work out why and add a debounce. The system generates client tokens which means the server only accepts your request if the token matches the hashed token in the script table. Spamming requests could possibly cause the client to be going faster than the server then the server is just denying requests.
I did think of adding a loading screen but it would make using the system tedious as after everything you do which required submitting, claiming, downloading orders for the chef ui, claiming, completing etc (not things in the cashier ui, that only contacts the server on submission)
I want to work together on FoodMate with you. Are you up for it?
I spammed the username button thingy with my username after quiting the page to select orders.
Basically this:
X Foodmate
------------------------------------------
Type Username
VauItZone
Enter
After pressing enter, the top exit thing is clicked and continue doing that over and over
Also is this meant to happen?
can we walk sideways
I’d love a person to assist in development! Contact me on Discord Tozzleboy#0001, just so you know I don’t plan on selling this until later on with the pro version, this version is open source and free.
You’ll have to spend some time finding out how it works, I’ll DM you the files of it or just add you to a TC
