Information

:happy3: Thank you for taking your time and reading this, this is a simple Objected Oriented Programming Discord Logging system, this system simply just logs every player that joins with the game JobId along with the epoch time on the bottom of the embed, Overall this is my first “Open sourced” system I have made, let me know your feedback and more things I should open source

Script: Location: ServerScriptService

local Player = game:GetService("Players")

Discord isn’t a logging service and your code doesn’t have any rate limit checks when using the webhook (which can lead to several negative outcomes).

#3

Hmm, why would rate limit checks be needed?

#4

If a lot of players join a server at once, rate limits will be hit frequently. If the limit is reached too often, Discord can disable your webhook and/or terminate your Discord account. If they can’t control the abuse of webhooks, they may block Roblox entirely (for the 2nd time).

#5

I can just add a debounce and a queue system, or would there be a more ideal way of doing it?

#6

That’s not a very effective way to prevent hitting rate limits.

IIRC, the current limit is 200 webhook requests per minute. This can vary since a game can have several servers. There’s a way to get the number of requests a webhook can receive before getting limited with HttpService, but I don’t remember how exactly.

Hey why are you putting your webhook in your code?

#8

The webhook is removed, however it’s there if someone doesn’t know what to put there!
