Report Game Script?

Help and Feedback Scripting Support
#1

I want to report a game with a script in the game. I know game.Players:ReportAbuse() exists, but I want to report the game, not a player. How can I do this?

What exactly do you want to achieve?
From my understandings, if someone steals your game, a script will report it(correct me if iā€™m not right)
If this is the case then iā€™m afraid this isnā€™t possible

My goal is to make a script that reports a game, in the game.

Well then uhh, you canā€™t.
You can not report a game with a script itā€™s simply impossible.

EDIT: and why would that be a feature?
People could abuse this in a way that games get falsely banned.
Itā€™s just illogical for roblox to have that feature.

i tried searching if reporting games with scripts was possible but no resultsā€¦

so final answer: No you canā€™t

Itā€™s not impossible, you very well can do so. I donā€™t believe many people have done so and may therefore take quite some time to achieve.

If it was as easy as creating a script within the game to report another game, the danger would be that players would be able to loop report games until they get shut down.

Additionally, you would need to somehow work out the account who would report the game, but again this would be virtually impossible.

I agree but roblox wonā€™t be stupid enough to let scripts report games more than one time.

Ngl this is sus as. Why do you even need to be able to report a game inside another game?

I donā€™t think there is a way directly in Roblox but you could send a request to a server which will send a report via the API endpoint.

ReportAbuse(Player, Message)

Where ā€˜Playerā€™ is the gameā€™s creator and ā€˜Messageā€™ contains a reference to the game.

The ā€œPlayerā€ argument is a player object and not their UserId, therefore the gameā€™s creator would have to be in the same server, which Iā€™m guessing isnā€™t ideal.

I read that reportAbuse can only be used in the command bar.

Iā€™m aware of this nuance, hence the naming of the parameter ā€˜Playerā€™, automating the on-site report feature would prove difficult due to its use of a captcha.

This is true, as per the documentation.

This member cannot be used in scripts, but is usable in the command bar.

I know that, I am using it for something else though.
