Help and Feedback Scripting Support
#1

So basically, Im gonna release a game with a bunch of games inside of it to play, community made ones as well. Right now, I have a custom loading GUI with string values inside: the game name, the game owner, and a number value for the ID of the game thumbnail. Will these values still work when the loading gui goes to a different game? If so, please tell me how.

Well, if you set it as default value then yes. However, if you are trying to make a script so that it updates its value, it wont. Instead you can do (example):

local teleportData = {
 gameOwner = 01921929, --insert game ownerId
 thumbnailId = 0000, --Insert thumbnailId or fetch it by replacing ID
 gameName = "gameName"
}
TeleportService:Teleport(placeId, plrUserId, gameName, loadingGui)

And then on the local GUI, you can set the value from retrieving data for example:

local data = TeleportService:GetLocalPlayerTeleportData()
if data.gameOwner then
   player.PlayerGui.Gui.gameOwner.Value = gameOwner
end

And retrieving the loadingGui by:

TeleportService:GetArrivingTeleportGui()

So, for say, I have Brookhaven RP inside of the games catalog, I press play, and when I arrive in the game called Brookhaven RP, I would see the same data, the owner, game name, and thumbnail ID? (So in summary, would this work with other places that are not owned by me)

#4

You can but you need to have third party teleports on if the games are not owned by yours. However, if you own a game and wanting to teleport to that place, then you don’t have to turn on third party teleport on.

Wait, so your saying I should put the recieving data in the tp ui?
