I finally added documentation for the framework! I will be working on it more, but for now, it should suffice!

Question, is there a way to communicate between client to client, or server to server like in Aero. I don’t know if there is, because I am using singletons or _G for this.

#64

Thanks for the question :smiley:

Currently, that answer is sort of. You can do self.Plugins/self.Scripts and access userdata from there, but I’ve been thinking that’s not enough. Would something such as non-remote events be of interest to you?

Yes definitely! Its crucial when you scripts need to communicate hard for it to work.

Sounds good! I’ll work on that feature soon.

#67

Update!

  • Remotes work entirely different. Rather than over-complicating it, like it was before, I just decided to some stuff and boom. All issues with remotes thoroughly tested and proven to finally be fixed.
  • New icons for the plugin buttons
  • Animations for blur in/out and notification in

Major Update

Revamped UI

yucon

  • You are no longer overwhelmed with a ton of buttons, it’s now reduced to option panels and a single “create” button.
  • By default, the Yucon editor will not show the instance creator panel, instead only showing a minimalistic script selection panel.
  • The color palette now matches the icon.
  • Other minor changes.

Classes

You can now create classes! Classes are what create object-oriented programming; this creates flexibility and security in your code by keeping meta-instances with private data.

You can create an object of a class in Yucon by doing self:NewInstance("ClassNameHere", Arguments...)

Shared Scripts

You can now create shared scripts! These are scripts that run on both the client and server.

These have a large number of use cases, but be aware that it is exposed to the client, do not input sensitive server information in shared scripts!

Other Changes

There are a variety of other changes, such as backend code modifications and slightly modified UI aspects from the previously existing UI portions.

Hopefully this update helps Yucon provide more of a use!

Documentation will be updated soon.

  • Framework handlers have been further optimized to reduce repititive code
  • __metatable added Yucon instances to secure modules better
  • API Documentation has been updated with clear examples, and complete coverage. See it here: Yucon Framework API Page | YuconFramework
  • Datastore2 is no longer included as a plugin inside the framework. It has been replaced with loleris’s ProfileService module.
  • Minor changes

The big one here is the complete documentation! This has been long awaited, and I finally did it folks.
Here is snippet from the API to show you what it is like:

Some users might have difficulty understanding the plugin, so there is now a Discord server to help out!

UPDATE

11/6/21

  • Added :GetClass() method to the API. This allows a user to access a class without creating a new object!

  • Minor optimizations to the Yucon Framework

  • Changed default cases of camelCase to PascalCase

  • Added new default Spring shared class

  • Added new default Bind client class

  • Removed the default ThreadHandler shared plugin (it has been superseded by the task library from Roblox)

#73

Definitely gonna have to give it a try, looks very clean and good performance wise. One thing I would suggest is to include like a example script or system for refrence.

#74

Gotcha. For now though, there are free classes and plugins!

#75

UPDATE

11/21/21

  • Fixed an issue where remote functions would not return data from the server back to the client upon a client-to-server request

  • The plugin-side code has been entirely rewritten

  • Importing and updating the framework is much faster (near-instant)

  • Fixed some issues related to module navigation UI not updating properly

  • MAJOR_YUCON_VERSION no longer attempts to import. This may be deleted from your game, this was a legacy method of checking Yucon import status

  • Upon opening a game that already has Yucon Framework installed, the developer will get a notification letting them know Yucon is active

Is this a bug?

Capture

It says it when I try to use any option.

#77

What do you mean by use any option?

#78

To create anything on the editor.

#79

Which button remains non-functional?

#80

Every single button that is supposed to create something doesn’t create it.

#81

Is there a video tutorial on how to set this up? I don’t know how GitHub even works…

#82

Can you take a screenshot and circle the buttons that don’t work?
