#anyway to prevent local scripts from being stolen/exploited?

about stealing you can't do anything, about the other you should handle the important checks on server, depends how on what type is your game;
example:
if your game is an incremental when the player fires to gain coins for example you'll need to calculate how much it gains on server

can't prevent theft and stopping exploiting is just making the server check everything (never trust the client)
only thing you can do about content thieves is make your stuff harder to steal, but nothing you do will outright stop it.

yea thats not gonna stop anyone. it might slow them down, by about 3 seconds. really what this looks like is some exploiting skiddie found those 2 games and couldn't use their exploits because they didn't understand actors and then posted it on the devforum like it's some huge discovery. it's not. they're just a skid with no clue what they're talking about.
this post summed it up well. https://devforum.roblox.com/t/easiest-and-best-way-to-prevent-exploiters/2820964/12
This will not prevent exploiters, it may prevent skids (bad exploiters) from tampering with easy-access variables. If they try hard enough, they will still be able to change things. And this definitely won’t prevent flying scripts, teleporting, ESP, macros, etc.
