is this good way to do inventory

[shell trench]

is it gonna lag or shoot off too many events? is there better way to do?

[ember flame]

why do you use datastore if u haev profile store

also why is buying item inside ur inventory module script?

ur inventory module should only have stuff that manipulates the inventory not purchasing something from the store

[mild knoll]

If it fires to the client when something changes your perfectly fine

Just make limits to how fast something can change

Just simple denounce

[shell trench]

all the actions update the module script

and then the rest of it is finding a way to sync the module script with the game

[shell trench]

idk am still figure out profilestore xd

[shell trench]

ok

[ember flame]

yes but are u putting the buy function inside the inventory module?

[shell trench]

sorry for confusing layout. i just mean they click on a gui and buy whatever they intend. buying then adds that item to the module

the module then gets update and fires event and so on is my plan

[ember flame]

oh ok yeah seems right

[shell trench]

is good way to do it? are there better ways

[ember flame]

the way u describe it seems very general. if you list specifics on how youre gonna do the purchasing i could help

[shell trench]

i am honestly not sure yet i will figure out as i go xd

i just plan to have a basic purchase script where they can buy something and it adds it to their module

and then somehow it detects when their module updates and fires an event

and that event starts a script that updates their inventory somehow 🪦

[ember flame]

Like a whole script for purchase itself? Seems kinda excessive but you do you

[ember flame]

Ye that’s basically all it is

[shell trench]

wdym?

[ember flame]

like purchase should really just be 1 function in a whole module

for me at least

its js a check
if money enough -- > datamodule:minusGold(100) -- >inventory module:additem('sword')

[shell trench]

oh okay thats kinda smart

i may change sum of it

[misty inlet]

it's not good to store player's inv stuff in a module

coz every player who join has a copy of that module so the module data just get copied to another player

[shell trench]

each player that joins will be added to the module and have their own inv

[shell trench]

YAY!!!!

[ember flame]

use profilestore bro

its a module btw

[misty inlet]

if it's in replicated storage then exploiters can access all player's inv
