I have multiple scripts that works together, the main one being on server side.
I would like to share this file with other factions (devs having their own games) (in a community) but to keep the equality between factions and my work safe.
I don't want them to be able to read/modify this main server script.
Is there a way to do it so that only the users in a specific community group can run this script in their own games (checking the creator of the game) ?
Is there a way that any dev cannot get access to this source code, therefore the inside parameters and modify them ?

Please help, the Forum hasn't been helpfull.

you will have to obfuscate all the code yourself and/or running code via a http request.

#

you can obfuscate by making the variables random gibberish and using a key to decode them

#

http request just hides the code but you can still read the code by loading the link in a web browser

#

there is no proper way to make your code closed source as this can be a security issue due to the fact that you can very easily hide malware in your scripts.

#

if you want true closed source then make your own game from scratch. not using roblox

vestal oyster Does module scripts hide it if im requiring it by its published asset ID?

please elaborate? if you're requiring a module script for your game from assetID? Do you mean like how plugins work? as they i think (afaIk) can be closed source? maybe i dont understand the question.

#

toolbox modules will always show their scripts once you import them into ur game

#

id need to do more research on this

#

the problem is that OP wants to obfuscate his server script which is different i guess

#

idk why he specifically said server script because module scripts will run the moment you require them

#

i been programming lua for like 8 months at most lol i dont know for sure anything outside of what i know
