why does CAS exist when UIS exist???

[oak hatch]

please i genuinley need to know what the point of it is

[next sinew]

you can set when it can be activated and when it can't

read the documentation

https://create.roblox.com/docs/reference/engine/classes/ContextActionService

there is alot of great explanations there

like honking a car only when you are in

[oak hatch]

but cant you just do that with UIS and a bit of logic

not that much even

[next sinew]

yea you can but CAS can also be used to create mobile buttons if i remember

i also dont use CAS alot

[oak hatch]

oh

tbh i feel like UIS seems like everything one would need but

im kinda curious what it has if they went out of their way to make an entire new service

CAS is planned to be deprecated in the future

Is Roblox sunsetting CAS?
Yes, we plan to sunset CAS in the future. Sunsetting means that your existing code will continue to work, but we will not make any changes to functionality, effectively deprecating the API for future use. All functionality that CAS supports will be supported by IAS before we sunset it. If you use CAS, we highly recommend migrating to IAS.

ah.

guess i wont be looking into it then

[deft light]

my best guess for CAS is that it was their first attempt at making IAS

[limber viper]
