Configurable Scripts

Hi everyone,

I have created an object, with a few scripts, that I would like to sell. I'd like buyers to be able to edit a "configuration" script (e.g. colors, text, etc) to modify the item, but I don't want them to see the actual scripts themselves, or textures or other items contained in the object.

How would I go about doing this?

Thank you in advance,

Tsukasa Sakai

Easy: Use a notecard :)

You can use a notecard to persist the configuration data. Put a notecard in the inventory along with your script and come up with a structure for you data on a line by line basis as in:

color: red
enabled: true

Then, from your script, you can retrieve the notecard lines using the dataserver functions and parse the text.
