Fixes

Not working in Studio

If you're trying to use SimpleAdmin in studio, you'll need to enable studio access to API services. This is because by default, Roblox Studio blocks DataStore access.

1. Open your place in studio

2. Navigate to the top and find "Game Settings"

3. Open the "Security" tab

4. Enable "Enable Studio Access to API Services"

5. You're all set!

Game Settings in Roblox Studio

Permissions

As the owner of the game, the system will automatically give you developer permissions. You'll need to be able to hand out permissions to your players though, right? If you want to do it in your settings file, you can find the permissions tables and modify them accordingly.

-- Comma separated list of names or user IDs
Moderators = {"ROBLOX", 1, "Builderman"};
Admins = {};
Owners = {};
Developers = {"Player1"}; 

If you would like to hand out permissions while already in-game, you can use commands to do it and they'll save to a DataStore.

Prefix, Deliminator, and Separator

Prefix

Your prefix is going to be the character that initializes all of your commands. If you haven't changed the prefix, it will default to : until you change it in your settings.

-- An example of the command prefix (:)
:kick crywink

Deliminator

The deliminator is how SimpleAdmin separates arguments. It's defaulted to (space) and it's recommended that you keep it like that unless you really want to change it.

-- An example of the command deliminator (%)
:kill%crywink

Separator

Did you know you can actually execute multiple commands in a single message? You can do this by including a separator in your command. By default, the separator is | and it's suggested that you don't change it to a key that you'll commonly use.

-- An example of the command separator (|)
:warn crywink Exploiting | :kick crywink
