ShotScript for Roblox games.

Mark code server or client and the checker keeps each side out of the other's code. The build writes plain, strictly typed Luau in a Rojo layout, or the whole project lives in one file that Studio opens, with undo and history.

Up and coming

  • The whole project compiles into one ModuleScript in ReplicatedStorage, server and client code together.
  • A switch per script keeps a server script's source on the server.
  • use external for Roblox projects: a project that several others use compiles once, shared.

ScriptsPut @client or @server on the first line of a file and it runs by itself when the game starts, like the two Init scripts every project has.Server and clientMark code server or client and shot check stops each side requiring the other's code, and one name can stand for a module with a version on each side.RemotesWrite a signature in a remote's .instance file, and shot check checks what crosses the network and every Fire and handler against it.ScenariosTest your change by playing real game flows in a mock Roblox, from Luau files that never ship with the game.AdoptPoint shot at an existing Roblox game whose scripts are mirrored to disk as plain Luau, and read and change it as it is, with no .shot files.
