How it works, step by step

  1. 1

    Define commands in a shared module: name, permission level, argument schema, handler.

  2. 2

    Hook TextChatService (or legacy chat) server-side; parse prefix and arguments.

  3. 3

    Verify the caller's rank against a config list of UserIds and group ranks before anything executes.

  4. 4

    Validate every argument type/range; never trust chat input shapes.

  5. 5

    Append each executed command to an audit DataStore key for review.

Concepts you'll use

  • Command schema modules
  • Permission gates before parse
  • Audit trails

Mistakes that cost you players

  • Checking admin status on the client and telling the server — trivially spoofed.
  • Unvalidated teleport targets letting mods crash servers with huge vectors.
