Asked by 4 years ago

If I was to encode lua and then put it into a roblox script would it still run?

there are 2 possible ways i can think of running lua in lua

the first is to use loadstring() which is not so secure

the second is to build an interpereter in lua for lua, not sure how you would go about doing that though

but i dont really understand the question because the grammar is wonky, what exactly do you mean by encode?

you cant modify scripts with scripts ingame, only plugins have the luxery of doing so, plus, you dont need to encode it before publishing espacially if FilteringEnabled is on as clients wont be able to read anything from the server unless done so via remoteevents and remotefunctions fanofpixels 718 — 4y

There are few options. First: use plugin called "Minify" made by stravant(make sure it's his plugin! There are fake plugins with infections nowadays!) It will rename all variables to random letters+underscores+numbers. Which will not impact your perfomance at all, in fact, it can even improve it. However, it doesn't make it completely unreadable. Just makes it less easy. Another option: script obfuscator. Those are usually paid. Some are faster, some are more secure. But all obfuscators heavily impact perfomance. They are also not free. I'd suggest using either IronBrew (20$, fastest obfuscation available) or Synapse Xen (It's only available if you bought an exploit which is bad and I do not recommend doing that. , very secure, heavily impacts script perfomance). In conclusion I recommend not to use any of these unless you want to make an anti-cheat.
