There is no such thing as a universe. If you read the article, a Universe is just a simply way of using Httpservice, and teleportservice and datapersistence to make a "mega world". Take note it's not actually a mega world.
How the system would work is as so
Use HttpService to share leaderboards and chat among games and servers Use TeleportService to move people from place to place (place to place being a game) Use DataPersistence to carry player's stats when they transfer between games |

@lolb, - Using HttpService for leaderboards would not work in popular games, the same goes for the chat, due to the cap of 500 requests per minute. - I believe you mean DataStoreService, which is a new data saving service which allows you to save to the place, rather than a player and share it between the places. |

| Thanks quorum. Unfortunately, no, it's rather complex to me. Maybe Quorum can help you a bit? |

| I've been trying to get an invite into RbxDev to be able to use the DataStoreService, however I have not been sent one due to my lack of completed games to showcase. |
