The latest blog post had given us information on "Developer Products", or microtransactions if you are thinking tl;dr. So, yeah. How long will it be before someone completely takes advantage of younger players by allowing them to drain all their Robux (potentially bought using real-life cash) into one game?

So what if someone makes a pay to win game? It might be frowned upon, but if its successful then good for them.

I've been trying to figure out how to use it.

price = 0
player = script.Parent.Parent.Parent.Parent.Parent.Parent.Parent.Parent.Parent
script.Parent.MouseButton1Click:connect(function()
leaderboard = player:FindFirstChild("leaderstats")
points = leaderboard:FindFirstChild("DeadCash")
game:GetService("MarketplaceService"):PromptProductPurchase(player,19182407,false,1)
if WHAT then
points = points + 10
end
end)

Kingmatt,

I'm just looking at the Wiki, so I could be wrong, but it looks like you should be using a listener (this could be the wrong term, I'm bad at scripting) for ProcessReceipt. It said that the callback occurs until PurchaseGranted is true, so maybe something like:

repeat wait() until ProductPurchaseDecision.Enum==1
-- apply bonus?

This doesn't seem right, so never mind. I'll wait for somebody who actually knows what they're talking about.

use both the client and server side scripts that the wiki used:
use the ProcessReceipt function to add the points, after using PlayerId and ProductId to find who bought it and what they bought, then check what they bought to add the points.

I dont care about tracking the transactions.. I just want it to work. A Mod told me to ad line 6 of this script.. he said It might work, might not. So far all this script does it ask if you want to buy, than it takes your money and gives nothing.
Please help. Never used marketplaceservice


player = game.Players.LocalPlayer
script.Parent.MouseButton1Click:connect(function()
leaderboard = player:FindFirstChild("leaderstats")
points = leaderboard:FindFirstChild("DeadCash")
Game:GetService("MarketplaceService"):PromptProductPurchase(player,19182400)
Game:GetService("MarketplaceService").ProcessReceipt = function(receiptInfo)
points = points + 10
end
end)

I'm not talking about tracking the transactions.
You use the server sided script to check the transaction to find the user and the product, then you give points based on who the user was and what product was bought.
The script you have now, if not error, it would give points to everyone if one person bought the pass.

Then why are you posting on the scripters forum for help when this is not the right forum for it?

Instead of wishing wallet warriors ceased to exist, you should painfully drill deep down into their head that spending tons of money is never again.

Instead of waiting for someone to do the work for me on figuring this out, I actually experimented with it and figured out how it worked.

Don't think of me as a bad guy, or a noob. I was trying to figure it out too. I spent like 30 R trying to figure it out. I also looked at the wiki. I am not the best scripter and have never used MarketPlaceService. Now please, can you tell me what I did wrong.

So let's say a Developer Product costs 1 R$. How much does the developer make?

Its like game passes you have to wait a while. Look on your summary, and it will say something about Pending Sales

Ville: It seems to be very buggy. I haven't received a few transactions either.

There is a Wiki on developer products if you didn't know.
http://wiki.roblox.com/index.php/Developer_Products

There is one thing I am happy about with all this though, the ability to charge low amounts of Tix. Sure, this won't stop people from charging lots of Robux for silly reasons, but they allow me to sell very small things very cheaply. I don't know about anyone else here, but I liked the idea of game passes until I realised their lowest price was only 25 robux... I was thinking more along the lines of 10 tix really but nevermind.
