I am almost halfway done making my admin and don't see why people use loadstring in admin.

I think it was started as a way to simply the commands :ls and :s along with all the other things you could use loadstring for.

They use it for script making commands.

for example in khols:

:ls < localscript source
:s < serverscript source


They put a stringvalue inside the scripts, wich the localscript and serverscript loadstring.

So, after loadstring is taken out, will most admin command scripts be broken?

loadstring is only being removed client-side IIRC. :s would still work.

"only the :ls and :s commands"

No, :s will still work. Hasn't that been emphasized enough!?

There is another command which will be broken, however, and it loads local code on a specified player's client.

How will ":s" work if there is no loadstring?

loadstring isn't being completely removed. It's being disabled client-side (meaning it can't be called in a LocalScript).

It was mentioned a billion times minus a billion or two. Loadstring is only getting disabled on the client; local scripts can't use it.

:ls runs a local script using loadstring, so it won't work.

Server scripts placed inside the PlayerGui,Backpack,And character(Local places) will also not be able to use loadstring.

Yes, that is an older post, mentioning the implementation of LoadstringEnabled.

Server-side loadstring isn't getting removed yet.
