I am trying to write a plugin that flushes data to settings(). However, this simple thing doesn't work anymore;

Instance.new("Configuration", settings())

Returns

Error; Not allowed to add that under settings

Anyone have a solution for this, or has this been blocked due "hax reasons"?

:/

Ah no! Then why don't they provide us something that we can like store 128 kb of Configuration Data?

I want to use them for plugins. God why...

I'd suggest talking to JulienDethurens, he's been working on a plugin system that will handle saving.

Oh, well that's his save system down. I guess you don't have to talk to him.

We can also just use UserSettings().

Or actually, we can't, it seems it's locked too.

Well, we can still just store it all in a string in some setting that isn't really important.
