RunLuaSourceContainer (shortened, RunLSC)

This is a simple Roblox Studio plugin for running LuaSourceContainer(s) (excluding CoreScript instances), I wrote this because I could not find a feature where you can select multiple scripts and click a button to simulate running them.

Building a rbxm plugin file

You must have Rojo v7.x.x (tested: v7.2.1) installed and added to your path. Run the following command:

rojo build default.project.json --output RunLSC.rbxm

Limitations

• If loadstring is not available, then it will fall back to using Yueliang + FiOne for code execution, otherwise it will use Roblox’s provided loadstring. No longer applicable if using any version newer than 1.2

TODOs

• Implement a way to load scripts and run them on the client natively (already found a way, just needs implementation)
• Ability to run a script on the server while being on the client context and the way around
• Settings manager
• Settings widget
• Built-in script executor for replacing command bar
