Roblox Packages Will Improve Your Workflow!

[@blastermaster0199]

i watched through the entire video and you forgot to mention the performance gain. for example if you use meshes all of them will be counted as different assets. making it a package and all of them will be the same. it gives faster join times and less memory usage.

[@Paul1Rb]

Oo good to know, must've missed it while doing research

[@the_cat_the_cat]

does it also do that for unions too ?

How does this work? I mean, in a baseplate, take a desk mesh, and spam it over and over. Have two places of this, one with and one without all of those meshes being linked by packages. Would the one using packages have better performance?

[@blastermaster0199]

@@MysteriousGamerGuy If you have this desk mesh, even if they are all the same, the roblox engine will give all of them unique id's (even worse if they are textured). When you use Packages roblox will see all of them as the same model. The way you THOUGHT it already did. It's not just meshes and meshes that are textures but any model. Yesterday when I was working on a destruction based game that had a lot of the same duplicated tree - I made them all into packages so that the engine don't have to download like 1000 trees. It only has to download 4. (as well with memory improvement) Edit: if you are using Streaming this should reduce lag spikes because when it downloads large models it usually spikes.

Thank you soo much, this is gonna help me soo much :)))

No prob! Glad I could help

[@ElCamaronda]

This is amazing, like prefabs on Unity

[@Paul1Rb]

Yup

this is gonna save a lot of time

Bro this is so useful!

[@Paul1Rb]

That's great to hear!

[@HumbertoOriginal]

Finally, unity had it for years

[@ThatFATbannana]

It’s been in Roblox for 2 or 3 years now

[@HumbertoOriginal]

​@@ThatFATbannana so why is he only showing it now?

[@chanchowaton]

@@HumbertoOriginal he tends to showcase features added long ago

[@chanchowaton]

mostly because roblox is not that innovative and almost never adds new features

[@Paul1Rb]

Unity has prefabs and Unreal has blueprints, although, Roblox added Packages in (I think) 2018, it still took them a while to have a feature like this

[@thedarkghost199]

Cool❤

[@dappermitchyt3431]

Please do a video on style sheets, from what I understand they allow you to make custom styles for UI, meaning your able to edit multiple UIs as long as they have the same style, meaning it saves time.

I'll see

[@rafall1118]

Can you switch package versions at runtime?

[@Paul1Rb]

Don't know, but it'd probably be best not to do it

bro sounded genuinely upset when he used the ai change summary

[@Paul1Rb]

I'm usually for ai tools helping out developers, but them getting put into every aspect of the engine seems unnecessary
