Add feature to delete built-in plugins?

Open Xane123 opened this issue 2 years ago • 2 comments

I don't like the built-in "UI Editor" plugin (and find Audio Discovery basically useless), so I like to remove the files on each update using my own batch script. However, as I can't also set FFlags using that method, I've returned to using Mod Manager, which I've found has a folder that lets me override any built-in sound, texture, or built-in plugin.

There's one problem with it, though; I don't think there's a way to tell Mod Manager to delete certain plugins' .rbxm files, only replacing them with a new file. I tried replacing them with mostly empty files that contain "<roblox!>< /roblox>", but when I open my game or test it in Studio, I get a ton of errors about my replacements: image (These errors don't appear at all when I delete the files instead.)

So, to sum this up, Mod Manager has a "mod folder" for replacing built-in Studio files, but there's no way to completely remove files. I think this would be a good feature to add; Maybe if a file that's named and placed in the same folder within [the mod folder]/BuiltInPlugins that is 0 bytes, it could delete the original Studio file?

Maybe just remove all code from the plugin script and put it back in the folder so it wont appear or be replaced

Hmm... That probably would get rid of some of the errors, but I think the ones that mention its "signature" would still appear because for some reason, Studio expects all of the built-in plugins to be signed.

Removing the files completely gets rid of all of the errors relating to them, so I still think it would be a good feature.
