Runtime variables

info

LuaAuth provides some runtime variables which gives you access to user information

la_is_premium

Boolean

This will be True if the user is whitelisted (has a key)
and False if the user isnt whitelisted (FFA user)

This variable is only useful in FFA scripts as for non FFA scripts this variable will be True for every user

Example code

if la_is_premium then
    print('user is whitelisted')
else
    print('this user is not whitelisted')
end

la_executions

Integer

The total executions for the user
Works with FFA users but may be innacurate

Example code

print('this user has executed the script ' .. la_executions .. ' times')

la_discord_id

String Nullable

The users discord_id
Will be Null for FFA users

Example code

print('the users discord id is ' .. la_discord_id)

la_seconds_left

Integer Nullable

Seconds left until the users key expires
Will be Null for FFA users and users that key doesnt expire
Is updated every second to reflect the new value.

Example code

    print('the users key will expire in ' .. la_seconds_left .. 's')
    task.wait(1)
end

la_user_note

String Nullable

The users note
