Setup

Install, shorten the cooldown, write one reward, and watch a claim happen.

Installation is the standard four steps in Installing a system. Drag uxrDailyRewardsSystem into ServerScriptService and press Play once.

This page is the first useful thing to do afterwards.

1. Make the cooldown short

A 24 hour cooldown is a bad way to find out your reward code has a typo. In Shared/Config/Settings.luau:

DailyRewards = {
    ClaimIntervalSeconds = 30,
},

Thirty seconds between claims. Put it back to 86400 before you publish.

2. Write a real reward

Open Server/DailyRewards/Rewards.luau. Day 1 ships with an empty Grant:

[1] = {
    Icon = "rbxassetid://0",
    ValueText = "500",
    Grant = function(player)
        local stats = player:FindFirstChild("leaderstats")
        local coins = stats and stats:FindFirstChild("Coins")
        if coins then
            coins.Value += 500
        end
    end,
},

That file is server-only, so anything your game can do on the server, Grant can do.

3. Press Play

The panel opens on its own, because day 1 is claimable for a player who has never claimed. Click the day 1 card. The reward runs, the card goes to the claimed style, and day 2 starts counting down.

Wait out your thirty seconds and claim again to see the streak advance.

4. Let a streak break

Claim, then wait ClaimIntervalSeconds * 2 without claiming. The next claim is day 1 again, and Hooks.onStreakReset fires. That is the whole miss behaviour, and it is worth seeing once before you decide on the real numbers in Streaks and cooldowns.

5. Turn saving on

Progress is stored in a DataStore. In Studio that needs Game Settings, Security, Enable Studio Access to API Services. Without it every Play starts from day 1 and Output warns about the failed load.

Change the store name to wipe test data

Profile.Store in the settings is the save slot. Changing it, for example from uxrDR_Profile_v1 to uxrDR_Profile_v2, gives every player a fresh profile. It is the cleanest way to throw away the streaks you built up while testing with a 30 second cooldown.

6. Set the real numbers

Setting	Test value	Live value
`DailyRewards.ClaimIntervalSeconds`	`30`	`86400`
`Profile.Store`	`uxrDR_Profile_test`	`uxrDR_Profile_v1`
`Skip.DevProductId`	`0`	Your product id

Publish. Settings live in the file, so publishing the place ships them.
