🌊Getting started

Please make sure you read all the information provided in this page as all the information is important and will make sure SIMS works.

Roblox Rate-Limiting

Please make sure you don't have any of the following in your experience:

  • You don't have any join / leave discord webhook loggers

  • You don't have any admin discord webhook loggers

  • You don't have any chat discord webhook loggers

If you have any of the provided listed SIMS won't work as functioned and will be rate limited by Roblox servers.

Step 1. Invite the discord link with the provided link in the DM or email and click the blue authorise message. This will add the bot to the server you want.

Bot Invite

Make sure you invite the bot to the same server with the ID you provided in the SIMS Purchase Ticket if not your SIMS Licence won't apply.

Step 2. Add your groups role ids to SIMS using /authrobloxadd in the discord server you added SIMS to.

Step 3. Download the SIMS file from the releases channel from the communications server (if you can't see it please create a support ticket with proof of DM from the SIMS Assistant bot or the Email sent to you.)

Automated setup script

If you would like to use the automated SIMS setup scripts that auto sets up sims use the steps below else skip this section.

Step 1. Copy this script to your clipboard

game.Workspace["SIMS Production V1.1 | CTRL-U"]["ServerScriptService | CTRL-U"].SIMS.Parent = game.ServerScriptService game.Workspace["SIMS Production V1.1 | CTRL-U"]["Teams | CTRL-U"].Isolation.Parent = game.Teams game.Workspace["SIMS Production V1.1 | CTRL-U"]["Workspace | CTRL-U"].IsolationSpawn.Parent = game.Workspace  game.Workspace["SIMS Production V1.1 | CTRL-U"]["ServerScriptService | CTRL-U"]:Destroy() game.Workspace["SIMS Production V1.1 | CTRL-U"]["Teams | CTRL-U"]:Destroygame.Workspace["SIMS Production V1.1 | CTRL-U"]["Workspace | CTRL-U"]:Destroy()

Step 2. Go to studio and paste the script in the command bar at the bottom of your screen in studio.

Step 3. Press enter on your keyboard and you are done, now edit the config settings file within ServerScriptService to your liking

MAKE SURE TO ENABLE LOADSTRING SERVICE AS THE SCRIPT DOESN'T ENABLE IT DUE TO ROBLOX.

Step 4. Place the script into ServerScriptService, it should look like this.

Step 5. Make sure you have LoadStringEnabledset to true in ServerScriptService properties or SIMS won't work.

Step 6. The file explorer should look something like this.

SIMS Tablet

You can put the SIMS tablet anywhere, just make sure staff can access it to use SIMS. If a student get's a hold of the tablet don't worry, it won't let them use it.

Step 7. Edit the settings file for SIMS, an example of the SIMS config file is shown below.
