Structs and methods

Header

#pragma once
#include <clpp/libs/janitor.clh>

struct LeaderstatsServer {
    static constexpr int STARTING_COINS = 0;
    Janitor janitor;
    void PlayerEntered(Player player);
};

Implementation

void LeaderstatsServer::PlayerEntered(Player player) {
    guard (player != null) else {
        warn("Invalid player");
        return;
    }
    Folder folder = new Folder(player);
    folder.Name = "leaderstats";
}

Class::Method emits function Class:Method(...). Inside, @this is self. @janitor is self.janitor. Bare fields still become self.field. this without @ is the same alias.

Receiver

@ is the sigil. @this is the object. @field is self.field. Calls from outside still use . (hello.Greet(player)).

init singleton

void init() {
    Players players = GetService<Players>();
    LeaderstatsServer leaderstatsServer;

    for (Player player in players.GetPlayers()) {
        leaderstatsServer.PlayerEntered(player);
    }

    players.PlayerAdded~>Connect(func (Player playerEntered) {
        leaderstatsServer.PlayerEntered(playerEntered);
    });
}

Build one service object and capture it. That is the game’s singleton.

Field-only structs in a .clh (PlayerData templates) emit const function Name() with default fields.

Untagged files that only define Class:: methods return the table (ModuleScript).

Next: I/O.
