Important note about version

All documentation is relevant to the Skeptic Framework V3 and above. Since then, V4 has been released and is mostly backwards-compatible.

You can assume all documentation is relevant for V3 and above, except for documentation explicitly tagged as {version4}.

This documentation may not be accurate for V1 and V2, which are legacy versions of the framework.

Example

local Skeptic = require(game:GetService("ServerScriptService").SkepticServer)

-- When was Carry an Egg released?
local AnswerEvent = Skeptic.Events:GetEvent("AnswerOnStage")
local EffectEvent = Skeptic.Events:GetEvent("InvokeEffect")

AnswerEvent.OnServerEvent:Connect(function(playerObject, answer)
    if answer == "2024" then
        local economy = playerObject:GetHandler("Economy")
        economy:Earn(100)

        playerObject:UpdateData("CorrectAnswers", function(prev)
            prev = prev + 1
            return prev
        end)
    else
        local character = playerObject:GetHandler("Character")
        local hrp = character:GetCharacter().HumanoidRootPart
        EffectEvent:FireAllClients("Explode", hrp.Position)
    end
end)
