Learn how to set up a global configuration.

v2 Global Config Support

CafePOS Lite v2 will feature a global configuration by default.
Installing global configurations requires knowledge of Roblox Studio, such as workspace manipulation, script editing, and the insertion of script types.
1

Open Roblox Studio

Open Roblox Studio and select your experience.
2

Create the Global Config

Copy the code below this text. Now switch to the CafePOS Lite folder. Create a ModuleScript there and name it GlobalConfig.
--[[
_   _    ____   ____  
| \ | |  / ___| / ___| 
|  \| | | |  _  \___ \ 
| |\  | | |_| |  ___) |
|_| \_|  \____| |____/ 

CafePOS Lite | Global Config
------------------------------------------------------------.
IMPORTANT
===================================================
This is the GLOBAL configuration file for CafePOS.

All POS lanes automatically load their settings
from this file.

You should configure your cafe settings here.

Lane specific settings (like LaneNumber) must
be configured inside each POS lane script.

Changing values here will affect ALL POS lanes
unless a lane overrides the value locally.
--]]

local GlobalConfig = {}

-- =========================================================
-- General Cafe Settings
-- =========================================================
GlobalConfig.CafeName = "Demo Name"  -- Name of your cafe as displayed in the POS system
GlobalConfig.Booting = "Boot"     -- Set to On to deactivate booting. Set to Boot to activate booting.
-- If you not enter anything it will be set to "Boot"
GlobalConfig.PriceTag = "$"  -- What is your currency displayed on the POS screen?
GlobalConfig.RescannableItems = false  -- Should items be rescannable?
GlobalConfig.CustomUI = "Default" -- Set to default for default UI. Set to "Custom" for custom UI.
-- Make a Folder in ServerStorage called "NGS | CafePOS UI" and put your custom UI in it.

return GlobalConfig

Override The POS Settings

Now that the Global Config exists, copy the code located below this text. Select your CafePOS Lite folder, then select the “Terminals” folder. Now, within each POS model, replace the contents of the “settings” module with the copied content.
--[[
_   _    ____   ____  
| \ | |  / ___| / ___| 
|  \| | | |  _  \___ \ 
| |\  | | |_| |  ___) |
|_| \_|  \____| |____/ 

CafePOS Lite | Settings
------------------------------------------------------------.
WARNING
===================================================
Modification can lead to script breakage. (This doesn't count for the existing configuration options)
--]]

local gConfig = require(script.Parent.Parent.GlobalConfig)

local Settings = {}

-- =========================================================
-- Locally Required Settings
-- =========================================================

Settings.LaneNumber = 1    -- Number of the POS lane (register)

-- =========================================================
-- Loaded Settings
-- =========================================================
Settings.CafeName = gConfig.CafeName  -- Name of your cafe as displayed in the POS system
Settings.Booting = gConfig.Booting     -- Set to On to deactivate booting. Set to Boot to activate booting.
-- If you not enter anything it will be set to "Boot"
Settings.PriceTag = gConfig.PriceTag -- What is your currency displayed on the POS screen?
Settings.RescannableItems = gConfig.RescannableItems -- Should items be rescannable?
Settings.CustomUI = gConfig.CustomUI -- Set to default for default UI. Set to "Custom" for custom UI.
-- Make a Folder in ServerStorage called "NGS | CafePOS UI" and put your custom UI in it.


return Settings
The Lane ID must still be configured in every terminal.
