The other plugin only works with Wakatime; it only connects to Wakatime, so it doesn't work. Also, the version I made during High Seas is much more advanced; it tracks literally anything a person does, not just scripting and playtesting.

Set Up Hackatime with Roblox Studio
This guide will walk you through setting up Hackatime to automatically track your game development time in Roblox Studio.
Step 1: Log In to Your Hackatime Account
First, make sure you have a Hackatime account and are logged in. If you don't have an account, you can create one at hackatime.hackclub.com.
Step 2: Install the Hackatime Roblox Studio Plugin
Next, you'll need to install the Hackatime plugin directly within Roblox Studio:
-
Open Roblox Studio.
-
Navigate to the Toolbox.
-
In the Toolbox search bar, select "Plugins" from the dropdown filter.
-
Search for "HackaTime Roblox".
-
Install the plugin published by "ThisWhity".
Filter the Toolbox by "Plugins"
Install the "HackaTime Roblox" plugin by ThisWhity
Step 3: Configure the Plugin with Your API Key
Now, you'll connect the plugin to your Hackatime account using your unique API key:
-
Get your API key by visiting hackatime.hackclub.com/my/wakatime_setup. It will look something like this:
xxxxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxxx.Your API key from the Hackatime website
-
In Roblox Studio, open the Hackatime plugin. You'll usually find it under the "Plugins" tab in the Ribbon bar.
Open the Plugin
-
Paste your API key into the API key box. And hit "Save API Key"
Troubleshooting
ERR_NETWORK: Plugin Cannot Connect to Hackatime
If you see an ERR_NETWORK message, it means the plugin can't connect to Hackatime. This is likely due to you not allowing HTTP request from the plugin:
-
Open the "Manage Plugins".
-
Hit the edit icon.
-
Ensure that "hackatime.hackclub.com" is enabled.
Open Plugin Managment
Allow HTTP requests
