[umbral geode]

ok

[latent fox]

Did you put this in “mypart”

[ivory wing]

i putted it in a part

not a part named mypart

[copper vigil]

anyone able to help me out

local mypart = game.Workspace.Part
script.Parent.Touched:Connect(function(Hit)
    if Hit.Parent:FindFirstChild(mypart) then
        mypart.Transparency = 0
    end
end)```

[ivory wing]

woah. how do you type it like that! i am not talking about the script

[copper vigil]

idk why no one could find the ittle error

[latent fox]

‘’’

[copper vigil]

you do "`" three times at the top then write lua after
write your code then do it again at the end of your code but without lua

do what is in the quotations

[ivory wing]

ok

[ivory wing]

anyways. the script is the exact same. tell me the difference please!

[ocean mesa]

Btw wdym by "making it so it doesn't get the template" what change do you make

[copper vigil]

You had "mypart.transparency = 0" it needed to be "mypart.Transparency = 0" watch your capitilization

[latent fox]

Hes printing out all the stuff inside the folder

except template

[copper vigil]

in my ui i have this
i want it to not get the template but for some reason it still does

[ivory wing]

woah. thank you sir

[latent fox]

pairs

[copper vigil]

yeah anytime, all types of scripters even advanced ones do the same mistake all that you need to learn more on is debugging

[ocean mesa]

What class is the template, is that like a frame or image label??

[copper vigil]

its an image label

[umbral geode]

can someone still help me with this

[ocean mesa]

Ah that's why it's printing, look back at your condition

Since it's an image label, it satisfies the first condition before the OR, so it's considered true

[copper vigil]

ah sh yes yes ur right

appreciate it

[ocean mesa]

(AND has higher precedence over OR, use brackets)

[copper vigil]

yup

idk why i never noticed lmao

[ocean mesa]

Quite gregarious indeed

[ivory wing]

it still doesnt work:( it just makes touchinterest in the part.

[copper vigil]

where is ur script you mind showing me?

[copper vigil]

ok show me properties of mypart

ahhhh

i found it

[ivory wing]

mypart is JUST a short way of saying game.workspace.part

[copper vigil]

is there any other parts?

[ivory wing]

nope

[copper vigil]

ok instead of making it game.workspace.part you could just do

mypart = script.Parent

the issue is in the FindFirstChild

[ivory wing]

okay thank you

[copper vigil]

when using it you need to specify it as a string not instance

so you have to do mypart.Name

or "Part"

[ivory wing]

i got it. ty

[copper vigil]

yup

[signal pewter]

is there a tutorial for that somehwere

[late nexus]

Is anyone online rn?

[fast radish]

yes i am

[fossil salmon]

intellisense is useless, prove me wrong

[sterile oyster]

can anyone help me out with a height proggresion gui and script i am stuck and cant find tutorials

[plain dock]

LF A SKILLED scripter who can implement pvp into my rng game dm me.

[late nexus]

@alpine jungle Did you script it by yourself?

[alpine jungle]

yeah im a solo dev, payed someone to make the mdoels though!

[late nexus]

Why are there trees floating in the air tho and how much would it cost?

[plain dock]

@alpine jungle Why are there trees floating in the air tho? Also how much would it cost?

[mild lichen]

whats the most important code to make a fps game

[zinc rapids]

what's the point of MinWidth and MinHeight ? setting them does not change how much you can resize the widget window size

[carmine yacht]

the gun system

[silver panther]

What kind ok bugs

[carmine yacht]

(https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c5PSecMNgZE) @faint schooner

[faint schooner]

Open a scam report.

[carmine yacht]

are you kidding me bro

[faint schooner]

No.

[carmine yacht]

this guy is literally selling

bro

[faint schooner]

I cannot do anything unless you report him.

[carmine yacht]

first second of the video and you guys dgaf

whattttt

thats crazy it takes 2weeks-3mo to get a review

im good on wasting my time one of you guys can do your job or don't but hes 2 seconds away from scamming this kid

ggs

[faint schooner]

That would be power abuse if I ban him without a scam report opened.

[carmine yacht]

thats insane

prob not your fault

[faint schooner]

If you really want you can ask anyone else and they will say the same.

[carmine yacht]

i dont think its your fault

i get it

all good mate

[faint schooner]

Just open a report and make sure to record that message he sent so that if he deletes it we have evidence it existed.

[robust beacon]

there is a way to spawn a rig using Instance.new()?

[rare bronze]

Instance.from()

Or smth like it

[old valley]

how much

[carmine yacht]

leaked file

[jovial gale]

i saw this uncopylocked

[jovial gale]

u can jusr search up farm tycoon uncopylocked

youll get it there

[somber vault]

Yo how do I learn scripting gang
I'll slide 1k robux to whoevers method helps me learn the best
You can suggest as many ways as you want
@ me whenever yall wanna answer

[hardy pilot]

@me work on full games from a tutorial then make a similar game without a tutorial using your last one as reference

@me

[crude wolf]

I have a really weird error "Transform function error tables cannot be cyclic" anyone know what this means and how to help. Where do you recommend i look, like client, or server.

[bright yarrow]

Learn the basics first, I recommend devking (Youtube) . After finishing the playlist begginer series you will understand the language. After that go to advanced when you finish this now you have more understand and can make a simple simulator. Just learn then improve your scripts, make your own ideas. Good luck I don't need the robux but If you insist then sure.

Use the discord and Developer Forum to get help

or me

[somber vault]

I would recommend Roblox Documents and DevForum itself. Find a "roadmap" that matches you best and follow it, make sure to note down important tips and keywords. Practice what you learnt in roblox studio, Do NOT make a game when you are beginner, make projects for practice. Once you learn the basics and consider yourself "intermediate", you can look at comms finding channel and try doing them on your own (** I am not saying take the comm, try doing them yourself alone for practice without taking the comm**.

While practicing, try doing it without help by third party, once you struggle and got no idea what to do, find what it is and learn it

[sour vine]

is it possible to make a script that chooses a random player in all of roblox?

[sour vine]

hes not sliding shiet

[proper veldt]

How do i detect when an animation finishes

[solemn echo]

...

im learning dont judge me

[latent gust]

the squiggly line tells you whats wrong

[crimson pendant]

@alpine jungle check ur dms

[viscid breach]

so... i do something weird and i wanna if theres a more efficient way to it, when i make a shop / tutorial i put a boolvalue in my leaderstats and for example if tis a tutorial i name it "HasDoneTut" and if he did it i enable it and the player doesnt do the tut.. same thing with shops boolvalue for example for a sword.. "HasSword" if its false then he doesnt if its true then when he joins he gets the sword, is there a more efficient way to do it?

[buoyant ice]

u can probably just use attributes instead

[buoyant ice]

i believe that means u have a table that has a circular dependency or 2 modules requiring each other

[signal plaza]

math.random(1, 8000000000)

[viscid breach]

ty aki

[spare nacelle]

You need the exact number though it's not exactly 8b

[sour vine]

how can i get the players tho do i just do roblox:getchildren()

[spare nacelle]

Nah not rly lol that's not how it works

You might need Java Script for that too

Idk tho

I haven't really thought Abt it

I would suggest

Asking someone a bit more experienced since this is a high level system

[sour vine]

i AM the bit more experienced i was just checking if its possible or not

and i dont think it is

[spare nacelle]

I mean more experienced than me haha

Not for you

[spare nacelle]

It kinda is not

But who knows

But it's certainly not possible with Roblox studio rn

You could try visual studio code and Java script

[blazing schooner]

I'm tryna make tick damage. Why doesn't my code work

local health = 100

if health > 50 then
print("Halfway")elseif health >= 24 then
print("quarter")
else
print("critical")
end

[tribal mango]

Is there anyone nice enough to teach me the basics of coding since yt videos are kinda confusing for me since I needa ask alot of questions

[torpid thistle]

make an complete review of your code, this doesnt change the locals playerhealth in any way

[viral vault]

what is the hardest thing there is to learn in lua coding

[wide lodge]

How much slower is a SharedTable vs. a normal table?

[hasty mesa]

50-100x

[wide lodge]

wtf no wonder my CUDA/OpenCL ripoff is so slow

[hasty mesa]

faster if you just communicated with bindables/actor api if its in bulk

[wide lodge]

unironically using bindables to manage a table would be faster?

[hasty mesa]

yes

and if you use buffers its even faster

[wide lodge]

yo wait what is that

[hasty mesa]

a byte array

[wide lodge]

unfortunately buffers aren't sent by reference to actors

[hasty mesa]

yep

but they would still be faster

to send

then tables

[wide lodge]

and like even a bottlenecked connection on a serial script would be faster than a shared table?

[hasty mesa]

in bulk yes

if you need to do alot of data transfer

from my benchs (lost the test place) transfering an array of 1000 elements took almost 10x more to read/write then just sending it via bindable

since reading has over head

and so does writting

[wide lodge]

what if i just say fuck it and like send each actor it's own copy of a normal lua table and then merge the write requests later

so basically i have a read and a write buffer

[hasty mesa]

yeah

that could work

[wide lodge]

that way things don't get bottlenecked hopefully

like unfortunately i have like 10 actors doing a bunch of little write requests

[hasty mesa]

server or client?

[wide lodge]

it's an OpenCL ripoff

so basically what happens is you have something called a kernel

[elder wharf]

this is a pretty good dynamic crosshair ai made me in less than 5 minutes and it would have taken me more than 30 mins to make

[wide lodge]

and then the kernel gets executed thousands of times on various indexes

and then it reads and writes a fuck ton to a shared memory buffer

this is how i have my kernels structured rn

-- calculating entry M(i, j) of a matrix multiplication product
return function(buffer: SharedTable, i: number, j: number, k: number)
    SharedTable.increment(buffer.O[i], j, buffer.A[i][k] * buffer.B[k][j])
end

[hasty mesa]

also just some fyi its actually way faster to iterate a shared table

then reading it

cause roblox converts the shared table to an normal table

[wide lodge]

is a sharedtable like a linkedlist XD

wtf

[hasty mesa]

idk

[wide lodge]

this is actually melting my mind

[hasty mesa]

apperently they lock and unlock

[wide lodge]

i think i might just accept extreme memory overhead

[hasty mesa]

each read/write

[wide lodge]

and just have a read and a write buffer

[hasty mesa]

which is why its slow

[wide lodge]

ill have ten copies of a read buffer

even though that'll be inefficient for 1000x1000 matrices

it might just work

[hasty mesa]

if you use a roblox buffers this could be faster

if its all numbers

[somber vault]

alr ty

[wide lodge]

i guess but this is just a proof of concept

also using buffers would make merging difficult

[hasty mesa]

buffer have copy functions

[wide lodge]

i guess maybe a custom object that stores all write requests could work

and then i could write to an output buffer

[hasty mesa]

that allow you to copy a section of a buffer to another

[elder wharf]

here is the code if you want

[wide lodge]

thing is this framework im making is supposed to be easy for soydevs to use

buffer not very fun doedoedoe

[wide lodge]

what the actual hell that is criminal

[hasty mesa]

yeah writting is the slowers

iterating is faster then reading the same amt of elements

[wide lodge]

actually yknow what maybe buffers is the better idea since the whole thing im scripting is for people who want to maximize performance

soydevs would just do everything in serial

[hasty mesa]

well also do you want to do this on the server

or client

[wide lodge]

it can be done on the server or the client

it's a parallel computing API

[hasty mesa]

since server default only has 2 workers

some games have more

[wide lodge]

wait so how many actors would be optimal then

[hasty mesa]

client right now is capped at 3 which could be a bug

[wide lodge]

i have 10 actors running on server

[hasty mesa]

but used to be at 8

[wide lodge]

and these actors run the kernel a bunch of times

[hasty mesa]

I just have 2 actors

but roblox will try to spread the actors

evenly

between the workers

[wide lodge]

so basically anything more than two actors is overkill?

[hasty mesa]

also this is in live game not studio

[wide lodge]

on the server?

[hasty mesa]

I have a custom system that spreads tasks out to actors

I think 10 is fine

[wide lodge]

ok then i guess the read and write buffer strategy + merger script it is

[half summit]

is it possible to make a specific word in the roblocks chat a specific color? sorry my eks key is broken

[wide lodge]

even ezier idea: use parallel actors to do parallel verification

buffers should be faster if i write in bulk, right?

since lua has overhead for calling each instruction

[wide lodge]

thx saar your idea to use buffers helped a lot it made my code actually not exceed time limits on roblox

i'm seeing about a 2.5x speed improvement from doing naieve matrix multiplication now

[rustic coral]

@halcyon ocean u can ask for help here

[tacit tendon]

Is there a default way to access an r6 torso C0

[lethal imp]

So in my game i have a walking animation, and a running animation that plays when u sprint (hold control) the issue is that when i have an item equiped in my hand the game uses the walking anim even though im running (holding control)

[tight spear]

smooth grab system

[exotic sequoia]

As someone who has been a pretty accomplished coder for many many years ... Grok is making me feel like I may need to start doing something else for a living

[crimson blaze]

bro lowkey i wanna try doing something like that

[exotic ivy]

How would I go about making a click detector script where multiple models in the workspace can contain clickdetectors, but I don't want a script in each of them

[exotic sequoia]

Make a single script for it, place it in ServerStorage. Apply a CollectionService tag to all of the parts that you want to use it. Make a loader script in ServerScriptService that enumerates all tagged objects and clones the script to those parts at runtime.

Any other way would be inefficient

[jagged shoal]

i need help adding a torso model column to a uniform gui that houses clothing and hat models

[exotic sequoia]

what does this have to do with coding?

[exotic ivy]

Would that be better than what I'm planning to do currently:

I've got a renderstepped event that highlights objects the mouse is hovering over, and I'm thinking of firing an event on mouse input only if an object is highlighted. Effectively faking a click on the object.

[exotic sequoia]

wait what?

[jagged shoal]

theres specific code required to make it function that i dont understand

[exotic sequoia]

I would need to know more about what you are doing and why

[exotic ivy]

Basically checking userinput for a mousebutton1 press

[bleak glade]

if im handling spawning of parts on the client and touched of said part that would update stats based on touch, how do i handle this with the server to update it? a remote seems not secure cause i was originally gonna use a table to add up the attribute value but any exploiter could send said value to the server

[exotic sequoia]

If you have a specific question, go ahead and ask 🙂

[exotic sequoia]

For starters, why are you doing this in a client side localscript?

[bleak glade]

so the parts are separate for each client

and they each have something to collect

it works fine on the server i just wanted that feature

[exotic sequoia]

ok, that's fair. So you are making the primary game logic all on client side.

For security reasons, I would not allow any decision on win/lose actions to be made on the client side

[bleak glade]

i dont even think its possible to transfer this to the client

collectors is a module i have in rep

[jagged shoal]

to my knowledge, the torso accessory is attached to the character via the “middle” part. the “head” is the part that the helmets get attached to.

ive managed to script the new column and button into the gui, however when it comes to the actual script that makes the appear on the character, it always breaks for me.

something must be different in the process of attaching a helmet to a character and attaching a torso accessory to a character, which is what is confusing me

[exotic sequoia]

So you are making a game where there are different parts for each player created in workspace using a local script. What I don't understand is what you are stuck on

[bleak glade]

the updating of the stats

[exotic sequoia]

If you want to send a message back to the server from the client, you just do a remote event

[bleak glade]

i was originally gonna use a table to store the values of the attributes then send it to the server, but any person could change that value

[bleak glade]

if i sent it on each hit wouldnt it just suck performance wise

[exotic sequoia]

the only thing the client side should do is generate the parts and connect to the touched, then send the info from the touched player back to the server via a RemoteEvent

The server should be doing everything from there

[bleak glade]

what about this

[river girder]

Any recommendations on what youtube channels I should watch to learn how to script?

[exotic sequoia]

How many hits per second are we talking about?

[bleak glade]

maybe like 10/s max

[exotic sequoia]

Put a cooldown on those hits lol

10 per second isn't bad at all

but why so many

[bleak glade]

these are the parts they would touch

[exotic sequoia]

So I wrote a game called Snowball Battle Simulator where the streets were filled with snow only visible for that player ... similar to what you are trying to do here

This is how I handled it

That was sending over 75 signals to the server per second

[bleak glade]

wow

[exotic sequoia]

Every time someone's shovel hit a snow square

[bleak glade]

was that not laggy?

[exotic sequoia]

nope

[bleak glade]

how much memory/usage do remotes actually use, im not sure i actually know

[exotic sequoia]

And that is on a game that also has at least 25 AI creatures walking around the map

[exotic ivy]

W roblox

[river girder]

Is alvinblox the best teacher for scripting?

[bleak glade]

kinda outdated

[exotic sequoia]

I don't even know who that is lol

[river girder]

Who should I watch

[bleak glade]

idk i didnt use tutorials

[exotic sequoia]

B Ricey is good

[bleak glade]

i look at the roblox documentations and made things

[exotic sequoia]

Different people learn different ways

[bleak glade]

yeah apparantly most people need tutorials though

[exotic sequoia]

I would say that everyone needs a tutorial of some sort to learn 🙂

[jagged shoal]

theres good creators for different areas, j find videos that have comments saying the video was helpful in that area

[inland bay]

👎

[bleak glade]

true, the documentation is kinda more advanced assuming you know basics

[river girder]

I used alvinblox when I was actively scripting but I havent scripting in so long that I forgot everything

[bleak glade]

you need to atlaest know the basics

[exotic ivy]

How bad would game:GetService("ContextActionService"):BindAction() be in a RenderStepped function

[exotic sequoia]

nah, this dude is just trying to flex the whole "I don't need teachers" thing lol

[jagged shoal]

crypto, ive sent u a dm for more help, i dont wanna bother too much but im having a brain fart

[river girder]

Youd be surprised how much people do that. Its very annoying when I just want help

[exotic sequoia]

Yea here's how it goes ....
You: I need help figuring out how to do XYZ
Them: What mother gave birth to someone so stupid to even want to do XYZ?

[hasty mesa]

Why is that going to be in an render stepped

[exotic sequoia]

Not helpful lol

[exotic ivy]

because I'm highlighting parts my mouse is targetting and I want to be able to click them with ContextActionService

[hasty mesa]

Yeah it triggers the call back each time you do the action

You don't need to put it in another loop

[exotic ivy]

I don't want a binded action if a part isn't highlighted

[hasty mesa]

Then disconnect it

And reconnect it when it's highlighted

[exotic ivy]

I'm doing that right now, but I'm thinking for as long as someone is hovering over a part it's gonna keep triggering it

[hasty mesa]

?

How would putting that in a run service loop going to change that

[exotic ivy]

it's not, that's just how it is rn

Wait why don't I just check if part is already highlighted before binding

[hasty mesa]

It's not bad because you just override the previous bind but that's what makes it redundant

[rugged sun]

anyone need a scripter?

[copper apex]

I am making a game that requires loops, I am unsure if I should just use a standard loop or a coroutine? What is better for performance?

[river girder]

How do you get script fonts?

[keen crest]

anyone know why this doesnt work?

[worn sigil]

crrowner

@keen crest

[keen crest]

yes

[worn sigil]

i can help

[keen crest]

ok

[worn sigil]

can you show me a video?

[keen crest]

ok wait

here

[worn sigil]

oh

try changing hit parameter

lemme replicate this script rq

it works for me just fine

i wil try changing the parameter and see

change hit to otherpart

it will work

[zealous gorge]

What's the difference between local script and using local in script?

[ruby fiber]

erm

[zealous gorge]

yeah are they the same thing or are they different? What purposes do they serve?

[ruby fiber]

sorry

[jaunty wolf]

local scripts only run on the player's device (phone, pc, whatever)

when you write "local" in a script, youre just making a variable. a way to store data.

local apples = 5

[zealous gorge]

so local script works only for clients?

[jaunty wolf]

yes

[zealous gorge]

roblox clients

hmm I get it now, thanks

[jaunty wolf]

ya and normal scripts only run on the server

[zealous gorge]

gotcha

[ruby fiber]

could someone test out my game

i wanna see if its a good application for script role :<

[jaunty wolf]

post it

[ruby fiber]

okay wait let me publish it rq

[jaunty wolf]

i can try in a little while

[tough relic]

unless you change the runcontext

[ruby fiber]

https://www.roblox.com/games/127530382236729/script-showcase-lols

yayyyy

wwww

[sacred prairie]

Prob the type of game whereby u join and get hacked.

[ruby fiber]

😭

[ruby fiber]

no i was thinking of using it as my script showcase for script role

wait dont join yet the player movement is doodoo

breh 😭

[jaunty wolf]

if you make sure youre actually going to roblox i dont think joining a game can do anything

[sacred prairie]

Join, then a script makes you type random words in the chat

[jaunty wolf]

you cant do this anymore

you could at one point but they fixed it and i think unbanned those who were affected

[sacred prairie]

That's great then.

It happened to one youtuber

But he reached out eventually

[ruby fiber]

yooo jelly did you try it?

😦

[jaunty wolf]

its one of the better games on roblox

[ruby fiber]

😮

YOU TRIED IT

noice

do you think ill get the scripter role with it or no

[gloomy kraken]

can hackers spoof instances? like can a hacker change the part sent by a remote function to another part?

[ruby fiber]

i just wanna know if i can get scripter role 😭

[rotund lichen]

Guys can I hire here like create a crates in TD game for 1k robux?

[tough relic]

#builder-hiring #modeler-hiring

[jaunty wolf]

yes, hackers can send any data they want via remote event. the only thing they cannot change afaik is the first piece sent (the player themselves)

[tough relic]

#1 rule of game dev, never trust the client

anything they send to the server can be altered

[ruby fiber]

is it hard to get scripter roll and also is there levels to the scripter roll itself?

[spiral jungle]

Yes no

Scriptone will deny to

You

[ruby fiber]

ah shit

wait can you check out my game im thinking of using it as the game to use for the showcase thingy

[spiral jungle]

You have to post code

[ruby fiber]

ohh ok

127530382236729

im still working out the bugs

for the showcase

[winter pasture]

how do i make a teleport block have a delay before i can use it again

[lost inlet]

🥹 ❓

crosswoods is in the past

[gray harness]

wait NOOOOOOOOOOO

I accidentally removed the owner of crosswoods on roblox

fuck i just remembered

😭

[regal hedge]

yes

anything the client is supposed to send can be spoofed

[wet marsh]

chat

what are some projects i could do

to add to my portfolio

[dire jungle]

shake dat booty simulator

[gloomy kraken]

do what im doing and make a grid placement system like minecraft or build a boat

[loud zenith]

create a GOAP AI system

[tribal meadow]

A roblox-discord verification system (if you verify your discord account in a roblox game, you get an reward)

Or maybe a roblox-discord communication system like Omegle (With the filter ofc).

Considering you're trying to learn both off-site and scripting, these projects will help you get the hang of it.

[open yarrow]

if ur scripting, combat systems and the like are usually good portfolio filler

[slender olive]

holy

[sacred lotus]

What to do when u don’t know what to script and when u know what to script u don’t know how to script it and u don’t know how to get better

[open yarrow]

look at tutorials but dont rely on them
read roblox documentation

if ur making smth for example a gun system u shouldnt look up "gun tutorial" but try to divide it into what makes it work (raycasts / some very basic math behind that)

and research that

[sacred lotus]

Okay how about making Frameworks for like combats Battlegrounds etc

And does looking at open source code help

[open yarrow]

frameworks are a pretty broad term but you don't really need a framework for a battlegrounds game

[open yarrow]

it can help give you an idea of where to go

if ur making a combat game especially one that is a bit larger scale you might need a framework or else it becomes hell later on

[sacred lotus]

Okay where can i get Frameworks

[open yarrow]

probably off devforum

[nimble heron]

anybody knows how to fix the ragdoll lag?

[sacred lotus]

Okay thanks do u have any more tips u would give

[nimble heron]

this one.

[open yarrow]

dont fall down the "pro dev" pipeline

you do not need to learn about majority of the shit more advanced scripters do

to make a fun and good game

get your code working, changable and somewhat performant and you're fine

[sacred lotus]

I lowkey needed that cause i would look at other games code and be like wow so cool

And then i’ll try to be like that

[open yarrow]

yeah there's no point really if im being honest

like if ur working with other people you might wanna keep ur code at a better level but if ur working solo and everything is working, changeable and performant

you're 99% of the time fine

[sacred lotus]

https://youtu.be/J5HyTy9mInU?si=hxu66JyGdelWdwWI

Do u think watching a tut like this helps

[open yarrow]

i will sk,ip to a random point in the video and watch for 10 seconds

yes but using attributes for stun is probably not a good idea

also

use task library

[sacred lotus]

Okay

Should i use values rather than attributes

[open yarrow]

not sure, havent made a stun system in a while

i personally had issues when using attributes for stun but you could probably do it

[formal crescent]

is there a difference between 1 client & 1 server script -> modules vs. multiple client/server scripts, which is more efficient?

[brave anvil]

can anyone reccomend me a good thorough scripting guide, i just finished the smartyrbx one from 2 years ago

[junior oxide]

for a little insipration and an idea of what to do, yes.

[tiny obsidian]

chat

[feral plank]

Brawldev advanced script guide

he also has a gui script guide

[daring vine]

hey guys is having a password on a remotefunction good when the client is making heavy requests to the server or nah?

[modern rover]

ima learn more tomorrow

i learned many things today w

[dark juniper]

you have to specify the password in the local script right

[daring vine]

yeah

but a exploiter wouldnt know it

[dark juniper]

how

They can read the local scripts

[daring vine]

oh fr?

i never heard of that

[dark juniper]

yea they can’t edit them though

[daring vine]

dang alright

whats another way then

[dark juniper]

Well, what your suggesting is basically knit

A Roblox module

But knit is kinda bad

So you need to find a different one

[daring vine]

well alright ill try,

everythings server sided so it might be fine

[dark juniper]

do you even have a game out

yes or no

If so then why are you worrying about exploiters

That’s for fixing when there’s a problem

You aren’t really supposed to understand it till you have a game with players

[daring vine]

future proofing, u never know if ur game is gonna blow up in a year or something

[dark juniper]

0.01% chance it does

[daring vine]

yes i do

[daring vine]

ik but u never know

[dark juniper]

Does it have exploiter reports

[daring vine]

the game thats out has 3.2m visits

[dark juniper]

If you think like this

You will just waste your time on useless stuff

just make a game brodie

[daring vine]

id rather have a secure game thatll never blow up then a weak security game with alot of players

[dark juniper]

i see

If you wanna stay in the 99% that’s your choice

[daring vine]

i guess so

[edgy sonnet]

Local Air
If air = very true
If not = very false
end

Check my meme script

that’s not even gonna work 😹

[modern rover]

whats this

i never did this in my 1 hour of learning lua

[dark juniper]

Where’s your metatable

🤨

[modern rover]

how to send codes like this

like he sent

with black bg and colourd text

[dark juniper]

ctrl C ctrl V

[modern rover]

eh

did not work

[dark juniper]

You send ‘’’

at the beginning of code

Then same at end

For example

[modern rover]

which smbol is this

[dark juniper]

Hello
’’’ apple’’’
end

nvm

[modern rover]

‘’’ local var‘’’

.

@brittle solar

how to send codes like u sent

[dark juniper]

It’s one of these

[modern rover]

pizza was tasty when i ate it

ohh

[dark juniper]

Hello

Apple
end

[umbral carbon]

pizza was tasty when i ate it

bro

[dark juniper]

😂

[modern rover]

i was testing colours

hey how did u send code here

w colours n all

[dark juniper]

@modern rover

[modern rover]

i started luau 1 hour ago

chillax

[dark juniper]

yea start reading

U will use the docs

A lot

[modern rover]

exam tmrw i will read that

[modern rover]

yyeah

i watched no tutorial

i am doing everything using these

[dark juniper]

even more reason to read

get to reading noob

[modern rover]

i will read after exams

[dark juniper]

How long it tommorow

24 hours?

you have plenty of time

[modern rover]

its today its 1 am here

[somber dew]

can anyone explain pairs, ipairs and for loops in a simple way? i cant seem to understand them after many videos

[latent gust]

pairs loops over all pairs in the table, you use it when your table is a dictionary or just not simple indexes. there's no ordering.

ipairs is for when your table is array-like, where keys are consecutive numbers like 1,2,3

[mental hawk]

Ew

[brittle solar]

type ` 3 times and with no spaces language of what syntax highlight you want, then after writing code close it with another 3 ``

[wide lodge]

ipairs is basically like this in c under the hood:

for (unsigned int i = 1; i <= tbl.length; ++i) { // code here
}

pairs actually grabs the keys and values

and does some iterator magic

that's why ipairs is a tad faster than pairs for iterating through arrays

also why ipairs ensures a consistent ordering of indexes to be iterated through

where it goes from 1 to the end of the array consistently

[brittle solar]

idk i just use ipairs with GetChildren arrays

[wide lodge]

whereas with pairs since it's grabbing keys from a hashmap

there's no guarantee of consistent ordering in a hash map

and therefore pairs will not have consistent ordering

[somber dew]

that helps a lot with what it does yeah

im just also confused on like where you would have to use this

i see it being used a lot in different ways but never understand why

[wide lodge]

you can squeeze some performance out for free with ipairs

if you are working with arrays

[somber dew]

alright

thank you

[ruby fiber]

WWWWWW META TABLE EPIC

did anyone check my game out 😦

[heavy rover]

in a server script how can i get the direction a player is looking, player is in first person

so if i use humanoid rootpart it deosnt account for y axis

[latent gust]

Camera.CFrame.LookVector in a LocalScript and pass it to the server via a RemoteEvent

[heavy rover]

yeah but i need the lookvector all the time

its a loop

for dragging items

[latent gust]

🤷

[heavy rover]

oh wait

[latent gust]

thats how you do it

[heavy rover]

i just need to pass networkownership of part right

to the client

and client can move on server

right?

[latent gust]

yes

[heavy rover]

nice man

thanks for helping

[foggy fiber]

Whattttt

[hasty cedar]

How much would it realistically cost for someone to make a rocket launcher weapon system?

[latent gust]

1-3k

[hasty cedar]

Any recommendations for top devs who are able to do so?

[latent gust]

no

[hasty cedar]

bet

thank you

[latent gust]

top dev wouldnt do it for 1-3k

find some mid level schmo

#scripter-hirable

[hasty cedar]

bet

was just too lazy to post

[carmine yacht]

you needa do some algorithm to get a fast large sort

like table.find shit

[carmine yacht]

what 1-3k lmfao

in what world

@hasty cedar what do you need for the rocket launcher

[somber vault]

yo

[carmine yacht]

@latent gust why did you clown me

[latent gust]

the shoe fits

[hasty cedar]

Come DM

[carmine yacht]

ur a dunce bro giving some 3k$ quote for a rocket launcher lmfao

just because you don't know how to calculate basic physics doesn't mean that someones gonna charge 3k

classic programming bot

[latent gust]

imagine being so unintelligent, so low down the evolutionary ladder you can't tell what a robux quote is vs a usd quote is

[fossil salmon]

3k what

[latent gust]

then imagine for a second being that same trogoldyte who has the nerve to dispute receiving a clown emoji

[stiff ibex]

do ```lua
return "rbxassetid://00000"

if you're doing a list

then do

return {
   anim = "rbxassetid://00000",
   anim2 = "rbxassetid://"
}

[carmine yacht]

i do not deal in robux

imagine being angry someone disagreed with you

😭 this guy only responds when i disappear

[hushed ore]

im a genuis

how do i turn it into a video bruv

[fossil salmon]

ip grabber

[stiff ibex]

nobody can see it

use smth like OBS or the Windows Snip & Sketch

[hushed ore]

oh ok

[foggy fiber]

oh alright

[carmine yacht]

wmv to mp4

[stiff ibex]

it's a whole lot useful instead of having to define the table then return it

[foggy fiber]

Ok thanks

oh yh thats true

[fossil salmon]

lvl 0 noob ahh promotion

Hello, how can I learn about advanced scripting because i know base but I need more

And how can I make post in hire channel

[sour tusk]

ipairs is actually slowest

[hollow hemlock]

they're all equally as fast

[sour tusk]

negligible most of the time so not like you should care typically
but ipairs is still slowest nonetheless

[hollow hemlock]

it is very much not

[sour tusk]

O0, O2, native
1e3 members and 1e3 iterations

they all use the same traversal code but ipairs require termination check

[hollow hemlock]

how are you benchmarking it?

mind sharing

I AM NOT HIRING YET BUT HOW MUCH WOULD U GUYS NORMALLY CHARGE FOR A JOB LIKE THIS?

Features:

• Opening Cutscene:
  "Welcome to Wipeout! Brace yourself for wild obstacles, epic battles, and unforgettable wipeouts. Only the best will survive. Are you ready?"

• Round Selection:
  After each round, players return to the waiting area. At the end of a 10-second intermission, a roulette UI with all maps plays an animation and selects one. Ensure the intermission is long enough for map loading.

• Match Tracker:
  Track player progress and display stats.

• Coin Distribution:
  Coins for placement (e.g., 1st: 150, 2nd: 100, etc.), plus bonus for eliminations (10 coins each).

• Victory Screen:
  Top 3 players emote on the podium.

• Optimized Map Handling:
  Store maps in ReplicatedStorage or ServerStorage, spawn them in the workspace during rounds to optimize performance.

• Course Types:

  • Timed Courses: Reach the end before time runs out. Falling into water respawns but lets players continue.
  • Instant Elimination Courses: Falling into water eliminates the player, used in baton (1v1 sword) matches.

Notes:

I can handle cutscenes. Match system needs refinement and optimization.

Timeline:

Expect 2 weeks for implementation, including testing and adjustments.

What needs improving

[rough glen]

gentlemen

[inland bay]

the z fighting on the left

💔

[rough glen]

is it possible to make a terrain chunk loading system

[inland bay]

obv

[onyx patrol]

nausiating camera

[rough glen]

how would one go about doing it

[inland bay]

what are you confused abt in regards to it

[rough glen]

unloading terrain

[inland bay]

unload the parts

💔

[trail turtle]

Is the ui and run animation good?

[rough glen]

what parts

its terrain

how does that work

[inland bay]

you couldve meant terrain gen from parts lol

[inland bay]

just delete the terrain

💔

[rough glen]

bro what

[inland bay]

whats so confusing

💀

[rough glen]

i need to load it back in

[inland bay]

then place it back

shocker

[rough glen]

right

except

how

is the large question

[inland bay]

wdym how

💀

[rough glen]

how do you do that

[inland bay]

the same way you initially placed it

[rough glen]

i dont think you understand the point of this

its supposed to be chunk loading for terrain

[inland bay]

awesome

[rough glen]

how am i going to do this with a script

[inland bay]

whats so confusing

do you know how to script

[rough glen]

no but im trying to get info

[inland bay]

yeah explains a lot

[rough glen]

do you know how

[inland bay]

brother 💔

[rough glen]

i see a programming role

[inland bay]

just have a table to keep track of map data

and then place the terrain based on where the humanoid is or sm

[rough glen]

alright sounds simple

[inland bay]

it is

its like 150 loc max

[late nexus]

The ARMS in the walking animation and the position of the GUIset "Choose Titan" I think(my opinion ig)

Tf u taking about

I was asking if anyone knew HOW to replicate with

Not saying I did do it

Read brother🙏

[white orbit]

whos a known scripter for rpg scripting combat system etc.

Do you want some hot chocolate?

[carmine yacht]

Man fuck this at least once a day these kids make me rage Im just trying to contribute to the community

[rigid citrus]

Yk in tsb if u uppercut someone with saitama how would I replicate the backflip effect

[summer plume]

how to confuse someone's code.

1. ruin ur code that won't modify.
2. better make more weirder

[umbral carbon]

Have bad variable naming

And make useless functions

👌

[summer plume]

[jaunty wolf]

can you show an example of what it looks like

[last jewel]

someone please explain to me what is “FartPlz”

i cant comprehend this

[empty badger]

hey can you tell me what app did u use for recording ?

[last jewel]

prolly medal

[empty badger]

search in replicated storage for remote event called FartPlz

[last jewel]

why does that event exist..

oh wait ur telling me to do this

i cant rn i got off 😞

[empty badger]

idk the one who coded that has some ideas in his mind

[nova yarrow]

is this good structure ```lua
local CombatInfo = {}

export type Skill<T> = {
name: string;
SkillHandler: (self: T) -> ();
}

export type CombatInfo<T> = {
Name: (string);
configs: {};
MeleeCount: number;
MeleeSounds: {Sound};
MeleeAnims: {Animation};
Damage: {number | {number}};
Skills: {Skill: {name: string, SkillHandler: (self: T) -> ()}};
SkillAnims: {name: string, anim: Animation | {Animation}};
SkillSounds: {name: string, sound: Instance};
coolDownDebounce: boolean;
Punch: (self: T) -> ();
}

return CombatInfo

[empty badger]

what is that

[nova yarrow]

combat info

[umbral carbon]

Good enough

[umbral carbon]

Structs like in C

I guess

[jaunty wolf]

depending on how your game works, you can make a stat called Progenitor that refers to another existing skill. So then any stats that you dont give entries for it defaults to that other skill. if you want a lot of skills this makes it very easy to make new ones

[empty badger]

oh thats why it's hard to understand

[umbral carbon]

It’s kind of like an object, you give it properties and actions you can do with it, but for structs, there are no actions/methods

[empty badger]

nice i never tried it

[trail pivot]

How long does it take to completely learn how to code cuz ive been coding for 1-2 months now small breaks here and there but i completely know the basics and gui but the thing is i dont understand none of the advanced scripting how long does it take for someone to learn that

[umbral carbon]

It would take 1 month

It took me only 1 or 2 weeks to learn JavaScript though, but Roblox Studio topics take longer than usual

So we’ll say 1 month if you have a decent course

And be sure to make some projects after learning

[trail pivot]

Alr thanks for the explanation and tips

[tawdry trout]

Ohhh

I gotchu one sec

[tawdry trout]

Mb bro

[tidal owl]

you have to mess around with stuff you never done before to learn

Same way how you messed with GUI’s and searching up tutorials on how to make a specific code, is how you gonna learn to do different stuff like modules and such

[tawdry trout]

Just search up or play jujutsu shenanigans and you’ll see

It’s voxel destruction

[trail pivot]

Yeah your right i actually kinda learned more by experimenting then by watching tutorials

[hasty mesa]

then just search that up

[jaunty wolf]

within a few months you should be able to make a version of basically any game

and then after a year you start becoming really efficient about it (making a good version of something, sometimes even the most efficient version)

just keep making games, i think games are good for learning because you cover a ton of different concepts.

[tidal owl]

With coding you can’t really learn to code everything in general. You’ll have to learn specific things like raycast, cframes, tweens etc

But yeah I experimented with other people’s code or testing myself by making it on my own. And sometimes went on dev forum whenever I had a problem and looked through posts with a topic that involved mine that I need troubleshooting

[tawdry trout]

No for the reference

[tight spear]

i use OBS

[tough grove]

Guys i am new to coding and in this game there is a system that lets you make a path and it fills up after

i want to know how to pull off the same thing

Not sure if you guys can get the image of this

Like what functions should my code have?

[somber vault]

someone know how to script?

[robust harness]

i have question

how the hell do yall know how to code

its soo hard

im builder with 2 years of expirince and i just cant do nothing

[somber vault]

can anyone tell me whats wrong in this script ? the cats dont spawn nor the timer works. i am using Knit Framework.

-- serverscript

please ping me if you found the error. thanks!

[zenith light]

is anyone able to make a movement system like nicos next bot willing to pay any price

[dark juniper]

everything since it’s knit framework

[half breach]

should knockback be entirely on server or a fireallclients() thing

[dark juniper]

I think server should be fine

Since characters have network ownership

[half breach]

it feels a bit laggy on server

[dark juniper]

So body velocity works

[dark juniper]

are you using it on npcs

Or players

[half breach]

players

[dark juniper]

actually?

can you send vid

[half breach]

yeah, would you like to playtest?

[dark juniper]

yes

Dm game

[half breach]

put it in startercharacterscripts

[wraith spear]

        CycleCameras(1)

        CycleCameras(-1)
        fov = normalfov
        updateCamInfo()
    end)
        
        presetButton.MouseButton1Click:connect(function()
            if adminpriv == true or currentCamera.CamLock.Value == false then
                net:FireServer("CALL",currentCamera)
                workspace.CurrentCamera.FieldOfView = math.clamp(workspace.CurrentCamera.FieldOfView+1, minFov, maxFov)
                Zoom(currentCamera.PosRecall.Z.Value-workspace.CurrentCamera.FieldOfView)
                wait(1)
                Zoom(currentCamera.PosRecall.Z.Value-workspace.CurrentCamera.FieldOfView)
            end
        end)
        
        presetButton.MouseButton2Click:connect(function()
            if adminpriv == true or currentCamera.CamLock.Value == false then
                net:FireServer("SET",currentCamera,math.ceil(math.clamp(workspace.CurrentCamera.FieldOfView,minFov,maxFov)))
            end
        end)``` is there a way to get multiple presets for my ptz instead of just 1? 

(Sorry if its hard to read)

[patent bison]

procedurally animate how to do it

[copper apex]

Here is my simple round system using a main lua script that controls the game
https://gyazo.com/ecce71d441d8eb6043dfe5adbc3172a7

This was one of the first few projects I did, thought it would be a good game to remake

The idea is simple, who has more aura? pick a side...

[pallid plover]

is userinputservice the best way to implement input registration?

[pallid plover]

oh contextactionservice exists im dumb

[woeful gate]

how does ykk pull it off

the last time i checked the playercount on that game it was 40 players

[tough grove]

Marketting probably and they have a following

and AD's too

everything is easy when you have money

Hi
Here's a little celestial repulsion & attraction system I'm experimenting with.

I use a force calculation based on distance squared (an inverse law) for each object within a circularly defined radius, which creates an effect of repulsion or attraction whose intensity varies according to proximity to the center, with several modes for attraction.

U need give a function in your connect. Like this:
local function OnJoinFunction()
—your code
end

Players.PlayersAdded:Connect(OnJoinFunction)

[hot wraith]

Thanks for the feedback, indeed, normally the system would ignore the player, but I hadn't thought of that, thanks!

[empty sleet]

Right now, I think your connect look like this: Players.PlayerAdded:Connect()

Guys, I am a new scripter and I am confused on how tweening works, can someone explain it to me simply?

[jaunty wolf]

you Create the tween and then you can play it as many times as you want.
what is it youre trying to make?

[empty sleet]

for tweenservice u need start value, end value and local this settigns

[jaunty wolf]

it usually has 3 parts.

--tweenInfo is kind of a stat page for your tween.
local tweenInfo = TweenInfo.new(
    2, -- Time
    Enum.EasingStyle.Linear, -- EasingStyle
    Enum.EasingDirection.Out, -- EasingDirection
    -1, -- RepeatCount (when less than zero the tween will loop indefinitely)
    true, -- Reverses (tween will reverse once reaching its goal)
    0 -- DelayTime
)

--this is where you make the actual tween.
local YourTween = TweenService:Create(part, tweenInfo, { Position = Vector3.new(0, 30, 0) })

YourTween:Play() --everytime this runs, it moves the part to the goal position.

youll understand it only if you use it.

chat gpt

[silver verge]

documentation

[jaunty wolf]

this is from the roblox doc website

it has a lot of code for u to copy paste

[empty sleet]

If I see any comments in code, I think is write chat gpt

[jaunty wolf]

your code should have comments

[empty sleet]

it's base for chat gpt

[jaunty wolf]

its also for you in the future too

[empty sleet]

Yes, but chat gpt comment all functions and variables

[jaunty wolf]

ya well he is a beginner so i figured hed be curious about what the 3 individual parts did

for something i am making for myself there would be different comments

[shell stream]

girl read the documentation

[jaunty wolf]

thats hard for beginners

[shell stream]

if u cant read docs im not sure how roblox dev will work out for u

because it has code examples

[jaunty wolf]

u learn in time its just difficult at the very start

getting help on discord makes things go faster

[shell stream]

a question like this i assure u u could get an answer faster in chatgpt or smth

[jaunty wolf]

yeah actually chatgpt is good for this kind of task

[empty sleet]

Chat gpt can't handle complex questions when you're already asking it something very in-depth.

[jaunty wolf]

ya but if u want a boilerplate tween its good for that

it wont get the syntax or anything wrong

[empty sleet]

When I work this roblox-ts, I have any problems with syntax. Chat gpt can't work normally with typescript in roblox

[plain olive]

can you turn .mesh files into unions

[stuck radish]

#modeling , but why would you ever want that

this isnt a modeling thing

this would be a code thing

everyone keeps saying that

but its really interesting

Should I use datatime for daily/weekly quests and reset them dependently on them and how could I exactly check the difference in days depending on the date it returns?

[sage mango]

is there a way to delete excess connections? they will take up space in memory even after the entire object has been destroyed. for example:

local r = Instance.new('BindableEvent',workspace)
local con = r.Event:Connect(function() end) print(con.Connected) -- true
r:Destroy()
print(con) -- Connection (it is not nil)

[worn sigil]

hey

can anyone help me become a advanced scripter

i am a basic scripter

[covert pewter]

You log the Connection as a variable, once you want to get rid of it just call :Disconnect() on the variable 👍

[sage mango]

If I disconnect the connection then it returns the .Connected as false meaning it is NOT nil

[covert pewter]

Doesn't mean that the code stopped listening no?

If it doesn't listen it doesn't use recources

[hot wraith]

A trail system to be adapted (Attack etc...) and a crater system, they lack a lot of detail but here's the skeleton.

[surreal sky]

can someone help me i dont understand why my tween is not working

[ocean mesa]

Have you tried setting the connection variable to nil after calling disconnect?? The GC should do the rest afaik

[old valley]

i am expert of tweens come dm

[surreal sky]

lol

i just gave up and deleted the script

[old valley]

CTRL+Z

[surreal sky]

but i alr closed studio will undo still work?

[old valley]

nope

[surreal sky]

dyum

[old valley]

just tell me what do u try to make?

[worn sigil]

yo anyone wanna make a new game with me

as i wanna make my first game

[surreal sky]

i tried to make like when the part is touched by the player its can collide is false and transparency is 0 obv with a tween but when i tried it an error popped up saying workspace.part.weld cannot do touched or smt like that

[old valley]

this is so easy just use Chatgpt

[surreal sky]

and the parts sisnt even have welds

[worn sigil]

CHATGPT

kingkong

[surreal sky]

sup

[worn sigil]

wanna make a game

[surreal sky]

abt what?

Plus if you are a scripter what do you need me for?

[worn sigil]

idk but thinking of a rpg

[old valley]

what u enemy of chatgpt?💀
