guys im tryna learn how to make my own ui healthbar. i dont like the roblox-made one. its boring. i made my own, and i want to know how to script it. i dont wanna check for the health and if the health is this then the size is this

waxen echo
outer bridge
#

just the one that appears on the screen when you take damage at the top right corner

#

i made the frame's size 100 pixels (offset) so that its easier to make

#

after i finish ill turn it to scale

waxen echo
#

Ok simple enough just get the variables you need like player, character, humanoid

#

Well put a script inside the health bar

#

A local script

outer bridge
#

okay obviously i done that alr lol

waxen echo
#

Show me the current code

#

You can dm if u want

outer bridge
#

wait i forgot if the hum is in char or plr

#

if u can see i know the basics of scripting

#

like remote events etc

waxen echo
#

Is that the whole script rn?

outer bridge
#

yes lol

waxen echo
#

You can set the variables first at the top

#

And then create a function

outer bridge
#

ill do it in the function

waxen echo
#

After connect the event at the end

outer bridge
#

i wont need them anywhere else

outer bridge
waxen echo
#

Like this humanoid.HealthChanged:Connect(updateHealth)

outer bridge
#

ahhh

waxen echo
#

So u connect the event to the updatehealth will be the function u connect

#

Humanoid will be the variable u set at the for getting the humanoid

outer bridge
#

ik bro ๐Ÿ˜ญ

#

im not that bad ๐Ÿ˜ญ

waxen echo
#

But basically

outer bridge
#

go ahead

waxen echo
#

local function updateHealth()
local healthPercent = humanoid.Health / humanoid.MaxHealth
healthBar.Size = UDim2.new(healthPercent, 0, 1, 0)
if textLabel then
textLabel.Text = math.floor(humanoid.Health) .. " / " .. humanoid.MaxHealth
end
end

#

Then connect the :healthChanged event to this function

charred night
outer bridge
#

whats wrong

bleak glade
waxen echo
#

local plr = game.Players.LocalPlayer
local char = player.Character or player.CharacterAdded:Wait()
local hum = character:WaitForChild("Humanoid")
local healthBarUi = script.Parent:WaitForChild("Frame"):WaitForChild("HealthBarName")
local bar = script.Parent:WaitForChild("Frame"):FindFirstChild("TextLabel")

dim sentinel
charred night
#

WHO in their RIGHT MIND does :WaitForChild("CHARACTER")

outer bridge
bleak glade
bleak glade
#

Humanoid :: Humanoid

waxen echo
#

U dont need to

bleak glade
#

i know its just better

charred night
#

Why is there no WaitForChildOfClass

outer bridge
#

thats what it looks like btw

outer bridge
charred night
bleak glade
outer bridge
#

bruh

#

i cant be that bad

charred night
#

No way it works gang

waxen echo
#

Local functions should be outside the scope

outer bridge
#

idk i havent tested it and now ur making me not want to

charred night
#

bro nevermind that he isnt even calling the function

#

๐Ÿคฃ

bleak glade
#

hum:Getproperychangedsignal

#

well health changed is one that works too iirc

charred night
waxen echo
#

The update health function should be defined on line 1 outside the scope of .PlayerAdded

outer bridge
waxen echo
charred night
outer bridge
bleak glade
outer bridge
#

done

#

localplayer

waxen echo
#

Needs to be defined outside the scope put it at the top

outer bridge
#

like that?

charred night
#

JUST RUN YOUR GAME

outer bridge
charred night
#

Guy is trolling

#

Mods, kill him

outer bridge
waxen echo
#

No you are trying to define a function inside the function

outer bridge
outer bridge
bleak glade
waxen echo
#

See this

outer bridge
#

yeah

charred night
#

thats not how it works

outer bridge
#

oh ohhh

#

oh

charred night
#

๐Ÿ’€...

bleak glade
#

lmfao i didnt realize he was trying to call it

waxen echo
#

U cant call a function inside

#

Well the function is inside

#

The code need to read the function before u connect it

outer bridge
#

then i call the function in where im selecting the script

bleak glade
waxen echo
#

Nice

outer bridge
waxen echo
#

U doing a good job

outer bridge
#

thanks

charred night
charred night
#

YOU PMO

outer bridge
charred night
#

WHY U TRYNA CODE INSIDE THE ARGS BRO ๐Ÿ’€

bleak glade
waxen echo
#

Yup you can just put the updateHealth function instead of an anonymous function

charred night
waxen echo
#

Ur doing great

waxen echo
#

At least ur a cat lol

outer bridge
#

only then did i realise i forgot

charred night
#

do you love the way idoshsb body

waxen echo
#

At least you are learning

#

So good job fr

outer bridge

#

youre ready for OOP

#

hey guys if you awnted to learn to script and develop games what would you do?

outer bridge
#

thats the equivilent of sleep paralys

charred night
outer bridge
bleak sky
#

how tho what do u use to learn

outer bridge
charred night
waxen echo
#

Dev forum

bleak glade
waxen echo
#

Roblox tutorials

outer bridge
#

maybe my brain if i am bored

waxen echo
#

Lua books

charred night
#

it almost certainly feels like new generation is unable to find informatio for themselves

bleak sky
#

ok cheers mate

waxen echo
#

Thats the best way to learn

outer bridge
charred night
# outer bridge i dont like devforum

Bud u cant even connect a function to the runservice you need to learn basic syntax and then check the roblox documentation before even touching the forum ๐Ÿ’”

tropic plume
#

if i were to make a dash system like TSB, should i use tweening and tween them 50 studs or so out? or is there a better method

waxen echo
#

Yeah documents are the best

charred night
#

i dont care that its deprecated its the only good thing

tropic plume
#

i see

waxen echo
#

Dash system?

#

Have you tried using animation and walk speed

charred night
tropic plume
#

ok , thanks!

charred night
waxen echo
#

When they shift it plays a animation then change the walk speed

bleak glade
waxen echo
charred stream
#

ive tried using linearvelocity for dashing but its too wonky

#

like they say its an improvement to bodyvelocity but it sucks

what buttons-

bleak glade
#

the ones on the inventory

waxen echo
#

X button

#

To close it easily

charred night
waxen echo
#

It looks good tho for proof of concept

charred stream
#

you should tween the item imgs to like grow when u hover over them

charred night
#

Alright

#

anything else?

charred stream

na its good

zinc monolith

When you collect the items it should confirm you collected it and tell you its been placed inside your inventory

You can use

if NumberMyUIRepresents then
   -- Connect your UI button stuff knowing your actual button number
else
   -- This isn't a numerical button if it reaches here
end

also dont use ipairs or pairs just directly reference the PartTable

okay then here's what i want to make i put 6 parts and gave them all the same tag now i have a script inside one part which gets a table of all the parts with that specific tag then for each of the parts in the table executes some code.This code is supposed to detect when the left mouse button is clicked then execute a tween which will increase the size of each parts going with the y - axis so , it will make the parts look like they are a wave.Thats all

surreal sky

in the explorer insert a clickdetector

after that u write clickdetector.MouseClick:Connect(function()

yeah mb im inna hurry and didnt assign it

surreal sky
charred stream
#

u want it to grow and shrink down to its original size right

surreal sky
#

yes

surreal sky
#

i saw there was a reverse parameter in the tween info and it said it would reverse it so i set it to true

charred stream

for _, part in PartTable do
local ClickDetector = part:FindFirstChildOfClass("ClickDetector")

if ClickDetector then
    ClickDetector.MouseClick:Connect(function()
        local size = part.Size
        local target = size * 1.5

        local tweenInfo = TweenInfo.new(3, Enum.EasingStyle.Quad, Enum.EasingDirection.Out)
        

        local grow = TS:Create(part, tweenInfo, {Size = target})

you have to assign the tweeninfo to a variable so u can reuse it

paste the whole thing i sent and

Are u trying to make the part grow up on the y axis

yess

am trying to make when any of the parts are clicked they all grow like up

#

ye am fucked i donno what even happening

waxen echo
#

Ohhh

#

Ok i see

night maple
#

I'm trying to make a crouch idle animation and an animation for when the player moves but I cant figure out when to play the idle animation, I need a way to constantly check if the player is moving

surreal sky
#

but when i put an asteric it does what the frickkkk

waxen echo
#

U can set it to reverse in tweeninfo

#

Instead of using shrink tween

surreal sky
waxen echo
#

Omg

surreal sky
#

lol

waxen echo
#

Target is not gonna work like that but you can do it like this

#

Wait you only want it to grow on the y axis? (Up / down)

#

local addY = math.random(10, 30)
local targetSize = part.Size + Vector3.new(0, addY, 0)

#

There that should fix it

#

Basically you want to get the parts size, then add a new vector3 to the parts size. This new vector3 has blank x & z values but a random amount as the y value. This will add the random amount only to the y axis of your parts size vector.

hey guys, if im storing a IntValue on client side, would it be client only?
would it update for the server

trim dove

if you cant then send the animation to the friend of yours and let him publish it in his own profile

tropic plume
#

also where would i need to store it for it to be local only

trim dove
#

simple

tropic plume
#

ohh ok

trim dove
#

instances are not needed for that

#

like intvalue

tropic plume
#

so if a GUI updates an IntValue for the player

tropic plume

i would need to put the IntValue in a localscript that needs it?

hot copper
#

What you guys think about roblox-ts, is worth using it? Is it better than using lua on roblox studio? Does it affect on compiling processes making it way slower?

lean ocean
#

not worth

hot copper
#

Why

lean ocean
#

you have to press ctrl s for every single small thing and also you can just use --!strict which is good enough

#

not worth it imo

hot copper
#

Whats that !stritc thing u said

lean ocean
#

strict typechecking

#

search it up

hot copper
#

Yeah i just found it

#

Jow do u install that?

it's a roblox studio feature

what should i read in docs

restive spoke
#

If I used attributes for blocking system in a combat game would it be more effective than creating / setting a bool value to true?

#

Cuz rn when I block, the client fires an event to the server to insert my player's name into an array where a damage function checks if the target's name is in that block table or not (meaning if it's in the array, it counts it as blocking).

#

And I'm not sure if there's a more faster blocking system that could be used.

How do you store player datas? I don't want to invoke DataStore everytime I need them, how and where do you store them?

charred night
# rotund pawn How do you store player datas? I don't want to invoke DataStore everytime I need...

U can get player data once the player joins and store it in some module. Note that only the server will have access to this data, because it wont replicate to the client
if you want to access it on both server and client, create value instances for your data inside the player and have some sort of 'Data' folder, that way your UI can also be reactive to the data (since values have .Changed events)

#

and then once the player leaves you can store the data again, tho i would opt in for periodic saves like every minute or so just in case

rotund pawn
#

Is there any specific reason to use module?
Right now I use playerID based StringValue in ServerStorage, which contains JSON datas, they are simple, few numbers. + Remote Functions to get datas

vocal tusk
#

Guys do you recommend me to do a stun system using setattribute? Is It safe from exploiters?

nimble coral
rotund pawn
charred night
#

tho using values for data seems to be more logical to me because you can have your UI react to it

static coral
static coral
charred night
rotund pawn
#

I have module that converts data to and from JSON, having public functions to Get Specific value (returns number/string), set Specific value,..

#

You can listen to .Changed on specific value in array?

static coral
#

this why i only use tables now

static coral
#

there is a built in way with HttpService

stoic stump
#

are bits frequently used in developing a game?

shell sentinel
#

yo

rotund pawn
#

Bcuz I am new to roblox developing and I like to have just one string value of data per Player ID

charred night
#

if you are obsessed with performance

stoic stump
#

do you make use of them frequently?

static coral
stoic stump
#

yeah i know, i meant it's libraries and so on

static coral
#

what?

#

you mean bit32?

stoic stump
#

hold on

#

so

rotund pawn
static coral
rotund pawn
#

Yeah I use that, I just have centralised Module in ReplStorage to handle data storage conversions, setting values and getting them

static coral
#

it also saves it as JSON when using datastore

stoic stump
#

im learning Lua through the "Programming in Lua" book, and there's this chapter called "Bits and Bytes" in which it discusses converting binary data into basic values and vice versa, as well as making dumps of binary files.

#

I'm asking if this has a role in developing a game

#

Because if it doesn't im gonna skip this chapter to save some time

static coral
#

r u trying to learn lua or roblox luau

rotund pawn
#

Bits and Bytes are basics of computer languages

stoic stump
#

After learning lua im jumping to LuaU so I also get deeper knowledge of the programming language

also as far as i know there is no point in learning binary conversion for luau

stoic stump
#

What about modules and packages?

#

Alright, thx for the tip

stoic stump
#

luau

wary star
static coral
#

modules are containers for code

#

packages allow you to update/change a model/script or whatever globally

stoic stump
#

Thanks for that

#

Look at these sub-chapters here. Which one do you think has close to no relevance/use in luau?

#

(I'm skipping the C API, of course)

stoic stump
static coral
#

oop is not real in luau

#

and metatables you will not ever really need to use unless you REALLY need specific behaviour for tables

#

just keep in mind that they exist incase you run into a very specific problem one day relating to tables

stoic stump
#

Yeah I'm keeping this book if one day I encounter such problems

round pivot
#

bro

#

this new picture on the discord

#

had me tripping

static coral
# static coral oop is not real in luau

and also oop can be โ€œsimulatedโ€ with metatables (but please dont cause its unoptimized and slow), but i recommend making deep copies of tables instead

#

also unrelated but

#

why u reading a whole ass book to learn roblox scripting ๐Ÿ˜ญ

stoic stump
#

I just thought the tutorials on youtube won't be as complete as this one book I bought

#

Or am I wrong

static coral
somber vault
#

oh you meant that erm

stoic stump
#

Yeah I know. I'm just trying to import some knowledges in the book that are relevant to Luau

static coral
#

learning lua is a good base for learning luau since you will know all the syntax basically by the time you start learning luau

stoic stump
#

That was my point of buying this book

#

True

#

But probably guessing from your response, it was too "over" to buy a whole book to learn luau

#

Should I just keep going

static coral
#

but at the same time luau is not really that difficult so you might confuse yourself or learn things in lua that dont exist in luau

stoic stump
#

How long do you think is the learning curve for luau

#

Based on your experience

static coral
#

but now its almost a year or just over i think

charred night
#

bro what is happening

#

you can learn lua in 3 days

#

its not that hard

#

its easier than python bro ๐Ÿ’”

somber vault
charred night
#

if youre talking about learning roblox engine then thats something else

charred night
somber vault
charred night
#

whatever you just said

somber vault
#

You can get the jist of any simple language in like a day its mostly the syntax you learn for roblox

#

cause its all built in

stoic stump
#

also

#

What are coroutines used for

somber vault
#

I mean Ig I wouldnt say its hard but yeah

somber vault
stoic stump
#

is it really simpler than I thought

static coral
stoic stump
#

yeah ill try

charred night
#

you will get nowhere trying to learn every singular aspect of the language, just learn the basics and start doing stuff in studio

static coral
#

ye

somber vault
static coral
#

dont read the entire book and expect to know everything since you wont know where to implement any of it

charred night
#

n the book has nothing to do with roblox

static coral
#

or how

somber vault
#

data structures and stuff would be more advanced and more for actual languages

#

I think advanced scripters use it but like you dont need it straight away

#

if your making a complex system than you would prob

charred night
#

the only time youll ever need data structures in roblox is when youre working with complex ai algorithms

#

๐Ÿ’€

somber vault
#

I mean data structures are purely for efficency anyways so its not really needed

charred night
somber vault
# stoic stump yeah ill try

I can try giveyou some resources if you want but the best are roblox forums, roblox documentation and help servers like this. Ai can help explain stuff I do that but I feel like im kinda as. I think if you use ai and than test yourself afterwards if you learned it than its fine.

stoic stump
#

Sure

somber vault
#

Idk if they use that but I wouldn't be suprised

AI that uses a gun

#

wait

shy bronze
#

hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

west sluice
#

does it have to be 250+ all together

#

or the 250 has to be in 1 script alone

shy bronze
#

1script 250 lines

#

yes

west sluice
#

hmmm

#

You can write a uhmmm

#

Oh!

#

Server Browser UI

shy bronze
#

what is that?

west sluice
#

like, a server browser for a game

shy bronze
#

i dont get it

west sluice
#

you can use API to get the games servers, which player can choose to join

shy bronze
#

ohhhhh

#

that thing

west sluice
#

itd show them the list of players, connection speed, etc

shy bronze
#

is it complex that it can take 250lines?

west sluice
#

well if you make it last long, yes

#

you gotta make a request to Roblox browser API, get the async, decode it, put it into UIs t hat you will clone, etc

#

you can surely make it last more than 250 lines

shy bronze
west sluice
#

Ah.. I see..

shy bronze
#

i think it take like 100

west sluice
#

What type of place are you trying to apply to though?

#

It may give you an upper hand to do something related to that community

shy bronze
#

what does that mean?

west sluice
#

Like for example

#

If you were to apply to be an adopt me game developer, making a gun system wouldnt really fit the things they want, yeah?

#

But making a system where pets would follow you would make it seem better

#

So its better to do things that are relatable or somewhat connected to the community you apply for

shy bronze
#

that doesnt exist just give a "decent" script for them

#

doesnt matter what it does

west sluice
#

Uh huh.. Hmm...

#

Are you good with HttpService?

shy bronze
#

nop

west sluice
#

Ah damn

shy bronze
#

but i can look for it

west sluice
#

Well you could make an AI chatbot with the ability to interract with object around them

#

or even be able to memorize past chats

shy bronze
west sluice
#

Hmm they want something from ground up?

shy bronze
#

i kinda made a "dog" ai lol i say smth and it do what ever i made it do

shy bronze
west sluice
#

Then if you wanna settle for something that will most likely work, Itd be smarter to do a system

#

like a gun system like they mentioned earlier

#

I hope you dont have a short timelimit though

shy bronze
#

not a problem the problem im not a modeller

#

๐Ÿ˜ญ

west sluice
#

Then youd wanna stick to UIs

shy bronze
#

customizable gun system would work but NO MODELS

west sluice
#

unless they'll allow you to use toolbox models

cedar flicker
#

There are plenty of models in sketchfab xd

shy bronze
west sluice
west sluice
#

not something too throttling though

#

choose something simple

shy bronze
#

alr i think ima go start

#

im not making the next arsenal

Well heres the thing though

shy bronze
west sluice
#

when you are publicly hiring a developer, youd have expectencies of the applier

#

but, If you apply to groups that you know lacks developments, youd have more chances

#

thats how I got to be developer for Aniphobia

#

Sometimes you just gotta ask "Do you hire developers?"

west sluice
shy bronze
west sluice
#

Scripting is just complex logic

pine torrent
shy bronze
west sluice
#

but bigger groups with higher member counts wont be able to

pine torrent
west sluice
#

But if you still need to rise from there, try to make relations first

#

get to know them, and secure your pay in advance

#

like take %50 in advance, and %50 when jobs done

west sluice
#

But if you dont wanna be scammed, yet wanna make a living
