[crude quarry]

This?

[plush zenith]

haha same maybe

[plush zenith]

yeah that, except show everything under your character

[plush zenith]

increase the size of your explorer window height-wise

it should be at least this big

[crude quarry]

What do you need it for?

[plush zenith]

cause im sure there's an Accessory in ur character called "Accessory" and that's why ur code works

but if any other player stepped on the brick, it would not work

[lucid pendant]

[somber vault]

i dont care anymore gng 😔

[plush zenith]

trying to create the super saiyan god

[plush zenith]

huh

that is really weird...

hold on a sec

[crude quarry]

I tested it with other accessory's and you're right it only removed the crown

[plush zenith]

thought as much

idk why it removed the crown anyways, but there's some changes we can make

give me a few seconds...

[crude quarry]

BEcause im skilled like that I guess

[somber vault]

local sp = script.Parent

sp.Touched:Connect(function(hit)
    local noid = hit.Parent:FindFirstChildOfClass("Humanoid")

         for _, child in ipairs(char:GetChildren()) do
            if child:IsA("Accessory") then
            if child.AccessoryType == Enum.AccessoryType.Hat then
            child:Destroy()
            task.wait(0.2) -- this is for looks gng :heart:

i have 3 dev products

[somber vault]

lmao

[celest cipher]

put the same fireclient script in em

and the onserver fired it

HOW DO I SEPERATE EM

[crude quarry]

I see what you're doing you're looking for the humanoid then looking for the player and looping the player looking for all the hats if they fall under that class

[plush zenith]

pass a string as a key

[celest cipher]

wdym

[somber vault]

add a second parameter for id (make it custom if u desire)

[crude quarry]

What I was doing was looking for the humanoid

[plush zenith]

second paramater showing which product is which

[copper apex]

https://gyazo.com/43ad4007a4594ce5ec0107f74447ade0
After an hour, finally got the highlighting correctly, hopefully..

[plush zenith]

then adding the amount based on that prodoct

for example: event:FireServer(productId, 250)

[somber vault]

thats awesome

howd u do that?

[lucid pendant]

easy

[plush zenith]

custom hotbar!!

[copper apex]

I made my own custom inventory.

[somber vault]

😱

really sherlock lmao

[copper apex]

Well, i just debugged to get it right

[somber vault]

https://streamable.com/i65poc

[somber vault]

were gonna need the other script as well

[celest cipher]

first do the script tho i need help asap

[celest cipher]

its listed there

[celest cipher]

@somber vault theres a divider between one onserver and one fireserver

[somber vault]

oh

[lucid pendant]

Chat yall think this worthy enough for skill role (my code got all the requirments) 🙏

[plush zenith]

@celest cipher

---------SERVER

local rs = game:GetService("ReplicatedStorage")
local giveshecklesevent = rs:WaitForChild("GiveSheckles")

local sheckleDevProductAmounts = {
    [3310530135] = 250
}

giveshecklesevent.OnServerEvent:Connect(function(plr, id)
    local leaderstats = plr:WaitForChild("leaderstats")
    local sheckles = leaderstats:WaitForChild("Sheckles")
    sheckles.Value += sheckleDevProductAmounts[id]

-----------CLIENT

local button = script.Parent
local mps = game:GetService("MarketplaceService")

            --[[
            only send the id, not the amount. an exploiter can hack their client and send 1000000 to the server
            ]]
            givesheckleevent:FireServer(devproduct) 
        end
    end
end)

[celest cipher]

explain

[patent night]

why in code people create folders within the code rather than making the folder itself?

[lucid pendant]

what the sigma

[somber vault]

wait how does that table work 🤯

i forgot how they work yo

[lucid pendant]

whats ur issue

[patent night]

should i show an example?

[plush zenith]

so im only sending the ID instead of the amount, cause an exploiter can hack the client and send a big amount to the server

[marsh kelp]

well sometimes you can't go in studio and make a folder inside new players

[plush zenith]

and then i added a dictionary on the server to organize products and amounts neatly

[somber vault]

nvm i got the idea

[patent night]

okay thank you

[somber vault]

idea

calm luh

[obsidian hedge]

also

if not (leaderstats and sheckles) then return end

[somber vault]

thats smart

[plush zenith]

good catch

[obsidian hedge]

thanks

[plush zenith]

man i wanna drop some of my game internals here ngl, its fun talking about this

[somber vault]

wdym game internals?

r u making a game

🥶

[plush zenith]

hehe yup

[somber vault]

same

[plush zenith]

smash bros in roblox

[somber vault]

my game im making.... is a wee bit confusing

but i thnk i got it

[plush zenith]

wont be done till maybe 2026-2027

trailer coming out late 2025 or early 2026

[somber vault]

gta VI ahh gtfo

😭

[plush zenith]

HAHAHHHA

[patent night]

sorry i'm a bit new, but is getservice essentially finding a part within the game?

[plush zenith]

to be fair im only one person

but i plan on getting more devs by posting demos online and letting people test

[somber vault]

no it finds one of the existing services roblox creates for you, getService just finds one of the existing services

[plush zenith]

that's one of the best ways to get good devs on your team. showing that you can do well on your own

that's something people don't get

[celest cipher]

i get it

[plush zenith]

(im looking at the percentage payment users)

its gonna have rollback netcode EHHAEHEAHAEH

[patent night]

i get it thank you

[plush zenith]

took 5 months to get the rollback right, but i finally got it

[somber vault]

whats rollback

yo

[plush zenith]

idk if this is a good way to explain it, but:

its a networking solution used mostly in fighting games. both users predict their opponent's inputs

when an input change is detected, the local client rolls the remote client's game state back to the frame where the inputs change, then frames are resimulate usinng the new inputs

[celest cipher]

theres diff types of services, lets say u open a door that lets u do other things, get service is basically getting a service that has different abilities and such.

for local players = game:GetService("Players") it would give u the ability to do players.playeradded:connect(function()

end

playeradded is apart of players service, its rlly good bc when a player is added/joins the game it will run a function

[plush zenith]

and this makes it so both clients are synced up again

[somber vault]

they got the idea

[civic garnet]

wat

[plush zenith]

for me, i plan on doing rollback for more than 2 players

up to 6 players

[somber vault]

gulp

[civic garnet]

getservice tries to find the service, if it doesnt exist it creates it

[somber vault]

can i be a tester 🥺

[civic garnet]

for finding the service you want to use FindService()

[plush zenith]

hahaha reach out to me in 2026

😹

[somber vault]

🥲

[plush zenith]

that's a thing?

[somber vault]

lemme see it as rn

[patent night]

okay i got the service part but what's does putting it as the value of a variable do?

[plush zenith]

luau goes crazy

[celest cipher]

@plush zenith ts line is the error code

[somber vault]

its a shortcut

[plush zenith]

so right now im making like a "good copy" from previous copies of the game so far. ima show you guys

[rotund valley]

guys what would you recommend someone who is just starting to code to do?

[celest cipher]

help me aaa

[patent night]

but within his code it's not being used

[somber vault]

if i anchor the whole character will an animation still work on it?

[plush zenith]

so what's nil?

[somber vault]

try some trial and error to see which part determines the rotation, if you want to be more precise

[celest cipher]

idk

[somber vault]

no

[river beacon]

okay

[somber vault]

sheckles

[celest cipher]

[celest cipher]

HELP ME

IM SO MAD RN

[plush zenith]

this means the 3 local scripts are connected to the same button

[celest cipher]

hfpohviqwehvopewqnbvwevw

if its sending 3 times, then 3 scripts are each using 1 buttonm

[celest cipher]

they're in one button each

theres 3 buttons

[somber vault]

name the buttons differently

😎

[plush zenith]

i think under the hood, roblox adds a UUID to every instance

[celest cipher]

one for a devproduct that gives 1000, one gives 250, and one gives 5000

Hey guys, I know a lot about scripting, but don't know what to start with to form a portfolio
Can y'all give me suggestions?

[urban coyote]

(as long as they don't require models, I do UI designing although, so it can be something related to UI)

[civic garnet]

just make systems and shit

inventory system, combat system, whatever

[urban coyote]

I make shit on the daily pal

[civic garnet]

then add that shit onto your portfolio

the fuck??

[urban coyote]

I don't know, it's all lost somewhere in the sewage now

[atomic palm]

Hi ya'll i've been having issues with my Animations loading for me, but no one who play tests the game can see them (either solo testing or team testing) , what am I doing wrong 💔

[civic garnet]

upload them to a group and use those, also make sure the game's owner is the group

or i think there is a way to make animations public idr

[atomic palm]

how do i upload them to a group or make the animations public

I already transfered the game from me to my public group

[civic garnet]

you make the animation, when you upload to roblox just set the owner to a group

[somber vault]

this isnt even lua

[civic garnet]

it is luau

your ragebait does not work on me

0/10 ragebait

[somber vault]

local function func(info)
    local userId = info.PlayerId
    local productId = info.ProductId
    print(userId, productId)
end

func("RehizVI", 33345886)

thats literally your code

it doesnt work

🤯

[plush zenith]

yessirrrr

[civic garnet]

wrong

[plush zenith]

@celest cipher enjoy ur sleep 🥴

[civic garnet]

just plain old wrong

[plush zenith]

he got the code working boys

[civic garnet]

0/10 ragebait again

[plush zenith]

butter cooked

[somber vault]

its literally the same thing 🥀

[plush zenith]

what are you guys talking abt

oh

OH

ah heck nah

[somber vault]

this genius is rambling about not working code

[plush zenith]

yall two clowns shut the heck up

[somber vault]

😢

[crude quarry]

Language

[celest cipher]

yay, but one question, @plush zenith @civic garnet how did yall do tht code without events? i was tryna do it with events but i didnt learn anything cuz we didnt do events. can u fill my brain with knowledge pls

[atomic palm]

I already upload the animations from my account but not from the group how I set the owner to a group, or make the animations public ?

[civic garnet]

read documentation please

[plush zenith]

the events happen internally when you use MarketplaceService

[celest cipher]

slide me it

[celest cipher]

or js tell me what it means

[plush zenith]

internal remoteevents and http calls are made

[civic garnet]

roblox documentation on google

[celest cipher]

what does that mean

[plush zenith]

the documentation can explain it better

id explain it if i wasn't doing other stuff rn

[lucid pendant]

yes sir it worked

[somber vault]

slide a clip

🥶

[plush zenith]

actually i shouldn't have mentioned http calls since that's not important for this

[atomic palm]

how do i set owner to group for animations

[lucid pendant]

w walk anim

[somber vault]

you dont

[civic garnet]

player click funny button, roblox's own service (marketplace service) prompts a purchase (dev product), marketplace service fires an event on the server which you have to handle (ProcessReceipt) ahaha funny you get whatever you bought

[somber vault]

idk

[plush zenith]

in order to own the animation, it has to be in ur inventory

[celest cipher]

bro js tell me what makes the script connect like a event

[plush zenith]

im trying to find a good way to put it hold up

[civic garnet]

just reupload them to the group

[somber vault]

when its fired it sends out a signal that the server gets 🦐

idk

[civic garnet]

basically

[atomic palm]

how do i reupload an animation in the group

[plush zenith]

this makes a box appear

[civic garnet]

holy fucking shit

[somber vault]

short temper butter...

[plush zenith]

when you click purchase, it sends an event to the server. the code for that exists but its stored under the service (we don't see it)

[somber vault]

😔

[civic garnet]

you open roblox studio, open the animation, upload to roblox with group as owner

[atomic palm]

im sorry im new to this :(

[plush zenith]

there's a way to see it though i think. there's a setting in roblox

[civic garnet]

their ragebait is getting to me

[plush zenith]

@civic garnet see look at what ur doing

going full stackoverflow on the newbies

shame on you!

[lucid pendant]

pluhhh i messed it up

[celest cipher]

what does the info.productid and bracketed productid mean?

[somber vault]

no way that actually works

🥀

[civic garnet]

because ProcessReceipt passes in a info object

[plush zenith]

info represents an instance created when the server picks up the remote event when you click purchase

[craggy adder]

me and @atomic palm are doing this togetehr and have genuinly never done anything before we arnt ragebaiting (i wish we were man)

[somber vault]

ohh i had no clue

[civic garnet]

time to read documentation

[plush zenith]

its an instance holding the id of the player who purchased, and the id of the dev product

[somber vault]

i thought u were just using basic parameters 😵

[plush zenith]

@celest cipher sorry if you arne't getting a good explaination haha

[celest cipher]

yea lol

[somber vault]

are u one of those...

[plush zenith]

typically you won't get good explainations in hidden devs

[somber vault]

linux...?

[civic garnet]

yes i do use arch linux

[plush zenith]

people here are either too prideful or arrogant to help you

[somber vault]

DIE

[lucid pendant]

[civic garnet]

im on windows currently though

[somber vault]

LEAVE 🤬

[civic garnet]

i use neovim too

[somber vault]

its just a tween

[plush zenith]

anyways, what was i gonna do again?

[lucid pendant]

no i got the zipline good

[plush zenith]

right, my game internals

[lucid pendant]

im tyrna do sum else tho

[somber vault]

show a clip

[lucid pendant]

nah

i aint downloading nos ftware

🔥

[somber vault]

👅

[plush zenith]

silly

[somber vault]

i dont understand why people use module scripts for certian movements

[lucid pendant]

[somber vault]

could u explain

[celest cipher]

i need help, for this claim plot handler system my friend made it says this error code on line 66 whats the solution? @plush zenith @civic garnet

HELP ME

[civic garnet]

idfk go learn how to code

[celest cipher]

the game broke cuz of this error

[somber vault]

"i have a test"

[celest cipher]

IK GANG

[lucid pendant]

WWWW made it so u can fall off

[celest cipher]

MY GAMES BROKEN

😭

[plush zenith]

SEP (Single Entry Point) is easier for me to work with for something like this

[atomic palm]

what if I deleted all the rigs i used to make the poses for the animation how would I reupload it without having to start all over again?

[celest cipher]

@plush zenith do u know

[plush zenith]

ask someone else. but the problem isn't difficult to solve

[atomic palm]

I know how to publish animations to roblox and set it under group instead of me but I dont know how to reupload a already made animation by me if that makes sense?

[plush zenith]

when something is nil, lua will include whatever method or property you tried to access in the error message

for example

local thisIsNil = nil
nil.Cheese

"attempted to index nil with 'Cheese'"

@celest cipher so plantF is nil. figure out why

[civic garnet]

@somber vault jumpscare

[somber vault]

diddy blud diddy blud waht

[plush zenith]

[lucid pendant]

im lowky bored am doin whatever

😭

[plush zenith]

😭

nah these random pics are funny

[celest cipher]

idk why my friend left mid scripting

help me

[civic garnet]

should i use linked list for this signal implementation

[atomic palm]

how do I reupload these into my group pleas help 🙏

[celest cipher]

load the anims on a rig, then publish em again to roblox and make the owner ur group

[ember nimbus]

hi i'm struggling to understand this, can i have a red circle?

[civic garnet]

of course

[celest cipher]

gn yall

[civic garnet]

i dont have red circles but i have boxes

[plush zenith]

uhhh yeah totally

(idk what those are)

[ember nimbus]

this makes way more sense idk why you didn't do this in the first place

kind of a reflection on your CLEARLY low iq...

silly

(part of larger systerm that loads animations as keyframesequences)

(good for rollback netcode + any player can see animations, as they are now much motors6ds with CFrames)

[ornate stone]

what's the best way to link buttons to frames?

one approach I've been using is mapping the button to the frame via attribute, so the button would have an attribute like Shop, and then when you click it the script would look for a frame called Shop and open it.

[somber vault]

whats model: Model,

im confuzzled

[coral basin]

how did you learn how to code like where did you start

[craggy adder]

After a lot of realizing how stupid weve been, weve finally uploaded it to the group,,,,,,,,, however its still not working

[atomic palm]

[somber vault]

i need a calm luh coding buddy that we just work on stupid projects together until we randomly pop off ❤️

[atomic palm]

the anims are only client sided even w the animations created and owned by group

[somber vault]

bro what

theyre unrelated twin

the owner doesnt mattter

😭

[lucid pendant]

just needa add anim now

whyd i reply

this fire tho

🔥

[lucid pendant]

bettt

[plush zenith]

model is player.Character

[plush zenith]

hahahha

i wanted to do this in the past

[lucid pendant]

You have an extra end

each if statement and function requires its own end keyword

[atomic palm]

even had this turned on and still doesnt show for others

[lucid pendant]

pluhh

[lucid pendant]

[stuck siren]

Is there an error in the output?

[lucid pendant]

im lowky just trollin idk why ruin it

i thought bro was new

😭

[stuck siren]

What a weird behavior, huh

It should destroy

Is it a LocalScript or Script? And where is it located?

[lucid pendant]

try kill humanoid

oh

[stuck siren]

That's it, then

Touched is not a Model event

It's a BasePart (Part, Mesh, etc) event

Try applying the event on all parts of the model

[shell breach]

Cant u js find the humanoid.health and set it to 0

?

[bright perch]

How would you go about linking a jump animation to jump
Or a run animation to run etc etc

[stuck siren]

Like so:

local function destroyTouchedPart (otherPart: BasePart)
    local character = otherPart.Parent
    if not character then return end

    local humanoid = character:FindFirstChild("Humanoid")
    if not humanoid then return end
    -- If you want to destroy, uncomment the line below
    -- character:Destroy()
    -- If you want to kill it, uncomment the line below
    -- humanoid:TakeDamage(humanoid.MaxHealth)
end

for _, part in edp:GetDescendants() do
    if not part:IsA("BasePart") then continue end
    part.Touched:Connect(destroyTouchedPart)
end

Can I take a look on script's parent?

In the explorer

Did you make something like this

Or this

Where is the script located?

It's like how you did here

Right click on the script tab and then click on "Show in explorer" or something like it

Inside the script

On it's content

[stark crow]

Using touched events in general isn’t a good idea

They‘re terrible

[stuck siren]

Change edp for script.Parent and it should work

[stark crow]

?

Just loop through the players and use the Hit:IsDescendantOf(Player.Charatcer)

You literally have touched events there

Wait

My brain

Are you using these events for NPCs or players

What I‘d do:

Actually this code can also affect players

If your NPCs are in a folder it‘d be much easier

Good idea

You can easily call :IsDescendantOf(workspace.YourFolderName)

I also wouldn’t define a character variable if you don’t know if it was an NPC that touched you. Could be anything

It might be confusing for you in the long run

Someone wrote you this code?

[lucid pendant]

?

whats that for

keylogger?

😭

[stark crow]

Just check the name instead of the instance type

You don’t need to check if hit.parent is. If hit is, then hit.parent is eitherway

[hearty olive]

Use Debris

hit:Debris(condition, number)

hit

the number is basically how much seconds it waiting for it to hit again

oh

when did you start scripting

condition.Touched:Connect(function(condition))

I started 5 days ago as of today

but your gonna have to declare and variable to it and write a local function under it

[lucid pendant]

yessir

[weak radish]

what

you use conditions to only do certain things if it's true or false

[hallow crag]

how is the first arg a condition its a instance 😭

[weak radish]

💔

And apparently when true is hit it returns itself

[lucid pendant]

this the smoothest pathfinding ive ever made it switches bewtween 2 modes when theres obstacles and when theres not

🔥 🙏

[zenith flower]

???

[lucid pendant]

which is better

[hallow crag]

just use node graphs 😭

[lucid pendant]

pluh what

💔

no

[hallow crag]

why not lmao

[lucid pendant]

this way better

[hallow crag]

premaking nodes always more reliable

and moving npcs with cframe

[lucid pendant]

bruh what

im not making the npc move toa specific place

[hallow crag]

thats the point a node graph u can make different set paths

and connections

[lucid pendant]

its following me

not going somewhere

[hallow crag]

ohh aight mb

[lucid pendant]

its good lol

node perfect tho for that

🔥

[hearty olive]

nah from what ik you make a function declare that function then to know if you touch it i put that and it work for me

[weak radish]

???

Why would you touch the function

It's Instance.Touched:Connect(function(hit)

[hearty olive]

i can just show you what im talking about gimma a sec

[lucid pendant]

🔥

[hearty olive]

But if ur right Thank you for explaining

[mellow basin]

Does anyone know how to code 2 payer obby system?

Like with a custom model to connect each one another

[plush zenith]

wat dis? 🥴

[lucid pendant]

idek i removed the blue line lowky

im going overhaul

[proven depot]

                            local rat = workspace:WaitForChild("Rats"):FindFirstChild(plr.Name)
                            if rat then
                                for _, part in ipairs(rat:GetDescendants()) do
                                    if part:IsA("BasePart") then
                                        part.Transparency = 1
                                        print(part.Name, "Transparency: ", part.Transparency)
                                    end
                                end
                            end

guys this prints that it chaneged the transparency of each part but when i check the rats parts there transparency aint chanegdplease help im so confused

[pine torrent]

That's because it's in local script

[proven depot]

no

its server

[pine torrent]

Then why u used wait for child

[burnt pulsar]

hello guys i have a proplem which i cant solve the proplem is

i made a script that assign players to diffrent teams when i server test it the players get random teams and each one sees the other in anther team btw i made the autoassignable false

[proven depot]

oh

ok ill remove that

but doesnt fix the problem

[pine torrent]

Ye it won't

[proven depot]

so?

[true moon]

they usually have a set path

[placid peak]

hey

[placid peak]

send the script please

[burnt pulsar]

for No, player in pairs(Players) do
ChangeTeam(player)
print(No.. "player")
player.PlayerGui.Timer.Enabled = false

    local humanoid = player.Character and player.Character:FindFirstChild("Humanoid")
    local rootPart = player.Character and player.Character:FindFirstChild("HumanoidRootPart")
    local spawnLocation = MapModel:FindFirstChild(tostring(No))


    if humanoid and rootPart and spawnLocation then
        humanoid.JumpPower = 0
        humanoid.WalkSpeed = 0
        rootPart.CFrame = spawnLocation.CFrame
    end
end

this is part 1

and this is part 2

if Noplayers >= MinPlayers then
print("c")
for count = Countdown, 0, -1 do
Timer:FireAllClients(count)
task.wait(1)
print(count)

        if count == 0 then
            print("Starting game...")

            local ChosenMapName = randomMap()
            if ChosenMapName then

                StartGame(ChosenMapName)
                AssignRoles()


                wait(2)
                blackForAll("Murderer")
                wait(2)
                blackForAll("Doctor")
                wait(2)
                blackForAll("Detective")
                KeepRun = false
            end
        end
    end
else
    Timer:FireAllClients(NotEnough)
end

[burnt pulsar]

forgot 1 more

[placid peak]

isnt this a loop? maybe use break

[burnt pulsar]

local function ChangeTeam(Player)
local Team = Teams.Players
Player.Team = Team
end

[burnt pulsar]

but i want all players to get teamed

[placid peak]

yes once hey all get teamewd use break

so it stops teh code from keep giving teams

cause its a loop

[burnt pulsar]

didnt work :/

[placid peak]

use #code-help im just abeginner scripter

@marsh kelp yes i have

[marsh kelp]

I was gonna send it in #code-help

[marsh kelp]

is it harder to setup than unity? programming wise

saw someone on YouTube taking a long time just to setup his scripts

[dense hull]

roblox is way easy atleast to me but then again UE uses blueprints which are petty easy to use

but roblox code is much more easy to learn

oh unity

[marsh kelp]

:D sorry I confused you

[dense hull]

oh mb

[marsh kelp]

I used Unity for a few months before coming to Roblox .. but didn't use UE. that's why I asked

[dense hull]

UE is much easyer for new coders due to blueprints > Unity uses C# which is harder but lil bit more logical to me

[marsh kelp]

but isn't blueprints a bit limited*** for more complex projects?

or visual scripting in general

[fiery heron]

Anybody wants to try out my game with me?

[dense hull]

#tester-hiring

[dense hull]

kinda you can do a ton with them, but also unity dose visual scripting but its not the best

in UE you can use c++ to code too but it requires alot more setup

wrong gif lol

[marsh kelp]

Yeb that's what I was making sure of, if it was true or not

I guess I'll have to try UE blueprints in the future ( only heard good things about it compared to unity visual scripting )

[dense hull]

ye just try it and if you need help you can ask in the unreal engine discord server

there petty nice at least in vc

[marsh kelp]

Oh

[somber vault]

what is it

[marsh kelp]

I don't know why, but I have a bad impression about asking for help in discord servers

some are good

but most don't help or your msg go away with the chat in few seconds

[dense hull]

the voice chats are full of helpers etc and i think they have helper text chats etc

what you made

[marsh kelp]

do you have any use cases in mind?
the only thing I can think about is to stop using parts as Position holder

sounds based location without using parts or easyier ropes etc

[somber vault]

should deepwoken have used ecs if not why

what

ima go update my rbx studio which i have not done in over week and a half

[somber vault]

entity component system

[zenith cloak]

does this look fun?

[hallow crag]

just put ur entire game under a actor most exploiters are skids so they wont understand whats going on

when they see no remotes in their remote spy

what like namecall hooks?

[ember quartz]

https://tenor.com/view/gigachad-gif-5430850758035663288

[hallow crag]

elaborate on remote tampering, do u mean like arg modification and remote interception?

yeah so all u need to do is add namecall hooking detection

just make a "Trap" table with a custom __tostring metamethod with basic env checks and then do something to trigger the tostring metamethod

like game:FindFirstChild(Trap)

or sum

aight

[proper quest]

read the docs bro

[hallow crag]

theres legit a example usage of profilestore

in the devforum post

[proper quest]

no 😭

[hallow crag]

💀

[lime hemlock]

The wall run game mechanic functions well.
I appreciate how the script detects when the user is near a wall, and when to begin the animation cycle. 👍

With more attention to detail & perseverance, you could make a fully-fledged parkour game out of this.

how to fix this issue related to mesh parts while using the marching cubes algorithm in roblox with editbale meshes

[idle wind]

guys i think i made a rarity system, but i looked up and each of these colors have 33,3% chance of showing, how can i make it so common shows like 50% of the time, rare shows 35% of time and legendary shows 15% of time (just started learning scripting via brawldev vids)

[sand flower]

make it math.random from 1 to 100, if 1 to 15 its legendary, if from 16 to 50 its rare and common is 51 to 100

[sand flower]

also whats the point of having num1 as input if you're not using it

[ornate needle]

how can i fix the image going up like this when i make the image label rotate

[ebon frost]

wait with editable meshes, can i uses meshes for procedural terrain generation?

   end,
}

[storm wing]

[vital parrot]

what?

why are you returning that table?

[little crest]

yall are fake devs if you don't make your next Roblox game using C 👉 https://github.com/roblox-compilers/roblox-c

well it doesn't even have access to game Datamodel but that's fine

[quaint furnace]

guys i want to make a model (Npc) that chases the player but it flies like bees or anything that flies, do i use MoveTo() or AlignPosition?

[hard cedar]

anyone know?

[quaint furnace]

i haven't found any tutorials/series on creating the entire system (block + dashes + other things), but if you look for each of them like blocking system, dash system, you should find it easy

[hard cedar]

Yeah but I cant find ways to add the stuff in anothers script

[quaint furnace]

what do you mean by that?

[hard cedar]

like someone creates an m1 system which is missing some stuff like m1 reset time, stun and smth else. If I watch another person telling how to add these things.. I dont know where to add the line of code to in the other persons script

idk if u understand

im just like 2 months into scripting

[quaint furnace]

oh, i think as long as you know what does the script in the tutorial do you'd know what to add

[hard cedar]

makes my brain go boom

[quaint furnace]

well i shouldn't give you an advice though since i still mostly code with gpt lol, but even with gpt you'll still need to know the code since 99% of the time you'll still need to modify it

well i suggest you look on how do people add stun effect to their combat system, you might as well learn from it

[urban coyote]

Just use wasynth little bro 😭 🙏 that project doesn't seem even a 10% complete

[cloud atlas]

roblox studio plz work 🙏

[quaint furnace]

and one more @hard cedar , you should look into the devforum

[hard cedar]

ok

just looked into it and some dude literally open sourced his game with combat system lol

Also, recently I've heard that ProfileService Module is better then Roblox's DataStoreService. Why is that?

[warm drum]

what's the best way to learn advanced Lua lika. oop frameworks metatables and stuff . I only know the basic

[tame compass]

Watch the videos that specify on this themes

Read DevForum posts

Read Documentation

OOP isn't as hard as you think it is

[warm drum]

really

[tame compass]

Yes

[copper apex]

No matter how small the task is, as long youre consistent and practice you will get better

OOP is a very basic concept

[tame compass]

When I started scripting, for i,v in pairs loops were very hard to me

Until I just understood them

[warm drum]

cool I just finished exams. I'll learn all this during this holiday thx again

[copper apex]

There are other concepts surrounding it aswell such as encapsulation

[warm drum]

ooh

[tame compass]

I am kind of sad about that I do things in roblox studio for like 4 years now

[copper apex]

If you find a good beginner java book you can learn it, atleast thats how I learneed OOP

[tame compass]

And I still don't have any finished games

[vital parrot]

If someone teaches you in person or a vc it'll be easier so you can ask questions

[warm drum]

relatable. I abandon projects all the time

[tame compass]

I just have a lack of motivation and patience

[warm drum]

oh I see

[tame compass]

I could do that

But I am not a native english speaker

I can write but it's hard for me to talk

[warm drum]

yeah I got that ultimate guide to scripting book

[warm drum]

I'll see

[tame compass]

Recently, I've made an Obby game and I started being very motivated about it... but the whole motivation went away like a day after

I want an Idea for game that will be interesting for me and will stick to me, until I finish it

[warm drum]

I'm making an interactive emotional narrative RPG with physics related to aerospace

[tame compass]

That's... sort of complicated, isn't it?

[warm drum]

I know but I'm doing it haha

[somber vault]

Is there any good professional, english speaking Scripter in here that can call in vc and talk? DM ME TO BE APART OF OUR TEAM

[vital parrot]

RPGs are definitely not for people that dont know oop

[warm drum]

That's why we learn

[tame compass]

Damn, even after all these years I've worked in Studio - I still don't understand the CFrames and Graphic Functions (bezier curves, for example)

[vital parrot]

I know how to do opp and I dont even want to work on a rpg way too much coding

[vital parrot]

Better curves are easy tbh it makes sense after you know it

Bezier*

Im on phone

[tame compass]

The formulas, I just can't understand them

And I can't understand the whole thing because I can't understand the formula

[vital parrot]

You can write them by yourself though right?

[warm drum]

I have the time. 2 years is enough to make this project right

[tame compass]

No, actually

I don't understand them

I made a test place, but I just copied script to research it

[vital parrot]

2 year project yeah if you're that type of person to keep going

[vital parrot]

What script?

It's a formula

It should only be one line

[tame compass]

Oh

[warm drum]

I've been thinking about making this game since 2020. the drive is a lot to just wear off. but yeah I hope to inspire

[tame compass]

I have this one

[vital parrot]

What project?

[vital parrot]

Yeah that's the one for 3 points

[warm drum]

some idea I have. but I don't really wanna share it, I prefer gatekeeping this

[tame compass]

Here is it on the Wikipedia
It's more understable when it's written more clearly

I'll try to understand it

guys will this pass me the application?

[mint cloud]

As long as it works it should, though u may wanna add some stuff to make it seem more complex

The app readers are suckers for complexity

[cerulean perch]

bro i got rejected NINE TIMES

[mint cloud]

💀

[vital parrot]

Using a module that ain't yours dont look good on you

[dark juniper]

make it work on strict mode

[cerulean perch]

and the common comment is "please add comments to explain your code

[mint cloud]

A green username is not worth allat bro 😭

[dark juniper]

yea i just gave up atp

its not worth lmao

[cerulean perch]

its to post in #scripter-hirable

[wind portal]

Guys, how he made this?

[mint cloud]

Probably tweens

[cerulean perch]

IK bones

[next hull]

man i was calling the wrong variable

[tame compass]

oh

happens

[next hull]

no wonder why i couldnt spot the error

sigh

[tame compass]

When I didn't know anything about vectors, instead of finding a vector between player and mouse position to launch a projectile - I just used the mouse position for the projectile direction

I couldn't understand why wasn't it working properly

[shrewd pier]

if i want to get into scripting, is knowledge of advanced maths needed?

like for physics and shit

[tame compass]

Yes, it's needed, but for advanced stuff

[restive hill]

im confused i wrote a code and it only works 1 time. i have a part that i want to go transparent on contact and come back after like 4 second. but if i touch it again after it came back it wont go transparent again
can someone eplain me why that is i cant find a solution

local GoneContact = workspace:WaitForChild("DisappearOnContact")

local isTouched = false

local function dissapearOnContact()
if not isTouched then
isTouched = true
for count = 1, 10 do
GoneContact.Transparency = count/10
task.wait(0.1)
GoneContact.Transparency = 1
end
GoneContact.CanCollide = false
task.wait(1)
GoneContact.CanCollide = true
GoneContact.Transparency = 0
end
end

GoneContact.Touched:Connect(dissapearOnContact)

did i do something wrong

[tame compass]

you didnt change isTouched back to false

``local GoneContact = workspace:WaitForChild("DisappearOnContact")

local isTouched = false

local function dissapearOnContact()
if not isTouched then
isTouched = true
for count = 1, 10 do
GoneContact.Transparency = count/10
task.wait(0.1)
GoneContact.Transparency = 1
end
GoneContact.CanCollide = false
task.wait(1)
GoneContact.CanCollide = true
GoneContact.Transparency = 0
isTouched = false
end
end``

try this

Did it work?

[restive hill]

sry was gone for a second

[tame compass]

Also, if this is a server script, you don't have to use WaitForChild for workspace objects

[restive hill]

someone said wait for child is safer so i know that the part loaded

[tame compass]

It is used in client scripts more often

I mean, you can use it if you want

[restive hill]

ah yes now it works

[tame compass]

Nothing bad

[tame compass]

That's good to hear

[restive hill]

thanks

so always i gotta ser isTouched at the end to false in situations like that

[tame compass]

Yes

[restive hill]

oka

[tame compass]

If you don't do it, it aborts on this line

Also, you could use TweenService to change transparency

[restive hill]

oh right bc the 1. thing local isTOuched = false is behind the function

[tame compass]

yes

[restive hill]

ah alr

didnt see that

thanks*

[tame compass]

If you want, I can help you with implementing TweenService into your script

It's not hard at all

[next hull]

mannn why is my dot product not working

i dont think i understand vectors enough to find the issue

hmmmmmmm

[tame compass]

Can you send the script? I'll try to help you

But I don't promise I'll solve it

I understand vectors but not fully

[next hull]

hold on gimme a sec

[tame compass]

Ok

[next hull]

        local facingUVect = currentCameraCFrame.LookVector
        local actualFacing = Vector3.new(facingUVect.X, 0, facingUVect.Z)
        local objVector = (workspace.Target.Position - Character.HumanoidRootPart.Position).unit
        local actualVector = Vector3.new(objVector.X, 0, objVector.Z)
        local angle = math.acos(actualFacing:Dot(actualVector))
``` ta da

[next hull]

facing u vect is the red line, obj vect is the green line

the "actual" variables resolve both vectors into the same horizontal plane

[tame compass]

Maybe, it is because you didn't unit the first Vector?

[next hull]

as u can see the angle (degrees) becomes 120 when it should be 180

but still shows 90 for 90

[tame compass]

Hm...

[next hull]

the lookvector should alr be in a unit vector i think

[tame compass]

Oh, ye

[next hull]

im assuming it is to do with my equation

[tame compass]

Don't you have to do, like

Print both vectors magnitude and show me the output, please

[next hull]

wait what

one of them is nil

... i mistyped the variable

bruh

[tame compass]

happens

[edgy basin]

Any scripters willing to fix some bugs and create a few things for % dm me

[keen juniper]

currentCameraCFrame? is that what u mistyped?

[tame compass]

I think it's the part cframe

Oh, you didn't mean that

Okay

[next hull]

ta da

[tame compass]

Their magnitude now, please

[keen juniper]

What are you trying to do with this code

[next hull]

nah i mistyped the variable in the print statement :((((

[next hull]

get the angle between red and green line (facing vector and object vector)

[tame compass]

What is the vectors magnitude?

[tame compass]

Oh

That's the issue

[next hull]

the whole thing is to make a fortnite/pubg like damage system

where players can have a pointer on their screen showing where the damage came from
