You're welcome to take a look

[sacred ore]

is this a client or a server script

[crude quarry]

Client

only thing I can guess is the whole touch function is inside the module scripts function

[sacred ore]

why are you using GetPlayerFromCharacter

[crude quarry]

I need the players playerGUI

[sacred ore]

i mean you can do Players.LocalPLayer

you on client side

[tulip merlin]

That script will only run for the Current player interacting with that object

[crude quarry]

oh weird I did do that at the bottom

[sacred ore]

and instead of getting the humanoid like this you can do Player.Character or Player.CharacterAdded:Wait()

[tulip merlin]

If player A and player B touched that part both player A and player B would have that script run separately

[sacred ore]

and then Character.Humanoid

[tulip merlin]

Now you can always do a check to make sure what's touching it IS a player

[sacred ore]

but i think touched should be handle on the client

and you should fire an event

to the client that touched the part

[rough vine]

brother, why'd you block me for no reason

💀

[severe quarry]

Guys I need a script, when someone is buying SlapHand gamepass, it gives him the object

Mine is working but you need to rejoin multiple times to have it in your inventory

[crude quarry]

I think I gotta do more troubleshooting cuz all sorts of issues are popping up but the script it working through the lines like nothing is wrong

[crude quarry]

are you cloning the object to the player and putting it in their backpack

[severe quarry]

No

I wish I had my pc with me so I could show u

[tulip merlin]

How I would personally handle it (anyone can let me know if this is also bad practice)

local part = game.Workspace:WaitForChild("Part");
local Players = game:GetService("Players")
local Player = Players.LocalPlayer;
local Character = Player.Character or Player.CharacterAdded:Wait()


part.Touched:Connect(function(hit)
    if not hit.Parent:IsDescendantOf(Character) then
        print("Part touched is not the local player")
        return
    end
    
    -- Do whatever you need now knowing it is the local player touching the part
end)

[severe quarry]

When someone is buying the gamepass, it doesnt give the slapHand instantly, he needs to rejoin multiple times even change server for it to work

[tulip merlin]

This is only important mind you if you have other things that could possibly touch it. Especially other objects in the gamespace as the Touched event will even be triggered by say the baseplate touching the part

[crude quarry]

so weird Players.LocalPlayer prints nothing

guess I found my issue

[tulip merlin]

What do you mean it prints nothing? It should be the entire player object

UNLESS its not a LocalScript

[crude quarry]

attempt to index nil with 'LocalPlayer'

[tulip merlin]

Then it indeed will be nil or nothing

You aren't in a LocalScript

[crude quarry]

I most certinatly am

[sacred ore]

do it at the top of the script

[tulip merlin]

Should that even matter?

[sacred ore]

js to test if it is working

[tulip merlin]

Would LocalPlayer be nil in this context? Is it because the event could fire before LocalPlayer is indexed?

I mean I always recommend making a local Player = Players.LocalPlayer variable at the top anyway with all the other variables since its bad practice to keep doing Players.LocalPlayer.whatever

[crude quarry]

It's just weird cuz it runs through everything just fine you can see all the print statements in the output

but no actions are actually done

[tulip merlin]

What exactly is happening that you aren't expecting.

Is the gui being enabled?

[crude quarry]

player's not being teleported the GUI is not enablwd

[tulip merlin]

Any new errors?

[crude quarry]

No errors but I just realized it's still not printing players.localplayer under the GUI

[thorny parcel]

ts looks weird

[tulip merlin]

As me and blocklotuz has said, try putting Players.LocalPlayer into a variable right after local Players = game:GetService("Players") and use that variable in place of where you normally do Players.LocalPlayer

[dense aurora]

Question

If i was to make a UI to select saved characters (they can only be loaded by the server) and i wanted to store them in viewports. How should i do so?

My idea is to put the characters inside a folder in RepStorage under a folder with the user's id and use .ChildAdded connection but im wondering if this is the best or not

I suppose like Catalog Avatar Creator

[tulip merlin]

No promises it will fix it, but I suspect Players.LocalPlayer just isn't available yet?

[crude quarry]

I found the issue

it's the humanoidrootpart not being found

[dense aurora]

did you use
local character = client.Character or client.CharacterAdded:Wait()

[tulip merlin]

Quite frankly they are doing it in a weird way for being in a LocalScript context

[azure granite]

dont u have to seralize the character store it in data store then when the game loads player's datastore it makes the charactesr again then does the viewport thing

[crude quarry]

nope I finally got it, it was my own stupidity

[dense aurora]

well ive got the data store working fine. but im more so wondering how to get the character from the server onto the client

[crude quarry]

The module script was looking to see if a function was true about a players team, I was not on that tean hence the function never returned true

[tulip merlin]

I highly recommend following what me and blacklotuz has said though. You have a lot of redundancy and areas to clean up

Either way glad you found the issue

[dense aurora]

i hate the obvious bugs hey

[crude quarry]

im not worried about cleanup, my goal about learning is getting it to function

[tulip merlin]

Fair enough, but you are only learning bad habits

So long as you understand its a bad habit and know to fix it later then whatever ig

[crude quarry]

im sure i'll learn more as I progress

[sacred ore]

why not learn on this script then?

[crude quarry]

cuz im already trying to mix module scripts and local scripts and this is clearly being a bigger pain than I thought

Never used modules before im just learning from someone elses reference

[tulip merlin]

Seems like you are just adopting the "I will fix it later and never end up fixing it" attitude

It appalls me people will implement something one way knowing they'd be better off doing it another just to say "Ah I will do it later"

[crude quarry]

nah I just dont like learning 15 different things cuz I'll end up forgetting most of it

[tulip merlin]

The issue is, you are neglecting basics

[sacred ore]

but thats just basic organization

[tulip merlin]

Which is what you want to learn

Not even basic organization

It shows a lack of understanding in basic programming

Using variables being one of em

He named 2 variables the same thing making use of the fact they are case sensitive to differentiate them, but also there's places he could use variables to get rid of repetition

[sacred ore]

he will understand later

[azure granite]

guys if i wanna save stuff in a player inventory like the fruits in grow a garden, do i need to serialize the parts so the player can hold it

[tulip merlin]

Whatever then, I think its bad idea to reinforce bad habits and shit early on but do you ig

[hardy yew]

how to make a function that declares all variables I need and then I can use them for other functions, guys?

[tulip merlin]

What?

[sacred ore]

wdym

[hardy yew]

like get all IntValue from a player

[sacred ore]

depend if you are in client or serverside

[hardy yew]

I wanna make my code cleaner

[crude quarry]

I agree the names wasn't the smartest but they weren't the issue. that time I was just too lazy to come up with anything else

[tulip merlin]

Wasn't saying it was the issue, but it did cause an issue

[sacred ore]

bro is not ready for lua heap

[hardy yew]

should I use table like
playerData[player.UserId]?

[crude quarry]

Nope im still in the basics

[sacred ore]

I would make a SetStatus script, you get the data and add them as value under a player, then you save the value as new data when the player leave

[sacred ore]

to reduce data store requests

[hardy yew]

ah alr ty

[crude quarry]

local trigger = workspace:WaitForChild("barrier")
local Players = game:GetService("Players")
local Teams = game:GetService("Teams")
local Player = Players.LocalPlayer
local Permissions = require(game.ReplicatedStorage:WaitForChild('Modules'):WaitForChild('Permissions'))
local debounce = false

trigger.Touched:Connect(function(plr)    
    local TPLayer = plr.Parent
    if debounce == true then return end
    debounce = true
    local Humanoid = TPLayer:FindFirstChildOfClass("Humanoid")
    if not Humanoid then return end
    if not Permissions.Headquarters(Player)  then return end
    local root = TPLayer:FindFirstChild("HumanoidRootPart")
    if not root then return end
    TPLayer:PivotTo(root.CFrame * CFrame.new(0, 0, 15))
    Humanoid.WalkSpeed = 0
    Player.PlayerGui.WarningGUI.Enabled = true
    for i = 5, 0, -1 do
        Player.PlayerGui.WarningGUI.TextLabel.Text = "You passed the barrier and are on cooldown for "..i.." sec"
        task.wait(1)
        Humanoid.WalkSpeed = 16
    end
    Player.PlayerGui.WarningGUI.Enabled = false
    debounce = false
end)``` Happy?

[azure granite]

what are some common bad habits

[sacred ore]

not deffining variables, forget to disconect connections, too much data requests, repeating scripts instead of for _, loop

[azure granite]

wait why are u setting debounce to true before it even checks if plr has humanoidrootpart

[tulip merlin]

Nesting if statements, bad variable names or lack of variables all together. Redundant code, honestly there's a lot

[sacred ore]

it is the right way to do it

[tulip merlin]

I also see people use a lot of magic numbers in code

[azure granite]

oh i might strugle with the 2nd one but if i have connections inside player local script i dont havet o care right

[tulip merlin]

I've seen my fair share of

data[0] = 0
data[1] = 0
data[2] = 0
data[3] = 0

[azure granite]

but wont debounce be locked if something other than player or player with no hrp touiches it

[tulip merlin]

[sacred ore]

you want to lock the action before running the function so the player cannot actvaite it while the function is running

[azure granite]

is that just wrong because its confusing

[crude quarry]

If the Humanoid isn't found the first time sending 50 other requests ain't gonna find it

[azure granite]

but if its locked in this case and it return ends before it gets to debounce = false then its never gonna set debounce to false

[tulip merlin]

It's not that it's wrong, its still valid code, its just bad practice cause a for loop is better

[azure granite]

oh

[tulip merlin]

Anytime you find yourself needing to repeat something, for loop is the goto

[sacred ore]

you do function is activated > debounce is set to true > run the functions > wait cooldown > debounce = false

[tulip merlin]

I mean personally I think either or would be fine no?

[azure granite]

if anyone of these gets ran then debounce is forever stuck to true no?

unless u set debounce false somewhere else

[tulip merlin]

Does it really matter if you do it immediately after a function call or after checking if its a person touching it?

[tulip merlin]

Correct

It would be stuck true

[azure granite]

ur supposed to put debounce after all the rreturn ends

[sacred ore]

well normally, you would add every condition at the top, before even doing the variables, and i would set debounce as the last condition yes

[lost minnow]

anyone know if it would be possible to have players sing along to music playing in game via voice chat while correcting for delays or is that impossible

[tulip merlin]

Typically its a

local part = game.Workspace:WaitForChild("Part");
local Players = game:GetService("Players")
local Player = Players.LocalPlayer;
local Character = Player.Character or Player.CharacterAdded:Wait()

local debounce = true
part.Touched:Connect(function(hit)
    if debounce then
        debounce = false
        if not hit.Parent:IsDescendantOf(Character) then
            print("Part touched is not the local player")
            return
        end
        print("part touched")
        wait(5)
        debounce = true
    end
end)

It's how i do my debounces

[marsh sail]

who can debug a game

[sacred ore]

what are the struggles?

[jaunty path]

is it possible to scale a model using a script

[marsh sail]

everything just breaks at a certain extreme and some stuff now working dm and ill send u a copy and the problems\

[sacred ore]

model:ScaleTo()

[jaunty path]

thanks

[tulip merlin]

You guys have a good night

I dip now

[sacred ore]

cya

[azure granite]

ok but what if part touched isnt local player, then debounce is stuck to false. then every time it gets touched again it will never trigger the if

[tulip merlin]

Sorry I was making use of old code but typically you'd set it to true inside that if statement as well

Anything that relies on that code being ran must be reset back to its default

local part = game.Workspace:WaitForChild("Part");
local Players = game:GetService("Players")
local Player = Players.LocalPlayer;
local Character = Player.Character or Player.CharacterAdded:Wait()

local debounce = true
part.Touched:Connect(function(hit)
    if debounce then
        debounce = false
        if not hit.Parent:IsDescendantOf(Character) then
            print("Part touched is not the local player")
            debounce = true
            return
        end
        print("part touched")
        wait(5)
        debounce = true
    end
end)

[azure granite]

yeah, or i guess u can set debounce to false after the if statement

[tulip merlin]

Could even add a wait() if you want to keep the "prolonged" aspect

indeed you could

You could do

local part = game.Workspace:WaitForChild("Part");
local Players = game:GetService("Players")
local Player = Players.LocalPlayer;
local Character = Player.Character or Player.CharacterAdded:Wait()

local debounce = true
part.Touched:Connect(function(hit)
    if debounce then
        debounce = false
        if not hit.Parent:IsDescendantOf(Character) then
            print("Part touched is not the local player")
            return
        end
        print("part touched")
        wait(5)
        debounce = true
    else
      debounce = true
    end
end)
``` If you wanted since *going based off this basic example* the `else` will only ever run if debounce is stuck on false

Which I assume is what you meant

[azure granite]

local debounce = true
part.Touched:Connect(function(hit)
    if debounce then
        if not hit.Parent:IsDescendantOf(Character) then
            print("Part touched is not the local player")
            return
        end

        debounce = false        

        print("part touched")
        wait(5)
        debounce = true
    end
end)

i meant this

[tulip merlin]

Ah yeah that could work as well!

Sorry I’m tired ahaha

guys in my game, the npc is spawning in a random place in the map, the first npc spawns in the designated area, but the second npc after wait(3) spawns in a random place. Why?

[winter glade]

no code?

[wintry ore]

what did i do wrong here (scripting for about 2days)

local Teams = game:GetService("Teams")

local Republic12 = script.Parent

if Teams.Republic then Republic12.CanCollide = false
    if Teams.Jailed then Republic12.CanCollide = true
        if Teams.Civilians then Republic12.CanCollide = true
            if Teams.Hostiles then Republic12.CanCollide = true
                if Teams.Choosing then Republic12.CanCollide = true
                end
            end
        end
    end
end ```

[crude quarry]

Just made a new police car

[pseudo hatch]

just made my first leaderstat script by myself

game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(player)
local stats = Instance.new("Folder")
stats.Name = "leaderstats"
stats.Parent = player

local coins = Instance.new("IntValue")
coins.Name = "Coins"
coins.Value = 0
coins.Parent = stats

end)

[inner tundra]

i believe you are trying something more like

local Teams = game:GetService("Teams")

local Republic12 = script.Parent

if Teams.Jailed or Teams.Civilians or Teams.Hostiles or Teams.Choosing then
 Republic12.CanCollide = true
elseif Teams.Republic then
Republic12.CanCollide = false
end

[winter glade]

simplify your code
if Teams.X or Teams.Y or Teams.Z then Republic12.CanCollide = true

[inner tundra]

you didnt exactly mention what part wasnt working 😭

[inner tundra]

peak

[pseudo hatch]

made it different

day 2 of coding btw 😄

[winter glade]

you mightve come across the word "deprecated" by this point

wait() is deprecated and task.wait() is what gets used now

[pseudo hatch]

ohh okay

also made this

this i needed help with lol

[inner tundra]

whats not working-

[wintry ore]

thank you

[wintry ore]

thank you

[pseudo hatch]

it works

i just said that i needed help when i was actually making the script

[agile fulcrum]

can someone help me

[pseudo hatch]

with what

[agile fulcrum]

can you please dm me
i mean accept my dm please

[agile fulcrum]

can i dm u

[pseudo hatch]

yea

[civic garnet]

you should wrap that while true do loop in a task.spawn thread

[loud swallow]

help me this doesnt even output

[inner tundra]

you could try smthing like local Character = part:FindFirstAncestorWhichIsA("Model") because character can sometimes have accessories

[loud swallow]

i fixed already, it was after a while do loop 💀

[exotic spindle]

yo guys

[scenic lotus]

hi

[patent gorge]

hey guys if i want to make all players in a server dance do i have to fire a remote event and send them to all players or can i just do it on server side

[pseudo hatch]

remote event

[patent gorge]

theres like a bit of a problem ive done that but my players arent dancing ive used print statements to see if they work or not and the print does go through but the porblem is they dont dance

[pseudo hatch]

did u set a correct animation?

[quaint furnace]

hello, what do i do to mitigate failed datastore save on the roblox end? should i make a loop for it to repeatedly request to setAsync?

[storm wing]

can i get some advice on a game i made or a honest review, its incomplete

[pseudo hatch]

yes

[storm wing]

dms!

[pseudo hatch]

Okay

[white dock]

my memory increases alot after 10 hr
where can i check what is causing it

[patent gorge]

yes i did

i wanted the default dance

[pseudo hatch]

what does your script look like

[patent gorge]

its a dev product and once the dev product is bought the server will fire a remote event then the remote connects to another where it will make the player dance what script do u want to see

[pseudo hatch]

can u send it to me in dms

[radiant island]

what should i do with these doors

[patent gorge]

open them

[radiant island]

i mean in the sense like

how should the be able to be opened

[patent gorge]

but I don't have any ideas

[sacred mauve]

We need a slime racher game guys

Would hit hard

[small palm]

break them

[solemn knot]

i really wouldnt recommend using Touched for hitboxes

[solemn knot]

we could make a slime rancher

why wait for someone to make it when we can 💯

[tame compass]

Do you think that the workspace:GetPartsInBounds() is better?

[solemn knot]

yeah

but not great for moving hitboxes imo

[tame compass]

Okay.

[solemn knot]

for moving hitboxes id just use a raycast

[tame compass]

Same, I guess

[solemn knot]

or shapecast

[tame compass]

I have lack of ideas

[loud swallow]

ik they arent as trust worthy but in my scenario its really fine

[tame compass]

I can't think of something I want to do in Roblox Studio

[loud swallow]

and i fixed my issues already thanks tho

[tame compass]

But I do want to do something

[solemn knot]

ight

[tame compass]

I need ideas, damn

what if 🤷🏻‍♀️

[digital flint]

are there any long term scripters here?

payment and percentage is better

no ones gonna do it for just percentage

[rapid eagle]

🤦🏻‍♂️

[static wedge]

✌️

Then you suddenly have people you promised 30% of revenue

And your left with like 3%

[rapid eagle]

yk this game called ninja did give 2% and 1% to there devs

i mean they make a lot of money but still the devs is the ones who made the game :epn

😔

imagine paying 10k$ for 1%

i never said my game wasn't good

[dusky kestrel]

Your wallet?

[static wedge]

what was u thinking

[digital flint]

who are you to assume my game isn't good???

[rapid eagle]

so is a stone

[digital flint]

execute bitfracture NOW

[static wedge]

someone that's rich

[digital flint]

check dms

[static wedge]

A stone is a rock

[digital flint]

i need that robux!

[rapid eagle]

a stone is big a rock is little stone

[dusky kestrel]

I wasn’t saying it was

I never played it

[static wedge]

Ik but same material ✌️

[digital flint]

"if ur game isn't good it won't get any players anyways" thats basically assuming it isn't

banned for harrassment

[dusky kestrel]

Rip

[rapid eagle]

🤷🏻‍♀️ whatever

[static wedge]

rip rest in peace juice world fr

Woah

Rude

[rapid eagle]

you could stop being aggressive and instead say there game is bad and tell them what to improve

[static wedge]

Cr

[dusky kestrel]

Yeah, it was rude

Though I can’t lie, if your game is made mostly by either Ai or YouTube videos and didn’t bother to even learn it

Then ima just be rude

Since people actually put effort into their work

[somber thunder]

any scripter wanna work on a game whit me?

all profit will be split

and il pay for advertisment

[dusky kestrel]

Hire me fr

[static wedge]

Dm

[dusky kestrel]

I’m serious

[hushed basin]

20k what robux per day?

[static wedge]

per week

[hushed basin]

too good to be true

[tame compass]

There's a lot of bad games which has a decent amount of players

[somber vault]

real

[slate thicket]

Hello, why my getChildren() doesnt give me the Gate1? i dont know why

[lone marsh]

that 5k-20k range is a bit too huge mate

[somber vault]

lua child support?

https://tenor.com/view/sum-sumdeathjr-goon-goon-fraud-gif-10516847757940998926

[slate thicket]

what is 5k-20k range mean?

[lofty plinth]

Is it per chance falling into the void and in turn getting destroyed?

[slate thicket]

its anchored on my baseplate

[uneven turtle]

It returns a table.

You can use a for loop to have access to each item

[weak radish]

you didn't look at all the pictures

[weak radish]

Use wait for child

[slate thicket]

already use it, still {}

[weak radish]

Checking if there's any other folders called the same

[slate thicket]

i thought it because the folder doesnt exist when the getchildren

[slate thicket]

theres no..

[weak radish]

do print workspace:Get descendants()

[uneven turtle]

Oh it returns an empty table. Are you sure that Gate1 exists when calling GetChildren()?

[weak radish]

yes they used waitforchild

[slate thicket]

okay, lemme use that

[slate thicket]

i already check it when the game runs, there i

[spiral jungle]

Does the gate part fall into the void and die

[weak radish]

that's a good point

[slate thicket]

its still appear {}

[weak radish]

most likely reason

[slate thicket]

the gate part its anchored

i dont think its fall into void

[spiral jungle]

Then it’s probably just not loaded yet

[weak radish]

you should have two outputs, say both of them

[weak radish]

they used waitforchild

[slate thicket]

i think so

[spiral jungle]

Where

[slate thicket]

okay wait

[weak radish]

after the image

[weak radish]

^

[spiral jungle]

How’s he doing a wait for child

[uneven turtle]

Look in the explorer if the part is in the folder while in-game

[weak radish]

oh no don't tell me it's because they don't know how to use it

[slate thicket]

its appear {}

[uneven turtle]

Then try to use GetChildren again

In the command bar

[weak radish]

Send the current code

[fathom atlas]

Yes, red flag tho

[spiral jungle]

Amazing

[slate thicket]

i donno how to sending without image

[weak radish]

What? 😭

[spiral jungle]

Wait for child on the folder doesn’t mean the children of the folder are loaded

[uneven turtle]

Try to add a wait of a few secs to check

[slate thicket]

owww, my bad... dont know too

[fathom atlas]

How much experience do you have

[slate thicket]

aightt

[weak radish]

1 year+ but no way you said asking if there's pay is a red flag

[uneven turtle]

Parts shouldn’t need waitForChild tho… Especially on the server…

[weak radish]

it's client

[uneven turtle]

Oh then yes ofc

[slate thicket]

iam on client script

[weak radish]

what?

[weak radish]

Who said it was server??

[uneven turtle]

I didn’t know mb

[slate thicket]

i added it before waitforchild, and still appear {}

[uneven turtle]

On what did you use waitForChild?

[slate thicket]

on the folder

[uneven turtle]

As someone previously said, wait for the folder is not a guarantee

Add a task.wait of a few seconds

At the top of the script

[slate thicket]

okay

still appear {}

[uneven turtle]

How much time did you put in?

That’s why a loading system is goated

[gusty solar]

im tired of people crashing out because i do game.ServiceName on server

[slate thicket]

should i try while #gatesFolder:getchildren == 0?

[gusty solar]

it's literally the fucking same

[uneven turtle]

Sure but for example game.Teams doesn’t always work

[slate thicket]

0.2

[uneven turtle]

Add 2 seconds

[slate thicket]

okay

[uneven turtle]

It takes time to load stuff

Especially if your game has loads of parts

[slate thicket]

yea, the problem solved

its appear the gate

[uneven turtle]

Perfect. Will you add a loading system in your game?

That would be the best

Waiting for everything to load.

[slate thicket]

wow

i dont think so..

[slate thicket]

i tried this, work, should i?

[uneven turtle]

Doesn’t it work now?

[slate thicket]

but task.wait(2)....

[uneven turtle]

Yeah but that’s the only option. Things on the server replicate to the client so it takes time. The best thing would be to add a loading system using ContentProvider. If you don’t want a loading system rn due to loading times, you need to stick to waits in your LocalScripts…

[minor cloak]

yo guys

do yall need somebody to make you something for free

i wanna work on some games for practice

[uneven turtle]

OR you could use RemoteEvents from the server to the client but that depends heavily on the use case

[slate thicket]

owwww, i just found out that server need times to replicate to the client, thank youu

[uneven turtle]

Make one for yourself.

[slate thicket]

okaaayyy, thanksss

[uneven turtle]

yup

[uneven turtle]

np 😉

[minor cloak]

sick idea but i wanna hear other people's thoughts

and how to improve and such

so nah id decline

[slate thicket]

😀 o

[uneven turtle]

Just make systems and then get feedback. Or create a game and ask feedback. It can also be simple yk

[minor cloak]

been doin that

[steel silo]

i need sm1 to make a game wit fr Tower defense game or suggestions dm me

[spiral jungle]

No

do i know you ? wdym am horrible

[minor cloak]

add me to the game 🙂

i learnt about it yesterday haha

[visual vector]

i can put you in a basplate cause people like destroyin mmy stufff

[minor cloak]

yeah

you can just copy the script

ig

wait actually

make a copy of your game

and send it to me

ill send it back with the shop added

[visual vector]

wdym

[minor cloak]

send a duplicate file of the game

[visual vector]

idk how i feel about that

[minor cloak]

okay so how do you want me to do it

i wont ruin anythin dw

i can code it to you

and tell you where to put the scripts

but itll take more time yk

[visual vector]

ill put you into a basplate dm

[minor cloak]

if you want we can even make games together

im looking for a teamate haha

[drowsy totem]

I need scripters you will get 30% revenue and robux or PayPal payment depending on contribution please dm

[umbral carbon]

Post in #scripter-hiring

You can pay for percentage

[molten creek]

30 WHOLE PERCENT LET'S GO

[tired fulcrum]

anyone wanna workl on a game toegther i got an fir idea

[arctic void]

What type of weld or thing would I use to follow the player but without copying the orientation

[rapid eagle]

i am so bored

[arctic void]

Im making a hitbox and I want a constant orientation

[rapid eagle]

welding in hitbox

[arctic void]

do you mean welding to hrp?

[normal pumice]

I just got the scripting role

[haughty shadow]

how can i import an overhead ui

[fresh sphinx]

can anyone teach me how to make a plot system

[dusk pagoda]

guys how long did it take you to be pro at coding/modeling?

[thorn arch]

It's difficult to draw a line

Probably around a year to 1.5 years for coding

A few months for modelling

[dusk pagoda]

yeah i find it easy to model now i finally can model some stuff with my own without tutorials

the first 3 days I couldn't model a thing without a tutorial

[dusk pagoda]

but coding yeah thats true its hard ngl

[thorn arch]

I mean

It was on and off

So

Luau is very simple

You can master the basics in 1-2 weeks

[dusk pagoda]

i know most of the basics but not all like the best thing i can do is make the leaderstats

[thorn arch]

With or without datastore

[dusk pagoda]

Without

[haughty shadow]

how to fix this

[inner tundra]

what is that 😭

[thorn arch]

vector:create??

Also why are you hardcoding all the raycasts?

[somber vault]

@thorn arch its to compare performance to a single blockcast

to cover the same araea

[oblique trout]

all by yourself

[thorn arch]

right but why are you hard coding it

[somber vault]

dont understnad wym

are things like AI interactions or scripting overall in a retail tycoon like game hard to do

[thorn arch]

not really

[thorn arch]

you dont have to type all those raycasts

you can use a loop

[somber vault]

how do yk

i copy pasted

[scenic lotus]

can use for loop

for i=1, totalRaycastExist, 1 do
  -- your code
end

[somber vault]

join in mine

c:

@fleet nebula if u wanna join my game or wanna learn more just dm me smth that willr emind me abt this

[thorn arch]

i can tell

[cosmic spade]

Yo how long does it take to learn how to script I got a game idea but I have 0 ideas on how to script

[somber vault]

i have a team of devs

lmao

[scenic lotus]

depends

[scenic lotus]

most people takes around 1 or 2 weeks to understand some basic I think

[cosmic spade]

Is that enough to make a delivery game

[scenic lotus]

depend on what the delivery game is like

If complex mechanic then not enough

[cosmic spade]

It's a simple game really you js buy and deliver milk to customers

And I want to add a feature where the longer you take to deliver smth the less money you will earn

[scenic lotus]

So like after reaching a certain time, if not delivery, will earn 0 cash around that or have least delivery money cap

[cosmic spade]

Yh but it won't reach 0 immediately it will slowly go down as time passes

So it's simple like Grow a garden but it has a few more things that make it more complex

Simple to understand but not Simple enough to be called slop or have a reason to be hated on

[scenic lotus]

should be like
example: the milk price is 100 and the price drop rate is 1, so it would takes 100 seconds before reaching 0 start from 100, 99, 98, . . .(but make it won't go below 0)

[cosmic spade]

Something like that but im adding a timer before it starts to drop so let's say you have 3 mins before the price starts to slowly drop

[scenic lotus]

I see

It's not hard to do

[minor cloak]

should take you like 3 weeks

if you never saw a script

[runic oxide]

you can store start time and when player delivers get the time taken and reduce it

[scenic lotus]

just takes sometime

[minor cloak]

btw

if its with a vehicle it will take a lot longer

vehicle

[cosmic spade]

Aw dang it

[minor cloak]

wtf did i write

[scenic lotus]

Vehicle is not easy to make tho

[cosmic spade]

Oh well I have the whole summer to work on it

[scenic lotus]

delivery customer and timer are much easier

[minor cloak]

i started like 6 days ago

and i can make a tool shop

with security

like remote functions

[runic oxide]

you can use opensource libraries for vehicle

Achassis one of them

[cosmic spade]

Alr yall have any tutorials I cld watch to learn the basics

[minor cloak]

BrawlDev

best tutorials

[cosmic spade]

Bet

[minor cloak]

i am currently watching it and im learning so fast

watch the begineer when you finish

do the advanced

it teaches you ai and more of that too

[trim wind]

Can anyone teach me how to code as I know the basics but have no clue how to code

[tender moon]

i need a scripter

[fresh sphinx]

i can help you with some things im slightly more advanced or js advanced

[trim wind]

Thank you

[minor cloak]

did you learn

bro istg math became so easy to me

it takes me 3 minutes to solve the question and 30 mins to write it

[junior temple]

why

[tender moon]

for making models and maps

bruh

[junior temple]

you want a scripter to make a map?

[tender moon]

lol no

i alr got someone

so no worries

but thank you for responding

[regal pasture]

yall how do I make datastores that transfer information from an experience to a place?

[junior temple]

uhh, you need to use the same datastore name and play key. like (for example "User_" .. player.UserId) (idk if im answering correctly to what you're questioning). All places must be in the same experience as well. And save data in 1 place with setasync, and load it in another with getasync

[regal pasture]

ok thx

cuz rlly im working on this game with a friend and I don't have any idea on what I'm doing

ima be real

[junior temple]

lol, just practice every now and then and you'll get better over time

[green cliff]

yo guys, im trying to figure out something that has to with ragdolls, if there is anyone who is seasoned with them PLS DM

[jaunty vine]

would this anticheat work?

a local script in serverscriptservice with a script copying it to workspace constantly and deleting the previous one. the local script detects changes to playergui, health, hitboxes, speed and jump

it does that to avoid exploits bypassing by simply deleting anticheat local script

since this would work 100%, it would perm ip ban when detected

can an experienced dev tell me if this is possible

[thorn arch]

Ip ban is a bad idea

[thorn arch]

Can trigger for innocent players

[jaunty vine]

exploiters would always try again, i can change the punishment. just would this work

[jaunty vine]

nope, how. it’s a local script detecting if changes are made

[thorn arch]

Also the only ones you should care about here is movement

[jaunty vine]

and gui changes

if they use dex explorer, they can discover fe bypasses for the game

[thorn arch]

Lag spikes can cause unnatural movement

[thorn arch]

Gui changes don't really matter

[thorn arch]

Dex is a different matter

[jaunty vine]

all the anti cheat would do is check if the properties of speed or jump power is changed. not if the movement is suspicious

[thorn arch]

Then it wouldn't detect any speed hacks

[jaunty vine]

every heatbeat:

• check if walkspeed not 16
• check if jumppower not 50
• check it local hitboxes are accurate
  if true:
• ip ban

[thorn arch]

Or flyhacks

[jaunty vine]

local scripts do

any change made with exploits is local

so local scripts know

i know that for a fact

[thorn arch]

You don't need to change walkspeed to do a fly hack

Or a speed hack

[jaunty vine]

fly hack would be something else

[thorn arch]

That's pretty obvious

[somber folio]

who can help me script shops for my roblox game?

[jaunty vine]

just tell me if this would work

[thorn arch]

Speed hack doesn't use walkspeed either

[jaunty vine]

it does

[thorn arch]

No

[jaunty vine]

it changes the humanoid walkspeed??

[thorn arch]

You can do speedhack with cframes

Which will not be detected by your script

[thorn arch]

Also for hitboxes

[jaunty vine]

ok. but what i’m saying is would it work for the simple stuff

[thorn arch]

What simple stuff

[jaunty vine]

walkspeed and jump power

[thorn arch]

No one uses that

[jaunty vine]

infinite yield does. so if someone changes it with that

but just would the idea of replacing the local script constantly work?

[thorn arch]

No, they can delete it

Before it runs

[jaunty vine]

yes but then the server script would copy it to local

[thorn arch]

Every time it's added

[jaunty vine]

every heartbeat

[thorn arch]

It can still delete it before it runs

[jaunty vine]

i would also make it so every second, it needs a response from a remote function

[thorn arch]

What needs a response

[jaunty vine]

remote functions

[thorn arch]

From what

The client?

[jaunty vine]

yes

[thorn arch]

So you will invoke on client?

[jaunty vine]

client events, i know it can be faked

[thorn arch]

Or on server?

[jaunty vine]

yes

[thorn arch]

How is that going to do anything

Since remotes can be spoofed

[jaunty vine]

see if they deleted it

[jaunty vine]

ik

but it adds an extra layer

[thorn arch]

It can still be spoofed

[jaunty vine]

i know

it just adds an extra layer

one sec

[runic kraken]

    local highlight = script.Parent.Parent.Highlight
    highlight.Enabled = true
end)

script.Parent.PromptHidden:Connect(function()
    local highlight = script.Parent.Parent.Highlight
    highlight.Enabled = false
end)``` any reason this wont work?

[clever shale]

I need help, i made this script but its not working at all. I then after sometime of trying to figure it out asked chatgpt and it just told me to ensure that ive one everything that i did (basically saying i did it right). It doesnt kick the player, thanks in advance

[solemn knot]

what wont work exactly

[solemn knot]

dont ask chat gpt shit but code its just gon spit some bs

[solemn knot]

"hiring", "no payment" </3

[scenic lotus]

🥀

[runic kraken]

it doesnt hightlight

like it doesnt get turned enabled

[solemn knot]

why are they both listeners

[clever shale]

ik but i literally dont know what to do atp. To me it looks completely right and i asked chatgpt to write the code and it literally made the exact same as mine

[clever shale]

wdym

[scenic lotus]

one of it have to fire

[solemn knot]

on the first script you have kicksent.actived:connect() and same for the second one

[coarse wraith]

you need to call the function for it to work

[clever shale]

i did

[scenic lotus]

kickEvent:FireServer()

[elfin timber]

how do people handle vireportframes?
Do you make a camera whatever you call it in studio for each thing you wanna capture
or do you just script a camera

[somber vault]

y all how would I make a serverside footstep sounds system?

[solemn knot]

listen

[coarse wraith]

its remote event bro

[clever shale]

where in the second one

[coarse wraith]

not bindable

[solemn knot]

on the client script do kickevent:FireServer()

[somber vault]

?????

[solemn knot]

not KickEvent.Activated:Connect()

[solemn knot]

the one on the right

[clever shale]

i get that but where do you see "activated" in it?

[clever shale]

ok ill try it

[solemn knot]

is the prompt hidden and shown

[solemn knot]

thats on the first one

[runic kraken]

yes

[coarse wraith]

add a script with client context inside StarterCharacterScripts with the footstep sound system, make sure that when you want to call the character you do script.parent NOT localplayer.character

[solemn knot]

set the variable out of both function's scope first so you dont have to define it each time it runs

[somber vault]

oh ty

[solemn knot]

what game is that tho

[celest cipher]

dev hub

[clever shale]

It didnt work

[celest cipher]

some place where some kids find devs

😭

[solemn knot]

Okay Hol on give me a second ill writ it for you rq

[clever shale]

thank you for taking your time to help me :)

[coarse wraith]

did you send the localplayer and target player with it?

[clever shale]

yh

[coarse wraith]

add print statements in the code, to see what works and what doesnt

like print("Server:"..targetPlayer)

[runic kraken]

still doesnt owkr

[solemn knot]

@clever shale

that'd be in the client

lemme write what would be in the server

[solemn knot]

weird, you sure there isnt any errors?

[runic kraken]

litreally none

ignore the rescaler ones

[clever shale]

so the onserverevent:connect(function() isnt needed?

[solemn knot]

and on the server?

never for it was a local script

[runic kraken]

exact same

[solemn knot]

@runic kraken instead enabling and disabling an existing highlight, make it so when the prompt is shown it creates a new highlight and when its hidden it destroys that highlight

thats how i would do it

[solemn knot]

nop

[runic kraken]

when I tried that nothing happened

i did it before

ill try again

local highlight = nil

script.Parent.PromptShown:Connect(function()
    highlight = Instance.new("Highlight")
    highlight.Parent = script.Parent.Parent
end)

script.Parent.PromptHidden:Connect(function()
    highlight:Destroy()
    highlight = nil
end)

doesnt work for some reason

no errors

[timid dawn]

@everyone hiring scripters

[solemn knot]

instead of writing " local Hightlight = nil" just write " local highlight"

that will initialize the variable

[runic kraken]

nope

[solemn knot]

weird

give me a moment ill try it out

[coarse wraith]

no you still need it

:kick can only be called on the server

[solemn knot]

@clever shale here btw for the server

thats for the server

wait i forgot sum

[coarse wraith]

you forgot the listener

[solemn knot]

yeah

it should work now

[somber folio]

can somebody help me with a code for my shops?

[obsidian glacier]

Yo I can help

[solemn knot]

sure

[somber folio]

i got my shop done

[obsidian glacier]

I can make u a animation if you want for free

[somber folio]

i need help with my auras and donations

[somber folio]

me?

[solemn knot]

wym

[obsidian glacier]

Yes

[somber folio]

i need help opening a aura shop

and opening a donation ara

area

[obsidian glacier]

I can make for free

[somber folio]

dms

[runic kraken]

Do yk why it won’t work

[solemn knot]

not yet am just reviewing the code i used for a similar effect

you could use the promptservice in a script in the starterplayerscript that's what i did

but if you do that its gonna work on every single prompt

so lmk if thats not what you're lookin for

dont mind the mutationdata and billboard variable btw i just ripped ts out of my own code lol

[solemn knot]

for the ui?

[muted nymph]

guys my game has a backdoor and some random guy gave himself admin. Does anyone know how i could find where theyre getting in?

[runic kraken]

ye it is thanks alot

[solemn knot]

good then that'll save you alot of work and performance instead of having scripts for each prompts in the game that listen for when its shown

[runic kraken]

thank god i aint got any other prompts then

[solemn knot]

yw

[clever shale]

@solemn knot it errors and says

[solemn knot]

then it means that targetplayer is nil

[clever shale]

I put my own name tho

[solemn knot]

hol on

before the variable put "print(PlrWhoSent,Targetplayer)"

for troubleshooting purposes

then show me the result

[clever shale]

I didnt even like run it tho

[solemn knot]

huh

[clever shale]

like shouldnt this function only be called when i put a player name and press send

[solemn knot]

i see

[solemn knot]

then something else is firing the event because i just rechecked what i sent and i dont see any mistakes

[clever shale]

lemme see if i made any mistakes

[solemn knot]

check your code and make sure there isnt any other kickEvent:FireServer()

[clever shale]

You sure there is nothing that supposed to be in the kickEvent:FireServer()?

[solemn knot]

nah

wait

actually

[clever shale]

idk if this is something that might mess it up, but for some reason my server script is acting weird

[solemn knot]

KickName

i forgot about that

[solemn knot]

remove those parenthesis

[clever shale]

oki doki

[solemn knot]

it should be KickEvent.OnServerEvent(KickServer)

[clever shale]

btw am i able to get kicked in roblox studio or do i need to publish and test in roblox?

[solemn knot]

also on the client its kickEvent:FireServer(KickName)

[solemn knot]

nah it should normally work on roblox studio am pretty sure

[clever shale]

Ill try it

[solemn knot]

what is line 16

[solemn knot]

oh

am duumbb

i forgot :connect

oops

its KickEvent.OnServerEvent:Connect(KickServer)

how did i forget

[clever shale]

I THINK IT WORKS

[solemn knot]

it should yeah

[clever shale]

It like freezes my character in roblox studio, but i assume that means im getting kicked

ill try publish and test it

[clever shale]

It works, tysm! 🔥

[solemn knot]

yw

[glacial kestrel]

trying to make papers please but for retroslop avatars

how should I handle the character creation

first idea was randomly generating one and then assigning slop points depending on the items it’s wearing

I’m concerned on how it’ll look

any alternatives?

[loud swallow]

can someone help me, im using tween+ and it sends my npc -340282346638528859811704183484516925440 studs away

[glacial kestrel]

^ another idea is just directly

getting avatars from people

but then how would I assign points

[loud swallow]

slow down or speed up the initial audio file and use it in slowed down or sped up version

so uh you can speed it up by 5 and use 0.2 speed in studio

[loud swallow]

anyone

[celest cipher]

thank u

[umbral elbow]

what is the point of tables?

like what is tables used for

[loud swallow]

💀

[umbral elbow]

ik you store data

[umbral elbow]

im learning

[loud swallow]

ok ok

[umbral elbow]

but how would you use it to your benefit in your game

[loud swallow]

you can iterate over them

and pack them

[umbral elbow]

so you basically pack data in a suitcase

[loud swallow]

you can get tables length and stuff which is also usefull

[umbral elbow]

and then refer to them whenever you want

[celest cipher]

@loud swallow why does my audio show 00:00 as the length

[loud swallow]

idk

[loud swallow]

ye

[umbral elbow]

what is the difference between arrays and dictionaries

[loud swallow]

for roblox its the same

[umbral elbow]

so there is no differnence?

[loud swallow]

i think so

[umbral elbow]

why would yt tutorials teach both?

[loud swallow]

those are just different types of table

[umbral elbow]

I just had 42 grams of protein

[loud swallow]

but for me its the same

they do the same

[umbral elbow]

so give me an example of why you would use arrays and why you would use dictionaries

[loud swallow]

arrays - indices and dictionary anything

[umbral elbow]

[bitter harbor]

@cosmic spade delete everything we start from the begining

[vivid acorn]

dm me

[cosmic spade]

ok

[bitter harbor]

start by typing your variable

example

local brick = game.workspace.touchpart

@cosmic spade

[inner tundra]

he is thinking vro

he is remaking the wheel in his brain

[cosmic spade]

yeah

[bitter harbor]

alright step

2

[cosmic spade]

it takes a while to open discord

[somber folio]

can some one help me script my game

i only need 2 things

[bitter harbor]

local PartIsTouched = false

brick.touch:connection(function(otherpart)

[bitter harbor]

Don’t listen to him

[umbral elbow]

Do this

[cosmic spade]

Any space between that and the variable

[umbral elbow]

It will work

[bitter harbor]

BROOOO

[inner tundra]

delete now 😡

[bitter harbor]

LET HIM LEARN STEP BY STEP

[umbral elbow]

ah

I see

[cosmic spade]

Das not how you teach someone lol

[umbral elbow]

i didnt know we were teaching

[bitter harbor]

yes

local brick

space

[cosmic spade]

Alr

[umbral elbow]

anyway you should instead just make the brick a variable and do

brick.Touched

[loud swallow]

bad for my scenario

[umbral elbow]

Touched is an event so you add a connect

[bitter harbor]

bruhh

[cosmic spade]

Anyways yeah what next

[umbral elbow]

brick.Touched:Connect

[bitter harbor]

Show me what you did

[bitter harbor]

bro stop

[umbral elbow]

Everytime you type an event you add a connect

And put function

[bitter harbor]

and a function

[umbral elbow]

yes

[bitter harbor]

and what made it function

[umbral elbow]

brick.Touched:Connect(function(hit)

[inner tundra]

peak

[bitter harbor]

use easy things

[umbral elbow]

you add the hit in the parenthesis to name your function

[bitter harbor]

(function(otherpart)

[cosmic spade]

Give it a second

[umbral elbow]

but keep in mind when the function ends you can no longer use the function

[bitter harbor]

now if statements

[bitter harbor]

yes good

now

if PartIsTouched == false then
PartIsTouched = true

[bitter harbor]

you made a small mistake

[cosmic spade]

what

[bitter harbor]

brick.Touched:Connect(function(otherpart)

[cosmic spade]

Alr

[bitter harbor]

Did you put this ?

if PartIsTouched == false then
PartIsTouched = true

[cosmic spade]

Done

Yes

[bitter harbor]

alright

so now

[bitter harbor]

print(otherpart.Name)

done?

[cosmic spade]

Yeah

[bitter harbor]

now so that it doesn’t send a lot of messages

we will add

task.wait (1)

you can put any number you want

[cosmic spade]

Alr done

[bitter harbor]

print(“hello”)

[cosmic spade]

Done

[bitter harbor]

it works test it

[cosmic spade]

Ok gimme a min

Nth...

[bitter harbor]

[cosmic spade]

No

[bitter harbor]

[bitter harbor]

Touched*
