[deft coral]

"whats up" can mean asking for someone to elaborate, or to speak more on what they need

[tacit marten]

ooh ok

[deft coral]

A parameter is a passed set of data through a function

[sour vine]

thats not an excuse lil bro theres something called education

[tacit marten]

the ragebait is crazy

[deft coral]

function Add(x, y) -- x and y are "parameters"
local result = x + y
return result
end

local returned = Add(1,2)
print(returned) -- prints '3' because the function Add added them together and returned the result

Its how you make use of functions

In code, you need to run operations to solve problems.

In this example, think of the function Add like calling an math assistant to add numbers for you. You need to tell the assistant the information. What numbers should they add?

The numbers they should add are the parameters

When you code the function, you know what to make parameters because you know what problems will need to be solved later.

[tacit marten]

so like if i do like this:

function hamburguer(ingredient1, ingredient2)
end

local recipe = hamburguer(cheese,meat)
print(recipe) -- then will print cheese and meat?```

[deft coral]

yes, though your function is empty, you've grasped the idea of how ingredient1 and ingredient2 "become" cheese and meat because thats what you gave the function when you ran it

to make that actually print cheese and meat, your function needs to do something

you need to put code in its "block"

function hamburguer(ingredient1, ingredient2)
local recipeText = "The recipe is " .. ingredient1 .. " and " .. ingredient2
return recipeText
end

local recipe = hamburguer("cheese","meat")
print(recipe) -- this will print "The recipe is cheese and meat"

[deft coral]

This is syntatically correct version @tacit marten

[tacit marten]

hmm

yes that makes sense

[deft coral]

So what happens, ill go top to bottom of the code,

you declare a function called hamburguer, right

This doesnt run code when you do this, it just tells the computer "Okay remember that when i type hamburguer i want to run the code inside"

Then, when you do local recipe = hamburguer("cheese", "meat"),

you're telling the computer "make a local variable,

assign it to what is returned from the function hamburguer by running the code inside

and give the function the parameters "cheese" and "meat"

The function then runs, which in this case it returns the variable recipeText which is just a string, or text, of the given parameters, and then the return recipeText tells the computer to give it back to where you called the function, aka the variable local recipe

[tacit marten]

i will translate ALL of this to understand wait

[deft coral]

Okie

Portugues?

[tacit marten]

yes yes

pt br

[deft coral]

Primeiro voce declarou uma function chamada hamburguer, ok?

[tacit marten]

yes

[deft coral]

A funcao nao incia o codigo quando voce a declara. Ela o salva para mais tarde. Quando voce digita hamburguer depois, ela executa o codigo.

[tacit marten]

So is that why I need to use return?
To "return" the text and then use the parameter afterward?

[deft coral]

local recipe = hamburguer("cheese", "meat") Isso diz ao computador para executar a funcao hamburguer e executar seu codigo. O codigo retorna, return, o resultado para a variavel (variable) recipe

[deft coral]

Sim

Quando voce usa a tecla (? unsure if thats the right word) '=', significa atribuir. Atribuicoes esperam um valor; a funcao retorna um valor com return

Sorry if my portugues is bad its been a few years

I also dont have the keyboard mode fori t

[tacit marten]

its good dw

[deft coral]

Does that make sense

[tacit marten]

so if i dont use return to print the ingredients, it will print nil?

bc that have to be a thing inside of the function

to work

i think im understanding more now

[deft coral]

Sim

A function does not have to return but if you want to get a result from it and use it elsewhere, like print() in our example,

you have to return

[tacit marten]

ye return a text

[deft coral]

This also works:

function hamburguer(ingredient1, ingredient2)
local recipeText = "The recipe is " .. ingredient1 .. " and " .. ingredient2
print(recipeText) -- this will print "The recipe is cheese and meat"
end

hamburguer("cheese","meat")

It will print() like before, but we did not need to return. Since code is ran when we call hamburguer it will print

[tacit marten]

ngl now i understanded the code

let me create a code now with parameters

[deft coral]

Okay

[tacit marten]

function agame(style, graphics)
    local gameDescriptions = "The game have a style of" .. style .. "and a graphic" .. graphics
    print(gameDescriptions)
end

agame("RPG, realistic")```

i did this at the first try

[deft coral]

This would work, nice job

[tacit marten]

function agame(style, graphics)
    local gameDescriptions = "The game have a style of" .. style .. "and a graphic" .. graphics
    print(gameDescriptions)
end

agame("RPG", "realistic") 

but i realized after the computer will not understand, bc i only give the value of one parameter, and not the "graphics" parameter, only the style

so now i understanded, thank u bro @deft coral

u are the goat ngl

[deft coral]

I appreciate it

If you have any other questions feel free to tag me

[tacit marten]

ok thank u again

[whole idol]

anyone know of any good roblox dev discords with good devs/comms?

[hearty knoll]

Does anyone know how to use Allama api

[young yoke]

its not classed appropriatly

you dont need to if you dont wanna

[autumn vale]

can anyone improve this bs for me cuz i have no idea what i did wrong ```lua
while true do
task.wait(0.1)

local velocity = chassis.AssemblyLinearVelocity

if s then
    if velocity.Magnitude > 0 then
        force.Force = -velocity.Unit * bp
    else
        force.Force = Vector3.zero
    end
elseif g then
    if c <= max then
        if c < max/10 then
            c += gp * 3
        else
            c += gp * (1 - (c / max))
        end
        if c > max then c = max end
    end
    force.Force = chassis.CFrame.LookVector * c
else
    if velocity.Magnitude > 0 then
        force.Force = -velocity.Unit * bp
    else
        force.Force = Vector3.zero
    end
end
if c > 0 and not s then
    c = c - (gp / 2)
end

local angularY = 0
if a then
    angularY = 5
elseif d then
    angularY = -5
end

print(c .. " v: ", velocity.Magnitude .. " f " .. force.Force.Magnitude)

end

ill still look into it, thanks for the opinion

[autumn vale]

ikr gl figuring it out

[lethal portal]

hey does enyone know why this dosent load my animations corectly? local module = {}

module.loadedAnimations = {}

function module.loadAnims(animator: Animator, folder: Folder)
for _, anim in folder:GetDescendants() do
if anim:IsA("Animation") then
local fullName = anim:GetFullName()
fullName = fullName:split("ReplicatedStorage.Assets.Animations.")[2]
module.loadedAnimations[fullName] = animator:LoadAnimation(anim)
end
end
end

return module

[simple hedge]

god i hate my life i was trying find a bum ass error for 2 FUCKING HOURS and then i just forgot to add ONE FUCKING ATTRIBUTE TO THE PART

[steep vortex]

1 using getfullname split messes up the keys so your dictionary does not match what you think
2 not calling play after loadanimation so the animation never runs
3 the animation asset is not owned or uploaded correctly so roblox will not let it play

there are a few other things but that should fix it

[lethal portal]

this is just 1 code i have someotrhers witch run the animation and print the length the issue is that its printing the length at 0 beacuse the animations dont load properly

[lethal portal]

i can show you the other codes if that would help

[steep vortex]

sure

[lethal portal]

local coreFolder = character.Core
local animationsModule = require(coreFolder.Animations).loadedAnimations

animationsModule["Fist.Swings.L1"]:Play()
print(animationsModule["Fist.Swings.L1"].Length)

[steep vortex]

your play code is fine the real issue is the key names
your loader saves them with weird fullname strings but you try to play them with shorter names
they dont match so it fails

u could fix it by using anim.Name for keys instead of GetFullName()

[lethal portal]

im not really a coder so i dont quite understand what anim.Name does but it sounds like its a 1 line fix could you show it corrected?

[steep vortex]

i can write the code for u if u want

[lethal portal]

YEA sure Id love that

[steep vortex]

give me like 10

im bored so thought id help sm1

il send it in dms

[lethal portal]

alr wdym mean by full code? like youl re write the whole thing?

[wheat phoenix]

watch brawl devs entire beginners guide and then his advanced guide then go into roblox studios come up with ideas, read open source code and practice

[nova pecan]

Guys, I have a quick question. Do the attributes work on phones?

i mean GetAttributeChangedSignal()

[cinder basalt]

woooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooow

% pay?

ive been waiting for this opportunity my entire life

[cinder basalt]

why would they not 💀

[nova pecan]

idk they just dont

[cinder basalt]

maybe yo code is just buttcheeks

[nova pecan]

i have walkSpeed attribute and GetAttributeChangedSignal() works only for pc

its just
humanoid:GetAttributeChangedSignal("WalkSpeed"):Connect(function()
print("Changed")
if humanoid.WalkSpeed <= 0 then return end
if isSprinting then
humanoid.WalkSpeed = humanoid:GetAttribute("SprintSpeed")* character.Slowing.Value
else
humanoid.WalkSpeed = humanoid:GetAttribute("WalkSpeed")* character.Slowing.Value
end
end)

[cinder basalt]

so it doesnt print changed right

[nova pecan]

its just cant get changed signal for phones

[cinder basalt]

well maybe you fail to change the attribute

[nova pecan]

same thing work on pc

[cinder basalt]

...

you probably screwed inputs

in fact you most definitely did

[nova pecan]

how did I manage to break attributes on phones without even making controls for phones

[cinder basalt]

okay, how does sprint activate

[tacit marten]

what

[nova pecan]

its like ability

[iron stump]

Better late then never

Ahh reply

[nova pecan]

and work like
humanoid:SetAttribute("WalkSpeed",18)

[cinder basalt]

what key

what activates it

[tacit marten]

🎋

[cinder basalt]

doing what

pressing what

[nova pecan]

e

or button

on screen

Weird shit

Lua is like the weird cousin of python and C

[fluid quail]

do not compare lua to my precious little beloved C

[sullen grotto]

cap how is lua related to python in any way

[fluid quail]

theyre basically the same

but one is slightly more imbred

[sullen grotto]

ur thinking surface lvl

idgaf abt syntax

lua is 100x more lightweight

if games ran on python it would be insanely slow

[random nebula]

C sucks

[sullen grotto]

damn hidden devs is rly just straight larpers

roblox is literally built on C

[fluid quail]

youre really just speaking to speak

[random nebula]

No it’s not

It’s built on c++

And c still sucks

So does c++

[sullen grotto]

c++ is way slower

[random nebula]

It’s clear y’all never used it

[random nebula]

No??

Where is bro getting his info from

[fluid quail]

and C++ is an Extension of C

[sullen grotto]

it uses both i js looked it up

but im p sure primarily C

[random nebula]

The engine is written in c++ are you stupid

Even luau is c++

[sullen grotto]

"are you stupid"

damn i cant send images

rip

look at ur profile virgin

[fluid quail]

youre purely the definition of a Luautard

[random nebula]

Buddy you don’t even know c and ur glazing it

[sullen grotto]

ninja has documentation as his status

[random nebula]

Ur just some skid

[sullen grotto]

go outside 😭

[random nebula]

Get a job

[fluid quail]

get a load of this guy

[sullen grotto]

i make mroe money than ur parents dawg

[random nebula]

Broke bum stalking me

[sullen grotto]

no ur a larper

[fluid quail]

cuz C is amazing? if it werent for c c++ wouldnt exist and C++ is perfect

[random nebula]

U haven’t used either

[fluid quail]

like my whole smartroom project is built on C++

[sullen grotto]

you are actually bottom tier human beings lmao documentation as status

[random nebula]

U thought Roblox was made in c

[fluid quail]

youre speaking like you do

[sullen grotto]

cuz it is ?

[random nebula]

I’ve used c++ for years that’s how I know it’s shit

[random nebula]

Source code leaks prove otherwise

You can also just reverse it and see a billion c++ artifacts

[fluid quail]

whats so bad about it then

[sullen grotto]

how is it built on c++ but not c

[fluid quail]

For scripting inside games, Roblox uses Luau, which is a modified version of Lua designed specifically for Roblox.

Engine/Core: C++, some C# for tooling

Studio editor: C++/C#

Game scripting: Luau (Lua derivative)

If you want, I can explain why Roblox switched from Lua to Luau and what differences it brings.```

ChatGPT btw

[random nebula]

Horribly unsafe and lacks useful language features

[fluid quail]

whats your fav language then

[random nebula]

Bro using gpt as a source

[random nebula]

Take a wild guess

[fluid quail]

chatgpt is trained with google information

[fluid quail]

luau?

python

[random nebula]

Because the source code is in c++?

[lean ocean]

The source: chatgpt

[random nebula]

Show me proof it’s written in c

[random nebula]

Rust

[sly plover]

creating a tycoon door/laser door using a touched event to filter would be exhasuting for the server wouldnt it? How would I go about this while also having smooth performance

[sullen grotto]

if its written in c++ its written in C gang

[fluid quail]

the player/studio program, at least on desktop, is written in C++ (unless something has changed that i'm not aware of). but other platforms are a different story```

-Some Reddit user

[sullen grotto]

C++ is inherited from C

[random nebula]

It’s trained on random shit

[random nebula]

??

[fluid quail]

thats a good one, i heard rust is insanely fast and efficient

[fluid quail]

whats the difference between google and ChatGPT

[sullen grotto]

discord user virgin "sangolemango" thinks he knows what data chatgpt trained on

😂

u dont know basic ML

[random nebula]

Google is a search engine and ChatGPT is an llm hope that helps

[sullen grotto]

dont talk 2 me gng

[fluid quail]

C++ is built off C everything that runs on C can and will run on C++ (plugins etc)

[lean ocean]

people who call other people virgins are the lowest of the low

look at yourself

[sullen grotto]

cuz ur a virgin lol

[fluid quail]

i meant answer wise, google has 1000s of different answers and ChatGPT will pick the most common one

[random nebula]

He’s mad he’s broke and gets zero women

[lean ocean]

you're 12 years old dwelling in your mom's basement calling other people virgins

[random nebula]

And is beyond stupid

Don’t bother lmao

[fluid quail]

this is irrelevant btw

[sullen grotto]

i have multiple apps that print MRR

but u got it rust documentaiton bio

[random nebula]

ChatGPT makes shit up and his hella out of date

[sullen grotto]

i can tell ur broke bc u have something to prove

[random nebula]

Documentation LMAO

This how I know ur stupid

[lean ocean]

you can literally tell chatgpt you can teleport in real life and it'll probably agree with you

[random nebula]

Hd people really are just stupid now

[fluid quail]

thats true, but it depends on what topic were talking about, if i ask it about something that happened minutes or days ago then ofc it wont know, so itl generate a fake response, but usually stuff thati s heavily documented is pretty acurate

[sullen grotto]

• i have no job and im mad ai is replacing me

lemme translate that

[random nebula]

U have no job and ur broke

Pick a struggle

[fluid quail]

why is this relevant?

[sullen grotto]

#media lets compare apps and saas rq

[random nebula]

It wasn’t accurate with Roblox so

[fluid quail]

we're all kids? and no 14-17 doesnt mean youre an adult youre still a kid

[fluid quail]

i think youre just projecting

[sullen grotto]

ngl bro has said i have no job so many times

im p sure thats his exact situation

😭

[random nebula]

He has no job and no money and no women and nothing of value in his life yet criticizes other people

[lean ocean]

this is so off topic it doesn't make sense

[random nebula]

Crazy amounts of projection

[fluid quail]

ikr like ok say it once or twice but he said it so many times

[sullen grotto]

bro u have rust documentation in ur bio im js speaking the truth

your a lsoer gng im giving u critcisim so u dont look stupid

[fluid quail]

and neither do you?

you are likely a 13 year old boy

[random nebula]

“Speaking the truth” “you have rust documentation in your bio”

[sullen grotto]

@random nebula like bro i promise u no one talks u seriously rn im giving u genuine help

[random nebula]

Except I do?

[fluid quail]

suure buddy, ur like 13 no you dont 😭

[random nebula]

Help yourself by getting a job

[fluid quail]

if you were an actual adult you wouldnt be programming in Luau

[random nebula]

I program in rust

[fluid quail]

then why are you here

[random nebula]

Because I also do Roblox dev?

Ur not very smart are you buddy

[fluid quail]

you're btw, you guys keep messing it up

[random nebula]

Ts not a spelling bee

[sullen grotto]

@fluid quail ego him he wont take criticism from anyone else

[fluid quail]

i dont care if i am? my ego isnt that fragile, so 🤷‍♂️

[idle musk]

post a game

[random nebula]

Ironic

[fluid quail]

right, his ego is so fragile

[tired roost]

@random nebula post a game if ur gonna talk shit

[fluid quail]

im pretty sure my life is alot better than urs

[tired roost]

post a game or post a repo

oh wait u dont have any

💔

[random nebula]

Proof I don’t

[sullen grotto]

no git hub connected but programs in rust

😭

[random nebula]

For someone you have blocked you keep talking about me a lot

[fluid quail]

blocking people on discord is lowkey crazy

[tired roost]

he also said "if u want to be a rust contributor recommend this" as if he wouldn't fiend at the opprotunity to clain he's a rust contributor

[fluid quail]

this just reinforces the fact that your ego is hela fragile

[tired roost]

i just like not seeing ur messages

[random nebula]

Yeah because you know about me

[idle musk]

@random nebula u gotta stop being so condescending to people, it just makes people dislike u in any area of life

[tired roost]

but ur still a larping doofus

[fluid quail]

wait u keep mentioning u have money? how much you talking about cuz i got 1001€ in my bank account and i can easily prove it

[tired roost]

who can't post a game or repo

and until u stop being a larping doofus

i will continue to talk shit on u

[lean ocean]

@tired roost has sango "blocked" you're perceiving it wrong lol

[random nebula]

Vro I’m not losing anything by people like you not liking me lmao

[sullen grotto]

wasnt even tryna be a dckhead to him he js has rust docuemntation in his bio so i was literally js tryna help bro out

[random nebula]

Ur not that important relax

[fluid quail]

ive worked with huge youtubers like Enardo Xcretion and throat (all over 100k subs on youtube) and i can prove it by showing dms and the game im still working on

[tired roost]

change for the better sango

[random nebula]

It’s not documentation are you stupid

[tired roost]

maybe u can get real friends then

or maybe u want the jecs guy to call ur a loser again

Lowkey: theory...

[random nebula]

Holy projection

[tired roost]

sango likes being called a skid

[fluid quail]

how old are you?

[tired roost]

which is why he acts like this

[fluid quail]

you had to steal my comeback?

eclipse mentioned you not having friends once, do u know what projection is?

you said it like 50 times thatgs kinda different

[fluid quail]

soo, how old are you?

@random nebula lowkey i would just drop out of roblox dev communities

if i got called out like this

[random nebula]

Yk what’s funny

I was right at the end

As always 🥱

[tired roost]

💔 this is why u have 0 friends 😭

[fluid quail]

that doesnt matter btw

what have you done in life?

[random nebula]

Ur projecting too much

[idle musk]

[random nebula]

I think ur in love with me

so he wont

[sullen grotto]

this shit is so unfunny

i know a lot about http stuff, but idk much about roblox specific behavior

[sullen grotto]

for chatbot games that r trending on roblox

can u connect http service to a deployed backend which is connected to chatgpt

or do they js spam if else algos

[proud idol]

i mean lua is built with c in mind tho

[proud idol]

why is c and c++ yucky in your point of view

from what ive been taught, C and C++ are very efficient perfomance wise, but the learning curve is big and theres plenty of things that can fuck the program up if ur not careful

like memory leaks

[wheat pumice]

not at all

python and lua are not similar in any way, not syntax nor functionality

[wheat pumice]

C++

[wheat pumice]

C++ is not compatible with C.

[sullen grotto]

bro stop pinging me

ts was more than an hour ago i dont care anymore

[wheat pumice]

also no, c++ is a seperate language, seperate codebase (for most compilers).

hello i need some assistance. i am trying to make a slide. slide as in the movement not the thing u sit and go down on 😅.

my issue is i use bodyvelocity however doing so if lets say i slide off a ledge the player will keep sliding while hovering at the same level since there is no -y value but if i do add a -y value to always bring the player down when you slide normally on the ground the players starts to glitch/jitter since there is a constant force pushing you down what do i do

[cinder basalt]

what

[violet grotto]

?

what part should i explain better

[cinder basalt]

how did you screw that up

anyone know how i would make pathfinding for enemy group formations? Right now i have a leader pathfinding whenever i reach a waypoint with members moving to an offset every frame, but its really inefficient. Is there any way to make it faster?

[stable verge]

does anyone use vscode?

[crisp bay]

any pro scripters who have knowlege with scaling

anyone got any knowlege or know a dev forum which discusses how fisch like backpacks are scaled, bc the height of the main frame changes which aint something that scale or offset does

[wispy shale]

hi does anyone wanna make a game with me

someone who can script

[flint plaza]

It’s probably not Scale/Offset causing that, check if UIAspectRatioConstraint or AutomaticSize is on the frame. Those will change the height even if your scaling looks right.

[crisp bay]

its fisch ui i dont got access to it gng

[cinder basalt]

its probably just set size on one axis and scale on another

[cinder basalt]

i checked it for ya

they have a separate ui for mobile

same thing could be achieved through a combination of scale and offset

[summer phoenix]

Bro is coding this hard?

[snow raft]

dont use ai to learn coding

you learn how to code first then you can make AI to tedious stuff with very specific instructions so it doesnt fuck it up

[latent shoal]

Learning coding from BrawlDev it's easy bcz he explains everything in simple language

[cinder basalt]

then you realize you gotta learn actual stuff after that simple syntax explanation

i can already tell you gonna be doomed after the tutorials 💀

[distant hamlet]

claude the philosopher

[azure granite]

guys has anyone used codex for roblox

[lilac crescent]

@pine solstice

[wise turtle]

Is brawldev the goat

[distant hamlet]

ai for coding is diabolical

as if you werent using ai to vibe code anyway

[azure granite]

why

ts goated

[distant hamlet]

this why u still skidded

[azure granite]

im just using it to fix bugs

[distant hamlet]

even more skidded

[azure granite]

so

[distant hamlet]

ai is incapable of solving logical bugs especially in a large project

unless u plan on feeding ur whole codebase to ai even after which it will still pump out inaccuracies

so assuming ur bugs are just attempt to index nil or argument #1 is missing

sure

[azure granite]

i am

[distant hamlet]

major skid

[azure granite]

so

[distant hamlet]

u aint baiting nobody but urself with that one

[azure granite]

no like whats the issue

of being a skid if i make the game in the end

[distant hamlet]

whats the use of making a game if ur a skid in the end

[latent shoal]

Yea after the tutorial what should I do?

Maybe use ChatGPT ??

[rustic crane]

if u wanna learn literally just go make something

then you will start asking questiong like how do I do this or how do I do that

thats where u learn

[azure granite]

ok but what if u learn the wrong thing then u just wasted time and u have to spend time relearning the correct way

[rustic crane]

u can never learn the wrong thing

if you reach your desired result who cares

thats the goal at the end of the day really

don't be afraid fr just go do and make whatever u want and evetually u will get better

[full anvil]

how do people handle gui updates, do you use a playerdata cache on the client and if so how do you save the deltas (via remote event) and then update the UI?

[rigid rover]

elaborate by what u mean gui updates

[full anvil]

for example if the player obtained a quest it saves to an active table in my data template then to actually show the quest via gui to the client is what im stuck on

[rigid rover]

remote event

just send the table or the specific stuff it needs in the event

[full anvil]

to the player cache then i fire a signal and there would be an listener to update the gui

[storm monolith]

can anyone help me fix my car dealership ill pay for ur help

[rigid rover]

[storm monolith]

im discussing code bum

[rigid rover]

no ur not ur trying to hire a scrioter

bum who u callign bum

[storm monolith]

no im not id rather not pay but if someone wants money then i will

[rigid rover]

then go to #spoonfeedmescriptsplssss

[storm monolith]

hahahaha 😑

bro just in this chat for no reason

[rigid rover]

no you

[mystic dagger]

how would i go about making a moveset system like forsaken

[raven marsh]

you would make a movement system like forsaken

[mystic dagger]

how

[mystic dagger]

can anybody help me w this

[rigid rover]

no

[arctic belfry]

Yea if you go into more detail

What exactly do you wanna achieve

[mystic dagger]

just a moveset system when you load into a round

[rigid rover]

i think uhhh i think umm the forsaken movement

[mystic dagger]

like

you get certain moves for the certain char u play

[arctic belfry]

I think uhhhh I don’t know what forsaken is

[rigid rover]

its ok me too

[storm monolith]

i have a car dealership that only one of the cars was buyable and ive been trying to use chatgpt to fix the others but now none of the are working can anyone help ill pay

[arctic belfry]

You’d just make a library of information

[fair cradle]

who wants a scripter for free

[rigid rover]

sparka this is the code discussion channel

[mystic dagger]

#scripter-hiring

whioops

[storm monolith]

i know bro do u rly have nothing better to do other than sit in this channel and yap without helping anyone

and is there no better form of entertainment for u

[rigid rover]

yea i aint spoonfeeding u sparka

so ungrateful

[storm monolith]

bro i said id pay wtf

and ian asking u

[rigid rover]

#scripter-hirable pay them

[storm monolith]

not even replying to u anymore bruh

[mystic dagger]

so basically would i just make like some info about them and store it in repstorage or smthin likethat

[rigid rover]

bruh why what i do?

[arctic belfry]

It would be like

local module = {
Character1 = {
[“Name”] = “Cool Guy”,
[“Ability1”] = 1,
[“CharacterId”] = 1
}
}

return module

Now I wrote that on my phone

So don’t just go copy and paste it

[mystic dagger]

k

[rigid rover]

thats crazy

[arctic belfry]

Probably a syntax error in there

[arctic belfry]

Yea youd want it to be in replicated storage

[mystic dagger]

and then basically when the round starts i just get the info and make like the moves show on the gui and stuff

[arctic belfry]

Just a module script that list every character information

[mystic dagger]

what about like functioning moves

[arctic belfry]

Then of course you gotta create separate systems to actually use the information

[mystic dagger]

would i t be like

[arctic belfry]

Well you’d wanna make a framework

[mystic dagger]

wait

i typed that wrong

[arctic belfry]

So that would be, everytime a key is pressed check if it’s a key that can trigger an ability

Assuming you won’t have custom keybinds

You’d do something like

[mystic dagger]

well most moves will either have q e or r as their keybinds

but idk if ill have custom keybinsd

[arctic belfry]

Alright then you’d do this

• Detect when a key is pressed

• Assuming “Skill1” will always be binded to the R Key check if that key pressed was R

• If it was get the ID of Skill1 from the corresponding character information

• Fire to your skill framework. Your skill framework should be a master module with all skill modules as children under it, it should then fire to corresponding skill module, so InputDetection -> MasterSkills - > Skill1

Super general overview

But you should get the idea

[mystic dagger]

alright

[wet wedge]

yooo im tryna build a portfolio so i can start doing small commissions is there anything i can do for anyone for some feedback n maybe a review for free

[atomic pumice]

uhm

why cant i upload files even in creations 😭

[remote bear]

i am making a pixel display using rich text. this code with be the basis/ demo for the project. any suggestions on improving the code

[ember nimbus]

you do local text = '<font color="'..color ..'">'.. txt ..'</font>' and have other concatenation going on, would it not be better to just directly insert it all into the table

also you can almost definietly reuse t between renders so it doesn't have to recreate & rescale the table

[hasty mesa]

or just use a buffer

so it dosn't have to constantly recreate a string

[ember nimbus]

are buffers friendly with unicode?

never tried it

[hasty mesa]

buffers are raw bytes

[ember nimbus]

i know what buffers are

but does buffer.tostring support unicode

[remote bear]

arnt buffers are slower than tables?

[hasty mesa]

faster then string concatnation

[hasty mesa]

it should

[remote bear]

oh yeah i dont really need the txt variable

[remote bear]

i though of that but the code compresses text next to each other to save space so i would have to make a new table to track both the colors and how many where assigned. how should i go about that?

[ember nimbus]

idk what you mean by "compresses text next to each other to save space" here

but if buffers do support unicode like hao said you want to use a buffer

[hasty mesa]

you can also just pre assign the headers

and just directly write the hex value

as a number

[remote bear]

if a character next to the current character is the same color it will put them both in the same <font> brackets saving 29 bytes. This also repeats until a new color is shown or there are no more pixels

[ember nimbus]

is your usecase of this system a learning experience/passion project or is it for an actual game

if it's for an actual game i would suggest using either editable images or canvas draw or some ui gradient based system

[remote bear]

i loved using Canvas draw V3.4.1 witch used gradient based graphics and i don't like how roblox is blocking use of their API under giving your id and face. this project will hopefully be a faster display for that version of canvas draw

[ember nimbus]

if your goal really is performance idk if you'll hit it using string manip

[hasty mesa]

using buffers would be the fastest overall

[ember nimbus]

don't optimise for both memory and runtime

the horizontal greedy meshing type thing you have probably severely bottlenecks you

*maybe not with your current system but it would bottleneck you if you swapped to buffers, which would be a vast speedup

[remote bear]

i kinda did with my demo code. the test with random colors was slower by around 0.002-1 but tests with two colors had my program faster by around 0.002. the tests took everything into account like color map creation etc so take this with a grain of salt but this is proof it might have potential

[ember nimbus]

you random colour function looked like it would be a perf bottleneck on its own

oh nvm didn't read the last half

but buffers would be much faster

[hasty mesa]

the most expensive operation would probably be the string concatantion here

[ember nimbus]

with buffers the only writing you would need is the hex codes

you would just write a hexcode for each colour, and increment your offset by a static amount

[hasty mesa]

yeah

[remote bear]

yeah so i am planning on tracking color map creation, string creation, strong concat and text update. same with canvas draw

[remote bear]

yeah strings are pretty expensive when it comes to memory. i want to try and cache it

[hasty mesa]

just use a buffer 😭 , you'll only have to write color codes

[ember nimbus]

static int buffer_tostring(lua_State* L)
{
    size_t len = 0;
    void* data = luaL_checkbuffer(L, 1, &len);

    lua_pushlstring(L, (char*)data, len);
    return 1;
}

[hasty mesa]

and you can have a fast random modify

[sly plover]

Why in the flying mother fuck is this not changing the string value's value?

local slotchosen = nil

for i,v in pairs(player.PlrStats.Inventory:GetDescendants()) do
            if v:IsA("StringValue") and v.Value == "" or v.Value == nil then

                slotchosen = v.Name

                print(slotchosen)

                break
            end
        end
        
        player.PlrStats.Inventory:FindFirstChild(slotchosen).Value = char.Name```

[remote bear]

i will soon, i have used them before

[hasty mesa]

add prints

[sly plover]

it prints the slotchosen

it just doesnt seem to change the value

the lines below it work

the lines below is just tweening

[hasty mesa]

print the value after setting it

[sly plover]

alright

[hasty mesa]

and how are you checking if it changed

[sly plover]

explorer

theres a folder under the player

I just check those string values

and also the fact that all the characters are going to the next avaliable slot

stacking up

for example slot 2 is empty

they all go to slot 2

never slot 3 and they just all stack

[rough vine]

Hao! Check DMs

[sly plover]

I'm lost

cuz it looks like it would work

[remote bear]

how would you pre assign them so that you can add the hex to it?

[hasty mesa]

pre compute them

[sly plover]

I got questions about optimisation, how much should I manage in server/client

[hasty mesa]

try printing it after you change it a few seconds later

[sly plover]

Cuz at the moment most stuff is on the server

Like buttons, prompts etc

[hasty mesa]

after that you just need to step by the headers

[ember nimbus]

user input stuff should all be client sided really

there are more grey areas like hitboxes where people have different opinions

[sly plover]

Not sure if I put vfx in the server or client, vfx can be tolling for mobile users if on client

Some devices can't handle it

[cobalt rock]

anybody good at types?

[ember nimbus]

vfx must be on the client

when you spawn models or particles the replication cost is crazy if it's not set up to do it all on the client

and client sided vfx let you have accessibility/perf settings to turn it down/off

[sly plover]

So should animations right?

[ember nimbus]

if it's to do with an individual client or entirely visual it should be client sided

[sly plover]

Final question if you don't mind, npcs

Like models etc

Buildings

Parts etc

[cobalt rock]

I'm facing an issue where I have:

export type B = {
 value: typeA.A;
}

return nil

How do I make the two modules not be dependant on eachother

I don't want to move all my custom types into one module as it would eventually be thousands of lines

[ember nimbus]

in most circumstances you won't really be able to optimise model loading more than roblox

most if it is first time loading though, which often isn't an issue

[cobalt rock]

any help is appreciated

[ember nimbus]

for NPCs, if you have loads, most people do implement custom replication

[ember nimbus]

do you use studio or vscode

for vscode i know some people write custom global type definition files

[sly plover]

Alright ty for the help

[ember nimbus]

for studio some people do an extra Types module or something

[placid matrix]

move those types into a shared type module

[random nebula]

It’s horribly unsafe and the compiler is useless in helping you catch UB

[hasty mesa]

i just keep all types in 1 module

[random nebula]

It’s also difficult to do some performance patterns cuz the language sucks

[placid matrix]

twk a segfault blew up a spaceship once

[sly plover]

Wdym

The values don't change/update

In the player folder

[random nebula]

Rust exists and it’s better and can be faster than c++ (because it can abuse more ub if needed), much safer and can support those extra patterns

[hasty mesa]

did you print if the value changed when you set it

[sly plover]

Like under the line or you mean like a propertychangedsignal

[hasty mesa]

second one would be better

first one can also be used to double check

[sly plover]

I don't think it would work

The string value never gets changed

Even tho it's in clear day in the script that it should

[hasty mesa]

never know if its being modified when it changed

[sly plover]

It's confusing

[hasty mesa]

and did you check on the server

as well

[sly plover]

Sorry lemme get on the pc rq

Ok

Lemme add a event

wait

@hasty mesa

if I sent a character from a server to a module

would that value save

wait noit does save

hence the tweening

my brain is fried

[hasty mesa]

server to what module

modules don't replicate automaticlly

you would have to use remote events for it to replicate module changes

[sly plover]

hm

so I added a GetPropertyChangedSignal event

and it did print something

it said the value was modified

but it doesnt seem to like actually change the stringvalue's value

wtf 😭

        
        player.PlrStats.Inventory.Slot2:GetPropertyChangedSignal("Value") do
            print("Slot 2 value was changed")
        end```

here's the code I used

I'm deadass so confused

[hasty mesa]

you ned to connect it

[sly plover]

oh

[hasty mesa]

and should print the value

and add it before you set .Value

[sly plover]

wait wdym

[hasty mesa]

--changed fuc
value.Value = x

[sly plover]

so you wanted something like this right?

            print("Slot 2 value was changed".."Modification: "..change)
  end)```

[cobalt rock]

If I keep all the types in 1 module

the module could become like

[hasty mesa]

yeah

[cobalt rock]

10k lines long

[sly plover]

yeah it doesnt print anything

[hasty mesa]

did you change the value below

or above

[sly plover]

its above

[hasty mesa]

the value

[hasty mesa]

can you print the current value

and then print the value you are setting

[sly plover]

it will come up as nil

or ""

not nil like this " "

[hasty mesa]

print the value you are setting then

[sly plover]

it says Slot2

[hasty mesa]

i mean char.Name

[sly plover]

        
        for i,v in pairs(player.PlrStats.Inventory:GetDescendants()) do
            if v:IsA("StringValue") and v.Value == "" or v.Value == nil then

                slotchosen = v.Name

                print(slotchosen)

                break
            end
        end
        
        player.PlrStats.Inventory:FindFirstChild(slotchosen).Value = char.Name
        
        player.PlrStats.Inventory.Slot2:GetPropertyChangedSignal("Value"):Connect(function(change)
            print("Slot 2 value was changed".."Modification: "..change)
        end)```

[hasty mesa]

local slotchosen = nil
        
        for i,v in pairs(player.PlrStats.Inventory:GetDescendants()) do
            if v:IsA("StringValue") and v.Value == "" or v.Value == nil then

                slotchosen = v.Name

                print(slotchosen)

                break
            end
        end
        
        player.PlrStats.Inventory:FindFirstChild(slotchosen).Value = char.Name
print(char.Name)
        player.PlrStats.Inventory:FindFirstChild(slotchosen):GetPropertyChangedSignal("Value"):Connect(function(change)
            print("Slot 2 value was changed".."Modification: "..change)
        end)
        player.PlrStats.Inventory.Slot2:GetPropertyChangedSignal("Value"):Connect(function(change)
            print("Slot 2 value was changed".."Modification: "..change)
        end)

can you tell me what this prints

or send the output

[sly plover]

alr

lemme check

[hasty mesa]

my type file is only 7183 lines so far

and that includes comment docs

[hasty mesa]

char.Name is empty?

[sly plover]

oh wait

im deadass stupid

😭

I changed the names to " " to hide the rig name

no wonder dude

I'm guessing thats the issue 💔

[cobalt rock]

also having an object A have a value in it of the type object B and object B having a value in it of the type object A would cause infinite table circulation, how would you fix this?

[sly plover]

is there any other way to hide the rig's name instead of manually just making it blank

[hasty mesa]

the type system is smart enough

[hasty mesa]

should be a humanoid

property

[sly plover]

I see it now

damn i was stupid how did I forget that

[sly plover]

anyways ty for the help

[cobalt rock]

huh

[hasty mesa]

type system supports recursion

where types depend on other types which depend on it

[cobalt rock]

is recursion necessarily bad

[hasty mesa]

no

[cobalt rock]

alright

thanks for the help

very very much appreciated!

[sly plover]

Sorry 1 more question @hasty mesa 😭 , would it be better for the server if I destroyed objects or put them in a bin folder and used clearallchildren()

which would be better for performance/memory

[hasty mesa]

well clear all children might be slightly faster

i've never really tested this

would be something you can check

[sly plover]

since when was destroy deprecated 😂

[hasty mesa]

hm?

[sly plover]

apparently it's deprecated

[hasty mesa]

remove is deprecated

destroy shouldn't

[sly plover]

I see

alright ty for your help 🙏

[hasty mesa]

ClearAllChildren is slower from my basic test

Destroy would be better

[sly plover]

Alright ty

[wide cairn]

What language is this?

[still token]

luau i think

or lua

i honestly dont know

[polar snow]

.

[frail vapor]

buying good roblox games dm

[wide cairn]

I thought some python or java

[frank crow]

does anyone know how to make a e to sit 0/2 system?

[strong fog]

use proximity prompts

[frank crow]

ye but idk how to check how many players are sitten

[strong fog]

use tables

[rigid rover]

int value

[frank crow]

and how do i do that?

[rigid rover]

when a player sits add him to table

[strong fog]

it code discussion not the we will write code for you

[frank crow]

didnt ask you to

[strong fog]

i literally gave you hint how to do it

[frank crow]

like no one asked you anything

[strong fog]

just try make it/ do your own research

💀

[rigid rover]

hey bro we dont gotta help u

[strong fog]

bro acts like he is boss here

[frank crow]

BRO WHO ARE YOU

[rigid rover]

im the best

[frank crow]
