lol

fr

let me ask the ex principle of studio

[deft coral]

actually?

[real hemlock]

yup

[potent glen]

Guys how useful is roblox controllermanager for a custom movement system

Or should i just code my own from scratch

[real hemlock]

ill lyk if i get a response

he might be under nda on that topic

we shall see

[deft coral]

Hopefully your post gets seen, tag me if you get any replies highkey

Ive argued with studio heads about this

As in they wanna do github but they overcomplicate it for a simple project, but I have no defense cuz its lowkey like yeah its kinda doodoo

[real hemlock]

Will try to get my contacts to budge

I’m going to ask if it’s even ties internally first but if it isn’t it’ll take a fuck ton of detanglinh

[real hemlock]

they do tend to give decent responses to features such as here

https://devforum.roblox.com/t/runtime-containers-with-package-manager-support-in-roblox-studio/3987421/3

so i’m hopeful

[deft coral]

Lmk

[real hemlock]

in discussions rn

[deft coral]

Lfg

[real hemlock]

"they only exist in team create afaik, so there shouldn’t be any “file” that exists at all to save them in"

ok so thats out the question

the point made earlier

[deft coral]

that was stupid of me to suggest given to show you i had to enable team create

lol

but that does also show like

then they DO have it

lol

[real hemlock]

yes i did piss off an engineer to get that response by waking them up at midnight on a weekend

but alas

it’ll get reviewed soon

i believe

[woven gazelle]

[gilded stag]

Can someone help me in #dev-discussion ❤️

[north rivet]

Why did no one tell me about table.find

Im starting to notice that most things that exist in roblox have a smaller or dumbed down version of itself

[balmy zenith]

how do you not know

[north rivet]

I Just never knew

never showed up tilll i used a bit of chat gpt

[balmy zenith]

how do you not read all docs of standard libs

[north rivet]

What that

thats a thing

pls send it

[balmy zenith]

umm

[north rivet]

i usally just start coding and look it up and find the roblox documentation that needs it and cycle through till what i use works

and if that dosnt work then i use chat gpt

[balmy zenith]

Wtf is this 😭✌️

[remote bear]

i call this string compiler function alot. any more tips for slight optimization?

i am sorry for the video quality in advance

[slate bloom]

why would you use lerp over tween

[slate lotus]

the bit rate is fine dw

[balmy zenith]

holy whitespace

Now for graph comparison

😭 more math and I gotta overlay multiple paths 😭

and I gotta fix this to be a module script

[glacial girder]

i am very unemployed

[wooden sorrel]

who loves graphs

not me

[ember nimbus]

we've been over this 🗣️

1. use buffers

[wooden sorrel]

why can path2d only support 100 points 😭

much better

now to make the paths connected

[white nova]

son what the hell are u making

[wooden sorrel]

graph

😄

[white nova]

https://tenor.com/view/spongebob-scared-fright-gif-1407771759511089766

[wooden sorrel]

I need to implement tangent based smoothing

and scroll wheel zoom in and out

then need multiple path2d's

since max is 100 points on a single path2d for some reason

[somber vault]

Ahh okay makes sense

[wooden sorrel]

and I need to render around 32000 points

😄

I kinda wanna see what performance is like with 100 path2'ds rendered

[somber vault]

Yeah no makes complete sense

[wooden sorrel]

but its either multiple path2d's or I make my own path calculation which I really can't be bothered doing

so thats the goals for tomorrow

[somber vault]

Yeah I hate doing path calculations

[hasty isle]

Who here is a discord bot developer?

Check message

[random nebula]

whats vec()

[livid crater]

like wht

[proper oxide]

does anyone have game ideas

[livid crater]

bainrot clicker 😭

[proper oxide]

Thank u could u give more information about it

[livid crater]

idk js a cash grab

[proper oxide]

i will send the results here after its done

[livid crater]

click a button the more you click the more you "brainrot"

[livid crater]

oki

[strong fog]

is it good practice to detect (while holding a tool) player mouse and when player press on something it checks if target is player if yes then it deals a damage? someone know how to add rays of shoot like beams idk

[remote bear]

its just a rename of vector3.new, its a micro optimisation

[shy cipher]

I heard tweening on the server is really bad so for a door sliding system (for an anchored door) I'm thinking about teleporting the door to the "opened" position on the server and making all the clients tween till it's opened instead, is this a good idea?

[balmy zenith]

it isnt even optimize, hell its probably slower so dont do that

[random nebula]

its not even an optimization cuz it doesnt do anything, vector3.new is compiled to the same as caching

and yeah its prolly slower

never cache builtin functions

[balmy zenith]

.new is fastcalled or whatever whilst yours prolly dont

idk dont quote me on that

[shy cipher]

what about stuff like math.random()? I thought putting local behind them makes them faster

[remote bear]

idk man its used in of grathics displays faster then mine

[random nebula]

as for what u can do, pass segment information like segment.offsetMin as parameters (either numbers or vectors)

[random nebula]

it does absolutely nothing in them

[balmy zenith]

no, never do such thing

[random nebula]

you can check the bytecode

if ur unsure

i guarentee u that it does not make it faster

[balmy zenith]

unless its like for readability which would be very rare

[shy cipher]

what font are you using

[random nebula]

you may also be able to remove the first nested if

[shy cipher]

ok but thoughts?

wait not this one

[balmy zenith]

^

[shy cipher]

this one

[random nebula]

table.insert is also faster than t[#t + 1]

[strong fog]

is it good practice to detect (while holding a tool) player mouse and when player press on something it checks if target is player if yes then it deals a damage? someone know how to add rays of shoot like beams idk

[shy cipher]

how do you format discord messages into lua code again?

[mild mulch]

``

[random nebula]

pass display.Screen as a parameter to the function also

[shy cipher]

what character is `` brah

[balmy zenith]

just tween on both, tweening on server isnt inherently bad, its just that it gets replicated at 20 hz(?) which may look laggy

[mild mulch]

quote.

the one before 1

[shy cipher]

from what I found it repeatedly updates the property which has to be replicated to all clients and that's bad I guess

[remote bear]

source sans, the regular font

[shy cipher]

``lua

code
``

[remote bear]

does that make a proformance difference? or is there another reason i would do that

[balmy zenith]

i guess if youre concerned about network

[shy cipher]

but how to format it into lua?

[slate bloom]

i will do ANYTHING FOR 12 DOLLARS

[mild mulch]

``` luau

[balmy zenith]

nuke

[slate bloom]

ANYTHING

[shy cipher]

shake it thrice for the camera

[mild mulch]

.

[slate bloom]

ok bet

call me rn

[mild mulch]

local

[slate bloom]

no ong tho i need 12 bucks

[shy cipher]

I'm sure discord doesn't support luau because that's like a roblox thing because it doesn't use pure lua

[mild mulch]

wait lemme

[slate bloom]

```lua
print blah

[mild mulch]

ye that

i was used to github's markdown where u have to space after quote

[slate bloom]

print("OEAJPEING")

[random nebula]

yes because ur constantly indexing

[remote bear]

how come? Since i heard the opposite since t[#t + 1] = 1 doesn’t do as many checks as insert but my sources may be old i am not too sure

[random nebula]

benchmark it urself, table.insert does t[#t + 1] internally in c++

[shy cipher]

my messages aren't sending ahh

ok phew it's only with the code formatted messages

[strong fog]

is it good practice to detect (while holding a tool) player mouse and when player press on something it checks if target is player if yes then it deals a damage? someone know how to add rays of shoot like beams idk

[shy cipher]

crisis ahh english

[remote bear]

ok i will test/ compare them later

[shy cipher]

so when I enter after formatting my message into a discord message, it just creates a new line instead of sending it

[balmy zenith]

.insert optimizes by traxking stuff instead of doing #t every time and unless you can do less #t than it, yours is worse

[remote bear]

Thanks for the tips

[strong fog]

you got crisis on luau

[shy cipher]

print("hello chat")

that sends but not the lua formatted one

[shy cipher]

you have the same crisis brother

[random nebula]

its funny tho ur doing meaningless optimzations like vec() but not caching ur table accesses

[remote bear]

yeah making the whole thing a for loop with the index as its value would make not using # easier, but that would get in the way of my greedy merge part of the code. I will test both table methods. Thanks for the explanation

[shy cipher]

how do you cache stuff again? all I know is convert to buffer

[strong fog]

nah

[remote bear]

I am caching the color tags instead of constantly remaking it (though i dont think my method is the best way of doing it) and i have added a past screen chace since the sceen is in sections so it makes it easier to reuse parts of they are the same. But I commented it out for the stress test. I am not sure how i would cache t or sub t though

[shy cipher]

would this work to position the door left by exactly how wide it is?

[remote bear]

no because you didn’t specify the axis to move

[random nebula]

do stuff like local function update_segment(offset_max: vector, offset_min: vector)

[balmy zenith]

prolly half

also assuming width is x

[shy cipher]

yep it is

[shy cipher]

oh right I'm boneheaded I'll fix that

aha

[remote bear]

np, i know its just an example

[shy cipher]

wait no it's still wrong xd I only gave the X values and not the other two lmao

[proper oxide]

divide the size by 2

[balmy zenith]

id use cframe

so its local space transformations

[proper oxide]

size/2

[balmy zenith]

in case its rotated

[remote bear]

i am not sure you can edit individual axis’s like that. Try pos = doorPos- vector.create(doorSize.X, 0, 0)

[balmy zenith]

so like
door.cframe *= cframe.new(doorwidth/2,0,0)

[balmy zenith]

vector.create

[proper oxide]

yes but if ur subtracting it do

door.cframe *= cframe.new(doorwidth/2,0,0):Inverse()

[remote bear]

https://tenor.com/view/gülmek-komik-gif-12950352696137374051

[proper oxide]

door.cframe *= CFrame.new(doorwidth/2,0,0):Inverse()

[proper oxide]

signs like those dont work in CFrame world

[balmy zenith]

really? u sure?

[proper oxide]

yes u need to only use *

[balmy zenith]

it wouldnt make sense for it to not

[proper oxide]

unless ur using CFrame.new(Vector.new-Vector.new)

[balmy zenith]

i mean - to the offset number

[shy cipher]

I tried this, it works but it gives a weird effect where from the two doors only one remains??

[proper oxide]

CFrame.new()-CFrame.new() wrong but CFrame.new()*(CFrame.new():Inverse()) is correct

[proper oxide]

u forgot to divide the size by two

[shy cipher]

why would that matter? I'll try and see what happens

[balmy zenith]

i mean do *= cframe.new(-offset,0,0)

[balmy zenith]

bc the origin is in the middle

[proper oxide]

thats good

[remote bear]

Not if i said it runs at 30fps on my potato window

[shy cipher]

it does this ahh

[balmy zenith]

also what u tryna do? why not editable image

[proper oxide]

nvm uhh remove the divide

[proper oxide]

theyre moving on the same direction

the left door goes left and right goes left

it should be left door goes left and right door goes right

[shy cipher]

door.Position = Vector3.new(doorDefaultPos.X - (door.Size.X - 0.1), doorDefaultPos.Y, doorDefaultPos.Z)

trying this, also leaving some of the door exposed so I can actually close it

[shy cipher]

o right

how do I decide which door is right or left huh

[balmy zenith]

can prolly rotate the door 180

and use same code

[proper oxide]

name them

[remote bear]

because whats the fun it that . But i also dont want to give my face and id to Roblox or its third party for some API that people should have acess to in general.

[shy cipher]

I'm using tags tho, I think I should use the tags as an identifier for the door and the name as an identifier for right or left

I'll try that

[proper oxide]

or what u could do is

u can rotate one door opposite 180 degrees

[balmy zenith]

its worth trust

[proper oxide]

then RightVector*Size

Door.CFrame.RightVector*Size

[shy cipher]

oh but I'm ripping off horrific housing and that's not how it's done in the game for obvious reasons, it happens on floating plates and you can get pushed off if it rotates

[proper oxide]

no not in how the door moves

but the door is already rotated 180 degrees

so the rightvectors look opposite

[shy cipher]

it's actually not rotated at all

[remote bear]

if there was a company I trusted Roblox would definitely not be one of them for many reasons and past incidents.

[proper oxide]

thus opposite directions move

[shy cipher]

oh that makes sense

[proper oxide]

u should rotate one door 180 degrees

Door.CFrame.RightVector*Size

[shy cipher]

yeah I was just gonna say that

[proper oxide]

lemme see the result

[balmy zenith]

ok but like, they wont intentionally leak it

[shy cipher]

never understood why people multiply this stuff in code when it gives the same result as adding it, and adding it errors? what's happening bruh

[proper oxide]

oh shoot i did a wrong thing

it should be

[balmy zenith]

it should be multiply

door.position += rightvector*amount

[remote bear]

https://tenor.com/view/woman-peeling-off-ear-stantwt-stan-twitter-girl-peeling-off-ear-prosthetic-ear-peel-gif-4612265920586285731

[balmy zenith]

(or cframe it)

[shy cipher]

why multiply it? I know it's gonna give the result in mind but I don't know why

[balmy zenith]

because you are lengthening the right vector

which is a unit vector

[proper oxide]

some rightvectors are negative or positive

[balmy zenith]

which has length of 1

[proper oxide]

if u want them to go opposite ways, u gotta make one door opposite direction

[shy cipher]

I've heard that's called normalising the vector. they tell how to do it but not why you should do it or why it's even helpful so I never really get the point

[balmy zenith]

because it makes it length of 1 meaning you can multiply by arbitrary number to make it X length

[proper oxide]

u should do it because it makes a lot of sense in getting directions

[shy cipher]

if you are going to turn it into one then why not use the number one? well if it includes some proportionality i can see the reason

[balmy zenith]

wym include the number 1

[shy cipher]

like literally just 1

[proper oxide]

because the size

u multiply it with size

[balmy zenith]

because a vector3 has 3 numbers

[proper oxide]

if the rightvector is negative

the size goes in the negative direction

[shy cipher]

1,1,1

[balmy zenith]

that does not have the length of 1

use pythagorean theorem

[shy cipher]

so you want a singular number?

[balmy zenith]

no

length = sqrt(a^2 + b^2 + c^2)

[shy cipher]

like a combination of the x,y and the other axis (I can't type it) turned into the number 1?

[balmy zenith]

the length of 1, yes

[shy cipher]

ok but why should I normalise a vector

[balmy zenith]

because a vector with length 1 multipled by a number X would make the length X

[shy cipher]

so multiplying will give me the accurate direction even if it's positive or negative, adding it gives the risk that if it's negative I won't get the result I want?

[balmy zenith]

multiply by a number is same as multiply by Vec3(N, N, N)

[balmy zenith]

adding is simply wrong, because what you want is to lengthen the vector in the original direction
not offset it

[shy cipher]

yes basic algebra but why should I multiply by the length

[balmy zenith]

simply put, when you interpret a vector3 as a direction
multiply by number makes it longer
adding a vector3 skews the direction

[balmy zenith]

so its longer

to make it the desired length

[shy cipher]

multiplication preserves the direction? adding wrecks it?

[proper oxide]

because this

lets say u have a larger number

10 + -1 = 9

10 * -1 = -10

[balmy zenith]

yes

[shy cipher]

this is so enlightenment

[balmy zenith]

say
(1,0,0)

(1,0,0) * (3,3,3) = (3,0,0)
(1,0,0) + (0,1,0) = (1,1,0)

[shy cipher]

can you make an equation for both left and right doors and compare with multiply vs add

[proper oxide]

Multiplying rotates the direction, and Addition just doesnt make sense

they have their own cases for scenarios but for this particular one u just need multiplication

[shy cipher]

I'm thinking multiplication applies to all axes so it works with the direction, adding is one-sided or something

[balmy zenith]

multiply scales it from 0,0,0
adding offsets it
if you visualize it as a vector, it would make sense

[proper oxide]

adding can be used for different examples like if u want offset instead of changing the whole direction

[balmy zenith]

for adding, it would now not be directly up, but diagonally pointing to the left/right

[shy cipher]

oh yeah I never considered a case where there's 0

but I'm sayin' the vector is pretty abstract and it probably is just a position value. how do we know where it's facing?

or are we considering the orientation too as in cframes

[balmy zenith]

a vector is just multiple numbers, it can be interpreted into many things like size, position, rotation, direction

[shy cipher]

so the direction should be a mean of all axes I'm guessing?

[proper oxide]

a list of axes based where its pointing at

[shy cipher]

ya but all axes point in a different direction so how do you figure out the vector's direction as a whole

[balmy zenith]

not. you offset axis by axis

basically, you draw a line from 0,0,0 to 1,1,0

[proper oxide]

like u point a cframe

cframe.new(origin,origin+direction)

then u get the cframes orientation

[shy cipher]

ah so we increment the values (I'm visualising in a 3d space) and that gives us the direction at the end?

[balmy zenith]

which is why
AtoBdirection = (B - A).Unit

[shy cipher]

what really is the direction as in value tho? is it in 360 degrees? radians? some other value?

[proper oxide]

in orientation property

degrees

[crimson juniper]

boi

[shy cipher]

but orientation wants 3 values and this is like one value

[proper oxide]

orientation will give a vector3 value

if u run the code and get the orientation in run testing mode

in explorer

[balmy zenith]

a direction is a direction, you cannot interpret it as something else or itll be malformed, or unless you have a way to map the two interpretations of vectors

[balmy zenith]

direction is 3 values too(vector3)

although i believe orientation is a better representation of true rotation

[shy cipher]

can we use orientation to find the direction

[supple spindle]

just convert the vector to orientation

i did it aswel like that

so i had it in degrees

[balmy zenith]

yes but you would have to define which axis of the orientation to mark as your direction

ie x axis or -z axis

[shy cipher]

what's the difference

[balmy zenith]

simply a different interpretation

you could ask the same of whats the difference between a position and orientation, after all they are both 3 numbers

[fathom sundial]

z axis is perpendicular to the x axis so if ur using the z axis its completely different than the x axis

[balmy zenith]

thats legit the definition of an axis

[fathom sundial]

well he asked what the difference was

told him the difference

🤓

[shy cipher]

no I meant the difference of taking different axes for interpretation for direction

[balmy zenith]

well it would point to different directions of course

imagine a cube

each face/surface of the cube can be considered a direction

[shy cipher]

what if I just want the general direction would I take the average

[balmy zenith]

define "general direction"

[shy cipher]

no idea how to say it in words

[balmy zenith]

well id assume you mean the default, which is usually forward which is -z in roblox

[fathom sundial]

you might want the lookvector then

[shy cipher]

cframes give this weird bug

[balmy zenith]

it should be like
open: door.Position += door.RightVector * doorWidth/2
close: door.Position -= door.RightVector * doorWidth/2

[proper oxide]

the other axis

the other 2 axis

[shy cipher]

width is the X axis right?

[balmy zenith]

sure

[shy cipher]

it works nicely thanks

[shy cipher]

door width is a singular X axis value, while rightvector is a vector3 (I think) so why doesn't the multiplication error

[balmy zenith]

because it auto converts to vec3
like X turns into (X, X, X)

[shy cipher]

natively?

[balmy zenith]

yes

[shy cipher]

would it error if it didn't convert

guys looking for a builder+modeller for a unique game, giving 15% revenue if ur both modeller and builder and 10% if only builder. dm me now if u are a expirienced builder cuz we gonna earn tones of robux and u get 10-15% of it

[shy cipher]

go to the marketplace

[balmy zenith]

yes

In distance it does

[balmy zenith]

legit doesnt

doesnt matter if its negative or not its squared

[slate lotus]

i am deadass interested in how grow a garden's growth system works

[balmy zenith]

probably simulates per atom

[shy cipher]

I think it takes the time you were offline then passes it into a function to grow your crops using that much time. then I guess it procedurally generates a plant with that time, probably dividing the plant into many baseparts where the primarypart of the plant model is the current part being growed from; using some logic to generate a fruit or flower here and there after some basepart generation

[brisk delta]

actually? ☠️

[grim carbon]

cant pay tho

[wheat pumice]

local lastTick = tick()
RunService.Heartbeat:connect(function()
local deltaTick = tick() - lastTick

if deltaTick > interval then
     sendGlobalMessage()
     lastTick = tick()
end

end)

[grim carbon]

whats that?

[wheat pumice]

obviously

[wheat pumice]

a timer

[grim carbon]

oh for me? :D?

[wheat pumice]

or just do

while true do
SendGlobalMessage()
task.wait(interval)
end

both work

[grim carbon]

so thatll make it so every 60MIN smt cool happens?

[wheat pumice]

in your case the second would be better, as you dont require precision

[grim carbon]

thank you!

[wheat pumice]

u need to implement the features like SendGlobalMessage yourself obviously

[grim carbon]

ye no worries i might be dumb but not that much

[wheat pumice]

also, make sure to do it on the server, and spawn the loop under a seperate thread

[grim carbon]

okie dokie

[zenith cloak]

Im genualy asking how are you able to make a server proof flying system cause like its straight up not possible to make it server safe does anybody know how?

[grave zenith]

Blox fruits developers handles a game that 99% of people in this community cannot in the long term, so the issue isn’t the developers

[brisk delta]

that didnt work..

[grave zenith]

Why would you need the position

[brisk delta]

for a system

[grave zenith]

No but in what use

[storm laurel]

try .AbsolutePosition

[brisk delta]

inventory system

[grave zenith]

Uhh k

[brisk delta]

i already tried that, it didnt work

[balmy zenith]

u capping

[timid vessel]

[somber vault]

Is there a function for when I player has loaded in to the game?

[brisk delta]

use PlayerAdded

[shy cipher]

what's the absoluteposition

[proud creek]

the absolute position in offset on a screen of a gui object

[grim carbon]

can someone help me upgrade my code?

[grim carbon]

pls can someone help?

[native quest]

What do you mean by server proof? If your making a flying system, anything that isn't strictly the player controls should be handled by the server. So what are you suggesting?

I have a question for anyone who is in this chat. What is the closest language to luau and how did you learn luau?

[gleaming ermine]

Tutorials

[tribal comet]

Thats what im doing rn. But what is the closest language to luau?

[south bridge]

english

[slate bloom]

python

probably very simple

[tribal comet]

That is another I'm learning.

[slate bloom]

Good

you can make alot with python

[tribal comet]

I mean programming language.

[runic quiver]

Anyone know a series that I can use for scripting (im a total beginner), I asked my friend to teach me and he gave me a full script and told me to study it, which I didn't cause I didn't understand anything

[tribal comet]

Brawl Dev on Youtube.

He has a really good tutorial.

[runic quiver]

He teaches everything?

[tribal comet]

Let me get a link.

[runic quiver]

like from the start to advanced type scripting?

dw

I see it

[muted copper]

Are you actually interested in learning scripting?

Like fully locked in?

If so accept my friend request

[proud creek]

well there is a plug-in for that tbh lemme link it: https://create.roblox.com/store/asset/9544897050/Emitter2D-Create-UI-particles

[dry agate]

If I want to hire someone to do that, should I hire a VFXs designer or scripter?

[proud creek]

For emmiing gui particles?

[dry agate]

Yes

[proud creek]

A scripter, Gui Vfx is not a thing in roblox by default so you have to script it. (Hope this helps!)

[gloomy kernel]

yo can yall read this for me and explain whats going on

[narrow warren]

my game might be in danger if i cant figure out what theyre asking

[dry agate]

Okay thank you

[proud creek]

I can't this is 100P lol

[proud creek]

I went through google lens because the text is just not legdible, i'll tell you what I find out!

Ok so pretty much there is a user that probably has done bad things or somthing, anyway you need to deleate there datastore api so ye

[gloomy kernel]

ok

[barren anchor]

i made a simple door open on E script but when i press E, my character turns into osama bin laden? Is that common?

[proud creek]

use a flipbook texture with the plugin

and make sure the frame is very small for fire

so it all is in ine place

you don't need to spend money unnecessarily

[barren anchor]

so .. about my problem?

[proud creek]

can you please share a video?

[raven wadi]

i heard that you can use modulescripts to sort of replace remoteevents, is there any benefits to this?

[torn cargo]

B

[deft coral]

You cannot

Module scripts do not bypass the client server boundary

[strange kiln]

r u paying

[raven wadi]

yh mb i meant bindableevents

[hasty mesa]

bindables are slow and copy data meaning if you send a table it won't be the same table on the receiving end

[raven wadi]

aight thx

If any of ya'll who are in the chat know Python, can you tell me how you learned.

[autumn oak]

how do i get the bundle id with a part of the bundle

[indigo thorn]

are you a experienced scripter or not already a scripter? python itself is a fairly simple language, I already knew how to define variables and how to for loop just with roblox luau knowledge, im probably missing some but within an hour I already knew most of the basic syntax. Usually if I wanna learn a new language I go to a crash course ( i dont think I watched a python one maybe i should, and GAH DAMN THEY ARE BORING), then I make projects and google and fix problems, after all of it I send it to chatgpt and let it roast my ass. Besides python is pretty much just a library language ngl. The only hard part is learning the libraries (which is just time and memorization)

how long have you been developing for?

[bold sequoia]

I played around with free assets for like a week 4 years ago, then 1 year ago messed around in scratch and made 2 decent games. But actually developing in luau for 2 weeks

[pallid cairn]

What have you learned so far with coding

[bold sequoia]

Basics like if, functions, arrays, events, properties, instances, input service, tween service, basic Vector3 and CFrames, leaderstats, basic UI interaction

I'm assuming it just attempts to fill in the blanks for such scenario

"My heart is functioning properly and has no issues but.."

It is made to answer questions

[fallen summit]

"my liver has no issues and is functioning properly that is it do not assume anything else and everything is fine"

it just gives general advice on how to keep it healthy

5/10 ai tbh it keeps assuming the worst until you reassure it 1000 times

[wooden sorrel]

anyone know how I can programmably set the tangents on my path2d to smooth my graph?

[strong spire]

What ui library

[fair shoal]

whats the best way to (without using instances) track status conditions of a player (i.e. isBlocking, isParrying, isStunned inCutscene, etc etc)

should i be making classes for every status condition

[wooden sorrel]

how can I use math to calculate tangents to smooth this graph?

[wooden sorrel]

in fact nvm

who needs smoothing

ill just make so many data points it looks smooth

time for 1,000,000 path2ds

[manic urchin]

yo guys

im tryna learn some other languages like python and java

how can i learn it the best way?

[last spruce]

do i game devs disable the player walkspeed to 0 for loading screen or do they some how disable them when they load?

[fair copper]

guys i need some feedback, how do i polish this more? except the ui frames n stuff, scripting wise

[deep oyster]

So the character doesn't load?

[deep oyster]

It's fine to me.

Now, you just gotta make it look good.

[fair copper]

u mean visuals

[deep oyster]

Yea

[fair copper]

i was thinking of adding a character rotator type thing

if people scroll they can rotate the character

[deep oyster]

o yea, 100% add that

[last spruce]

like yk for loading screen you dont move or does it not load and you just see loading screen

[lean ocean]

Walkspeed

[deep oyster]

It's either walkspeed or anchoring root

[last spruce]

How do like big studious make it so that players spawn in a private server and when they hit play they spawn into the main game

[balmy zenith]

just teleport

[last spruce]

so the teleport service

[deep oyster]

They set Players.CharacterAutoLoads to false. When player clicks a button, it calls :LoadCharacter()

TeleportService is only needed if when they click play, they are teleported to another place.

[real hemlock]

@deft coral Hi quick update - the guy who started code sync on the engine has informed me whilst GitHub is the best approach, he is actually pretty unsure if the internal systems are actually tied to Version History in the last 12 months. Therefore, since it isn't a thing the principle is aware of right now I have a very big feeling someone may have overcomplicated the system to tie every change to a "scripts in bulk" version, instead of doing the logical thing of connecting it to version history. Nontheless, since he is no longer working at ROBLOX I am going to actively bump this thread in 7 working days but I am awaiting a further response from someone who works on a different sub-team within the engine who may have some further insight for us.

Sorry I could not be of more help - two people have both said they don't even think it's made yet and has been neglected pretty much.

Think I pinged the right dude, if not my bad 😔

[last spruce]

how to make it players spawn in the character custom server instead of main server

[balmy zenith]

teleport reserved server

[covert olive]

could a client technically edit a module script by itself in rep storage

or nah

[brisk delta]

yes

[covert olive]

aw man

ok thank you for the help

[brisk delta]

use the server to double check everything

[covert olive]

no its just a module that

handles placing animals

[distant hamlet]

he can do anything but its local to his client only

[tardy shard]

yeah, but those changes wont replicate to the server's copy of the modulescript

[somber vault]

what does pairs and ipairs even do

been scripting for almost a year and still havent used it

[gleaming timber]

any scripters looking for a job? offering 5-15$ usd per task

[wheat pumice]

what the fuck have u been coding bro

how do u iterate over a table

[somber vault]

for i, v in table do

[wheat pumice]

ah, the abstraction makes people stoopid

[somber vault]

?

[wheat pumice]

that just calls ipairs/pairs under the hood

[somber vault]

oh

its just really simple for me

[cinder basalt]

and

[somber vault]

and i live by that

[wise turtle]

no it doesnt

[somber vault]

then what does it do

[cinder basalt]

it does the same thing so it doesnt matter now

[wheat pumice]

it doeant directly call it, but the bytecode is the same

[wise turtle]

ipairs/pairs has to go through indirection

the prep calls are also different

[cinder basalt]

but this, this is such an idiotic take

[somber vault]

ok but why do people use it

[cinder basalt]

they dont

[somber vault]

90% of the code i see use it

[cinder basalt]

old code

[somber vault]

just seems so extra

oh

[wheat pumice]

no

[cinder basalt]

or people learned when it was necessary

[wise turtle]

yes

[cinder basalt]

its still used out of habit

[somber vault]

yeah i started coding early this year

[wheat pumice]

oh. O0

oops

fair, very small difference tho

[somber vault]

is this good code though? (im adding my full pathfinding function soon)

RS.Heartbeat:Connect(function()
    local path = pathfindingService:CreatePath({
        AgentCanJump = false,

        Costs = {
            Bridge = 1,
            Danger = 1000
        }
    })

    local success, errormessage = pcall(function()
        path:ComputeAsync(fighter.HumanoidRootPart.Position, goalPart.Position)
    end)

    if success then
        for i, point in pairs(path:GetWaypoints()) do
            local part = Instance.new("Part")
            part.Size = Vector3.new(1, 1, 1)
            part.Position = point.Position
            part.Anchored = true
            part.CanCollide = false
            part.Parent = game.Workspace
            part.BrickColor = BrickColor.new("Really red")
            part.Transparency = .67
            
            debrisService:AddItem(part, .1)
            
            startWalk()
            
            humanoid:MoveTo(point.Position)
            humanoid.MoveToFinished:Wait()
        end
    else
        warn(errormessage)
    end
end)

see here i use pairs for some rzn

just saw it on forum

[cinder basalt]

'see here i use pairs'

no you dont, someone does

dont use code that you dont understand

[somber vault]

yeah dw

[somber vault]

its just pairs

[cinder basalt]

and you still say 'for some reason i use it'

[wise turtle]

ipairs also also has to load values into the register because it needs to call a function that returns next, tbl, and starting index

[cinder basalt]

CRIMINAL coding approach

[somber vault]

only thing i got from the forum is just how to use pcall and pathfinding

thats why the pairs is ther

there

[cinder basalt]

ah the assembly level scripters

why do we need to go that deep

lets just live in peace in luau

so im using ai to make me a simple pathing npc and some reason on the torso theres like a gray floating part anyone know wtf it is and how to remove or make invisible?

[somber vault]

why wont studio compute a path to the center of this hitbox

only the hitbox has cancollide on

everything else is nocollison noquery and notouch

[last spruce]

**can someone rate my script and tell me where i can improve on and make it more advanced

a simple script that has a loading screen and if the player press play they be teleported to the main game**

local ContentProvider = game:GetService("ContentProvider")
local ReplicatedFirst = game:GetService("ReplicatedFirst")

local Players = game.Players.LocalPlayer
local playerGui = Players.PlayerGui

ReplicatedFirst:RemoveDefaultLoadingScreen()

local LoadingUi = script:WaitForChild("LoadingUi"):Clone()
local PlayUi = ReplicatedFirst["Play Button"]:WaitForChild("PlayUi"):Clone()
local button = PlayUi.TextButton

PlayUi.Parent = playerGui
LoadingUi.Parent = playerGui

button.Visible = false

local assests = game:GetChildren()

for i, asset in pairs(assests) do
    ContentProvider:PreloadAsync({asset})
    
end


task.wait(4)
LoadingUi:Destroy()


button.Visible = true

local teleportRemote = game.ReplicatedStorage["Remote Events"]["teleport player"]

button.MouseButton1Click:Connect(function()
    teleportRemote:FireServer()
end)

[somber vault]

how do i make pathfinding go to an object rather than the origins position????

[iron kraken]

make a loading ui that loads baesd on how much of the assets are loaded rather than waiting 4 seconds

and add a skip feature to skip loading

or only allow skip after important assets are loaded

[kindred heart]

why do u need it to go to the center of the hitbox rather than just a point around it or directly infront

[somber vault]

Because the npc can come in all different directions, and they just need to touch the hitbox

Its just a big hitbox

[kindred heart]

yh so surely do points in a circle around it idk

[somber vault]

That wont work

[sturdy kindle]

if i use and learn code from yt tuts in my game, will i still learn what like each script does and functions and syntax

[slender wharf]

Maybe, but not that much.

[deep glade]

as long as u listen to the guy and not just blidnly copying the code,you should also read documentations since they go deeper than the typical tutorials

[sturdy kindle]

where could i find documentations

[deep glade]

https://create.roblox.com/docs/reference/engine

roblox creator hub

[sturdy kindle]

theres alot holy

[deep glade]

not much

[sturdy kindle]

under classes

[deep glade]

just find whatever youre learning from the tutorial on the creator hub

you dont really need it if you feel you already understand what it does

but if you dont the documentations there to be read

[sturdy kindle]

ohhhh

cuz when i learn the code from tuts i understand it but i can never seem to remake it

[deep glade]

it just depends on how consistent you are with scripting and if you put what you learned to practical use

[deep glade]

same

all you can do is just practice

i just spent like 2 hours today trying to do a teleportservice script

with no ai just documentations

and i learned alot more

[sturdy kindle]

oh cool

[deep glade]

just dont blindly copy the code word by word

try to understand what everythings doing

and say it out loud what each line does

like youre making a tutorial video

[sturdy kindle]

yeah

[deep glade]

good luck

[sturdy kindle]

i understand code i just cant make anything for myself 😭

[deep glade]

hope you make high quality games

[sturdy kindle]

🫡

[shy cipher]

start a passion project, rip off a game I don't know (I'm currently doing that and making good progress). when you use your own engineering skills to solve problems and find out the intricacies of simple stuff (like spleef) and face more problems of wanting to make it better than the original (like customisable spleef with effects) then it just comes to you automatically

[sturdy kindle]

i should just try to make my first game the passion project

[shy cipher]

well if there's no direction and actual design you're not really getting anywhere, either start from a game with a good base (e.g a friend's project) or try to imitate another game entirely so you know the direction and idea of what you're making instead of coming up with it out of nowhere and succumbing to poor planning

[sturdy kindle]

i mean i planned out a game for myself

i have a basic understanding of everything but scripting is different

[shy cipher]

I don't know about you but I'm remaking horrific housing from scratch, it's a pure-scripting sort of game that doesn't include a lot of building or other studio skills. you can try too if you think you're an intermediate at the least

[sturdy kindle]

oh nice

my idea is like a fighting game or hunting game

i can use tuts for the big things but ill try to make the ltitle things myself ig

[shy cipher]

that's too big of a scope unless you're making very basic stuff that doesn't need perfect cooperation between the camera, client, server and all that. meaning you also have to factor in network optimisations

[shy cipher]

no learning there

best I can recommend is a party round-based game

[sturdy kindle]

ohhhhh

[shy cipher]

if you've seen "advanced" tutorials on youtube (which are more like intermediate, you haven't seen advanced yet) then you're qualified to solo dev this kind of game

[proud idol]

Doesnt preload async yield the script?

[sturdy kindle]

i watched some of brawldevs advanced

[shy cipher]

it's literally in the name, async. async means asynchronous, meaning it's not gonna yield the script

[proud idol]

i see

but what about this lol

[iron kraken]

it does i think

[proud idol]

it does

[shy cipher]

then it's more like preloadsync lmao

I tried to make sense with what's in the name

[iron kraken]

ok mb idk y theres a wait then i think he can just remove it no

[proud idol]

he could, still should give option to skip in case internet is mc donalds wifi

[somber vault]

Looking for groups/games that make robux im paying with $$

[open vault]

local part = script.Parent

part.Touched:Connect(function(hit)

local humanoid = hit.Parent:FindFirstChild("Humanoid")



if humanoid then
    humanoid.Health = 0
end

end)

working on this

task.wait(0.5)
end

oh wow thats cool

[shy cipher]

I need something to put in my portfolio 🥹

[open vault]

like what

[shy cipher]

coaching expertise, fishing master, naval fleet owner, etc

[shy cipher]

I need coaching experience so I can brag about it

[open vault]

[shy cipher]

this is so english

[open vault]

it actually is

or pneunomoencephalography

[open vault]

i litterly speak english bro my whole life ik it

[proud idol]

So far this looking good

Not sure how much content u wanna add

But base looking solid

[fair copper]

well its kinda modular, i just add clothing or hairs n stuff like that and it expands the cycler

scripting wise, what do u think anything more i can add?

[iron kraken]

u spelled guardian wrong

[fair copper]

yeah i know

xD

[proud idol]

Cant really tell you myself, it depends how much content are you proyecting to add

Which would be indicated in the game design document of ur game

Not sure if ever wrote that

[fair copper]

i have a rough design

i dont have a game design doc explaining everything tho yeah

[proud idol]

You should write

You dont know how much it helps

[fair copper]

yeah ngl just lazy about it lol

i have a figma workspaces

explaining how stuff works

😂

can you use hairs from ugc marketplace for games?

[keen forge]

hi lads

[keen forge]

thats cool af

i always wondered how people coded dashes in combat systems, never tried it out

[fair copper]

impulse or some force

i think

[keen forge]

like you add a vector force or something ?

[fair copper]

i use velocity and impulse in some types of dashes

velocity is more controllable

impulse is like a cannon bullet

sort of

lol

[keen forge]

lmao

got it

I need to dive into it on my next games

[fair copper]

i gotta lock in after food break

[keen forge]

Since im only making a tycoon i don't really messed with anything related

[fair copper]

make ur tycoon interesting

[keen forge]

Coffee break

[fair copper]

💯

hate frontend ngl

cyall

[keen forge]

cya bro

[brave flax]

Anyone know if sin is good for lobbed projectiles?

Or should I use other typa math

[keen forge]

its good

[open oracle]

Well projectiles follow a parabolic curve so probably not

[keen forge]

you need to get the function bro

bezier curve or smthing idk

i've only made circles tbh

spirals

[open oracle]

Literally use the position from accelration formula.. which is a parabola

Why would you do anything else than the literally formula which gives you the exact path it would follow in real life

[keen forge]

hehe he's right

[brave flax]

Because it’s not real life it’s Roblox

[open oracle]

So you want your projectiles to look inaccurate?

And how would you even use sin? It oscillates.. are your projectiles just gonna go back up eventually?

[brave flax]

Not inaccurate but I want them to look cartoony

[iron kraken]

give it some initial velocity in an upwards angled direction then decrease the y component of the velocity using the acceleration of gravity

[brave flax]

What if I need it to reach a certain height?

[iron kraken]

give more velocity until it reaches that height

[kindred heart]

sin works

[iron kraken]

and u can prob find out the path by using desmos

[brave flax]

But I want it to reach a specific height and distance

And with sin I can do it

[iron kraken]

ok yea u can do that

[open oracle]

You can do that by setting the velocity

[kindred heart]

are u tapped

if u throw a rock does it keep going forever?

[crimson juniper]

what if i throw rock with full caseoh power it goes forever

[solar inlet]

is there a better way for a random reward func?

[somber vault]

Is it possible to set a pathfind to an object instead of a specific location

[solar inlet]

object location

[somber vault]

Wdym

Thats just the position

[solar inlet]

yea

[deft coral]

Yikes thanks for update

[somber vault]

The thing is that the object is too big so the game thinks its blocking the pathfinding

Its just a hitbox

[solar inlet]

you mean the pos is in the mid of the obj?

[somber vault]

Yeah

[chilly canyon]

Uh

-- Module script:
local Rarities = {
   {"Item1", 0.00001}
   {"Item2", 0.01}
   {"Item3", 0.1}
};

return Rarities;

-- script:
local Rarities = require(--[[Module script]])

local function GetItem()
   local RNG = Random.new(); -- You could use math.random, this is just what I chose.
   local Counter = 0;
   for i, v in pairs(Rarities) do
       Counter += Rarities[i][2]
   end
   local Chosen = RNG:NextNumber(0, Counter);
   for i, v in pairs(Rarities) do
       Counter -= Rarities[i][2]
       if Chosen > Counter then
           return Rarities[i][1]
          end
   end
end)

[real hemlock]

hi

[somber vault]

why tf does the barbarian go zigzag through the old and the new path??

so annoying

[iron kraken]

is htis roblox pathfinding?

[somber vault]

yh

[iron kraken]

dont use roblox pathfinding

[somber vault]

why

[iron kraken]

especially for simple movement like this u dont need it

[somber vault]

yes i do

[iron kraken]

since the ai only walks in 2d u dont care about the y axis u can make ur own that is a lot better

[somber vault]

it depends on the troop
