Hi

[fossil pecan]

I need a working booth

[somber vault]

I can help Alex

[fossil pecan]

i sent a dm

function Customer.start(self: fullCustomer)
    self._step = self._step + 1
    if self._step > #customerLife then
        self:finishedLife()
        return
    end

    task.spawn(function() -- IF you want to ignore step's yields
        pcall(function()
            customerLife[self._step](self)
        end)
    end)
end

-- functions inside of the cycle can yield, error
-- and they shouldn't care if new functions got added/removed from the cycle ( customerLife )
function Customer.enterShop(self: fullCustomer)
    local model = self.customer
    local humanoid = model:FindFirstChild("Humanoid")
    if not humanoid then 
        self:leaveStore()
        return

    local goTo = newPath(humanoid,model.PrimaryPart.Position,self._shop.entrance.Position)

    Customer.spawn,
    Customer.enterShop,
    Customer.headToCashier,
    Customer.headToCounter,
    Customer.finishedLife
}``` that simple

there

[marsh kelp]

I hate you man, you made me think

[balmy zenith]

lol

[marsh kelp]

I was just lazying around in discord :(((

• I'll think about it for a bit and reply to u

[balmy zenith]

alright

[edgy venture]

first of all its so hard to test these kindof stuff so i dont even know if it works 100% of the time, second for some reason every time i join it gives me the item into my inventory

--SERVER

[midnight dock]

dat booth too butt

[fossil pecan]

work in progress btw

[edgy venture]

Use Comic Neue Angular font and also bold it

[uneven jolt]

Currently working on a system, im using the player object as a key in a hashmap, but when I try to compare it back to the player object, the key value shows <Instance> Is there a wy I can compare that with the player object? the third print is the conditional comparing the two

[tight hill]

don’t use these for keys, they are replicable. use a primitive type instead like userId

[uneven jolt]

Yeah I jus realized it was a hashed pointer

So I gotta go through and change everything

[tight hill]

Find All and switch and add .UserId

[uneven jolt]

Thank you!

[shut sorrel]

that is how you play sounds, make sure it's in a part or in the player gui or a similar container

[wheat pumice]

why do u define self

and not just use the namecall syntax

[balmy zenith]

hell is a namecall

also not my code

[wheat pumice]

lolwat

namecalls are these foo:bar()

they turn into foo.bar(foo)

[balmy zenith]

sorry, didnt go to programming school

[wheat pumice]

automatically pass the first argument as self

[balmy zenith]

yeah ik

[wheat pumice]

neither

what has this server become

22 messages

[balmy zenith]

does roblox specify anywhere how much a fixed sized editable mesh compared to non fixed size?

[balmy zenith]

instead of budgeting for the maximum possible complexity supported by a non-fixed EditableMesh.
so ig non fixed sized is 20k tris

doodoo code

[edgy venture]

who are you to tell me that vro 💔

[distant hamlet]

timmy tough knuckles over here 🥀

[edgy venture]

yooo you misspelled tuff btw

[distant hamlet]

ur script is doing too much

[edgy venture]

it does 2 things bro

[distant hamlet]

handling marketplace, vip subscriptions, creating values 💔

and some cryptic expire logic in the middle of the process reciept function

[edgy venture]

this is the 67th version of the script btw

i could never get it working and i tried different methods people told me and this is one of them

[distant hamlet]

mfs be committing after every minute

[distant hamlet]

ig if its working its good

[edgy venture]

if its working dont touch it

[distant hamlet]

but in the long road ur gonna hit the 97th rewrite

[velvet vapor]

maybe I didint get what you are doing but why you can’t simply task.spawn a loop and do your step whatever times you want

[midnight dock]

yo

its causse i put a waitforchild function for something that wasnt there

so it gave me a infinite yeild

so it waited infinity

[loud mist]

[safe lagoon]

those who use pcall inside task.spawn 💀

[muted oracle]

Helpppppoo

Someoneee

[outer dagger]

does anyone else dislike the amount of instance-based apis roblox has been adding? the new audio api, the input action system, and now this video player thing

[muted oracle]

I want to get my server built

[ember matrix]

what is video player-

[shut sorrel]

I think most of it doesn't need to be a instance and needs a proper UI for them but the more the merrier

[outer dagger]

i think most of it could be pure code

[shut sorrel]

Can't even use more than 5 videos in a experience I'm pretty sure I never use videos

[outer dagger]

i hate instance-based since it's impractical for vs code and instance creation is ugly as hell

[shut sorrel]

The audio API is disgusting working with managing all the instances

Gets really messy

Same with the inputs

If they're gonna copy unity input mapping should've just went the UI route

[outer dagger]

wires are disgusting

[shut sorrel]

I think they are trying to keep is consistent with everything else and simple for even babies to learn but it just creates a lot of clutter

[bitter mesa]

ong coding is hard

for my smooth brain

[marsh kelp]

Tbh after thinking about it for a bit, the only reason I found to why promises are better here is:
That when I was coding this I had a rule in mind; a customer shouldn't care about how to leave, his next step, or anything else but what he's trying to do ( E.G. a customer trying to enter the shop shouldn't care or have a leaveStore() in it ).

And that it's a bit more readable imo.

And the only bad thing about using Promises... is using Promises, as in having this script depend on another external module. but that’s not a huge issue, imo (we all use ProfileService/Store after all)
||We can say it's bad to use promises because beginners don't understand them, but idc about beginners reading my code||

-- it's not clear that this function can call start/leaveStore()
task.spawn(function()
    local success,error = pcall(function()

        local res = customerLife[self._step](self)
    end)
end)

--[[================================================================]]

local promise = promiseModule.new()

promise:Then(function()
    self:start()
end
,function()
    self:leaveStore()
end)
-- promise makes it clear :Resolve/:Reject() will be called on the inside
customerLife[self._step](self,promise) 

[frank crow]

can someone help me finish a stamina system?

[marsh kelp]

Read my last msg+ I had a few other problems with doing it normally/in a loop. a few of them were

• Allow the code to error.
• Allow myself to create threads in the code.
• My last msg

[somber vault]

What are you struggling with?

[vocal laurel]

you should probably take this to code help

[frank crow]

i need to finish the stamina bar system

[marsh kelp]

who?

[velvet vapor]

not you

[frank crow]

hes talking to me

[vocal laurel]

@somber vault and @frank crow

[frank crow]

bro who are you

stop talking

[vocal laurel]

I am me

[marsh kelp]

Sad, no one wants to talk to me :(

[velvet vapor]

I want but only if I understand code lol

[velvet vapor]

okey I will have a glance a little bit later, coding myself rn

[vocal laurel]

rar

[marsh kelp]

Ty for making me sadder ||/joke||
It's just a simple code to run each function in customerLife in order
simpler version:

I don't rly want help with the code itself tho... we were just fighting because he called me a piece of noob Promises user and I was defending my self ||/another joke sorry||

local Customer = {}

function new()
    return 
end

function start(self: fullCustomer) -- will start the loop
    self._step = self._step + 1
    print(`Started: {self._step}`)
    
    if self._step > #customerLife then
        leaveStore()
        return
    end

    task.spawn(function()
        local success,error = pcall(function()
            local res = customerLife[self._step](self)    
        end)
    end)
end

function Customer.spawn(self: fullCustomer)
    print("spawn")
    task.spawn(function()
        task.wait(5)
             
        start(self)
    end)

function Customer.enterShop(self: fullCustomer)
    print("enter")
    local humanoid = true
    if not humanoid then 
        leaveStore()

    Customer.spawn,
    Customer.enterShop,
    leaveStore
}

function leaveStore()
    print("left")
end

[craggy ether]

hello guys idk how to script a icehockey stick pls help

[steady plover]

does the strig load itself

string

[deft coral]

?

[velvet vapor]

okey it seems like I understood the code and what other guy suggested but I don’t understand “customer shouldn’t care how to leave” and etc like you still do it in your code with promises, allow the code to error also is not a problem as wittummm pointed

[deft coral]

Animation swing and an impulse force (BasePart:ApplyImpulse()) or a physics constraint

[velvet vapor]

and I understand that you don’t really need help, I was just interested in what’s going on

[gentle trench]

I need help, can someone come dm ill explain

[deft coral]

No one gonna steal ur code

[velvet vapor]

I will

and after I will send it to everybody

[marsh kelp]

I don’t understand “customer shouldn’t care how to leave”
I don't wan't to call specific functions from inside the code (customerLife) to make every function responsible for one thing only... making it reject a promise isn't calling a function but more of reporting its results ( something similar to return true/false/data )

This had a name in coding design... but I don't remember its name.

and I understand that you don’t really need help, I was just interested in what’s going on
Aha, many people are quick to assume there's a problem with a code when they someone posting colored code... so I just wanted to make sure

[languid osprey]

Wsp

[wet wharf]

where is hao

[velvet vapor]

you can then fire a signal with the same idea I guess

[marsh kelp]

But I'll have to make 2 signals ( and clear one if one if them fired ), and it doesn't handle errors right?

use the /post command
to post in #scripter-hiring / or look in #scripter-hirable

[languid osprey]

Oh okay !

[dapper karma]

@languid osprey Hello, please do not attempt to hire outside of marketplace! This counts as channel misuse 💔

[hazy ice]

Is that a module script

or normal script

[marsh kelp]

normal, but why are you asking?

[hazy ice]

so I can help

[marsh kelp]

I don't rly want help with the code itself tho... we were just fighting because he called me a piece of noob Promises user and I was defending my self /another joke sorry

[hazy ice]

Oh

[grizzled nexus]

yo guys whats wrong with this script? its supposed to give me the tool to my username only

local ServerStorage = game:GetService("ServerStorage")

local toolName = "Blood Pickaxe"
local allowedUsername = "zirnoux"

Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(player)
    if player.Name == allowedUsername then
        local toolFolder = ServerStorage:FindFirstChild("Tools")
        if toolFolder then
            local tool = toolFolder:FindFirstChild(toolName)
            if tool then
                tool:Clone().Parent = player.Backpack
            end
        end
    end
end)

[bronze path]

make sure the script is parented to a container it can run in

• make sure / confirm that you have an object named "Tools" directly under server storage
• confirm that the tool is exactly named Blood Pickaxe

when i say confirm, also show a screenshot

[grizzled nexus]

its in serverscriptstorage, theres a tool in server storage, the tool is named blood pickaxe indeed

[bronze path]

yea but just for our own sanity (as ive helped people who said they placed things corrrectly and then later showed they didnt) show pictures

also check the flow of the program by adding prints

and share the output

[grizzled nexus]

alr #media

[bronze path]

oh your perms is not there? you could also dm me if you want

[grizzled nexus]

for sure

[swift tartan]

You are using Players.PlayerAdded. That only fires for players who join after the script runs.

If this script is in ServerScriptService, it will work for new players, but it will not give the tool to someone already in the server when the server starts.

[bronze path]

that problem shouldnt happen given the script is barebones just a player added connection, and no yielding is happening above the connection n i assume theyre doing a playtest

but
we can never be too sure so i suppose you can recommend em to do the existing players loop fix

[swift tartan]

@grizzled nexuslocal Players = game:GetService("Players")
local ServerStorage = game:GetService("ServerStorage")

local toolName = "Crimson Shovel"
local allowedUser = "zirnoux"

local function giveTool(player)
if player.Name == allowedUser then
local tools = ServerStorage:FindFirstChild("Tools")
if tools then
local tool = tools:FindFirstChild(toolName)
if tool then
tool:Clone().Parent = player.Backpack
end
end
end
end

for _, p in ipairs(Players:GetPlayers()) do
giveTool(p)
end

Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(giveTool)

[grizzled nexus]

ooh lemme try rq

[grizzled nexus]

doesnt work

[swift tartan]

hmm

where did u place the script

because the script must be in sss

[grizzled nexus]

ye thats where i placed it

[snow bramble]

Sorta not coding but, I have streaming enabled, and I am wondering why the parts in the distance aren't loading out when they are literally 60k studs away

[swift tartan]

There alsomust be a folder called Tools in ServerStorage

[grizzled nexus]

yeah its in tools in sss

[wet wharf]

i need a scripter for a steal a brainrot style game, any decent scripters in chat rn?

[swift tartan]

you need to put it in server storage

[swift tartan]

right here

[wet wharf]

send me your portfolio

[swift tartan]

it's in my bio

The tool itself must be named exactly Crimson Shovel

[somber vault]

guys

[wet wharf]

could just string match to closest fitting name

but ghost i cannot view your portfolio there is nothing appearing @swift tartan

[somber vault]

how do i refer when the HRP is touching a part in specific????? (lets name it TRIGGER)

[wet wharf]

please dm me with your work

[wet wharf]

part.Touched

[swift tartan]

dms

[wet wharf]

okay thanks ghost

[somber vault]

can u give me an example on how to apply that? im new to scripting

local Player = game:GetService("Players").LocalPlayer
local Character = Player.Character
local RootPart = Character:WaitForChild("HumanoidRootPart")

[swift tartan]

then change the name in the script to blood pickaxe

[wet wharf]

local part = --path for part

part.Touched:Connect(function(hit)
    local hrp = game:WaitForChild("Players").LocalPlayer.Character.HumanoidRootPart 
    
    if hrp then
              -- function to execute here type shit
    end
end)

[somber vault]

thx

lemme test it

[bronze path]

the issue seems to be fixed when the tool is added after the character spawns in

just thought you might wanna know

also remember to use the marketplace for this kinda stuff

[swift tartan]

mb

[dense rapids]

quick question, what’s a good way to detect collision for a modular car

[somber vault]

i modified it and didnt work

[dense rapids]

I’m not sure if it’s a good idea to give each part .touched

[somber vault]

local LocalPlayer = game:GetService("Players").LocalPlayer
local Character = LocalPlayer.Character
local RootPart = Character:WaitForChild("HumanoidRootPart")
local TRIGGER = script.Parent

    TRIGGER.Touched:Connect(function(hit)
        local RootPart = game:GetService("Players").LocalPlayer.Character.HumanoidRootPart

        if RootPart then
            game.Lighting.Brightness = 1
        end
end)

why didnt it work @wet wharf

[swift tartan]

`local Players = game:GetService("Players")
local LocalPlayer = Players.LocalPlayer
local TRIGGER = script.Parent

local character = LocalPlayer.Character or LocalPlayer.CharacterAdded:Wait()
local humanoidRoot = character:WaitForChild("HumanoidRootPart")

TRIGGER.Touched:Connect(function(hit)
if hit:IsDescendantOf(character) then

    game.Lighting.Brightness = 1
end

end)

[crimson portal]

Check streaming enabled properties

[somber vault]

thx

[swift tartan]

no problem

[snow raft]

@pearl inlet can you cut me some slack bro

my most advanced code is modular code the only code i have that goes over 200 lines is just remote event handling or data storage

@pearl inlet if i record a video going over the code and how it works can you just accept that i would rather do that than add more comments

how MANY more comments do i NEED MAN

I literally add types to my code and create types for classes

and comment for every function and method and member of the classes

what more is needed of me

im gonna lose my mind

can i just add a big note at the top of the program explaining everything instead of going through and commenting more

i swear you want me to have more comments than code

[bronze path]

@snow raft I’m not an application reader, but if you have a problem with an application, make a ticket and select the relevant option or use #staff-help
Pinging someone like this won’t help

You can still ask for coding advice here tho, but just remember that

[safe lagoon]

disrespectful use of ecs

[snow raft]

n

nah its not a problem

its not his fault

its the dumb rules hes just doing what is expected of him

im just complaining to complain i dont really care

im not even looking for work rn 😭

[unreal merlin]

lmk if anyone needs help with coding

[idle musk]

this isnt luau role worthy

[snow raft]

This is a new account, my main one was deleted and compromised (the staff are aware of this I do not have 2 accounts in this server)

I had event winner and luau programmer

I think with a high level of certainty I can say I am worthy of that role

You are talking crazy shit

for someone I never once saw in advanced-code

The actual skill required to get the role in the server is relatively low they just make the requirements for comments and explaining it super tedious

[idle musk]

the code u just showed sucks though

[snow raft]

what sucks about it

give me criticism

cause what i think is happening

[idle musk]

first explain the context of what its used for

[snow raft]

is ur just being a butt head

[snow raft]

module script for creating an object

this is a rough draft version

not everything is finalized

[idle musk]

okay ur using metatables to observe changes

you are also just overengineering with metatables, you shouldn't be using them in this way

in the first snippet you sent it also looks like you're binding the lifecycle of a character model to an entity

which I assume is some enemy / npc

and then you are destroying the enemy object

after the model gets destroyed

when it should be the inverse

[snow raft]

overusing?

I wanted it to work a specific way

and it works that specific way

[idle musk]

okay but it's not necessarily a good way

[snow raft]

it makes my life easier

instead of typing entity.states.running = true

i can just write entity.running = true

or entity.states.running

and have signals for everything

[idle musk]

you are intentionally obfuscating your own code though

if i wa working on a project and saw that

id tap out right there

im ngl

[snow raft]

its very

VERY easy to edit

which is the point

you dont even have to look at that code to change shit all you have to do is update values in this

[idle musk]

u are over engineering

and obfuscating your own code

and bloating it with indirection and complexity

[snow raft]

nah

i just wanted it to have a feature

and i made it have that feature

i wasnt doing it just to do it

It acts exactly the same way a roblox type does

and plus the luau role isnt even hard to get

I got it cause I made a script that rendered a ship sail by just putting parts along the arc of a semi-circle 😭

[idle musk]

they made it more difficult to get

[vague spire]

who can teach how to script?

[real hemlock]

@snow raft its quite sloppy

imo and spoonfed

[austere rover]

print("hello world)

[vague spire]

lmao

[real hemlock]

trying to make things that dont need to be complicated, complicated is stupid

just saying

[vague spire]

im talking about a whole ahh game

[real hemlock]

We have tutors over in #tutors

[snow raft]

what is sloppy about it

[real hemlock]

or devforum, youtube and #1278154978598326406 is free

[snow raft]

everything is very organized

and works exactly as intended

maybe you disagree with my methods but its efficient and does what i want it to

[austere rover]

depends on what the game is, back end scripting is rly hard

[snow raft]

you know whats crazy ive also never seen you in advanced code

[real hemlock]

I can agree with it doing what you want it to do, not relevant to overengineering with metatables.

[snow raft]

how is it over engineering?

my idea when writing it was to make it a class that anyone could use so I could publish it for free

so making it as similar to a roblox type as possible was my goal

it acts pretty much the same

[real hemlock]

Why does this have benefits over other ways of doing it

is my first question

it seems pretty overengineered from a general sense

[snow raft]

why does it need benefits i just wanted to do it that way

[real hemlock]

Because if your submitting it for AR Review, it should serve a better purpose then a more condensed and simple way

[snow raft]

the only thing u can even say is that its overengineered

which part about the metatables is overengineered

[vague spire]

i have a game idea but no scripters or map designer. need teammates lol

[snow raft]

you have given me 0 criticism but keep calling it sloppy and overengineered

these fucking third rates get the role never talk in advanced code then talk shit

[real hemlock]

I've told you my overview of it, I agree if you want it to work that way, cool.

[snow raft]

its crazy

[austere rover]

its not hard to come up with a idea for a game lol

[real hemlock]

eh id say i know what im doing personally

as a full time dev for game studio

[vague spire]

this one is really good trust

[real hemlock]

but then again you may well also know what ur doing

I go back to my previous question, why does it need to be this way over a simpler approach without the 'because i wanted to'

im genuinely curious

[snow raft]

i have asked what makes you think that

so i can have feedback

all you say is its sloppy and overengineered

you dont have an overview you have an ego

god damnit you people piss me off

[real hemlock]

If you get so annoyed by it, go elsewhere.

[snow raft]

i am lazy

i dont want to write out

entity.states.value

i just want to write entity.value

[real hemlock]

Fair enough then

[snow raft]

without it being an unorganized mess

[real hemlock]

Personally for me I wouldn't do it that way on the basis of icba and would prefer to write it out

but its a personal opinion

[snow raft]

so i divided it into different tables with methods slightly different for each type of value, state, data, etc

[real hemlock]

so is urs

[snow raft]

then condenced it all into one metatable with the class methods that redirects __newindex and --index to those tables

that is why

[real hemlock]

Makes sense if it fits your use case i guess

[steady warren]

HelloWorld("print")

[snow raft]

notavirus.tor

[balmy zenith]

pray that i never run into this code

only metatable mess

[snow raft]

just because you are scared of metatable

doesnt mean it isnt organized and hard to read

[balmy zenith]

it literally is not organized

[snow raft]

what about it isnt

[balmy zenith]

someone reading this code would have to read all this metatable mess to even get what the object is trying to do

and oh if they make a mistake at all, its all fucked

[snow raft]

the entire point of that function is to set up the metatables

everything else is done in another function

😭

[balmy zenith]

which a person would need to read to edit this class

to be able to understand and comprehend what the class does

[snow raft]

you mean

[marsh kelp]

I like how you use this on everyone, like it's some kind of a lifelong achievement

[snow raft]

i use it on people i never have seen in that chat

i saw you a lot so i wouldnt say it to you

[marsh kelp]

Let me guess, you've never seen me in advanced-code?

[balmy zenith]

ion got the role

[snow raft]

ive only said it to people who cant form any criticism

they call my code shit i ask what makes them think that then they leave the chat

[balmy zenith]

you cant even see if you dont got the role so how do you see it

[snow raft]

just cause i do stuff a different way than them

anyway

@balmy zenith you mean the clearly divided section of the metatable constructor that is all class related methods

[balmy zenith]

and..? a person would need to read the metatable if they want to edit your code

[snow raft]

so the portion you are talking about is around

[balmy zenith]

no im talking about the class as a whole

[snow raft]

40 lines of code and it accomplishes everything i set it out to do

its 40 lines of code bro

including the __eq and tostring stuff

[marsh kelp]

Tbh we should learn to accept this

@balmy zenith and around 27 other ppl called my code shit, but i didnt get mad or add them to my hit list

[radiant mica]

Yo I need a scripter

[balmy zenith]

doesnt matter how short the code it, it can still be very complex

[snow raft]

i have an ego

[balmy zenith]

legit you either walk away or learn something

[snow raft]

when i get negative feedback (not criticism) by someone with less experience than me

i get very upset

[balmy zenith]

then dont because having an ego is not a good way to learn

[snow raft]

like if someone pointed out something

[balmy zenith]

oh so this isnt criticism, i wonder whay is considered criticism for you

[snow raft]

like a mistake i made or something i could do differently

and said my code was bad because of that

[balmy zenith]

because i havent even been negative towards you, only your code

[snow raft]

id take that on my shoulder thats no big deal

[balmy zenith]

and this is very much something you could do differently

[snow raft]

what have you pointed out

that i can do differently to accomplish the same goal

in a better way

[balmy zenith]

read above what i pointed out..

[snow raft]

they say a debutant values complexity and a master values simplicity

[marsh kelp]

True, and for solo devs that's is our lifeline ( of course you shouldn't accept any/everything but at least think about it for a bit )

[snow raft]

but that is not always the case

[balmy zenith]

i dont see how doing something more complex ie better but sure ig

[snow raft]

sometimes you need a small complex portion to concisely and efficiently accomplish what you want

[faint smelt]

dogshit.

[marsh kelp]

If you want to explain something to someone how would you explain it?

[balmy zenith]

but in this case there is no need, only your want

it wouldnt be much more to make this code much more simple and straightforward to read

[snow raft]

I wanted to create a class with clearly divided sections for members (states, values, etc) that can easily be editted, but I wanted them all condensed into one table without it being disorganized if I wanted to reset all values or something like that

to accomplish that i divided the sections into slightly different metatables with different behavior then made the final one connect them all

[slim pivot]

do any of yall wanna make a parkour game

[balmy zenith]

your explanation is already complex

[snow raft]

ok so you are just ragebaiting

i have wasted my time

[balmy zenith]

i dont see how i am ragebaiting but sure

[snow raft]

I also because I was doing that took advantage of __newindex to signal events

contrary to what you all think __newindex was not the purpose of making it

[balmy zenith]

horrid way because you need a proxy

[marsh kelp]

You should create the code for the AR and other people in mind not for yourself and your need and the computer

Sorry but i didnt understand your code even with comments, same goes for @balmy zenith , a few other ppl, and the AR

[snow raft]

i couldve just condensed it all into one metatable

but that wouldve been unreadable

[snow raft]

my code is too mdular

[balmy zenith]

you inherently need a proxy table to detect changes with newindex

[snow raft]

its the only thing over 200 lines in my entire current project

[faint smelt]

have u noticed how, thus far, everyone has told you your code Sucks Ass

perhaps it's not ragebait

Just Sayin

[spice summit]

01100010 01101111 01101111

[snow raft]

i am asking for criticism

I have much more readable and commented code

but its under 200 lines

[balmy zenith]

and this is the criticism you got

[snow raft]

take this for example

my custom event class

i made this code a few years ago

i just noticed it said high operator instead of high order 😭

[balmy zenith]

functions directly inside tables are quite bad looking

[spice summit]

seems... a little... artificial....

[snow raft]

what do you mean by that

like this?

[balmy zenith]

new = function() directly in the table definition

[green reef]

It's just ugly and inconsistant

[balmy zenith]

and also that

[snow raft]

thats valid criticism thank you

I did it that way out of habit cause thats how I always do classes

[green reef]

Np, didn't mean it in a mean way it just doesn't make sense to have one singular function in the table but the rest outside

[snow raft]

you are right though it is ugly

im still gonna do it that way though

[snow raft]

i got into the habit

of commenting like that

because I got rejected 8 times on my old account because my comments were lackluster

[spice summit]

yandere incident

[snow raft]

ok say what you will but i do not have functions with 200 if conditions in them 😭

[spice summit]

the only reason i say this is phonetically the comments aren't consistent

[snow raft]

what

oh thats cause

[spice summit]

the way you type...

[snow raft]

i have made this script and editted it many times over the years

i used to put comments in all caps

then i did all lowercase

it really just depends on my vibe that day

i dont have a consistent way of doing comments

[spice summit]

idk abt that but not my place, good thing is you're learning

[tame ibex]

Why bro thought this good Ifea

Idea

[snow raft]

idk i was still a fledgeling then

(i thought it was cool)

[spice summit]

to be fair everyone had bonehead ideas when they started out

[snow raft]

i started out like 6 years ago now

i was just being stupid

[spice summit]

6 years and no skill role...

rough

[snow raft]

i made this account like

3 weeks ago now

my old account (which has been removed from this server by staff cause I notified them of this account)

had event winner and luau programmer

[marsh kelp]

Is is your lines per script too low?

[foggy gazelle]

not everyone cares about it

[snow raft]

yea

thats it currently

[solid dawn]

бонус

[snow raft]

in the entire game the entity module is the only script so far

that goes over 200 lines

[spice summit]

ik, argo why i dont have it, like many others here lol

does give u perks tho

[marsh kelp]

Ahm... I wanted to ask why*

[snow raft]

I dont like putting everything into one module it makes it tedious to edit

[spice summit]

like the "Advanced Code" chat room...

[snow raft]

there are only rare cases like entity where it warrants it

[foggy gazelle]

maybe one day i'll apply for that

[spice summit]

pretty sure its dead af lol

but it does change ur name color

so thats neat

[foggy gazelle]

only for this

uint16_t

just do long char

[spice summit]

yes...

[snow raft]

or double char

👍

[spice summit]

its not broken big dog

[snow raft]

nah just use double double double double boolean

[snow raft]

i really dont get why you guys dont like the way i set up my entity class

cause after adding on AI

you can just do "if (entity.AI) then"

[foggy gazelle]

cuz it's just ugly

[spice summit]

fr

[snow raft]

maybe my style of code is just ugly

[foggy gazelle]

just declare the costructor outside that table

[snow raft]

but its my style

[snow raft]

..?

it is

it works the exact same way a constructor would work in another language

it creates an empty object then takes parameters to update it

[marsh kelp]

You have one function per module?... Know i know why is your lines/script is low

[snow raft]

no

I will add more to the module as necessary

this is just an in dev project i have open right now

[strange kiln]

whqat does os.clock do?

[snow raft]

before anyone says it I changed it

[iron kraken]

gets time on server/client that it is called on

[snow raft]

when you turn on your pc

[hollow sinew]

in pretty sure that it returns the amount of seconds from unix epoch

[snow raft]

there is a number saved that is added onto every time your cpu's clock ticks

[iron kraken]

thats os.time() i think

[hollow sinew]

guys what counts as an intermediate scripter

[snow raft]

os.time() returns time in seconds from epoch

[strange kiln]

effoc

[snow raft]

os.clock returns time (down to nanosecond) since the pc turned on

[strange kiln]

thanks for the explanation though

[foggy gazelle]

why should u use that tho

[snow raft]

cause

you can add onto a timer and do a bunch of math

or just compare the time to a saved value

[foggy gazelle]

isn't it better os.time

[snow raft]

thats time in seconds

if you want fractions of a second

os.clock is better

[iron kraken]

u want os.time for things that u want to track over a long time like a daily reward system

[foggy gazelle]

ohh ye

[snow raft]

like for example if you wanted to time how long its been since you called a function

[potent igloo]

Better to use os.clock

[snow raft]

local last = os.clock();
local function a()
  local now = os.clock();
  print(now-last);
  last = now;
end

[potent igloo]

Its in the documentation that os.clock is better for benchmarking i think

[foggy gazelle]

he's talking about that indeed

[potent igloo]

Oh mb

Thought he was asking a question

[snow raft]

@marsh kelp there is no difference between someone like this and the people earlier to me

[tight hill]

why not tick()

[hoary cedar]

Deprecated

[proper veldt]

Is OOP the hardest part of learning how to code in luau?

[spice summit]

they be deprecating anything istg...

pivit to is just...

[snow raft]

i would say bit manipulation is the one of the hardest things ive learned

that and assembly

so if you are looking for a challenge try them

or go to leetcode and try some problems there

[faint smelt]

what

[faint smelt]

what

holy larpsesh

[balmy zenith]

what

[twin roost]

how much would you all charge for a gun system?

trying to hone my budget

[balmy zenith]

that would learning programming cuz oop or bit manipulation etc is not limited to luau

[snow raft]

what features

do you want it to have

first person or third

ill give you my price and you can budget off that

[foggy gazelle]

1 buck

[twin roost]

No lock to first or third person; it would just need to be simple camera wise

basics I guess

reload, ammo count (just the clip, idgaf about reserves)

[idle musk]

definitely not

oop is a basic concept

[snow raft]

oop is intermediate

if you are looking to learn you should start with functions and learning types

[idle musk]

not really

oop is a basic programming concept

[snow raft]

not for lua

[idle musk]

if you learn any language you will probably be learniing about object oriented programming pretty early

[slender steeple]

oop is basically creating an "object" within the code right?

[snow raft]

you have to have a pretty sound structure to learn oop in luau

[snow raft]

You know how like

you have parts and they have position

and all their values

[slender steeple]

yea

[idle musk]

id say intermediate luau is the type system

[snow raft]

and their methods

its the same thing

you just made classes like that

[idle musk]

id say learning the type system is generally the most challenging part of luau

[foggy gazelle]

what's advanced luau

[idle musk]

some parts of the type system I guess

[slender steeple]

It's honestly hard to define what's "advanced" considering people can learn stuff easier compared to others.

[snow raft]

local myclass = setmetatable({
  text = "hi",
}, {
  print = function(self)
    print(self.text);
  end,
});

myclass:print();

[random nebula]

Asm is not hard

[foggy gazelle]

like

[idle musk]

luau is a pretty easy language to learn

but the type system is a little bit complex

[slender steeple]

easy and basic

[snow raft]

its hard to learn but if you already understand how to program once youlearn the syntax its not as hard

its more challenging and tedious than other languages though

[idle musk]

a lot of things you need to reverse engineer about the type system

since the docs are really lacking

also id say the type system is still very incomplete

[balmy zenith]

no?

theres plenty of docs on types

[idle musk]

its definitely not enough to learn everything

or really how they work

[balmy zenith]

well docs is never enough for you to master anything

[idle musk]

well yeah but they dont really go in depth about the type system

its only like 15 pages

[marsh kelp]

There's ? I never found this types docs

Ty to the devforum and people asking about types

[balmy zenith]

did you take a look at luau website?

[idle musk]

for the entire

type system

[balmy zenith]

its like 95% complete except some outlier cases

[random nebula]

Vruh what’s difficult about it

You learn it in highschool

[weak tundra]

does anyone know of a plugin that stores modules and stuff to be inserted across different places?

[balmy zenith]

https://luau.org/typecheck

[balmy zenith]

called the toolbox

[proper veldt]

Is the second param correct?

[foggy gazelle]

you learn the basics

[random nebula]

You learn how it works

[proper veldt]

i've only seen ppl use the first param alone

[weak tundra]

no i mean like for pre existing hierarchies so i can quickly setup folders and have the modules automatically added

[marsh kelp]

Bad docs

[random nebula]

Op codes, registers, addressing modes, von Neumann

That’s basically all you need

[velvet vapor]

what? why are they bad

[foggy gazelle]

i don't think they teach you how to make roller coaster tycoon in assembly

[proper veldt]

help someone

[random nebula]

They teach you enough to simulate it on paper

[idle musk]

sango is a yapper

[slender steeple]

Which basics?
If it's even programming-related, then maths is the closest I got, since programming/coding is only taught on courses or internet around here.

[idle musk]

ignore him

[random nebula]

Which is enough to learn any asm

[foggy gazelle]

the ones sango said

[marsh kelp]

Only the types docs... Idk why but I've never found it useful

[slender steeple]

Yeah nothing like that is taught here.

Almost everything I know was self-taught

that includes English and Coding

[foggy gazelle]

btw you're a masochist if you make something in assembly

[random nebula]

You can teach urself basically everything in cs

[random nebula]

I don’t write much assembly at all but I read a lot of it

[idle musk]

assembly is pretty useless

[random nebula]

But there are a few things you can only do in assembly and not in any high level language

[foggy gazelle]

ye but with almost everything tbh not only in cs

[balmy zenith]

how

[random nebula]

Make a context switch routine without asm

[balmy zenith]

its useful for knowing types

[idle musk]

yeah because im definitely gonna need to make that

[idle musk]

okay but u dont gain indepth knowledge

of types

you still need to reverse engineer

[snow raft]

what

[balmy zenith]

like what? the docs go into all features i think

[random nebula]

You said it was useless

[snow raft]

i wouldnt know in my highschool programming class the professor just let me do my own thing i didnt even have to do the course

[random nebula]

My hs taught us asm and python

[snow raft]

well if you have someone teaching it to you then its probably easier

i was going in raw x86asm

[foggy gazelle]

we only did asm c c++ and java

[slender steeple]

Guidance is only useful when you're stuck somewhere.

[snow raft]

no?

[marsh kelp]

Maybe i just have a different way of learning but I only learned types from people explaining them and copying their code and changing it

[random nebula]

You can teach urself pretty easily

[slender steeple]

Exactly

[snow raft]

having feedback from colleagues or people better than you is a very important part of learning

[slender steeple]

Eh nah

[foggy gazelle]

it's harder but not impossible to learn alone

[balmy zenith]

docs just explains all the features, maybe you lacked basic understanding of types itself so you had to learn other ways?

[random nebula]

You need to teach urself how to self learn first

[foggy gazelle]

at least for me

[slender steeple]

But learning alone teaches you how to learn by yourself, which consenquentially makes it all easier.

[random nebula]

I taught myself computer architecture and I found it pretty easy

[foggy gazelle]

tbh learning something will always be faster if someone tells you where you're going wrong

[idle musk]

u gotta stop bro

[marsh kelp]

Oh. Yea maybe that's it. ( kinda new idea to me )

I got my basics from c#, and everything in there is already typed.

[slender steeple]

This is the same reason I consider school boring, I don't like people talking like birds trying to teach me something.

[random nebula]

Stop what

[marsh kelp]

Let the cat have his fun/chat

[slender steeple]

Faster, but that also makes you more dependant on others' help.

[idle musk]

ur a programmer stereotype @random nebula

and not a good one

[random nebula]

?

[snow raft]

people will spend

2 years learning something then be like

"yeah that was pretty easy to learn"

[slender steeple]

Yeah then go learn stuff by yourself and you will see that it will be harder.

[marsh kelp]

But isn't everyone's learning speed different anyway?

[foggy gazelle]

he probably spent some time too

[slender steeple]

Yes, but depending on others does no good unless it's heavily needed.

[random nebula]

There’s a billion really good resources online

[slender steeple]

Like learning how to make rice.

[random nebula]

If it’s taking u that long it’s a skill issue

[slender steeple]

Exactly

[snow raft]

i spent probably a month learning bit manipulation and assembly

it was pretty hard

but in the end i ended up making a bitset class more optimized than the c++ standard one

so alls well that ends well

[foggy gazelle]

bragger final boss

[slender steeple]

Now I'll go play smt out of boredom, cya'll another time.

[random nebula]

How r u struggling to learn in 2025

Just boot up some Indian guy tutorial

[snow raft]

being good at programming isnt even a flex

[random nebula]

Not that hard jit

[slender steeple]

Blame the current generation.

[snow raft]

in 4 years ill be able to ask chat gpt to write something 100x better than what i can do today

computer science is doomed

its just a hobby now

[foggy gazelle]

you still need your time to fully understand something

[random nebula]

If that’s true then ur code is dogshit

[snow raft]

dude last year chat gpt couldnt code for shit

[random nebula]

Easiest way to do that is to apply ur knowledge

[snow raft]

this year chat gpt can make an adoble premier clone in 11 seconds

with 0 bugs

and if it has bugs it can bug fix itself

what will it be next year?

[random nebula]

ChatGPT still can’t make a python program without bugs fym

[foggy gazelle]

yes and it takes time to apply your knowledge

[snow raft]

the year afteR?

[idle musk]

no it didn't LOL

[snow raft]

thinking AI wont be overtaking the computer science industry, among many others, is short sighted and foolish

[snow raft]

yes it did

let me find the video

[random nebula]

It’s not if you know how ai works lmao

It will take over junior devs jobs maybe

[idle musk]

you are a fool if you believe AI will exponentially get better and also gain human intelligence logic and reasoning

[random nebula]

Normal programmers are fine

[foggy gazelle]

ye like that guy who shown "chat gpt made windows 11 in 10 seconds"

and it's just a fucking gui in html

[marsh kelp]

Sad

[snow raft]

i dont think it will gain reasoning or logic or anything like that

it will just get ridiculously good at its task

which is programming

[idle musk]

there are reasons why AI will scale poorly now

[snow raft]

hey man this is just my take

[idle musk]

first of all, almost all of the training data has been exhausted

[snow raft]

if it slows down ill be wrong and will have an aerospace engineering degree instead of a computer science degree

[idle musk]

and a large majority of new code that is uploaded to the internet

is AI code

and there is no reliable way to filter it

and also you cant just scale compute

and get better models

[snow raft]

lets see if it works when its done

ok it didnt work cause it did it in python and didnt have tkinter installed

im making it do it in html / js now

[slender steeple]

just install tkinter via pip

[snow raft]

dont feel like it

[slender steeple]

lazy bones

[icy dew]

IMO an engineering degree also wouldn't be useful in your scenario. Your scenario implies that the AI we've created is good enough at programming to completely replace computer scientists. I would argue that if it really was good enough, it would also be able to produce something to replace Engineers.

I don't think we'll get to that point soon though and I don't consider LLMs to be intelligent.

[snow raft]

everything works 0 bugs

11 seconds

probably less i wasnt even checking

[snow raft]

engineering has longer

CS can be done online but if you want to automize engineering

you need infrastructure and products to do it

[icy dew]

Yeah but that's a completely useless program

[snow raft]

specialist to the task or a generalist

[slender steeple]

I guess humanity will be doomed if people become more dependant on others and automated responses.

[snow raft]

yea but

my point is

what was its capability last year

what is it going to be next year

[icy dew]

I agree that it's getting better

[snow raft]

computer science as a career is in danger

and i think its foolish to think otherwise

what happened to carriage services when cars got invented

[marsh kelp]

Doesn't look like a clone to me, only a very basic app that someone will pay to install

#code-discussion message

[snow raft]

i didnt ask for a clone

let me ask it to redesign the ui to fit another app

[marsh kelp]

Why not? You said something prove it

[snow raft]

ok im asking it to do it now

thats my bad

[slender steeple]

Time to see if it will fail at editing its own code.

[icy dew]

Are programmers better at using AI for programming than non-programmers are?

[slender steeple]

to an extent yeah

[snow raft]

yea

[slender steeple]

since they can give more precise prompts

[snow raft]

definitively yea

to get good results with AI you need to know exactly what you are asking for

right now atleast

[marsh kelp]

Yeah, it's pretty stupid that it wants someone to hold it's hand and tell it how to breath

But it's pretty good at the most basic stuff ( like formatting data )

[snow raft]

@marsh kelp

could you do me a favor

[icy dew]

I agree

[snow raft]

search messages from FXDuke in advanced code that contain a link

he sent a video a while back with this topic

that has the photoshop clone

its not perfect but like

[slender steeple]

the slider

[snow raft]

that was in less than 5 seconds

yea its not perfect

but could you do that in 5 seconds

[slender steeple]

no because no human is capable of fighting an ai when it comes to speed

[snow raft]

yea exactly

why do you think games have been so shit recently

cause companies value speed more than quality

[slender steeple]

speed?

nah, it's actually money

[snow raft]

if people valued quality id give the computer science industry another 4 years before its threatened

[snow raft]

speed is money

[slender steeple]

incorrect

[snow raft]

the faster the game gets out, the less they pay devs, the faster they get returns on their investment

they literally offer bonuses to get games out as fast as possible

do you not remember the recent controversy where the subnautica devs got fired cause they met bonus deadlines

and they didnt wanna pay them

[slender steeple]

gaming industry itself is condemned considering companies like Nintendo does what they do.

everything will come to an end eventually, just there is no prediction on when.

[snow raft]

i charge hourly so it just might be my experience being rushed

[marsh kelp]

I wasted my time... That's still a basic drawing app, not a photoshop clone

https://youtu.be/IrWtw9ehB2g?si=7ZaTUAIq89KFdZ6Y

[snow raft]

oh i mustve misremembered

my mistake its been a minute since i saw it

[snow raft]

that is still pretty crazy though

i remember laughing at people saying ai would take over cs back in like 2022

i only am getting more reasons to believe that notion

as time passes

[marsh kelp]

I don't disagree that ai is good at a basic level... But not at anything else ( especially debugging )

[snow raft]

yea

i also wish ai wasnt butt kissers

if i ask for feedback on something it just says its the best idea ever even if i purposefully give it bad code

im just saying

in 4 years

there is a solid chance ai takes over the junior level positions

if you are studying cs now you wont have any experience when you graduate and nobody will be hiring

[marsh kelp]

True.
Some may even say that it'll rise the bar for becoming a junior, and maybe make it a bit easier to learn

[snow raft]

Im looking forward to AI getting that good

it will accelerate learning for humans once its credible 100% of the time

make tedious online tasks as simple as a prompt

etc

you can spend hours learning a language with it and get really good feedback too

so many benefits to this technology

but at the cost of all jobs that can be done online

without exception

[snow raft]

watch the entire video btw

it made a path tracing renderer

in 10 seconds

[dusky swift]

I want to make a game, but I dont have all the skills necessary. Would anyone be interested in making a passion project with me?

[faint smelt]

No.

[dusky swift]

aw 🙁

[balmy zenith]

if you dont have the skills, why would someone with skills wanna work with you, practically saying youre a burden

[dusky swift]

I said I dont have “all” the skills

[dusky swift]

@balmy zenith

[balmy zenith]

didnt see the all

mb

[dusky swift]

oh lol its alg

i just made an ai that specializes in Luau scripting

i have not tested it tho

[balmy zenith]

still gon be hard to convince someone to work on a passion project tho, unless its their passion too

[dusky swift]

right

[lapis topaz]

Yes but itll ruin a lot of careers

[balmy zenith]

world gotta cope

[dusky swift]

my ai will have infinite propmts

and it will remember chats

[balmy zenith]

go be a bricklayer 🔥

[lapis topaz]

But its like working towards a bad future for yourself is you want to do something with coding

what y'all think

my second ever project created in C#

[snow raft]

you can just do

minutes += math.floor(seconds / 60)
seconds = seconds % 60

[hoary cedar]

The amount of minutes can be determined by dividing the remaining seconds by 60. What's left from this division is the complimentary seconds, which can be calculated using the modulo operator. For example, in Luau:

local seconds = 90

print(string.format("%02d:%02d", seconds // 60, seconds % 60)) --> 01:30

[dawn monolith]

alr

[snow raft]

wait

that was suppoesd to be +=

then just repeat that for hjours

[dawn monolith]

i ain't that good in maths ion understand what u mean lmao

[snow raft]

so

% is like division

[dawn monolith]

alright, thanks

[snow raft]

except it only gives you the remainder

like 6 / 5 is 1.2

6 % 5 is 1

[dawn monolith]

ahh ok ty

[snow raft]

15 % 5 = 0

15 / 5 = 3

[dawn monolith]

yea i see

[snow raft]

6 % 7 = 6

[dawn monolith]

it's a WPF project

a timer

[dawn monolith]

alright thanks ig ill be using this method now

[snow raft]

41 % 69 = 41

Guys does anyone know how games like volleyball legends or blr and or basketball zero handle their ball bouncing

[hasty mesa]

physics equations

kinematics

[static forum]

How would that look in code

?

[real hemlock]

theres lots of resources out there

on those topics

youll need to learn the concepts to begin tho, id reccomend a yt video

[static forum]

Can u send me soemthing to start with

[real hemlock]

or just hire someone who has professional links to those types of things

[sharp gull]

the ball when its off the player? or the ball when its being dribbled

when its dribbled its just a rig but

otherwise uhhhh idk

[real hemlock]

im not an expert on this topic unfortunately so i dont wanna mislead you

[static forum]

No off the player

[real hemlock]

ill leave it to someone else

(i have skills for everything except script rah)

acshaullyy erm mayb i should js learn scripting myself

[faint smelt]

why would you ask in the coding channel

[balmy zenith]

possible if you try

[modern seal]

its intimidating >w<

[balmy zenith]

Less effort.

[balmy zenith]

[balmy zenith]

just start

[lunar current]

Can anyone recommend me a tutorial on how to start coding?

[signal salmon]

Js search on YouTube

[lunar current]

Man they all seem weird
