[tame patio]

because shorter is better for me to read lol

[lean ocean]

💆‍♂️

alright

[tame patio]

yeah im just saying hypothetically again im just trying to learn whats possible

its kinda similar to python icl

[lean ocean]

that must be rough to work with

😢

[lusty barn]

yeah both suck

[tame patio]

bro why does lua have an option to explain your own code to you

[lean ocean]

🤷‍♂️

[tame patio]

use chat gpt to organize ur script ngl

[lusty barn]

do you mean roblox

[lean ocean]

insane

[lusty barn]

can we ban these people already

cantlose and evac

[terse wigeon]

Could someone at least explain the concept please? Im stuck

[lean ocean]

I just realized ur that guy I dmed about my new game

shit flopped ngl

[lusty barn]

modulescripts

[lean ocean]

I was being hopeful that it would reach home recs eventually but I lost hope

[tame patio]

boi all i said is use ai to organize its rlly nice icl

[lusty barn]

dude ur a fkn npc wtf

xd in '25

[lusty barn]

gosh ur cooked omg

[lean ocean]

nah it did but like

[lusty barn]

first of all

[tame patio]

ur a hater 🙏

[lean ocean]

it was like 500 and then it just fell

[lusty barn]

crazy how your code is already organized badly enough

[lean ocean]

500 in a day

[lusty barn]

second

ai organization is shit

ai coding is shit in general

ai is shit

overrated ass tech

[tame patio]

bro im meaning not changing anything just organizing and making fancy lol

[lusty barn]

bubble is popping soon

https://tenor.com/view/cold-bubbld-ice-gif-949969522183935492

ur cooked too

frosty spit it out

All I know is the stats were better than last time I sponsored and last time it got more home recs than now

which is wild

I don't get it

[lusty barn]

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/1324926533164339260/1386954988936237147/togif.gif

please can we just ban them all

[lean ocean]

I can check

give me sdc

[lusty barn]

MAIN FUNCTION 💔

[terse wigeon]

Yeah but how?
Like if I wanted to make 30 pets, would I be supposed to make 30 objects of pets and insert them into an module.index table?

[lean ocean]

sec

[tame patio]

bro is an ai hater 🙏

[lusty barn]

im a you hater

[tame patio]

ai hater

[lusty barn]

store the data in a modulescript table

[tame patio]

welp back to learning

[lusty barn]

unskid urself pls

omg im beggingn

FUCK

https://dizzyco123.github.io/robloxscriptingchallenges

[terse wigeon]

Who do u consider a skid?

[vague phoenix]

does anyone know what this is? apparently i need to understand it to code a working circuit

[lean ocean]

qptr benchmark reached like 1.56 and 50th percentile was 1.54

[tame patio]

im joking btw emojis and ai organization is garbage

for scripts

[terse wigeon]

Oh, that's useful thanks

[tame patio]

idk when emojis are ever a good thing to use for organization it looks so bad

[lean ocean]

I think one of the thumbnails had like 2.5 qptr

Around there

[iron kraken]

its an algorithm that searches a tree level by level

[lean ocean]

which is almost 90th percentile

I mean it's fine I'm 1/2 for successful games

During the end of the ads

also I still get like 2 ccu but that's nothing

[vague phoenix]

do you know how it does that

[lean ocean]

nah the stats are terrible rn

I assume it's cause

It averages 1 ccu

but they used to be decent

well yea maybe something still happens cause it's not entirely dead

look that spike u see on the left

was the last time I sponsored

and it got way more

and on the right is home recs this time

something has to happen cause no way last time it got like 100x the home recs with way worse stats

algorithm is weird

my friends obby game also started with like 2 ccu and went up to 600

in the span of a couple of weeks

[iron kraken]

u can prob search it up pretty easily but u would have to use a queue

and then add the children fo each node to the queue

and then keep going until the queue is empty

[wraith zinc]

Anybody know why some combat systems are smooth but some are jagged and slow

[rigid tundra]

prob cause the server-side hit detection is off or the animations are weirdly synced

or remote events are too slow

looking for someone to make a game with!

[wise frigate]

What kind of game

[gentle ember]

uhh any game that is likely to go popular

(brainrot types of game.. (im not brainrot just saying)

csn anyone be a nice guy and help me script a game i created and my scripter frend told me that it wont take a long time to script to can anyone help btw the game is trash i started a week ago so i dont think that it will be hard to script

dm me

[summer matrix]

yo

[ruby jackal]

can anyone script my game for a 35 percent share?

[coarse parcel]

Top best and useful things you can use in your scripts: (dont use them)

1- _G: Its a modulescript from the old old times

2- _Version: Version of the lua interpreter (now it says Luau but before it had the number of version, like Lua 5.2, etc)

also the number 3:

why use .Position when you can use the old .P?

and finally, the :Wait()

:Wait() its worse than :wait() because :Wait() is deprecated and :wait() no but both are no longer used in modern scripts

[candid isle]

How’s it going

[kind seal]

is this good code style wise?

[balmy zenith]

wtf

also can do type? instead of type | nil

[kind seal]

[balmy zenith]

whats this attrbiute thing anyway

seems cursed

[kind seal]

oh no i have to do that or roblox screams at me

[kind seal]

its a recreation of oop

[balmy zenith]

oh lord

[kind seal]

indeed

[balmy zenith]

why do people recreate oop

[kind seal]

because i can

and its good experience

ive learned alot about types

[balmy zenith]

[kind seal]

this builder module:

--!strict
--!optimize 2

-- stylua: ignore start

local packages  =  script.Parent
local output    =  require(packages.Output)

export type Builder<M>  =  M & Buildable
export type Buildable   =  {
    build: (any) -> any,
}

-- stylua: ignore end

local exports = {}

exports.new = function<M>(name: string, methods: M & Buildable): Builder<M>
    if typeof(name) ~= 'string' then
        local message = 'attempted to create a builder an invalid name.'
        output.error('Builder.new', message, 3)
    end
    if typeof(methods) ~= 'table' then
        local message: string = 'attempted to create a builder named %q with invalid methods.'
        output.error('Builder.new', string.format(message :: any, name), 3)
    end
    if typeof(methods.build) ~= 'function' then
        local message = 'attempted to create a builder named %q with an invalid build method.'
        output.error('Builder.new', string.format(message :: any, name), 3)
    end

    for index, value in pairs(methods) do
        if string.sub(tostring(index), 1, 1) == '_' then continue end
        if typeof(value) ~= 'function' then
            local message = 'attempted to create a builder named %q with an invalid method %q.'
            output.error('Builder.new', string.format(message :: any, name, tostring(index)), 3)
        end
    end

    methods = table.clone(methods) :: M & Buildable
    return methods
end

return exports

took so long to get the autocompletion right

[balmy zenith]

pairs..

[kind seal]

ye

do i not need it?

[balmy zenith]

why

jusf use gen iter

[kind seal]

gimme an example

like next, methods, 1?

ive never used it before

[balmy zenith]

output.error
holy overhead

[kind seal]

SHUSHASDHUYAW

[balmy zenith]

no like
for k,v in table do

[kind seal]

aight

[kind seal]

TypeError: Cannot call a value of type Buildable & M

for index, value in methods do

[balmy zenith]

ts has insane overhead

[kind seal]

wtff is overheadd

rahhhhh

[balmy zenith]

is buildable & m not a table

[kind seal]

m is a generic type

[balmy zenith]

omg youre skidding

[kind seal]

i swear im not

i just dont know anything

[balmy zenith]

is this new type solver

[kind seal]

no selene

[balmy zenith]

thats the definition of skid

[balmy zenith]

does selene use new type solver

[kind seal]

how am i a skid if i wrote all of this myself

[kind seal]

no

[balmy zenith]

you should use new type solver

its better in general

[kind seal]

roblox studio says it aswell

[balmy zenith]

worse in some cases, but yk

[balmy zenith]

cast it ig idk

you can also just cast it to never

[kind seal]

lovely

methods :: {}

[balmy zenith]

its cuz

luau dont got generic constraints

and M, could be a non table

[kind seal]

thats a bit stupid

if typeof(methods) ~= 'table' then
    local message: string = 'attempted to create a builder named %q with invalid methods.'
    output.error('Builder.new', string.format(message :: any, name), 3)
end

[balmy zenith]

it probably doesnt know it returns

cuz you are using a redirected error..

if you returned or use error, itd probably know

[kind seal]

returning it causes an error idk what

and output.error uses error

[balmy zenith]

does output.error actually error

[kind seal]

exports.error = function(thread: string, message: string, level: number?): never
    local executor, line, fn = debug.info(level or 2, 'sln')
    return error(string.format(exports.ERROR_FORMAT :: any, thread, executor, line, fn or 'unknown', message), 0)
end

[balmy zenith]

why tf you returning an error

[kind seal]

cuz

i can

[balmy zenith]

it wont even return

[kind seal]

yep

[balmy zenith]

id not do so many runtime type checks ngl, you already got the types

[balmy zenith]

also maybe try changing M to like {[K]: V}

[kind seal]

that wont work with autocomplete

which is what i want

[balmy zenith]

k v is generic

[kind seal]

hm?

[balmy zenith]

<K, V>

[kind seal]

oh

well i think its fine

[haughty trail]

if u have to type cast it means your doing something wrong in most cases

exceptions is when u have to hack luau type checker cuz its disgustingly bad

[balmy zenith]

ye

cast is wrong unless its type checker messing up

[blazing leaf]

what is type and self in modules bruh

[balmy zenith]

type?

type is to define a type

self is the table calling function

[blazing leaf]

can u tell simply and elaborate pl

[balmy zenith]

local Table = {}
function Table.doThing(self)
print(self == Table)
end
Table:doThing() -- true

[blazing leaf]

no in modules

like i made a module etf

[balmy zenith]

type MyString = "Cool String" | string

[balmy zenith]

same thing

its the same concept

[blazing leaf]

can u recommend any video or docs?

[balmy zenith]

you shouldnt restrict this concept to modules

[balmy zenith]

mm not really?

[blazing leaf]

huh

so type basically is for OOP?

[balmy zenith]

https://luau.org/typecheck
this is good for types

[balmy zenith]

no, types are types

string boolean number etc

[blazing leaf]

OHH

and self?

self promo in code help is wild

[blazing leaf]

lol

[distant hamlet]

wait holdup

his writing is fire??

[haughty trail]

its not a promotion man

[terse wigeon]

if oop is so bad in ur opinion why is it so popular then?

java doesnt even allow u not to use it

[balmy zenith]

did you even read his thing

[haughty trail]

its the primary focus in universities and training programs and its been dominant programming paradigm for decades

the answer is in this writing work

or blog or whatever call it what u want i guess

[terse wigeon]

no I just asked

Im not trying to prove him wrong

[balmy zenith]

ok

[balmy zenith]

what to use if not oop

[haughty trail]

dod

or just fp

[balmy zenith]

which is?

fp 💀

[haughty trail]

data oriented design

functional programming

[balmy zenith]

ik that

could you show example of dod

it isnt really a paradigm soo

[haughty trail]

data oriented design is considered a programming paradigm

[balmy zenith]

like

Func(data)?

[haughty trail]

im not on my work pc

you could ask ai or just search it up

#define ENTITY_COUNT 1000

typedef struct Position {
  float x,y; 
} Position ;

void move(Position *pos, int count, float move_x, float move_y) {
  for (int i = 0; i < count; ++i) {
    pos[i].x += move_x;
    pos[i].y += move_y;
  }
}

void main(void) {
 Position *pos = malloc(sizeof(Position) * ENTITY_COUNT);
 move(pos, ENTITY_COUNT, 10.f, 10.f);
 free(pos);
 return 0;
}

simple example might just be smthl ike this

[balmy zenith]

yeah so
Func(data)

which imo is less convenient than objects/encapsulation

id use it for simple data structures tho

or like performance critical

[haughty trail]

easy to debug, easy to read, easy to implement, hell more efficient

no inheretance bullshit

[balmy zenith]

elaborate on the first 3?

[quick narwhal]

guys i need help the script that displays gamepasses on the stands it stoped working i don't know why

[haughty trail]

Easy to debug because: data transformations happen in clear predictable ways on data structures, so basically the transparency of it means bugs tend to be localized and easier to trace because there aint no hidden state scattered across multiple encapsulated objects

there is no deep inheritance hierarchies or virtual dispatch

[quick narwhal]

hello can anyone help

[kind seal]

no

[haughty trail]

you can easily just follow the function calls and see exactly which data is being manipulated at which step

[quick narwhal]

why no ???

[kind seal]

idk i just clicked on this channel

[haughty trail]

easy to read should be self explanatory tho if u really want i can elaborate on that

[quick narwhal]

bro

[balmy zenith]

cant you also do that with encapsulation

[kind seal]

i dont really see the point of encapsulation

[haughty trail]

https://youtu.be/C90H3ZueZMM

watch dis guy

[balmy zenith]

k

[kind seal]

did i start this discussion

[haughty trail]

this video will explain it way better and faster

[balmy zenith]

idk, jusy think its natural to subject action instead of action subject

[haughty trail]

cuz its a real world example rather than some discord guy talking

[kind seal]

not a clue what that means mate

[balmy zenith]

dog:Bite(thing)
or
bite(dog, thing)

[kind seal]

i prefer the first one

[balmy zenith]

yeah

thats encapsulation

[kind seal]

ohh i thought encapsulation was like private and protected attributes / methods

[haughty trail]

a key aspect of encapsulation is hiding the internal state of the object from the outside world and only allowing modification or access through defined public methods which is often managed using access modifiers like private, protected, and public

so you are kinda right

[terse wigeon]

it is making variables in private
and then making those method inside public to modify them

[kind seal]

no encapsulation is the thing making it private

you dont have to have a public method to modify / access

[haughty trail]

encapsulation would mean that the Bite method is part of dog object and the internal workings of how the dog bites is hidden behind dis method preventing u from direct external interaction with the data

[balmy zenith]

which imo, makes sense

[kind seal]

the what what

[haughty trail]

encapsulation is the reason u have the ugly ass getters and setters

[distant hamlet]

then wont ecs systems be encapsulation

except the data isnt contained

[haughty trail]

it can indeed be considered that

[terse wigeon]

I honestly never saw any sense using encapsulation during my oop classes in highschool

[haughty trail]

but its different from the traditional OOP encapsulation

[distant hamlet]

what about event driven

[haughty trail]

event driven programming also involves encapsulation

[distant hamlet]

you think pure dod is possible

[haughty trail]

its rather a spectrum than absolute state

i dont believe in any of the 'pure oop' 'pure soa' 'pure dod' stuff

it is possible but who really cares

[distant hamlet]

neither do i

[haughty trail]

what i mean by that is in the end it will have to coexist with other design principles

cuz it has to meet broader software requirements

which sucks but it is what it is

either way i hate oop

fuck oop

[balmy zenith]

what i got from this is the code hes reading is just hsrd af to trace, cuz its using a shit load of classing and inheritence for stupid bullshit, and i agree

but i dont do oop like this soo

[haughty trail]

Remember encapsulation? That thing where you can change implementation without affecting other code? Yeah, that was a lie. In practice it means “I hid > the data so now you have no idea what’s actually happening or who’s fucking with it.”

thats my take on encapsulation

[haughty trail]

yea, that its just some dumb windowing library

[balmy zenith]

whats wrong with hiding data btw

[haughty trail]

now imagine the hell you have to go through in huge code bases

[balmy zenith]

code should be decoupled

you should have a few classes per sustek

not 20

[haughty trail]

alr guys i gtg

have fun and shit cya

[terse wigeon]

guys whats the point of making scopes on datastores?
like
local playerInventoryDataStore = DataStoreService:GetDataStore("PlayerInventory")
local playerCoins = DataStoreService:GetDataStore("PlayerInventory", "PlayerCoins")

[balmy zenith]

its a scope

[terse wigeon]

and? what the difference between using and not using it?

brawldev said its not organized when not using it but I cant see it

[distant hamlet]

honestly my main irk with oop is the abstraction

[balmy zenith]

say
PlayerData
PlayerCurrency
PlayerInventory

etc

[balmy zenith]

i love abstraction

gotta balance it to not overabstract tho

[terse wigeon]

but I cant just get playerInventory datastore and get playercoins from it later on right?

[distant hamlet]

premature abstraction is as evil as premature optimization

[balmy zenith]

probably worse

[balmy zenith]

you should abstract, not premature abstract, frfr

[balmy zenith]

no

its separate

basically its categories

i think it prefixed the scope name into key

so it takes up key space

[terse wigeon]

sorry I may be slow but I dont get it

yeah categories but whats the use of it

[balmy zenith]

just categories or scopes

you can do same by using many datastores

but you need to getasync each datastore so thats not ideal

so if you can fit data into 1 store, do it

[terse wigeon]

ohh

[terse wigeon]

I can get all datastores from 1 get async that way?

[distant hamlet]

the duality of man

[balmy zenith]

it wouldnt be all data stores

[terse wigeon]

well I mean inside a scope, or a directory whatever u name it

[balmy zenith]

yes

if you store data in 1 datastore

so dont go overboard with using too many datastores is the moral

[terse wigeon]

I get it now, thank you dude 👍

[chilly shoal]

hi

[haughty trail]

the second one is sarcastic

its still oop rant

[slender cairn]

why 🦍

[haughty trail]

scroll up

you will find out

[slender cairn]

kinda lazy to read since am outside can you tell why tho in simple terms

because rn am taught oop helps with easier code when managed by diff teams ( could be done via abstraction )

else it just simplifies your code than having structural programming which is redundant for some case

[slender cairn]

what in the helly

[haughty trail]

you wanted simple terms

[slender cairn]

no i mean these points like don't align

some only

[haughty trail]

😔

i elaborated on that points

[slender cairn]

o 😭

[haughty trail]

read when your back at home

or dont idc tbh

[slender cairn]

well it's a diff preferences but imo i do like how oop simplifies code for future cases

[haughty trail]

nice jk

[slender cairn]

you can make it as generic as possible too, with or without oop but for me i had used the same class

for projects i made

[haughty trail]

you dont need oop to create modular code

[slender cairn]

i know

i just like to code in oop tho

[haughty trail]

okay

[slender cairn]

thx for ur time 😎

[haughty trail]

no problem

[distant hamlet]

he is less prejudiced though

[hazy reef]

Fuck oop

[haughty trail]

just talking about different points, the main flaws and stuff was talked about in the first video

on the other script i just did

local action = inputmodule.CreateAction(Enum.KeyCode.One,cooldownvalue.Value)

local connection = action.OnAction:Connect(function()

and it works

I’m working on a menu system where the character doesn’t load until you interact with the menu. The idea is that initially, your character isn’t loaded, and when you click the menu, it triggers the character to load. after clicking the menu, it automatically disappears. I’m stuck on how to prevent the character from loading until the menu is clicked, as when the character isn’t loaded, my gui doesn’t show up. any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated

[static coral]

just toggle Players.CharacterAutoLoads

It seems to squish all the elements smaller. I would send a picture but I dont have perms

[chilly canyon]

[hallow cairn]

Hey everyone, I'm trying to set up a game system where after a sequence of events in game, a player walks on a finish pad. when this event occurs, a cutscene needs to activate, and the player is assigned one of 2 roles. if one role is selected, an animation pre made plays where once finished, they are teleported to one area, and when other role is selected, a different teleport to different area sequence happens. How would I go about setting this up?

[light condor]

fire an event to all clients with their role, don't use :FireAllClients() method in RemoteEvent instead loop through the players and use a remote event to fire to their own client with their rolee

[light condor]

local Players = game:GetService("Players")

function OnFinishPadTouched(Hit)
  local Character: Model -- I'm not typing all this out
  local RemoteEvent: RemoteEvent -- use your own path

  local Player = Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(Character): Player

  -- replace PlayerRole with their role.
  RemoteEvent:FireClient(Player, PlayerRole)
end

if your animation plays once the finish pad is touched you can do this

but if it's once all players touch the pad

I would loop through the players and then send in their role through there

[hallow cairn]

Thank you!

[vernal peak]

guys im using remote function for codes gui

is that bad

[native notch]

#vibecoding #nojob

[vernal peak]

who

[lofty parrot]

Do you know someone named Basil

[light condor]

wdym, as in you're firing remote events for server changes to update UIs? Not really bad but if it's excessive or there are other methods I would recommend just scripting everything with local scripts,, obviously

[vernal peak]

no its js I heard remote functions were for ui stuff cuz their instant and I was using remote events before so im just remaking all my ui script into remote functions

[hallow cairn]

Never heard of em why

[lofty parrot]

Strange coincidence then I suppose

Your name and pfp are awfully similar to a person I know

[hallow cairn]

I need to change the username I set it to thise a while ago and just never changed it, and also for pfp I just watched reze arc as a CSM fan and really liked it

[lofty parrot]

Fair enough 😭

[hallow cairn]

Good luck finding the Basil person if you're trying to find em 🙏🙏

[lofty parrot]

Oh no I'm not 😭

Just thought you knew them

[light condor]

I'm confused, so you're using remote events for like everything?

What is this supposed to mean

RemoteEvents are for communication between the client & server, vice versa

[vernal peak]

no no

nvm i got my answer

[hallow cairn]

Ohhh gotcha 😭 yeah I just make UGC stuff on roblix from time to time and am shootin the shit with a buddy tryna make a game rn lmao

[stiff saddle]

Hey everyone, I’ve got a commission request to script a full gun system in Roblox that works in both third-person and first-person — including shooting, aiming, and switching smoothly between the two views. What would be a fair price to charge in Robux for something like this? Just want to make sure I’m giving a good and reasonable quote. Thanks!

[light condor]

this system is quite complex, does it have proper replication and is it optimized accordingly? I'd like you to go in depth into those parts of your system

[stiff saddle]

ye

like

it is for ww1 game

they want sscope and that all things working

[light condor]

ok but could you show code snippets, not full thing considering it's a commision but just how you create the gun, etc.

[stiff saddle]

screenshare i can show

not script ill show the gun working like you know

[light condor]

ok

[light condor]

dude what is wrong with you

I'm trying to help you figure this shit out and instead of listening to me you're asking AI

cutting me off

and you randomly left the call in the middle of me talking

🤦‍♂️

no wonder the people you were commisioning for dropped you

[stiff saddle]

yeah im confused

he dm me agan and said 2k for pistol and sniper

;-;
is he dumb or smt

he can use the script in other guns and just change some things done

he think im dumb

i will not take this deal

[tame island]

How caan I make a tool that morphs you into a part? but then would it be possible to turn back into ur normal roblox character ? with out respawning

[bronze path]

for the latter, you could disable resetting and maybe just spawn the player as the part anyway if the character somehow manages to die, youd just have to keep track of the players who used the tool for the entire server

[tame island]

its more of a obby game, disabling reset breaks the game

[lusty barn]

Bro

[bronze path]

?

[tame island]

i think i was unclear i meant like u would convert back into your normal roblox character in the same place u turned into a part

[ancient halo]

I'm using a align constraint, and I dont want it to effect the Y rotation. How do I do that?

[light condor]

wait wait wait wait wait, so YOU are buying the system? Nothing is adding up here because in the DMs he is claiming he "can't pay because he's broke" which I told you was a red flag

also you are dumb because he's paying you to do work that supposedly takes you less than 5 minutes and you think he's scamming you

[stiff saddle]

Ik I canceled deal

[light condor]

🤦‍♂️

see this is what I mean

I have to be getting ragebaited right now

is nobody seeing ts

[stiff saddle]

Bro he is a scammer man he told 1.5k final so I canceled

[light condor]

so he hasn't paid you for the initial system?

[bronze path]

best to not accuse anyone of things publicly but rather make a scam report if you havent already

[stiff saddle]

But idk if he really is scammer no proof

[light condor]

ok dude stop talking please for just 1 second and think

they wanted you to make a system for you

they said "we can't pay you until christmas"

you should have just blocked them or closed the DM right then and there

I tried telling you this but you wanted to listen to your AI Chatbot instead of me and you randomly hung up on me while I was trying to help you avoid them

secondly considering you use AI to answer all your questions I can only assume your gun system was made with AI considering you're completely illiterate; English as a first language or not

do me a favor and just stop doing commisions until you gain a consciousness of your own

[stiff saddle]

;-;

Wth u never told me to close

The deal u did not replied

And I used perplexity because I type fast and sometimes I mistyped smt

U can't put a allegation of using ai to make system by ai until u got any solid proof

And ai can't make 600 800 lines of code tbh

[bronze path]

it's kind of bad at handling long scripts

[stiff saddle]

And in ai ik gemini chatgpt and perplexity because I saw ads on that

[stiff saddle]

Ye

So this discussion ends here

[limpid bison]

this is why you learn to script, and use ai as an assistant; ai usually gets weird after 32k characters with modern models

[stiff saddle]

can it even make 1k because chatgpt stops after 200 from my point of veiw idk yours

[limpid bison]

well ai cant always be the greatest for example, it never understand that you cant do a tween animation for frames, only in image buttons and image labels; it has hard time understanding a call to replicated storage is more memory effecient than creating a new instance via code everytime something fires; ai is only good but will never do things rn like " make me a whole game " its more for questions like " help me link link this animation id to a local script that will replace the default run with this run animation for my r6 rig" you need to be descriptive and only do one thing at a time for hyper accuracy; GL if your trying to make module chains like the pros tho

[jovial ember]

can anyone help with a acceleration thing so when it detects ur running u go faster and faster and the max is 50

[dapper night]

bro

[dapper night]

wdym

[dapper night]

ai as an assistant is how I began

[dark imp]

What are the pros of OOP and how different is it from a modular framework?

[dapper night]

makes code safer
prevents accidental modification
easy to reason about
less repetition
easier to expand your game or system
cleaner code
makes large systems easier
able to read
easy for teams
best for big projects
OOP is different from modular programming because OOP creates objects that each have their own data and behavior, like individual humanoids or parts. modular programming just provides reusable functions without creating separate instances. So modular code organizes features, while OOP lets you make many unique objects that act on their own.

get it?

@dark imp

[dark imp]

Yeah I think it makes sense, thanks :)

ur welcome

[night gazelle]

I was wondering, is it even possible to generate a set of vertices that's random but also looking like this island (only the terrain)

specifically the bottom part

cause technically the top part is just a flat polygon

[night gazelle]

You can just generate this by randomly incrementing an angle then setting the vertices within a specific range of radius

How would you guys deal with this or like your approach

[potent igloo]

for most randomly generated terrains you probably wanna study perlin noise

to make the faces of the polygon theres probably a pre made script somewhere

its gonna end up being perfectly placed wedgeparts

[spice crow]

what s leaderstats

i wonder

[night gazelle]

Well I could potentially just make a radial peak using perlin noise and rotate it 180 degrees so it's facing downwards

that could be one way of doing it

but I would still have to stitch the top terrain with the bottom terrain

[lusty barn]

look it up brotosynthesis

[rotund pawn]

I have serious issue: I am unable to cancel Pathfind to checkpoint for NPC to chase player, how can I do it?

Even GPT cant handle this error lol

no 😔 🫷 🔫

[spice crow]

bro

are you sure

im scared

[dapper night]

its nothing harmfuk

[spice crow]

really

I think its harmfuk

[silver marlin]

Made a grid system for conveyors. Would not recommend

[teal wraith]

why not

[silver marlin]

Trying to line everything up with roblox's hitboxes took more time than coding the system

[iron kraken]

ur using raycasts?

[silver marlin]

Kinda

It uses ray casts to determine what the user is looking at then determines if it needs to snap on using cframe of the other part that has already been placed. If it doesnt need to be snapped then it moves on a .25 gird line

[lusty barn]

this should not be physics-based at all

or are you talking about placement

[silver marlin]

Placement is physics based

[iron kraken]

u cud set up a grid of points then raycast from the camera then put the conveyor to the position that is closest to where the raycast hits then handle everything else through a table

[ruby gulch]

🤔

[light condor]

No cap, nobody would help you with that because you’re basically asking them to make the entire system when they can just make it themselves for free.

[glad haven]

is it possible to make a custom rigged npc that just walks and stands still with animations

i was gonna make a post but idk the price

[silver marlin]

Wow I’m stupid

[iron kraken]

ur good champ

[silver marlin]

I might re code that in the future

[tidal shuttle]

anyone know any good videos on how to organize your module scripts

[supple oyster]

Advanced scripter would make their own brainrot game if they wanted

[supple oyster]

Possible

[vagrant mulch]

[fallow gulch]

Does somebody knows what vsc icon pack is this from?

[vagrant mulch]

My head hurt anyone wanna do my work

[vagrant mulch]

do you use vSC because you can keep your files on your computer

Instead of Roblox

Or is there another reason

[fallow gulch]

I use vsc cause i like package management and version control with git

[vagrant mulch]

Ahh

Okie

[somber vault]

Anyone need a scripter your price

does anyone know any fun projects to make in terms of scripting?

[balmy zenith]

disable/increase streaming enabled radius

[sage lagoon]

wheres is that at brother

[balmy zenith]

[sage lagoon]

god bless

[south bridge]

max graphics

[gritty brook]

On god, I did not think that making a cold breath effect via code was gonna be this hard

[balmy zenith]

🤔

[spring atlas]

just add some kind of smoke particle emitter and parent it to a attachment inside the player’s head

[sage lagoon]

sounds like a coool idea though!

[wide igloo]

Im about to learn coding, anything I should know first?

were awesome and kind people

(we're desprate)

what about 8 tho 👀👀

[granite fractal]

its like 3 simple coding tasks lol

[bronze path]

Hiring is only allowed through the marketplace regardless if it's a bunch of effort. But you could try browsing #scripter-hirable if you don't want to go through the routine of making a post in #scripter-hiring.

Check #marketplace-info.

Thanks 🙏

[lime relic]

three (3) nothings

[lime relic]

how to read and write

[wide igloo]

lol, sounds good

[lime relic]

reading very important

you need to read the documentation too

everything there is listed pretty well ordered iirc @wide igloo

[languid canopy]

would anyone happen to know if editing terrain colors in game is possible? As in creating an in-game setting that lets you change it in your experience

[dusk ether]

is python and lua similar?

im taking a python course bc i couldnt find any free lua courses

[fallow gulch]

yes they feel similar to use

you can apply most of your python knowledge to lua, syntax will change obv

[dusk ether]

ok ty

[little wharf]

Hey scripting community, when you where learning, what motivated you?

I have been really motivated to learn, until I looked into the scripts others where doing and after seeing huge 400+ line scripts, I have lost motivation.
Any suggestions?

[dusk ether]

tbh i just have a good idea for a game and i want to make it happen

[little wharf]

How long did it take you to make this game>??

[dusk ether]

im learning to code rn and havent made anything yet

but i think if you put time into learning how to code, you will start to understand it better

[little wharf]

I watch tons of tt on it as well as yt, but its not the same as doing

[slender cairn]

anyone plays combat game? need someone to try my combat

[copper cape]

anyone fammiliar with .NET framework and SQL servers? need help will be appreciated. will not take much time just 1-2 questions

[hoary cedar]

Shoot

[copper cape]

wwha

[hoary cedar]

That means ask your question

[shut sorrel]

400+ lines isn't that hard to read, it's mostly just functions doing something specific used through out the script, you can copy the name of a function and see where it's used with Ctrl+F, more experienced devs use modules now which tries to keep scripts from being over 400 lines so it's easier to read, it's basically taking a 400+ line script and splitting it to smaller scripts just so it's not so chaotic to look at and lose motivation

I was motivated to just make a fun game and just practiced every day until it worked, all my scripts were disgusting in the beginning but it worked

[hoary cedar]

Don't be fooled though. Games reach anywhere from 30k -> 200k lines of code

[shut sorrel]

Yes if you combine all the modules together, being organized is very very important to not losing motivation

[little wharf]

I can’t even imagine how much code huge studios like big games would use

[shut sorrel]

It happens fast like you don't even pay attention to the amount of lines you write

[hoary cedar]

Around 200k

[little wharf]

Thank god

[shut sorrel]

You just have a goal and you just make stuff until it works and just might happen to take that many lines

[little wharf]

I cannot imagine sitting there writing 200k lines of code

At that point you just don’t go outside

[hoary cedar]

Like @shut sorrel said, you don't; it happens over time

200k lines of code comes together over the course of months

[little wharf]

I do suppose that would be over months

[shut sorrel]

A lot of people add a lot of spacing in code to organize what they're looking at too so a lot of it is blank space too

[little wharf]

And these people would be full time devs

[hoary cedar]

GitHub can help you track executable LOC counts for this reason

[little wharf]

Duck any good ways to learn?

[shut sorrel]

yea I don't like the hastle of uploading to github since I just prototype concepts most the time

[little wharf]

Wait

[hoary cedar]

You automate this when using Rojo for professional projects

[little wharf]

Can one of you give me a good project to do

I can’t think of anything good I could make as a project to learn scripting

[shut sorrel]

I've been using luau server plugin but it works too

[hoary cedar]

Visual Studio Code provides a CLI connection to your repository. Standard version control

[shut sorrel]

Well you should learn by making something you want to make, like for me I really wanted to make a sword art online game and spent months trying to figure everything out on my own and google

[hoary cedar]

Make Simon

[little wharf]

Who is Simon

[hoary cedar]

The pattern repitition game

[little wharf]

Ohh

That sounds cool

[shut sorrel]

You should really make what you're interested in to stay motivated

[hoary cedar]

It is a basic exercise of Luau fundamentals

[little wharf]

I can also make it look good because I’m a UI designer

[copper cape]

if u dont have much exp with making games start by making simple systems that u can one day use in ur dream game

[shut sorrel]

learn from other peoples script from toolbox too, it's a really good resource to scripts that do work(for the most part) and if it's similar to what you want to do the analyze the code

[hoary cedar]

I wouldn't advise learning from the toolbox nowadays

[shut sorrel]

Tru I mean I learned like 8 years ago so

Bit different

[hoary cedar]

It's chalk-full of legacy code and anti patterns

[little wharf]

Ah

[shut sorrel]

wow 10 years ago actually

[hoary cedar]

Yeah. I started learning in 2014. It was a good resource

#PeasFactory

[balmy zenith]

r u unc

[little wharf]

I’m gonna make the patern repetition one

[shut sorrel]

yes

[little wharf]

I should use math.random for the patterns yea?

[hoary cedar]

https://tenor.com/view/n3gat1ve-simon-gif-22685414

[little wharf]

Wait but once I have that pattern how do I save it to check if the player got it right later on

[hoary cedar]

Use an array

[shut sorrel]

I've never really used YouTube for scripting until I started to get more advanced and go to sleitnick or suphi kaner

Yt videos just feel like you're copying homework without learning

[balmy zenith]

no one really teaches "advanced" coding

[hoary cedar]

Every video that boasts advanced Roblox scripting is a lie

They're intermediate concepts at best

[shut sorrel]

It's more about the concepts that you learn like oop, projectile, server replication

[hoary cedar]

Take a university level algorithms and data structures class

[shut sorrel]

That does help, I've been thinking starting the MIT free courses

It's just a huge time commitment

[balmy zenith]

yep

[hoary cedar]

When it came time for me to move on from beginner YouTube videos, I came to servers and forums. Learned everything necessary to set off on my own from real and talented scripters

[balmy zenith]

none of which are advanced

[balmy zenith]

same

[winter magnet]

making tetranum

function Tetra.fromString(str: string): Tetra
    str = str:gsub('%s+', '')
    local man, exp, layer, hyper = str:match("^([%d%.%-]+)e([%d%-]+)%(([%d%-]+)%)↑([%d%-]+)$")
    man, exp, layer, hyper = tonumber(man), tonumber(exp), tonumber(layer), tonumber(hyper:: string)
    if man then
        return Tetra.new(man, exp, layer, hyper)
    end
    local man2, exp2, layer2 = str:match("^([%d%.%-]+)e([%d%-]+)%(([%d%-]+)%)$")
    man2, exp2, layer2 = tonumber(man2), tonumber(exp2), tonumber(layer2:: string)
    if man2 then
        return Tetra.new(man2, exp2, layer2)
    end
    local man3, exp3 = str:match("^([%d%.%-]+)e([%d%-]+)$")
    man3, exp3 = tonumber(man3), tonumber(exp3:: string)
    if man3 then
        return Tetra.new(man3, exp3)
    end
    local num = tonumber(str)
    if num then
        return Tetra.fromNumber(num)
    end
    error("Invalid Tetra number format: " .. str)
end``` so much fun lol for creating Tetra

[little wharf]

What’s an array 😭

[hoary cedar]

Try Harvard's free Computer Science lectures

[shut sorrel]

Yeah they are a bit intermediate, I mean more like greedy meshing and stuff with math is more advanced for me

[little wharf]

And I can’t read a single line of that

Wait i can read some

[hoary cedar]

Gerstners Waves, Boids, Ray-Marching, things like these

Sebastian Lauge is a great channel for gaining exposure to higher-level game development concepts

And just a fun ride in general

[shut sorrel]

I know all those I just wouldn't be able it to write it myself without using AI to help with the math

[hoary cedar]

That's why I study mathematics

I always envied those who knew what formulas to apply from the get-go

Being able to develop and/or optimize mathematics in game development is a valuable skill

[shut sorrel]

I've definitely learned my math by just making stuff in Roblox but I've never studied it, which I wish I did earlier

[hoary cedar]

If there's anything you can take away from mathematics, it's how to simplify ;)

[balmy zenith]

maths is hard

[shut sorrel]

I'm addicted to optimization

[hoary cedar]

Not really

It's painfully similar to scripting

[balmy zenith]

well prolly the algorithms thats hard

[winter magnet]

tetranum will last inf as in 3m+ yrs per operation of 1e3x1e3 but thats if i added void and abyss

[hoary cedar]

It's always a thrill getting a chance to develop and optimize mathematics for game development

https://devforum.roblox.com/t/how-do-i-create-an-advanced-damage-dropoff-equation-for-explosions/3310849

Here's an entertaining example

[shut sorrel]

I think the written math looks more confusing than seeing written in a script, it makes much more sense seeing math written in a script

probably because I never studied math

[balmy zenith]

yep

[shut sorrel]

I remember taking math in school I had to write it like a script

[balmy zenith]

i prefer reading math in code

cus math symbols dont make sense and sre hard to remember

[shut sorrel]

Yeah, in a script it makes sense what's actually happening

[hoary cedar]

Math is more terse on paper than in code

[steel shadow]

why cant i send a picture here

[slender cairn]

anyone wanna try me fighting game

[shut sorrel]

you need to level more in the server by chatting, dunno what level for this though maybe bronze 2

[soft egret]

What’s number 1 tutorial to learn cofr

Code

[steel shadow]

Alr thx

[shut sorrel]

there isn't just one tutorial, you can start with any beginner YouTube tutorial to get the absolute basics, but the rest you just google quest of what you need to do like googling "how do I tween a frame when click a button roblox" and it will have dev forums or documentation that you read

It's all mostly consistent practice

[tired violet]

it is but it isnt. like my brother would be good at maths but shite at scripting. and ill be the opposite

[shut sorrel]

they're both just written out instructions line by line, your brother should learn C

[upbeat saffron]

No need to fear, the scripter noob is here !

[edgy otter]

Why are you screaming with thaose variable names

Calm down bruh

[upbeat saffron]

idk i felt very happy

[odd bluff]

I’m not sure if that’s sarcastic but in the most least offensive way. That was hella nerdy

[slender cradle]

well too bad you're gonna get replaced by nerds

[odd bluff]

I suck at scripting anyways idk why I’m here

[odd bluff]

Brawldev

[solid rain]

I agree. Beginning is slightly hard because you need to learn properties and some other stuff beforehand

[odd bluff]

I skipped everything and went straight to his tween tutorial

Somehow I learnt it

[solid rain]

I was new to scripting so i went through all of his coding videos, i do see him uploading some new ones but I'm advanced enough to just look through the documentation now

I had problems with understanding CFrames and how to apply them correctly thats all

[odd bluff]

how advanced are u

U have the 3D modeler role 😭

[solid rain]

I'm fairly new scripter actually, just 6 months im applying for scripting role but its not enough apparently 😔

[odd bluff]

Unfortunate

I’m a new modeler

But i got Good really fast

I’m tryna learn how to texture

Cus my textures keep unaligning

With my model and become blurry

[solid rain]

well u can set resolution higher or set rendering property higher one of the two could fix your problem

Or maybe youre doing UV unwrap incorrectly idk

[hexed cedar]

What’s the most safe way to make an inventory system that DOES NOT use data store?

[solid rain]

Idk probably track the tools character and backpack with child added and removed and store them in tables idk why u need datastore

[normal jasper]

should i use cframe or bodymovers if i want to replicate smooth movement while using client prediction on the client?

[solid rain]

Probably cframes and lerping

[umbral elbow]

local rig = workspace.Rig
local humanoid = rig:WaitForChild("Humanoid")
local hrp = rig:WaitForChild("HumanoidRootPart")
local debounce = {
    
}

local part = workspace.Part

local following = false
local targetRoot = nil

local function followLoop()
    while following and targetRoot and targetRoot.Parent do
        humanoid:MoveTo(targetRoot.Position)
        task.wait(0.05) -- smaller = more responsive/smooth
    end

    following = false
end

part.Touched:Connect(function(hit)
    local targetHumanoid = hit.Parent:FindFirstChild("Humanoid")
    if not targetHumanoid then return end

    local root = hit.Parent:FindFirstChild("HumanoidRootPart")
    if not root then return end

    targetRoot = root
    
    local player = game.Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(hit.Parent)

    if not following and not debounce[player] then
        debounce[player] = true
        following = true
        task.spawn(followLoop)
    end
end)

rig:FindFirstChildOfClass("MeshPart").Touched:Connect(function(touched)
    touched.Parent:FindFirstChild("Humanoid").Health = 0
end)
```Thoughts?

Anyone?

[solid rain]

If im correct bodymovers need to be rendered by server for others to see. Or try if network ownership ciuld work im not sure then u can choose either

[normal jasper]

yea i could also have a listener on the client that would create the bodymover and would replicate that way, i honestly just want to save on performance while still trying to make the gameplay feel responsive which is why im trying to use client prediction, the only issue is that idk if running these bodymovers on the servers would cause any lag

[dark juniper]

What are u even trying to do

[normal jasper]

work on a combat system, and currently i trying to tackle knockback, i want it to feel responsive on the attacker client

[dark juniper]

Body velocity on the server?

Have u tried

[normal jasper]

thats what i initially did but the movement was delayed on the client, its because the server is receiving the request to move both players x ms after the initial click

[dark juniper]

Well obviously there will be delay no matter what method you do, any sort of instance you apply on the character needs time to replicate to the client and for remotes the information needs time to pass.

[normal jasper]

not necessarily, which is why i mentioned client prediction if you read what i said prior

[dark juniper]

What benefits would client prediction add

[normal jasper]

it gives the illusion of responsiveness, while the client is sending a request to move itself and the victim of an attack, the client is creating a "prediction" of what would happening according to the current game state
