can somebody help me make a script where it makes something spawn and makes it go somewhere and disapear?

[hollow hollow]

ask these dingbats #code-help

[eternal ridge]

how did you learn how to code?

[fading onyx]

ts not bad js get better ui honestly

[faint flame]

Yo

[rotund scaffold]

anyone wanna make some projects with me i just need a buddy that knows how to script and we can make stuff yk

[graceful delta]

You'd get more help for code off of modellers than you will from anyone active in code help

There's a reason people started asking here

[proud spade]

Can anyone help me

[graceful delta]

What's up, I'll help best I can when I get home

[autumn vale]

With?

[wise turtle]

ball is too delayed tbh

[autumn vale]

Is this c++ or am I missing smth

[mossy lynx]

yoo lemme be a dev fr

[mossy lynx]

ts so easy js le arn it urself but if u need then dm me

[hidden dune]

why does hum.MoveToFinished:Wait() cancel early sometimes when the npc is slow

[mossy lynx]

who here a good scripter who knows datastores, I want to learn them because they are confusing for me, I tried learning from a youtube video but it didnt rlly explain it ykwim

do frameworks ever help yall have less memory usage

for some reason it does for me

[grim delta]

looking for someone who can give feedback for a somewhat large project

[regal salmon]

what were you confused about?

[regal salmon]

i believe MoveTo has a limit to how long it can run for without reaching its destination before it gives up

8 seconds i think

[mossy lynx]

everything, its js so long anmd stuff and i dpnt udnerstand like I could go through the code and memorize it but I wanna understand ykwim

I havent tried watching brawldev yet tho

bro data stores are the fucking worst

[regal salmon]

have you tried the documentation?

[mossy lynx]

no

how would I find it

would I be abkle to find it all at once

or just indivudla lines

[regal salmon]

ill send you the link to it in dms since im not a high enough level to send links here yet

https://create.roblox.com/docs/cloud-services/data-stores

oh nvm im awesome

there you go

[mossy lynx]

ty

apprecaite it

[regal salmon]

yw

[mossy lynx]

should I learn pcalls so I know why to use it before I learn datastores

Im still bnew so I dont know a lot, only the basic stuff (well basic to me)

[regal salmon]

yes
a basic explanation is that pcall means protected call, which allows you to catch any errors that a chunk code of may produce
catching these errors means your script wont stop running when they happen, and you can use the info from those errors in your following code
https://create.roblox.com/docs/reference/engine/globals/LuaGlobals#pcall

thank you I really appreciate it

any1 know why this script wont work? I am trying to make bascially a variant on my sword and im testing it with this

local character

tool.Equipped:Connect(function()
    character = tool.Parent
    local player = game.Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(character)
    local folder = player:WaitForChild("testFolder")
    local bv = folder:WaitForChild("testVariant")
    
    if bv.Value == true then
    local particle = Instance.new("ParticleEmitter")
    local handle = tool:WaitForChild("Handle")
    particle.Name = "Variant"
    particle.Rate = 40
    particle.Parent = handle
    end
end)

tool.Unequipped:Connect(function()
    local handle = tool:WaitForChild("Handle")
    local particle = handle:FindFirstChild("Variant")
    if particle then
        particle:Destroy()
    end
end)

NVM

i js realized I cant make boolvalues on the client

[humble linden]

can someone like send me tips on how to code. this my day 1 and i know how to code a killbirck

[hoary cedar]

Explain how your code works

[humble linden]

this is my killbrick code

local killBrick = script.Parent

local function onTouch(hit)
local humanoid = hit.Parent:FindFirstChild("Humanoid")
if humanoid then
humanoid.Health = 0
end
end

killBrick.Touched:Connect(onTouch)

basically the first line is how the code is for the brick

[hoary cedar]

"How the code is for the brick" is not good enough of an explanation for that line

[humble linden]

and then the other lines is when the humanoid which is the charcater hits the brick and health turns to 0

[hoary cedar]

You're leaving out a lot of details

What's the purpose of the function. What is hit?

[humble linden]

It means when the character hits the brick?

[hoary cedar]

No

[humble linden]

Yo gng can I like get some tips then

[hoary cedar]

Spend more time understanding what it is your code does

#scripter-hirable

[royal ibex]

It’s the part that hit the brick could be anything

Any scripters have good advice on how to actively learn scripting and what areas I should target first? Because I know some basics and such like scripting a killbrick and I used to know how to make a dash ability (forgot that one lol). So reaching out!

[static patio]

my friend thinks he can learn scripting by studying free models yall believe in him?

[zenith wyvern]

no but you can get some info frm thme

[zenith wyvern]

yes stop worrying about how to learn and just learn

like you guys quit after a singular day

you learn scripting by sticking to it, don't swap languages constantly, stick to one language and push through it and you will learn

[haughty sapphire]

stop writing bad code

[gaunt mortar]

Probably a really stupid question but, im somewhat proficient with css, does knowing css help with learning html like at all? I assume not but also they go hand and hand? Im digging out an old laptop tommorow to dust off the really rusty css skills but the problem is the way im building a site doesnt allow direct css alteration and only allows HTML embeds so im going to have to attempt to learn it regardless to get this site up and running

[haughty sapphire]

free models have very bad code unless u mean packages by the community, but they r often not that readable

[spiral monolith]

I think you should learn html first and foremost

Its kind of pointless to know css without knowing html

Like eating the sauce and not the pasta type shit

[gaunt mortar]

Oh I already know how to do css! I used to create CSS Huds for .io games and got commissions from that but I never had to deal with the HTML part mostly due to the fact I was only editing the face of the website and not building it yknow?

[spiral monolith]

Ah

Not sure css would help understand html better because css is basically used to style as you prob already know

But html is sort of building the whole site

[zenith wyvern]

yes it helps

[gaunt mortar]

Yea i was hoping that maybe in a way understanding what the layout in css was for most sites would help me understand how to build the foundation for HTML at the very least

[zenith wyvern]

html is glue css is pretty paint js is cogs in the machine

[gaunt mortar]

Oh god I forgot about js-

[zenith wyvern]

html is also incredibly easy to learn

[gaunt mortar]

[zenith wyvern]

its not even a programming language

neither is CSS tbf

[spiral monolith]

Not the point tho

[gaunt mortar]

Is it not? When I was introduced to it I was informed it was a code language

[spiral monolith]

Well yeah you code

[zenith wyvern]

to be specific it is a markup language but nobody cares except for nerds

[gaunt mortar]

Idk its been like 5 years since I was like heavily using css

[zenith wyvern]

its more comparable to like notepad lol

[gaunt mortar]

Ah gotcha

Yeah im trying to make a site that will communicate with an api to display not real time stats but frequently updated stats to form a number equivalent to a value and use those to create a calculator for trading in a game that doesnt have any inbuilt values so im trying to set a small goal for myself (learning to build the foundation in css) then work my way up to the end goal of the full fledged site

Its a bit confusing with kinda just trying to do it myself with no direction

[craggy gust]

?

[somber vault]

any one know how to code

[rustic furnace]

I need advanced scripters that can work on a full game tds style paying in usd must have fast good work dm

[somber vault]

pls dm if some one know how to code

[fallow horizon]

check ur dms

[jovial crown]

Yk #scripter-hirable exists

[jovial crown]

"Advanced" expects atleast a skill Role or a portfolio

[fallow horizon]

i dont wanna go through the work of getting a skill role

i have too many commissions to do allat😭

clearly have a portfolio in my bio

[balmy sorrel]

yeah buddy you're unqualified 😂

I don't know why he even bothered

[jovial crown]

Ur portfolio got 3 projects and none r impressive

Ur clearly not having commisions

Ur begging in #code-discussion

[fallow horizon]

can u not read..? top of my portfolio states why

[fallow horizon]

i sent ONE msg, thats not begging😭

[jovial crown]

9 yrs experience. Yea all my projects got corrupted

No one believing ts

[jovial crown]

If u had a loy of commisions u wouldnt

[fallow horizon]

thats not what my portfolio says🫩

it says my rblx acc got deleted and i got a new pc so i dont have last work

[balmy sorrel]

Also the contributed visits thing is some bullshit

I hate when people do that

[fallow horizon]

yall talking just 2 talk im not arguing abt this bs😭

[jovial crown]

Ur ssd drives contains it + its not deleted out of roblox yk

• u lit should've had ur previous portfolio

[fallow horizon]

i got a new ssd???😭😭😭

its a completely new build and literally i just use one baseplate to script for different commissions then i send a file😭

[jovial crown]

In 9 yrs programming in toblox

[fallow horizon]

i didnt have a portfolio before, not everyone does, common sense pls

[jovial crown]

Connect previous ssd it ain't That Hard

[jovial crown]

9 yrs no portfolio

I had a new build yet everything stayed

U do not qualify to count as advanced scripter

[fallow horizon]

i’m not arguing w u abt this bro😭

ur starting stuff js to start stuff its never that deep

[balmy sorrel]

common sense tells you to make one

everyone worth their shit will ask for one

[lean ocean]

sorry sir unless I'm blind there's no portfolio in ur bio

[snow raft]

Me when I see a commission that has the word

“Fix” in it

Or “update previous scripters work” in it

I don’t think there is enough money in the world to get me to do ts

I’ve seen some things, man

[balmy sorrel]

I've actually had pretty good experiences with those comms

[snow raft]

I once worked in a project that had 8 remote events included when I started and 6 of them gave way to exploits that would let you give yourself infinite money

One just literally was

[balmy sorrel]

Most of the time it was something relatively simple and I got like 3 - 5k off of it

[compact spoke]

So what

[snow raft]

“AquireMoney(player, amount)”

[compact spoke]

I don't care don't talk to me

[snow raft]

USD or Robux

I got 1k usd for what I did

[balmy sorrel]

robux

ok

[snow raft]

Oh

[balmy sorrel]

whatever you were working on

must've been insane

if you got 1k USD

[snow raft]

It was a simulator

[balmy sorrel]

how many days

[snow raft]

They just had a lot of funding

[snow raft]

I’d say I worked on it for about 3 weeks over a long period of time

[balmy sorrel]

man

[snow raft]

I was working for 30 an hour

[balmy sorrel]

I guess that's alright

[snow raft]

So like 30 hours of work?

[balmy sorrel]

I wouldn't know I stopped doing comms and did volunteer work instead

[snow raft]

They owed me 1500 they just gave up on the project and didn’t wanna fully pay me 🥀

[balmy sorrel]

wow

that's sad

[snow raft]

I would do that

If I could find a team that was motivated

[balmy sorrel]

lol

[snow raft]

And didn’t give up after a week

[balmy sorrel]

volunteer and motivated do not exist

if there is no funding nothing will be done

[snow raft]

The amount of times I’ve found people who volunteer to help me with my projects

To do 1 thing then ghost me

@fallow dock 🥀

[balmy sorrel]

noted

[snow raft]

He did it two times

[balmy sorrel]

Will avoid this guy like the plague

[snow raft]

Bro 😭

He did it once dmed me a year later saying he was ready to try again and how motivated he was this time

To ghost me after another week 😭

[balmy sorrel]

lmao

[snow raft]

You can’t make it up

[zealous crystal]

Tbh u can't complain fractal

It's volunteer work

roblox doing anything exept give the feature to add custom importable fonts.

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/1274098527663947837/1447931586615054346/2025-12-09_13-38-46.mp4?ex=69396adf&is=6938195f&hm=2c32db92e0df705acb93a30dd907172224dfdcaef6e4204317b45ef93bb9fe1b&

no text wrapping, prefer using multiple spaces (also saves time wasted)

the dialogue script runs as a module script and can be easily called out. tried it first with a remoteevent buuuuuuut. was super annoying

instead of calling to a event, then the handler sending it to the client, then the client receiving it. all i can do is paste a simple (dialogueMgr.SpawnDialogue(ID, speed, font, Voicebank, minPitch, maxPitch, msg)) and call it a day

[warm nova]

please help me

anyone

please i cant import animation i made

using the default animation editor

[austere violet]

why dont u name them?

[warm nova]

im a lil stupid

but even the named ones

its like once i save it

thats the only time i can use it

[austere violet]

what you could try is opening it up on the creator marketplace, download the RBXM and import them into studio, thats the only thing i could think of tbh

[warm nova]

but once i try to import one i already made

it wont allow me

[warm nova]

i dunno how to do that

mind showing me

my savior

i dead ass dont wanna remake these animation

[austere violet]

um, sure

gimme a sec

[warm nova]

they were perfect doubt ill hit the same angles again

dem strokes were dam near perfect...smh

[austere violet]

@warm nova

midway forgot u use roblox standard animator so i switched up

[warm nova]

i dont got moon animator

[austere violet]

yea thats why i closed it and used the normal one

[warm nova]

thats why i use the default

oooh ok bet

i peep what u did

[warm nova]

lemme see if mines work

[ancient root]

Roblox is so dumb, it can literally see I just set it 1 line ago.

[regal salmon]

you wrote "Instance_new" instead of "Instance.new". do you have a custom function named Instance_new?

because if not, that's why

[warm nova]

i love you

[regal salmon]

or the function may not have a 100% chance of returning a new instance

[austere violet]

glad to help

[warm nova]

W's in dah shawt

[ancient root]

local Instance_new = Instance.new

micro optimisations

[regal salmon]

huh, interesting

okay yeah roblox dumb

[snow raft]

Me too

I’ve been working on the same project since 2022 but mines evolved to unity

Are you at that stage yet

[rose notch]

Would it be more efficient/smoother to make a custom physics engine to replace the roblox physics engine?

[somber vault]

Probably not

but it also depends

[rose notch]

agh but I'm trying to figure out a way to slow down tick speed and timescale

[somber vault]

I doubt you should make custom physics for everything in your game

[rose notch]

and the methods I've found for that haven't been satisfactory

[rose notch]

well there's not much besides a ball, and the players

and I need both to be affected by a timescale property

[somber vault]

What's timescale?

[austere violet]

depends how much would be moving i think

[rose notch]

basically most engines have a timescale so you can slow down how fast the game runs

except roblox

because they suck

[austere violet]

Correct

[rose notch]

and there has actually been a demand for timescale for quite a bit.
but they haven't added it 😭

[somber vault]

That's because everything is tied to the framerate and nothing is fixed-step

I think

[rose notch]

then let us change the server framerate

at LEAST

[somber vault]

Slowing down the framerate in order to slow down the physics is not a good idea

[austere violet]

the effort of them putting into the age segregations chatting couldve been putten into actually improving the engine and adding more features that shouldve been added a looooong time ago

[rose notch]

EXACTLYYYYY

like a better animator

and support for bone resizing

or atleast letting us animate part size

or maybe improving tweenservice

like being able to use one tween for different objects

[austere violet]

roblox doing anything exept address their drama or add good features.

tutorial on how to procrastinate your inevitable doom of your company to draw out as much money as possible

[rose notch]

anyways back to this.
the only things moving would be players, and one part which is a soccer ball

but I realized that because the ball uses a physics based system it gets all jittery for no reason

I need it too look smooth for players

[austere violet]

then i would say making a custom physics script or just a complex script to make it more realistic would be really good

[rose notch]

but still be in sync

[somber vault]

Roblox did actually get a lot of good features implemented this year

[rose notch]

like aerodynamics?..

[somber vault]

although to be fair, a lot of their work I think went into the AI stuff that's just made to impress shareholders

[rose notch]

who the hell is using aerodynamics for their slop game

[austere violet]

yep...

greedy company 101

[rose notch]

yea-

[rose notch]

actually tell me I don't really know what they added-

besides aerodynamics and new humanoid controllers

which the humanoid controllers are def a W

but still need a bit of polishing

[chilly canyon]

Hi

[somber vault]

EditableMesh and EditableImage is from this year no?

or is it from 2024, I can't remember

[austere violet]

maybe you could make a serversided ball and a client sided one, basically the servercontrolled one would be invisible and the client sided one could follow the server one. and maybe some jank script to calculate smooth curves or smthn like that... never did it before and dont know if it even is possible

[rose notch]

I mean azure latch has really good ball replication

but they don't use physics

[austere violet]

yea

i think they have a script that makes it move realisticly

[rose notch]

they have desmos 💀

[austere violet]

tha hell is a desmos

give me a sec

[rose notch]

graphing app

[somber vault]

Yeah my bad that's 2024

[rose notch]

what can you use an editable mesh for

[austere violet]

yea nah....

[rose notch]

yea lol

[austere violet]

https://tenor.com/view/peace-out-gif-22295199

way out of my pay grade

and deff.... out of my skill range

[rose notch]

it's not that hard to understand but basically what I'm saying is that they have a script to generate a 3d graph,
then they just make the ball follow it

[austere violet]

really... really... insane for a goofy game like azure latch

[rose notch]

yea lol

[austere violet]

i swear its always the goofy games who have impressive stuff

[rose notch]

Grace

[austere violet]

jjs

[rose notch]

🙏

[austere violet]

jjs just added NPCs, and oh my days

[rose notch]

Builderman May Cry

[rose notch]

whattttt

[austere violet]

the npcs are better at fighting than 70% of the player base

[rose notch]

lollll dope

[somber vault]

Cool-looking oceans

Procedurally generated terrain

[austere violet]

oooooo

procedurallyyyyyyy

[somber vault]

useless stuff for Roblox

[rose notch]

that's actually really good,
but what about like.

characters

[somber vault]

?

[rose notch]

like I see it has a getBones() function in it,
that implies something to do with animations

so what can be done there

[austere violet]

very bougie

[rose notch]

indeed

we can now create minecraft

in roblox

oh but wait can we generate a noise map-

[austere violet]

local Wallet = LocalPlayer.Pants.LeftPocket.Wallet
Wallet.Value = math.huge

[somber vault]

Alright guys

[austere violet]

https://tenor.com/view/gif-i-got-a-plan-have-an-idea-light-bulb-gif-13396253

[somber vault]

I'm mentally ill and I'm assuming you two aren't

so could you care to act a little bit normal right now?

[rose notch]

I got kicked in the face yesterday

so I'm prolly, not ok-

[somber vault]

Because the point is that you use the noise map to generate the terrain, and the EditableMesh to render all of it

[austere violet]

theoretically, its something worth a try, using a image for terrain height, which prob wont work but....

[somber vault]

and I'm very sure I have head trauma too

[rose notch]

yea yea, but idk how to generate perlin noise :p

[somber vault]

Yeah, which is why games like Minecraft use 3D noise

[rose notch]

thats how minecraft does it

[austere violet]

i know

but would it somehow worth with roblox.....

[rose notch]

totally, it's just the image idk how to do-

[austere violet]

hmmm

[rose notch]

wait can you even look at a pixel of an image in roblox?

[austere violet]

i have an idea

you could have a library of noises which connect in a tile

basically a proceedurally generated tile of noisemaps which then get SOMEHOW by some miracle converted to terrain

i could try it

i need a break for working on my game anyway

ill keep u updated

[somber vault]

I actually researched once a lot into terrain generation with gradient noise

and in how Minecraft does it

[austere violet]

imma go to rest...

[hidden dune]

what

who pinged me

[austere violet]

go a vid i could watch when i wake up about that?

[hidden dune]

Actually its perlin noise

built in function in roblox

math.noise(xposition, yposition zposition)

could use math.random() and multiplying to generate a random seed

or does math has math.seed

i forgot lowk

[somber vault]

It's actually way more complex to make a good terrain

I was gonna make a devforum post about it but it just wasn't worth it to write allat

[hidden dune]

perlin noise is smooth gradient

how could that not be good

you can configure it tho

for it to be more smooth

like for plains

[somber vault]

Yeah that's not what real-life terrain looks like

and some people need to also generate caves, not just the top layer

[craggy gust]

Hm

[hidden dune]

i mean its still perlin noise just on top of more perlin noise prob

[somber vault]

You have to use a 4D noise, usually simplex

[hidden dune]

we cannot use 4d

we can only theorize about it

[somber vault]

The three dimensions are for X, Y and Z

the fourth is just the seed

[hidden dune]

that wouldnt be exactly 4d

[somber vault]

Who cares

[hidden dune]

me

call it a seed

not 4d

[somber vault]

and for biomes, you use a set of different simple 2d perlin noise that determine things like moisture

temperature

[hidden dune]

yeah

thats what minecraft uses

i said perlin noise on top of another perlin noise

[somber vault]

I can't remember much now

but there was actually a video of a presentation that explained it, made by a Mojang employee

[hidden dune]

i watched alot of videos

that showed how it works

[somber vault]

There was this one constant that was very important to how caves generate and I can't remember any of it

[teal yacht]

For a game that has a trade system, what is the best server size?6? 10?

[hidden dune]

10 or more

[rose notch]

Its easy to convert to terrain, you ever wondered why the minecraft height limit went up to 255 and down to 0 before the cave and cliffs update?

[rose notch]

Ooo cool.

Im making a soccer game but its gonna be a lot different from the other ones.

Its finna have a devil may cry combo system.

[teal yacht]

I'm an analystic and i've been making the feasibility study of my game for some days, and i'm trying to find a way to find any errors, but i just don't find it, i already sent to my team and i can answear all questions and i tried IA too. do you guys know a site or smth that can actually ask good questions so i can finally fix something?

[rose notch]

Keep rewriting your script over and over, make improvements and make it fast.

Dont be afraid to change things that you expect to be different.

In this case you can make a modifier button that changes your moves a bit, so when you hold it down, it does an uppercut and doesnt let you jump, but when you let go you can jump and do a downslam, and if you're in the air and hold the modifier button it can do a new move no one has seen before.

[rose notch]

What are you doing when you try to find a bug?

And whats the bug

(I feel like this is ai bait but whatever)

[lean ocean]

What's the pay

[rose notch]

Go dm him-

[teal yacht]

For example, my inicial idea of my project is to give a common hero for the player, so he can start using it, people are saying to give a good hero right on the start so the player think he got lucky on the game and get exitec, but i disagree with this idea, since yes, they will find it great, their dopamine will grow a lot on the start, but when you get too much dopamine on the start, your brain will always try to get even more dopamine, or he will get quickly tired of that, so on the first 5 minutes he will find the game great, but because of this explosion of dopamine he got right on the start, he will quickly get tired and will leave the game faster than he would.

And i need atleast 30+ minutes of playtime

[rose notch]

Thinking like that is the problem here.

[teal yacht]

for a obby or a generic game the high dopamine is good, but for a long game, i don't think so

[rose notch]

Let me ask you this, what game makes you come back to it often?

[teal yacht]

On general or on roblox?

[rose notch]

General

[teal yacht]

Counter Strike, competitive ones

[rose notch]

Why is that

[teal yacht]

Because i always remember how good i was and i want to come back and make that fire flicks again, so i can come, notice that i am horrible and practice over and onver again untill i get good again

the exactly logic i explained on the image

progress of dopamine

not taking it all of once

[velvet zinc]

how is this chat alive

[rose notch]

(Kinda depressing but still works)

That is the environment you feel you belong the most then.

Now it wouldnt work if csgo tried to make it work for as many people as possible.

You have to know your target audience

You need a topic to start

[teal yacht]

I still didn't get 100%¨involved with market(wich is the next step), but i have a clue that the new generation wants things fast

[rose notch]

Arsenal is a roblox arcade shooter focussed on the gun game mode from call of duty, so people who enjoy that type of game will keep coming back.

[rose notch]

Shhhhh ignore the market right now

What you need to focus on is the audience you want to satisfy

Not the general market

[urban charm]

alr ill try to

[rose notch]

If you focus on what everyone is playing it wont matter if theyre already satisfied or dont want anything more

Or atleast the scope has to be huge

Like baldurs gate 3

[teal yacht]

You are saying that i need to find the audience first so i can find the inconsistencies on the systems?

[rose notch]

If you find the audience, and know the audience, they will show you the inconsistencies themselves, because thats what they demand

[teal yacht]

makes sense

[craggy gust]

No idea

[velvet zinc]

also go to dev dicussion

[teal yacht]

Where can i find them?I'm looking for a audience that likes to build a comunity

[craggy gust]

Well

Just be active and social

[teal yacht]

Like, the game itself has many aspects that people would want to discuss about, like the trade and strategy of bases

[craggy gust]

https://tenor.com/view/think-thinking-thoughts-person-all-the-time-gif-1836332222206272183

[rose notch]

Grace is a good example, its a pretty niece genre but the following is there, its a roblox, speedrunning horror game where gameplay is at the center.

It takea inspiration from doors, which is also a roblox horror game, but it is more focussed on its story and is designed around its much slower paced gameplay.

Grace was created for the people who wanted the same game formula as doors but at a high octane speed.

If you want to find an audience the best way to do that is to become apart of it, or look at the most polarizing playerbase.

[craggy gust]

Grace only got popular cuz of door's and pressure's player

They only played grace cuz it was like doors and pressure

[rose notch]

Exactly, because there were people who wanted more put of those games (including me)

[craggy gust]

Well yea but still the main goal was to get players from those games

[rose notch]

Yes but the people that stayed were the target audience

[craggy gust]

Also the standards of roblox is genuinely fried.

[rose notch]

Yes-

[rose notch]

True...

[craggy gust]

Find a brainrot hit 700k ccu

[rose notch]

Yea nothing gonna stop that from happening ig-

[teal yacht]

then, i have the perfect game for this, this shitty game had the EXACTLY same idea i had months ago and i needed to rebuild it and make a better idea

[craggy gust]

Like I understand SAB, plants vs zombies hitting million ccu BUT

FIND A BRAINROT ?

[rose notch]

Good idea!

[rose notch]

What

Oh...

Uh i mean yea

[craggy gust]

so yea..

[rose notch]

I guess that WOULD be the best

Alas, damn you democracy

[craggy gust]

I got many ideas and they are all original since I checked but I just don't got the skills to make the games so just focusing on learning

Anyways my break is over I should go back and study ..

[rose notch]

Yea thats where i started, just focus on creating different types of frameworks, from simple to complex

Now i finally mustered the courage to start developping my first game

[craggy gust]

Every new developer gets hit with a very hard reality check 🙏🏻

[rose notch]

Yup

Its a huge wall

Almost incomprehensible sometimes

But you just gotta keep going bit by bit

[craggy gust]

When I was new I thought toolbox was safe.. even the highly rated models

[pastel pine]

Yo I need help with task.spawn()

[gray mantle]

Im what way

[pastel pine]

If I run it and give it a function after saving it as in a variable like this:

V = task.spawn(function()Myfunchere()end)

Then does V.cancel(Myfunchere) end the function run while its running?

Assuming V is defined already before in the code

[gray mantle]

That's not how you cancel threads

You need to do task.cancel(thread)

[pastel pine]

And that would terminate the task right

Assuming I saved the task as a variable

[gray mantle]

Yeah

[pastel pine]

So it would be task.cancel(V)

[gray mantle]

Yeah

[pastel pine]

Hmm

Thanks

can any1 tell me why my gui isnt showing no errors also printed frame.visible it even said it was true but no gui is showing on the screen why

[mossy lynx]

I got a scvript where if the value = true then the sword gets a particle effect it works when I put the value to to true but doenst work when I rejoin (because its not saving)

[modest parrot]

datastore

[regal salmon]

you should also connect the player leaving function to game:BindToClose, because if the server stops instead of just a player leaving, playerremoving wont be run in time
https://create.roblox.com/docs/reference/engine/classes/DataModel#BindToClose

[mossy lynx]

ok

appreciate it

[regal salmon]

np

[modest parrot]

why dont u js use data store?

[mossy lynx]

but if I test it rq like I leave the game instead of unrunning iot will it work u think?

js want to test to see if it would work

[flat viper]

day 6 of progress on my soccer game

[regal salmon]

they are, its just not saving

[modest parrot]

thts weird wheres code

[regal salmon]

you could run the game with two clients in studio and have only one leave

[mossy lynx]

lowkey might haveto upd my pc its mad laggy

[regal salmon]

^

[modest parrot]

first off task.wait

second

[mossy lynx]

alr

task.wait and wait dont matter lmao

[regal salmon]

task.wait is better than wait but wait still works

[mossy lynx]

well yeha thats what I meant like its not stopping it from working

[modest parrot]

yea use bind to close not player removing

unreliable

[mossy lynx]

can u show me how to use the bidn thingy in it rn I gotta upd my comptuer cz its laggy so I cant rlly open the doc

[modest parrot]

bro game:bindtocose

[regal salmon]

you gotta use both lol

[modest parrot]

i dont use player removing like that

too unreliable

but yea does any1 know?

[mossy lynx]

how would I add it to my script because I neevr seem this before mb

[modest parrot]

?

[regal salmon]

put your playerremoving logic into a separate function, then bind the playerremoving to that function
and bindtoclose has to loop through all players and run that function for them
e.g.

function playerLeaving(player)
  -- logic
end

game.Players.PlayerRemoving:Connect(playerLeaving)
game:BindToClose(function()
  for _, plr in ipairs(game.Players:GetPlayers())
    playerLeaving(plr)
  end
end)

[modest parrot]

guess thats a smart way to do it he gave u

run it like

game:Bindtoclose

then run the playerleaving function

inside the bindtoclose function

local MenuServiceUtils = {}

function MenuServiceUtils:GETPARTANDCAMERA(part:Part, camera:Camera)
    part = part or Instance.new("Part")
    camera = workspace.CurrentCamera
    
    part.CFrame = CFrame.new(-3617.4, 826.517, -297.4)
    part.Anchored = true
    part.CanCollide = false
    part.Transparency = 1
    part.Parent = workspace
    
    camera.CameraType = Enum.CameraType.Scriptable
    
    camera.CFrame = CFrame.new(-3617.4, 826.517, -297.4) * CFrame.Angles(0, math.rad(180), 0)
    
    
    return part, camera
end

function MenuServiceUtils:GETGUI(Frame : Frame)
    Frame.Parent.Enabled = true
    Frame.Visible = true
    
end

return MenuServiceUtils

can any1 tell me why my gui isnt showing no errors also printed frame.visible it even said it was true but no gui is showing on the screen why

[regal salmon]

where are you running it from? is it in a localscript? and are you sure all parents and required children of the target gui are also enabled and visible?

[modest parrot]

no errors in a module script thats a child of a local script

theres no errors and even runned some debug prints

local MenuService = {}

local MenuServiceUtils = require(script.Parent:WaitForChild("MenuServiceUtils"))
local RS = game:GetService("ReplicatedStorage")
local Camparts = RS:WaitForChild("CamParts")
local StarterGui = game:GetService("StarterGui")
local Frame = StarterGui:WaitForChild('NEWMAINMENU'):WaitForChild("Frame")

function MenuService:Init()
    
    MenuServiceUtils:GETPARTANDCAMERA(Camparts.MenuServicePart, workspace.CurrentCamera)
    MenuServiceUtils:GETGUI(Frame)
    
    print(Frame.Visible)
end


return MenuService

[regal salmon]

and the prints are running?

[modest parrot]

yep

[regal salmon]

oh i see

[modest parrot]

says true

[regal salmon]

you're getting the frame from StarterGui, not the player's own gui

StarterGui is for templates, which are then copied to player.PlayerGui when they join

it means each player has their own gui

[modest parrot]

yea but when i tried to get playergui in the module it didnt even work it errored

[mossy lynx]

    local folder = player:WaitForChild("variantFolder")
    local bv = folder:WaitForChild("purpleVariant")
    local value = bv.Value
    pcall(function()
        saveVariant:SetAsync(player.UserId, value)
    end)

end

game.Players.PlayerRemoving:Connect(function(playerLeaving)
    game:BindToClose()
    for _, player in pairs(game.Players:GetPlayers()) do
        playerLeaving(player)
    end
    end)

like this?

[modest parrot]

no

im pretty sure u put the stuff in a game:bindtoclose function

[regal salmon]

if its a local module then you should just be able to to do game.Players.LocalPlayer.PlayerGui
you could also potentially use WaitForChild on the PlayerGui and Frame

[modest parrot]

call playerleaving function in the game:bindtoclose funciton

[regal salmon]

bindtoclose is separate from playerremoving

[regal salmon]

^^

[mossy lynx]

wait wym

mb I learned so mcuh in the last hour i cant think

[regal salmon]

PlayerRemoving is called when a player leaves, while BindToClose is called when the server stops

[royal ibex]

Just use profilestore🙏

[regal salmon]

currently youre binding BindToClose every time a player leaves

reread my example and compare it to your own code

[mossy lynx]

oh I didnt put a ufnction in it

[regal salmon]

i dont think its a good idea to go straight to a framework without atleast knowing the basics of the core system

[mossy lynx]

?

[modest parrot]

i stick to datastore but just make it better

[royal ibex]

I mean I went straight in without knowing the core system and I turned out fine🙏

[regal salmon]

in PlayerRemoving, youre making a new function and then using BindToClose inside that function rather than just binding PlayerRemoving to your existing function

[royal ibex]

Just read documentation on it

[royal ibex]

U think?

[modest parrot]

i dont use profile store even know its proven to be better i js build on datastore and make it better

[royal ibex]

Fair enough I just hate backend🙏

[mossy lynx]

function playerLeaving(player)
    local folder = player:WaitForChild("variantFolder")
    local bv = folder:WaitForChild("purpleVariant")
    local value = bv.Value
    pcall(function()
        saveVariant:SetAsync(player.UserId, value)
    end)

end

game.Players.PlayerRemoving:Connect(playerLeaving)
    game:BindToClose(function()
    for _, player in pairs(game.Players:GetPlayers()) do
        playerLeaving(player)
    end
    end)

this?

[regal salmon]

thats the same code

[modest parrot]

yea i sucked at it until i just kept failing and failing

[mossy lynx]

bro what

[regal salmon]

oh wait

its just formatted weirdly

yes thats it

[mossy lynx]

still dont work I also got the api services or wtv its called on too

[regal salmon]

are you sure the folder and value are actually being created and changed? because i just tested it and it works fine for me

[mossy lynx]

they arent being created there Im finding it but should I create it instead in there? it already exists in a different script

[regal salmon]

it shouldnt matter where you create it since youre using waitforchild, so long as its created eventually

[mossy lynx]

hm idk then

[mossy lynx]

try making it isndie a different code and doign the same code as me see if it works? maybe? u dont got to cz it takes time

[regal salmon]

still fine

show me where you're creating them

[mossy lynx]

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

    local bv = Instance.new("BoolValue")
    bv.Name = "purpleVariant"
    bv.Parent = folder
end)

script in serverscript

[regal salmon]

and does that work?

[mossy lynx]

yeah

[regal salmon]

where is the datastore script

[mossy lynx]

I got a local script that gives me the bool value

[regal salmon]

ahh

[mossy lynx]

in serverscriptservice

[regal salmon]

theres the problem

[mossy lynx]

oh

[regal salmon]

you have to set it on the server
localscripts will only change things on the client, so the server cant access that new value its being set to

[mossy lynx]

wym

I mean like the script I js gave u that creates the bv is in a script

I just meant I have a local script to give myself the boolvalue so I can test it

but tahts not where its created

[regal salmon]

LocalScripts are exactly as they say, local
anything executed in these scripts will only apply to the client they were executed on (unless they have authority, for example, their character)
if you set the value of a BoolValue in a LocalScript, that change won't apply to the server, meaning your datastore script can't actually see the change and will use whatever it already has
you would have to use a RemoteEvent or just trigger the change entirely on the server for it to be saveable

[mossy lynx]

Ohhh

so I should do that to test it

[regal salmon]

yes, set it on the server

[mossy lynx]

is there any other way to make the bv true besides writing a script

[regal salmon]

you could switch to server view and set it manually through the explorer

https://create.roblox.com/docs/studio/testing-modes#toggle-clientserver

[pale laurel]

What are Lighting parameters in roblox studio to make 1990s anime graphics like this?

[covert locust]

is it posible to do sanity checks for qtes

without making the qte look laggy asf

[rocky lynx]

Bud

[somber vault]

Yeah

[static forum]

All cool bro I didn’t expect u to do it anyways lol I was just suggesting

[graceful berry]

https://gyazo.com/a6b6624c5be46996e1655e2ac63b35ef why Getmouse and getmouselocation dont have the same pos

[cosmic obsidian]

I dont exsactly know but i would guess the one is the screens position and the other one is the pos inside the window. but this is just a wild guess

[silver verge]

add guiservice:getinset to it

one is screen position, one is viewport position

[pale laurel]

bro what means yeah?

I mean what should be brightness and etc in lighting

to make it look like 1990s anime quality

[somber vault]

Mhm

[obtuse lodge]

Can someone help me on how to make a currency code

[proper violet]

more specific

[obtuse lodge]

Like a code that gives players money like steal a brainrot

THen a UI where it displays it

[proper violet]

oh if its for a sab-like game im not helping nvm

💔 💔 💔

[obtuse lodge]

ik this is wierd but what are sab-like games

[proper violet]

steal a barintotyororitor like games

[obtuse lodge]

like not exactly steal a brainrot which im tryna create but

steal a gun

[proper violet]

not helping, learn to make an actual game

[obtuse lodge]

Ive made army games and theyve failed 🥀

[lusty ingot]

yo just curious, what stuff is alright to keep local?

[proper violet]

anything that doesn't allow exploiting

[lusty ingot]

I know local scripts and such can be accessed with exploits/scripts, but to what extent should I put stuff on the server

[lusty ingot]

mk

[proper violet]

everything that is unexploitable should be on the client

[obtuse lodge]

if u say i should create a real game what should i create like that genre

[somber raft]

Maybe opposite? Client can be modified by the user

[static coral]

read that again

[somber raft]

I did

Nothing changed

[static coral]

everything that is unexploitable (not exploitable)

[somber raft]

Like what

Example?

[static coral]

vfx, playing sounds, gui

creating things that only the client will be able to see

[somber raft]

Oh right

Dngr r u a good scripter?

[static coral]

playing animations

[static coral]

idk

[somber raft]

How many month of experience

[static coral]

4 hours

[somber raft]

Bro what 😭

[static coral]

nah im playin

little over a year

[proper violet]

ok lets take everything important and exploitable and give client free reign over it, and then anything unexploitable lets put on the server and cause latency and protect it from something it doesn't need protection from

[somber raft]

Nah bro read,@dngr explained to me

[craggy gust]

?

[craggy gust]

Save it for better games in future.

[somber vault]

ya

[dapper orchid]

should i remake them or is there a easier fix

im new to ui design

i was at work so i appologies for the late response

[somber vault]

yo guys can someone explain me how could I fix this

always spawn the same box , rarity , mutation wth

[dapper orchid]

recode the way ur function works i can tell smth isnt coded well, maybe im in a diff game category but thats how i would do it

[somber vault]

but idk whats wrong in my script

[dapper orchid]

add debugs to check whats wrong and whats interfering with ur functions

[somber vault]

all my scripts are correct but always spawns the same shit box

[dapper orchid]

well make a function that prevents the same box types from spawning multiple times

[somber vault]

I dont think its a good idea but anyways

[dapper orchid]

well thats how it is, if u think thats a bad idea thats good since you know ur own scripts, find a way to fix it wether u do it threw debugging or rewriting the code its all your choice

[midnight geode]

skid

[dapper orchid]

heh

[sacred ore]

is it hard to hire someone to make smooth running and dash sytem? like the shooting game got *rivals

[dapper orchid]

its gonna cost you some money, it isnt hard to find someone who can do it but how much they want to be charged

[sacred ore]

well

how much like

around what?

in usd

[dapper orchid]

i cant tell you tbh

you can go around asking some professionals

[jovial crown]

Id say around 130 usd

[sacred ore]

cool

[mossy lynx]

130 is overpriced tf

[jovial crown]

Ur clearly jot a programme

[mossy lynx]

i am

new but I am

and sure its hard to make but not 130 dollars hard

[jovial crown]

value urself

[mossy lynx]

it would be like 30-40 at most

[jovial ivy]

Does this seem right?

[mossy lynx]

yo btw ur a scripter right

[jovial crown]

Yea

[mossy lynx]

alr

I js learned datastores

what should I go for next

[jovial ivy]

I fixed it up a bit does it seem right?

[jovial crown]

At 20bucks/hr hmmmmmm,nah

[mossy lynx]

130 is crazy for that bro

I would maike it for 40

[jovial crown]

20 bucks an Hr meaning its Done on 6.5hrs. The system has to Be smooth,competitive, polsihed

[mossy lynx]

bro im fried, my pc is at a stable 5-10% cpu usage but it keeps jumping to 100% and it lags and idk why plus roblox studio, roblox, and discord takes 4% at max

[jovial crown]

Ur not making a Good system Like That unless u undervalue

And im pretty sure u do not know how to make it either( no offense) since u jus learned datastores

[mossy lynx]

no ones paying 20 bucks per hour lol

[mossy lynx]

learning

I learned datastores in 10 mins

[jovial crown]

It ain't Hard?

[mossy lynx]

well I watched a video to grasp the concept of datastores which was 40 mins bcz datastores is like one of the only things that I couldnt uinderstand

[jovial crown]

Good developers di

[mossy lynx]

yeah ik but Im js saying I can learn stuff fast

[jovial crown]

[jovial crown]

I could in 5

[mossy lynx]

cool

[jovial crown]

Seasons,updateasync,getasync

Setasync*

Getstoreddatastoee

Getdatastore

[mossy lynx]

datastores r easy when u undersatnd it like mad easy but when u dont understand it, its rlly confusing

[jovial crown]

U can not not understand it

Its basics

[mossy lynx]

nah

I couldnt undersatnd it at first

what I had to do was watch a video so I learned the concept of it then I learned from chat gpt wrote a script and now I can write a script on my own

[jovial crown]

Ur not making the advanced movement system

[mossy lynx]

and dont make fun of me for using chat got

[jovial crown]

Im not joking

[mossy lynx]

I coukd

if I wanted

[jovial crown]

U couldnt

Stop kidding us

[mossy lynx]

could*

I dont got the knowlege rn cz i never tried learning but I could learn like I SAID

[jovial crown]

U couldnt

It requires practise

[mossy lynx]

[buoyant olive]

[jovial crown]

There is no tutorials

[mossy lynx]

[jovial crown]

People Hire Devs

Not leadners

[mossy lynx]

i dont care

Im js learning it later

[jovial crown]

They do It before accepting commisions

[mossy lynx]

never said anyone was goign to hire me, just saying I would do it for 40

I never said anything about that just saying I would do it for 40 like what

I would learn ikt and then do it

[jovial crown]

Problem is u couldnt do it bc u don't know how

[mossy lynx]

I COULD LEARN

u dont undersatnd or sum?

like what

[jovial crown]

Say the price after u do

[mossy lynx]

when u started scripting u didnt know stuff either

[jovial crown]

I could build u a house on 100 bucks

When? When I'll learn(never)

[mossy lynx]

ur actually dumb

dont get the point

[jovial crown]

U are

[mossy lynx]

the point is I would learn and do it for 40 not that someone will hire me or not the poi9nt is that 130 is too much

ur saying all of these othert stuff

not related at all

[jovial crown]

To say it u could do It at a price u gotta know how to make it

U can't set a price w out knowing how to make it

[mossy lynx]

i mean Ik what it is

how to do it

When i say how to do it not write it

just how it works ykwim

so Ik what priceb efore I learn how to write it

[jovial crown]

How it works?

I wanna Know how u figured out the anithack system 2

[sacred ocean]

ANY SCRIPTERS OR BUILDERS DM ME

[next compass]

guys, want to ask

how can i make a player drop their tools upon death? Roblox does not let my script get tools from their bagpack..

[mossy kayak]

Hey chat, do yall think the flowers look good or should I change smth?

[next compass]

maybe lower the triangles cuz UGC limits that (btw please ask this in the proper channel)

cuz this one is only for coding

[mossy kayak]

Oh mb

[next compass]

it's okay

[mossy kayak]

i thought that was modelling

sry gng

[next compass]

it's okayy!

[proper violet]

mini mod mini mod mini mod mini mod mini mod

[next compass]

i mean it would lag out most games

happened with a ugc that bypassed the triangle limit

[proper violet]

????

[frank crow]

can anyonne help me set up a UiListLayout for my custom inventory for my hotbar?

[proper violet]

it's pretty self explanatory

[mossy lynx]

if ur checking for the tools in their backpakc after they died, it prolly wont work cz the player is daed therse no tools u should prolly check if their health is 1 or lower maybe?? coulda sworn there was a setting for drop on death but maybe Im wrong

[next compass]

nvm someone helped me before

but thanks for responding! 🙂

[mossy lynx]
