• server replicates player state every change it does (and client incorporates that in its code ofc)
• client has full authority over movement (sprint, dash, mobility), and plays VFX for those locally while making the server replicate it for all other players
• client can "predict" their hit will happen by playing all of the VFX and animations and stuff immediately, and maybe also simulating the damage VFX/animations on other players/mobs depending on the hit
• you honestly can't do much about rollback netcode, roblox is very limited
  you're gonna have to give the client some level of authority for maximum UX

[upper hill]

and how much hour u give to learn in the day

[iron kraken]

10 thousand

[upper hill]

bro thinks he are a chinese student

[narrow rapids]

other games like TF2 do the 'predicting' with hits, if you've ever hit someone and heard the SFX and saw the VFX and then you die without registering

[gilded lava]

makes sense. i work as a cashier, so in my perspective having a job doing development is a big accomplishment

youre doing better off than me haha

[iron kraken]

cashier tuff

thats my problem icant make a project can u give me any idea, im in ep 10,advance

[coral tapir]

I am aware of the whole concept of replication and the structure what im not sure is how to make a proper framework thats scalable for big projects

Say i was to have hundrends of effects/abilities , the last thing i want is stutter or any kind of net trouble

[deft coral]

Ecs

[narrow rapids]

Net trouble do you mean like too much kbs?

[narrow rapids]

Ngl this isn't a bad option

For lots of similar data in mass

[tame ibex]

what part is confusing

[deft coral]

lol

[lunar mist]

Hello, i have spent about 3 weeks trying to script something and i just cannot do it, i am about to give up on my game unless someone can help. Im trying to make an item grapper, sort of like a reverse graple hook. It will shook out and pull items towards you. If anyone is willing to help please dm me, i can give you more info then, i really need help. Thanks

[deft coral]

go to code help and ask

dont ask to dm people

[tame ibex]

1. grapple exp lerp from hand to obj pos
2. on end lerp item to hrp, grapple is visual

easy

[lunar mist]

I know, its just not working for some reason, i cant figure it out

[tame ibex]

what’s the incentive if i help u

[lunar mist]

wdym

[tame ibex]

what do i get if i script it for u

robux?

[lunar mist]

I dont have much robux, i have like 1K including whats in pending. I will honestly do anything, if you need help with building or smth

i am at my last resort

[tame ibex]

relax

this is actually a difficult problem if u want a coiling springy grapple visual, too

it’s about 2k robux worth

[lunar mist]

I am just using a resized part

oh

I dont need the rope visual, just the base

[tame ibex]

1.95k robux

[lunar mist]

i can really only offer 1k, im sorry its all i have

[tame ibex]

i’ve got about 9 million

sorry

[lunar mist]

alr well thanks anyways ig

[limpid linden]

someone nice would help you for free

[lunar mist]

its alr

[tame ibex]

he’s trying to guilt trip people

[lunar mist]

no im not im just desperate, u dont need to help if u dont have time or if its not worth it

[tame ibex]

i’ve got about 40 million robux in my group

this was a bad year for profit

[lunar mist]

dude literally nobody cares, dont try and be the main charector

[tame ibex]

u failed the social experiment

[lunar mist]

bro

[tame ibex]

i would have helped u if u didnt

[limpid linden]

lol

lmao even

[lunar mist]

thats just not true

[regal salmon]

they really didn't
they told you what they could offer in robux and even offered to do extra work to pay it off
you chose to flaunt your higher wealth instead of politely rejecting it

[tame ibex]

aint reading allat

[regal salmon]

you are extremely entitled

[tame ibex]

are you his alt?

i knew it

how would he struggle on something so simple

u almost got me

[regal salmon]

no, but i am helping them

[tame ibex]

with

[regal salmon]

the grappling hook

[regal salmon]

not everyone knows how to script

[tame ibex]

i know

it’s easy

[regal salmon]

when you have enough experience it may seem easy, but to someone who's never done it before it's not exactly the most beginner-friendly experience

[tame ibex]

blah blah blah

[regal salmon]

Who can help me I’m a beginner scripter and I just made my first play GUI with a script but everytime I join the game it shows me falling down and not just me teleporting to the spawn point I’m made some checkpoints but idk why it’s not spawning me where the main checkpoint is it just completely broke and I wanna make it where I can’t move until I press the play button! pls help

[rose root]

hello goats

how do i make my UIStrokes consistent with a script

can a wise prophet show me the way

thanks

[grim bone]

Yes, well there are a few ways to do this.

First, in the Properties tab of the UIStroke there is a property called "StrokeSizingMode" here you have two options ScaledSize and FixedSize. Selecting ScaledSize will mean it will scale. To change this in the script you have to do:

UIStroke.StrokeSizingMode = Enum.StrokeSizingMode.ScaledSize

The second way is a bit less simple to implement but its implementing this script:

-- Made by @ItsCaelmYt
for _, v in pairs(script.Parent.Parent:GetDescendants()) do
if v:IsA("UIStroke") then
local BASE_SIZE = 1200
local uiStroke = v
local initialStrokeThickness = uiStroke.Thickness
local camera = game:GetService("Workspace").CurrentCamera

local function updateStrokeThickness()
uiStroke.Thickness = initialStrokeThickness * camera.ViewportSize.X / BASE_SIZE
end

camera:GetPropertyChangedSignal("ViewportSize"):Connect(updateStrokeThickness)
updateStrokeThickness()
end
end

where you customize the scale sized based on the size of the windows of your game

[rose root]

ahh, i will try that

[median siren]

what does applyimpulseatposition do?

[final walrus]

how can i detect if a TextButton inside a SurfaceUI is pressed

What is the difference between wait() and task.wait()

?

[valid torrent]

wait is deprecated in favor of task.wait as it is more performant

use task.wait

[rich token]

but it is doing the same thing

[valid torrent]

if you want to know why exactly task.wait is better you can google it. they both yield the current thread, task.wait just does it better

Anyone wanna help make a cashgrab for fun

[golden sun]

[somber vault]

you can have fun making it

im having somewhat fun making mine rn

I'm in desperate need, my data initialization just keeps skipping lines and its really really weird

Initialize

local function Initialize(plr: Player, profile: typeof(PlayerStore:StartSessionAsync()))
    print(profile)
    
    local leaderstats = Instance.new("Folder", plr)
    leaderstats.Name = "leaderstats"
    
    local aura = Instance.new("StringValue", leaderstats)
    aura.Name = "Aura"
    aura.Value = profile.Data.Aura
    
    if aura.Value ~= nil then
        aura.Value = Gigantix.getShort(Gigantix.stringToNumber(profile.Data.Aura))
    else
        aura.Value = "0"
    end
    
    local cash = Instance.new("StringValue", leaderstats)
    cash.Name = "Cash"
    cash.Value = profile.Data.Aura
    
    if cash.Value ~= "0" then
        cash.Value = Gigantix.getShort(Gigantix.stringToNumber(profile.Data.Cash))
    else
        cash.Value = "0"
    end
    
    print("Got Values", aura.Value, cash.Value)
    
    plr.PlayerGui.Base.Values.Aura.TextLabel.Text = ("Aura: ".. aura.Value)
    plr.PlayerGui.Base.Values.Cash.TextLabel.Text = ("Cash: ".. cash.Value)
    
    if Gigantix.isEquals(Gigantix.stringToNumber(profile.Data.Aura), {0}) then
        plr.PlayerGui.Base.Values.Aura.TextLabel.Text = ("Aura: 0")
    end
    if Gigantix.isEquals(Gigantix.stringToNumber(profile.Data.Cash), {0}) then
        plr.PlayerGui.Base.Values.Cash.TextLabel.Text = ("Cash: 0")
    end
    
    if profile.Data.GloveEquipped ~= "" then
        print(profile.Data.GloveEquipped)
        local newGlove = replicatedStorage.Gloves:FindFirstChild(profile.Data.GloveEquipped):Clone()
        newGlove.Parent = plr.Backpack
    else
        print(profile.Data.GloveEquipped)
    end
end

The leaderstats are fine, but the playerGUI text just doesnt update, and the glove never gets added to the backback, but rather doubles when i go in the shop to equip it!

PlayerAdded func

local function PlayerAdded(plr: Player)
    
    local profile = PlayerStore:StartSessionAsync("Player_".. plr.UserId, {
        Cancel = function()
            return plr.Parent ~= players
        end,
    })
    
    if profile ~= nil then
        
        profile:AddUserId(plr.UserId)
        profile:Reconcile()
        
        profile.OnSessionEnd:Connect(function()
            DataManager.Profiles[profile] = nil
            plr:Kick("Data error... Please rejoin bruther")
        end)
        
        if plr.Parent == players then
            
            DataManager.Profiles[plr] = profile
            Initialize(plr, profile)
            
        else
            profile:EndSession()
        end
        
    else
        plr:Kick("Data error... Please rejoin my brutha")
    end
end

[regal salmon]

have you done any debugging?

[somber vault]

yes

[regal salmon]

like adding prints in different places to see if its reaching those points

[somber vault]

yeah, but it works perfectly in studio but not in the real game

[regal salmon]

where does it reach in the real game?

[somber vault]

how do i check that

press F9 in-game and click server

[remote quail]

Quick dev question out of curiosity: for Roblox devs here, roughly speaking, how much time / budget would a large-scale roguelite dungeon crawler (Archero-inspired) take, with a complex combat system, full inventory & menu systems, progression, gacha, and UI-heavy features, ... basically a full project?
Just looking for some estimates, thanks

[drowsy hemlock]

You can do it with 400K.

[remote quail]

so with 1k USD - 1k5 i should be good then good to know

[drowsy hemlock]

Yes, if you can go higher then better.

And the time depends on how good your manager is.

task.wait()

make this perf faster

99% of people fail this

[deft coral]

delete task.wait()

[tame ibex]

flush gc

i had code before it

[deft coral]

That isnt how that works tho i dont think

[tame ibex]

it alleviates

[deft coral]

Gc isnt guaranteed

[tame ibex]

i know

[deft coral]

Kk

[deft coral]

I was shit-posting anyway my instinct is to pool the loop

also maybe not use an array but it depends on the endgoal of the code problem

a hash would b better

[tame ibex]

loop backwards from n so u avoid couner

[limpid linden]

or do t[i] = i

[deft coral]

ehhhhh

[deft coral]

yeah true though i assumed c was in case we wanted to change the loop dramatically

but ur valid

[tame ibex]

use a while loop in the loop

u will make it faster

then task.wait at the end

[tame ibex]

u will have access to more internal optimisations

wtf

[limpid linden]

none of this matters if this is only being run once

[tame ibex]

when do they look at apps

[strong spire]

Wanna make a cash grab with me ?

[stiff saddle]

Wsppp chat sry I was not able to chat today

[opaque nova]

guys

any tips on how to learn frontend ?

like I wanna animate ui button and stuffs like that

tweens

but I can't find any good videos

[trail obsidian]

you just need to tweens and that's really it

[trail obsidian]

go through the tween documentation and do multiple simple experiments with some Uis

[opaque nova]

alr thanks

[trail obsidian]

anytime

[opaque nova]

so scripting is like 90% only practicing

you can't just learn and apply it right after u learn it

[trail obsidian]

yes ofc you need to know how to script

[opaque nova]

that's nice

[empty jay]

dont rely just on videos

use the roblox documentation if needed

[fair topaz]

yo scripting is js logic

syntax is easy

if yoy know the logic you can cook anything

even if you only know math and physics

you r already 90% done

[lyric geyser]

the thing with programming is you need to be able to understand which tools you need to get to your goal

[fair topaz]

yeah fr

and there are many

tbats why its fun

and if you like messing with it, C and C++ r perfect

[tawdry socket]

Which c++ u use

[lyric geyser]

if you want to implement X functionality what do you need to achieve that? what functions do you need to write how should they look like? what does the engine provide to help you achieve what you need? structuring code etc

[tame ibex]

blah blah blah

[fair topaz]

i lwkey hate using c++ but if you know ehat you r doing its fun

[tawdry socket]

Ye i was about to say

Nobody likes using c++

[fair topaz]

And c is for the crazy people that like low level shit

[tawdry socket]

C is fun but c++ below like c++ 20 gives brain damage

[lyric geyser]

just start with wtvr language you want it doesnt even matter really

[fair topaz]

C++ cancer ong

[tawdry socket]

Language doesnt matter when youre starting out

Just pick something you want to make and make it

[fair topaz]

fr

[lyric geyser]

C is not something you should learn to code on most languages you will use will not be like C

[fair topaz]

c is for crazy people

[tawdry socket]

C is a good starting language if what you want to do is lower level or embedded

Its a perfect starting language for that

[fair topaz]

the only thing i used c++ and c for was a 3d graphic engine (never doing it again)

my brain never recovered

[lyric geyser]

if thats what you want to do this is the wrong community to be a part of

[tawdry socket]

Make a graphics engine so that you know that you dont want to make a graphics engine

[fair topaz]

dont do i5

the math haunts me to this day

and i was using glfw, the "easiest" library

[tawdry socket]

I mean id argue that knowing C is good for working on certain things in luau like serdes and networking architecture because a lot of concepts and practices transfer over

But its not necessary to spend a lot of time in c if you just want to do roblox things

[fair topaz]

yeah roblox is different

once you grasp the API you r done

you can only optimize

but once you can do actual games, your work is done

and id argue that scripting is easy js takes time

[lyric geyser]

programming in a game engine is also entirely diff

[fair topaz]

oh yeah fr

anyways are promises actually used in devving or are they just some unknown useless feature?

[snow roost]

Anyone know how to hide teams from the leaderboard without disabling the leaderboard?

[lyric geyser]

on my last job I was extending an api for a program the company was developing and that is an entirely diff world to working with a game engine

[wanton cloud]

It depends on what you're coding

[fair topaz]

it is for 99.9% games

all front page games are the same

scripting is the least of your problems

whether it is efficient or not

[valid torrent]

luau api is quite easy to learn imo

[fair topaz]

yeah exactly

[valid torrent]

that doesnt mean ur code will be good tho

[fair topaz]

i mean

as long as yoy can keep working

doesnt rlly matter

[valid torrent]

depends what you're tryna do but

[fair topaz]

but if you need to utilize frameworks like profilingservice or knit

[valid torrent]

most roblox stuff isn't very complicated anyways

especially with the slop that front page is nowadays

[fair topaz]

i always try to keep code related stuff organized

cuz seeing way too much stuff demotivates me for some reason

[lyric geyser]

I don't even like the roblox engine tbh it feels like it has no direction and the nesting of all the default components is dogshit

[fair topaz]

good for the cash

aint nun making their dream game on roblox

[lyric geyser]

ain't nun making the money they should on roblox either

[valid torrent]

Nah steal a brainrot is the most peak you'll ever see

trust

[fair topaz]

investment

[fair topaz]

ong

[lyric geyser]

lots of talented ppl on roblox they are just in the wrong place you need starting capital to actually make any considerable money on this platform and you need to screw over a lot of ppl in the process

[fair topaz]

dawg

you can work minimum wage

for 1 month

and make enough capital to start

Actually more than enough

[soft fern]

you can live off comms tho right?

[lyric geyser]

yeah and hire some kids you can exploit to do shit for u and bag all the money

that's not it for me

[lyric geyser]

if you have the connections for sure else you will be making money to live well in 3rd world countries

[fair topaz]

ts is worse than anarchy

[valid torrent]

I dont think so unless you are getting some insane comms

[fair topaz]

its laissez faire

pure capitalism

[lyric geyser]

literally

[fair topaz]

roblox is the pure definition of capitalism

[soft fern]

yhh its pretty calm income for a 3rd world country

[lyric geyser]

I could never do that to these kids roblox is too predatory I like to think I have some morals

[soft fern]

ill start scripting comms soon.....not creative enough for graphic design and ui😔

[fair topaz]

i mean

You could pay them generously

[lyric geyser]

have u seen all those indonesian games why do you think they are fine with developing on roblox lmao it's decent money for them

[fair topaz]

im pretty sure they r like cooked since no one in 2nd or 3rd world countries spends money

[lyric geyser]

like from my perspective I make decent money in an actual job more than I would ever make on roblox as a dev

traditional dev jobs are still the way to go

if you lack morals tho you can make a lot of money on roblox

by leeching off all the kids that think 4000 robux is worth their time and effort

[valid torrent]

4000 robux 🥀

[fair topaz]

good if you cant get a job and are a capitalidt

ts is like london in 1856

[weary frost]

ehhhhhhhhhhh ahhhhhhhhhhhhh

can someone help

[empty jay]

hi

[empty jay]

yes

[soft fern]

where do you find normal dev jobs tho?.....fiver?

[empty jay]

help someone can

[wanton cloud]

you gotta fill out a job application

[lyric geyser]

what are you looking for?

backend, frontend? do you want to work on apis do you want to work with data lots of diff stuff

also indie games are popping off why not try godot

[soft fern]

thought of that.....ill do that later on in life.....for now im just in the godot discord server lol

[lyric geyser]

lots of successful games promote themselves exclusively on tiktok

[lyric geyser]

building experience now will help you a lot later on too

[soft fern]

will prolly go into backend,frontend is like the ui right?

[lyric geyser]

frontend can be a bunch of stuff

[soft fern]

yhh stuff like this rlly helps thats why im learning coding.....cus if i dont make money from it i at least learned a new skill

[lyric geyser]

UI is not all you need to integrate APIs if you are working on an interface for a program lots of working with and transforming data

[soft fern]

oh alright

which do you do

[lyric geyser]

I work on backend stuff maintaining and extending apis

working with databases creating databases stuff like this

stuff the user doesn't necessarily see

C# is a very good language to start with for traditional programming

lots of companies use azure devops working in a scrum model

[weary frost]

how to make moveset?

moveset fighting

[empty jay]

idk

[weary frost]

UnUsefull

[empty jay]

thank you

[empty jay]

says the one that cant make a moveset

unuseful

[soft fern]

which programming language do you main tho?

[lyric geyser]

C# like I said lots of companies work within the microsoft environment

ASP.NET would be the API framework for it for example

the whole .NET ecosystem

[tawdry socket]

C# is a good language

Lots of stuff to learn with and actually applicable to get a job

[lyric geyser]

you can not go wrong with C#

[soft fern]

oh alright will prolly understand this more when i learn more

add me back btw

[lyric geyser]

lots of actual jobs to find working with this language

[soft fern]

im starting with python and lua mainly for money cus im saving up for a thinkpad

so ill do scripting comms

[lyric geyser]

python is very strong

[lyric geyser]

value your work on roblox a lot of ppl will try to take advantage of you

if this is your only option at least make the most of it

[soft fern]

alright man

[lyric geyser]

also I really mean it when I say look into indie game development outside roblox

indie games are popping off

[soft fern]

yhh like the 2d ones with pixel graphics on steam?

btw will you make one?

[soft fern]

and btw do you know any other options?

[lyric geyser]

to make money?

idk what country you live in but probably getting a part time job or mini job would do a lot more for you

if you think abt money / hour no roblox commision will ever give u any significant amount of money without connections

you have to realize most people on roblox are also teenagers to early adults they themselves do not want to pay people fairly its the entire business model

to make young people that aspire to be devs put in hours for a shitty pay

I mean all you need is to look at these commissions on this discord

make an entire game in 3 weeks for 1200 dollars

that might be worth it for people in countries where wages are very low

but in any respectable country you should not give this the time of day

[narrow rapids]

lowk you should

[lyric geyser]

it rubs me the wrong way seeing all you guys tryna save up for shit having to work literally indian factory worker wages on roblox you can do better than this

[tawdry socket]

Do not get into roblox development for money its not worth it there's so many other things that make way more money and take way less time to learn

[lyric geyser]

exactly

if you want a playground to develop your overall skills with an engine where you have lots of assets available sure

roblox is fine

by the time you guys finish school hopefully the tech job market will not be as shit as it is rn too

I know a bunch of guys with unis finished that are struggling to find a job in tech rn

[fickle python]

like making furry vr char avatars

anyways my code is not erroring and it's not working either hell yeah

lemme add a gazillion prints

[soft fern]

like what thoo?

[soft fern]

i cant do that

cus of my country ofc

and im looking for like $350

scripting could prolly bring in the amnt i need right?

[coarse rose]

guys i need help

[fading ermine]

with

[coarse rose]

can u call?

[fading ermine]

i dont have a mic

[coarse rose]

oh

[fading ermine]

like what

[coarse rose]

well basicly i want to make a rotatable object so when you move your mouse it would rotate it based on the cameras rotation. heres what i have but this is rotating by the local rotation of the object not the camera Inspect.CFrame = CFrame.Angles(math.rad(Input.Position.Y-LastMousePos.Y),math.rad(Input.Position.X-LastMousePos.X),0)

[tawdry socket]

If youre west coast flipping burgers will pay more than roblox dev

[fading ermine]

you gotta take in account alot of people are teenagers and nobady is gonna hire them

[sinful bay]

anyone fimilar with datastore

[fading ermine]

ye

[fading ermine]

dosent work i figure

[tawdry socket]

Oh if youre below the legal age of employment then you can do whatever you want to earn a little bit of money it doesnt really matter

[coarse rose]

like i said it rotates oon local of part not camera

[tawdry socket]

But plenty of places hire 15 year olds in the usa

[fading ermine]

u also gotta take in account everyone goes to school

and none really wants to flip burgers

[tawdry socket]

When I was in high school almost everyone i knew had a part time job of some sort

[sinful bay]

so you are fimiliar

[fading ermine]

yea

[fading ermine]

hmmm

[sinful bay]

wanna work on a jjk project with me and my friend we have a lot of

[fading ermine]

bro did u not see my pfp

like sign me up rn

[fading ermine]

so like what yall need

[fading ermine]

rotate using CAMERA AXES

use this instead

CFrame.fromAxisAngle(camera.CFrame.RightVector, angle)

and change the stuff

ur code rotates it from its own axes

[sinful bay]

you got a portfolio

[fading ermine]

dms

[sinful bay]

were ingame rn actually tresting and stuff

[fading ermine]

what yall need

ill tell u if i can do it

[sinful bay]

fixes on datastore and big fixees

[fading ermine]

so is ur datastore already coded?

[sinful bay]

ye

we need help fixing bugs and stuff

[sinful halo]

How do i go on mobile view so i can see how uis l0ook? i can't find this feature in this new ui update

[fading ermine]

there should be a mobile test option

[tawdry socket]

click Test in the top left, there should be an option that says Device Emulator click it and it will bring up the options menu for which screen and device to emulate

if it's grayed out switch back to the workspace view instead of having a script open

[cobalt yoke]

yall rate the hitbox

its server sided

[tawdry socket]

yo thats nice good job

[old cypress]

anyone has postman experience lmk

[twin cairn]

Are you testing in studio?

[cobalt yoke]

yeah

havnt done the ping diff yet

[twin cairn]

Studio is hosted locally so Server - Client latency will always be really low.

You don't actually communicate with a rblx server, you communicate with your own router which is much faster for you.

[brave cairn]

Hiring or looking for work in channels isn't allowed, see [#rules](#rules message)

[lost mauve]

trying to implement a batched table approach in a collect incremental game is confusing for me would i be fine if i just sent over each individual collect to the server without performance taking a huge hit

[tacit echo]

whenever i change the walk and run animation ID it just doesnt animate it

[burnt girder]

Can smbd tell mr where can i learn coding

[tawdry socket]

if u r talking about roblox dev, think of something u wanna make, open roblox studio, think about what all goes into making that thing work, if its a game, what mechanics are there, once u think of a mechanic, think about whats needed to make that mechanic

once u have thought of the stuff needed to make a mechanic, think of a very simple version of it with less features and then try to google and youtube around for a tutorial that shows how to make it, follow the tutorial and pay attention to the syntax

write along with the tutorial, if you encounter errors, google the errors and see why there's an error, you'll get a lot of errors at first but trust me you want to see the errors right now because once you know what the error means you know how to solve it

do this for different mechanics and features and you'll basically have learned how to think like a problem solver and know the luau programming language enough to make some simple to moderate stuff

[burnt girder]

Uo bro

Can we dm

@tawdry socket

[tawdry socket]

i mean i can but like when you are trying to learn coding u should spend the first few days on your own trying to figure stuff out before you ask others because you need to first develop the trouble shooting skills of googling what the error is and how to do stuff

only once you have the basics down does it make sense to start asking for help imo because then you'll have a good idea of what's not just a simple google search away

[frozen spire]

perhaps youtube but i dont really recommend that, you could search for websites teaching lua and read them and follow them in studio, lua is a really easy language to get along with due to it's beginner friendly syntax like javascript

[burnt girder]

Ty broski

[tawdry socket]

if you watch video tutorials only watch a few at most

[burnt girder]

K

[tawdry socket]

they are really only for the absolute beginning couple days

[burnt girder]

How do u type that fast

[tawdry socket]

too many years of using a computer

[frozen spire]

hes on discord 24/7 he got experience

[burnt girder]

Lol

[tawdry socket]

lol i used to be like 5 years ago

[burnt girder]

I love coding

[tawdry socket]

i got good at typing by playing roblox as a kid

[burnt girder]

But i didnt know how to learned it 😉

[tawdry socket]

playing kingdom life in 2010

[frozen spire]

im doing it now, i got nothing better to do except stalking on discord, making anticheat and making webs 😭

[tawdry socket]

goated game

[tawdry socket]

anticheat nice

do u work on any named ac solutions

[errant zinc]

Real

[burnt girder]

Tu very much

How did u start it @tawdry socket

Coding

[tawdry socket]

i started coding about a year and a half ago, i wanted to make a lightsaber dueling game and i spent all the time over the summer where i wasnt working or doing university research working on roblox coding lmao

[burnt girder]

Lollll

[tawdry socket]

after about 3 months i was able to make decent games and after about 6 months i branched out to actual programming with C# and C++

[frozen spire]

nah, i do it for fun, maybe sell it one day

[burnt girder]

U learn too much

Ok im go washing

See ya

[tawdry socket]

ac devs can make pretty good money i know a couple guys who work on some named anticheat solutions in larger games and they get paid a couple grand to just insert a file into a game

[frozen spire]

yeah i know, was thinking about making a competent anticheat for minecraft but honestly java is just not for me, i got hired as staff at a pretty known client-sided anticheat solution and i also didnt liked that so now im just making one for roblox lmao

its easy and i somewhat enjoy it, or atleast the parts where i dont have to fix 426524 false flags

because one detection set catches multiple cheat modules

and for the love of God i cant separate them 😭

[real fulcrum]

URGENT : i'm looking for a decent scripter to make a poison candy game ! needs to be done right now (i'll pay)

[tawdry socket]

yea the guys i know literally have memorized the different characteristics of roblox exploit tools and they know the quirks of them to detect when one is being used

like how namecall behavior changes when chocosploit injects namespace changes

[frozen spire]

i mean detecting roblox exploits isnt that hard, or atleast for me since i was also around in the cheating scene for years and developed so called executors for myself since i couldnt get myself to download some shady ones from online, but honestly im just aiming at detecting modules the best I can, finding out quirks about cheats like what they modify about the game is just too much of a hustle for me 😭

at the end of the day both anticheat's job is to prevent cheating

at some point i also gaved a shot at making a client sided anticheat like yk making a modified bloxstrap or what its called and then making the anticheat built in

because server sided ones are very limited

but i gaved up on that idea since if its only in usermode then it has very limited options in detecting cheats on the user's computer

and i cant do kernel

my friend can, but understandably doesnt want to spoon feed me and hes insisting that i should start learning but idek where to start 😭 so i just dont

[open sparrow]

how to fix this? charcter is above the ground on steep terrain

[tawdry socket]

yoo thats sick i really like your camera implementation

[zenith depot]

does someone know how to make a app

[tawdry ice]

took 3 years bro 😭

it just follows head rotation

and i added some spring to it

eg when land

[tawdry socket]

whenever i try to make smooth camera the character just visually stutters

prerender and renderstepped cannot save me lmao

[tawdry ice]

function CameraModule:Step(DeltaTime)
if Player.Character then
self.Character = Player.Character
self.Head = Player.Character:FindFirstChild("Head")
self.RootPart = Player.Character:FindFirstChild("HumanoidRootPart")
self.Humanoid = Player.Character:FindFirstChild("Humanoid")
if not self.Head then return end
self.NewCFrame = self.Head.CFrame:ToObjectSpace(self.RootPart.CFrame)
if self.OldCFrame then
local ,,z = self.NewCFrame:ToOrientation()
local x,y,_ = self.NewCFrame:ToObjectSpace(self.OldCFrame):ToEulerAnglesXYZ()

        self.SmoothCFrame = self.SmoothCFrame:Lerp(CFrame.new(x * self.RotationMult.X,y * self.RotationMult.Y,z * self.RotationMult.Z), lerpnum)    

        self.Camera.CFrame = self.Camera.CFrame * CFrame.Angles(self.SmoothCFrame.X,self.SmoothCFrame.Y, -self.SmoothCFrame.Z)
    end

    self.OldCFrame = self.NewCFrame
    
    CameraModule:ShowCharacter()
    CameraModule:UpdatePos(DeltaTime)
end

end

function CameraModule:UpdatePos(Delta : number)
if self.Head and self.Camera and self.RootPart then
local Relative = self.RootPart.CFrame:PointToObjectSpace(self.Head.Position)
CameraModule.HeadOffset = CameraModule.HeadOffset:Lerp(Relative, 0.1)
local x,, = CameraModule.Camera.CFrame:ToOrientation()

    CameraModule.BaseOffset = CameraModule.BaseOffset:Lerp(Vector3.new(0,math.clamp(x, -1.5, 1),0), 0.1)    


    self.Humanoid.CameraOffset = CameraModule.HeadOffset + CameraModule.BaseOffset + CameraModule.CamOffset


end

end

this is mine

[tawdry ice]

oh yeah

that happens to me aswell

[tawdry socket]

what step do you run it on

oh do you still have the stutter

[tawdry ice]

its better to turn off autorotate in the humanoid and make custom one

[tawdry ice]

renderstep

[tawdry socket]

mmm autorotate i havent thought of that

my camera is a third person lock-on camera

inspired by For Honor's camera system

but i imagine that first person would still get that awful stuttering look on the character

[tawdry ice]

yes

[tawdry socket]

do u still have it or is autorotate what causes it

[tawdry ice]

idek

[tawdry socket]

because honestly it would make sense that autorotate causes it

[tawdry ice]

its prob smth to do with first person

[tawdry socket]

nah it happens on third person camera too

mine isnt first person

its third

[tawdry ice]

locked cameras

like shiftlock

[tawdry socket]

oh locked

[tawdry ice]

ive fixed it once

but i delted the code

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/1183308081803833374/1455507730449174631/IMG_2901.gif

[tawdry socket]

well i think a camera that stays in the same position relative to the character wouldnt have the stuttering

when i spring move the camera then i get the stuttering

[tawdry ice]

idk

[tawdry socket]

but i think its because of desync between the renderstep and character movement steps in runservice

makes it every so slightly off by a small amount every frame

[tawdry trout]

Yall what are the best vids that go over like niche scripting tips that are actually helpful

[tawdry socket]

videos by suphi kaner do a pretty good job at covering a specific topic in pretty good depth

but tbh i think that just thinking of something to make then trying to make that thing will give a lot of exposure at a decent level of depth for a variety of topics

[tired socket]

Anyone know how to make the roblox ball faster

[orchid blaze]

Guys can someone help me understand events

local partIsTouched = false

touchpart.Touched:Connect(function(otherPart)
    if partIsTouched == false then
        partIsTouched = true    
        print(otherPart.Name)
        
        task.wait(2)
        partIsTouched = false
    end
end)```

[tame ibex]

vector.zero isn't fastcalled

[broken grove]

what do you not understand about them

what

not necessarily a value changing

[balmy sorrel]

a reusable piece of code

[broken grove]

just any game event

functions are a block of code that can be triggered with a function call

and can have arguments passed to change what they do

and then can also return a value if necessary

they asked about events though

[upbeat jungle]

yo how do i make shiftlock control

[fickle python]

i gotta code a time machine ggs

the server looks clean and smooth but the client is so fucked due to the split second delays

[tawdry socket]

yo thats sick

ty but that shit got me balding

[tawdry socket]

is the client mispredicting and the visuals arent resimulating correctly?

guys i've been hearing a lot about not doing raycasts on server and i just wanted to know if this script is vunerable to any exploits

[quaint thunder]

im making an oop based tree chopping system, does anyone have suggestions for the features i could add?

[grand bloom]

What software is that

[empty jay]

VS code

[grand bloom]

Are you able to use it for Roblox?

[empty jay]

yes

using a plugin

[grand bloom]

Which?

Is there a tutorial or something?

[empty jay]

Rojo

plenty

[grand bloom]

Thanks bro

[empty jay]

colorful axe

[empty jay]

someone tell me if this is buns or alright

plez

[dark flame]

I've heard plenty of people say that roblox-ts is so much better and blah blah blah, is it actually worth using or is it just overglazing?

[empty jay]

what is roblox ts

[dark flame]

roblox typescript

[empty jay]

idk

[quaint thunder]

it's vs code

[quaint thunder]

lol bet

[dark flame]

its so weird, some people say its better some say its worse

[fickle python]

movement code is a physics system spread out across a bunch of module scripts

I'm assuming by parallels you mean like, running a predictive algorithm on both the client and the server?

actually i could try making an interpolation buffer and showing the client a delayed recording

[lime gyro]

Just use actors so the code run on more than one core

[fickle python]

it all sounds too annoying i got like one failed Algorithms class worth of experience imma just ditch multiplayer and run everything on the client 🔥

[lime gyro]

where to allow api access in the new studio ui

[winter falcon]

does someone know how to code quests and dialouge

[tawdry socket]

if u already know typescript and you know it well then rbx-ts will probably let you write code faster

but if you know luau very well and arent experienced with typescript then it probably wont be a more efficient tool

still useful to learn typescript though

and its pretty cool

[winter falcon]

does someone know how to code quests and dialouge or a tutorial that has helped u

[plush badge]

why is Vs code so useful

[fickle python]

it's just proper coding software

has alot of useful features

[plush badge]

like what

[fickle python]

plus copilot is miles above the roblox AI

[plush badge]

ooo

[fickle python]

like a gazillion shortcuts if you are a true crackhead

lets you code stupid fast

I don't have the hand coordination for it

[plush badge]

does it fix bugs

for me

[fickle python]

no lol

[plush badge]

fawk

[fickle python]

it warns you though

[plush badge]

does it tells me what i should do instead

[fickle python]

and github copilot will warn you about logic errors

[fickle python]

base VScode no it will just tell you what the issue is kinda like how when you run code on roblox studio and it gives you an error message

[plush badge]

ooo

[fickle python]

only difference that you don't gotta run the code

if you have the github copilot extension

it will probably give suggestions on how to fix it

[plush badge]

yeah thats what i need

i be doing alot if errors

ima cop it

tyy

[fickle python]

np

[orchid blaze]

meaning

wtf are you trying to say

[flat whale]

Are u a scripter

[orchid blaze]

yeah

[orchid blaze]

if u say could I hire u then no

[flat whale]

Ah ok

[neon bolt]

yo when would u use modules in ur code?

i know like the fundamentals of oop but i’m lowk confused when u would use it

[lime gyro]

When you feel like you gonna do this more than once then use a module

It's like a bigger function that's it

It's commonly used in handlers tho

[neon bolt]

ahhh alright thank you

yea i’ve seen i js never understood it

[frail fox]

I need to make custom script animation stuff where should I look to get started

[frail fox]

like #code-discussion message

[dawn arch]

im new to coding, and i wanted an opinion from someone experienced. what would you say is the most effective way i can learn to script as a beginner?

[dreamy apex]

for me personally, i learnt it through youtube tutorials (mostly to get the hang of the logic) and reading through the roblox developer hub and watching some of the videos on there

[hoary cedar]

Stick to a server like this. You won't learn anything more fresh

[dawn arch]

alright thank you. ive watched a few videos, so ill continue doing that. ill also check out the dev hub.

[dawn arch]

thanks, i havent explored much of it yet, but so far i am seeing some helpful stuff in here.

[dreamy apex]

and definitely dont be afraid to ask people for help on things, i recommend posting here or on the roblox devforum for assistance or advice

[dawn arch]

okay, i will. i see people asking for help on specific things in here, and i can see thatll be me soon, when i eventually start to grasp more about scripting.

[unkempt comet]

Is it okay for me to advertise hre?

[limpid linden]

i'm not particularly experienced but this server has a big bullying problem cuz the average age is about 15. i recommend that, if you know what to ask, use ai since its is very powerful for learning how to code

[dawn arch]

cool idea. i never thought of ai as a learning tool for scripting. im willing to try it out.

[gusty elm]

You gotta watch YouTube tutorials. If you want, have AI explain more concepts like ray tracing, module scripts, or literally anything. I’m also open to helping people.

[gusty elm]

if you mean how to teleport them to a different server you gotta use TeleportService and teleport them to a reserved private server. Check the roblox docs (TeleportService/TeleportToPrivateServer)

[thorn sigil]

OHHHHH that makes a shit ton of sense. i have another question tho because i created a rigged model how do i make it so when the players go into the designated booths one of them turns into the rigged model?

[frozen gazelle]

local game = game

[regal salmon]

player.Character = model

[thorn sigil]

tysm

[jolly spruce]

Is there a way to move the hole model without having to copy every single one of the parts and buttons like just copy the model and place it in the tycoon

[icy bone]

Why are you doing a debounce AND a cooldown

[somber vault]

Seperate Debounce for while the effect is on, and cooldown between effects

[regal salmon]

group them all as a model

and if youre doing it in a script, set a primary part for that model and use :SetPrimaryPartCFrame or :PivotTo to position it

[burnt girder]

Anyone can tell me some server who are like this server

I need a job 😭😭

he hasn't scammed you, he just has high prices

just means he's less likely to get sales

[sour jetty]

mr. obvious how are you I missed you

[regal salmon]

i've been quite well, thank you 😊

[regal salmon]

it already has

[sour jetty]

the crazy thing is that are his prices on the post

so what made him to charge 50 pounds

[regal salmon]

💀

[sour jetty]

I JUST REALIZED HE SAID "MIN 50"

HAHAHAHAHAHAH

[hollow breach]

yo is there any way to not make the player teleport while scaling him (ToScale) on the server?

vid not mine

[sour jetty]

is the parts like food and when you eat them you get bigger?

[hollow breach]

ye

its not me who made the vid but i wanna do something similar

not player character tho its custom rig

[sour jetty]

why does he even glitch like when he touches them he should just get bigger

not lag and go back

I need to see the script

otherwise its not possible to tell you

[hollow breach]

its just using ScaleTo(number) on the server

when u do that on the client it doesnt lag

only solution ik rn is that just do it in everyone's client but then idk how to make hitboxes work on server then

[sour jetty]

this should be on client side anyways

[hollow breach]

then how do i use hitboxes on the server? if the size is client

[sour jetty]

each client sees what part they eat you dont need to have parts that everyone can have access to

so there are 2 players

player1 eats like 5 parts and he sees 10 left player2 doesnt see 10 left he sees all parts which is 15 parts since he didnt eat them

[hollow breach]

its not that

its seeing the size of the other player

[sour jetty]

then you just gotta do it very optimized and well on the server script so its not messy

thats the only way i guess

[hollow breach]

i tried changing the size of every part of the player's character on the server but it still does it

[sour jetty]

that makes it worse

why you dont just scale simply

by changing the scale value

I mean some kind of delay will definitely happen but still better than changing all parts manually

this

when you click the model

and look in properties

just add like very small amount of value as example +0.01 or +0.1

[frozen spire]

anyone knows how much time does roblox need to verify my game? it only got a small code in it about 1k lines only 😭

[sour jetty]

so you dont get instantly big

[civic garnet]

replicate scale to the server

also :ScaleTo exists on the character itself

[hollow breach]

thats ScaleTo()

[modern seal]

js a guess but mayb have a ScaleTo value nn have th scale slowly scale up likee 0.1 to whatever ScaleTo isss >,>

[hollow breach]

lags the player

[modern seal]

sso itss likeee less scale less noticable

idunnurr js a guess

[inland agate]

he just doesnt like to do cheap work nothing crazy

so if you want him to script smthn he takes 50 min

[modern seal]

minimum

[sour jetty]

it is something crazy

you cant save this bro

[hollow breach]

i tried that and it did the absolute same

[modern seal]

what wass th tool abt o,o

[sour jetty]

slap tool literaly

[civic garnet]

they might be charging per hour

[modern seal]

snap tool ?

whts

[sour jetty]

slap*

[modern seal]

Ouuu

[inland agate]

why do you want someone to script you a slap tool

just get one from the toolbox?

[sour jetty]

they all bad

[inland agate]

did you find someone to make it for you?

[sour jetty]

no

[modern seal]

a slap tool is interesting iveee never worked ww ragdolls b4 >,>

[civic garnet]

youd want to do something on the client then replicate it to the server so the other clients can see it

[inland agate]

how much are you paying?

[sour jetty]

are you interested if yes dm me simply

[civic garnet]

how much would u even pay for the slap tool

[frosty ferry]

how do you do the new group prompt

the thing to prompt someone to join ur group within the game

[civic garnet]

GroupService:PromptJoinAsync(groupId) on the client

[frosty ferry]

appreciate it

[smoky pasture]

finally got my scripts to match and data save inventory

dang

after 5hrs-

[exotic helm]

👏

[loud ravine]

whats the best free anticheat?

[soft fern]

is it a comm or you making a game?

[smoky pasture]

making a game

with a friend i met like 18hrs ago

[soft fern]

cool....whats it about?

[smoky pasture]

buy brick sell brick

u get a chance to get better brick

like

theres a chance u get a better brick#

[soft fern]

oh alright

[smoky pasture]

like a mystery brick

the lunarastromal or sum brick

is 1 in 10m

[soft fern]

woah

[smoky pasture]

so like

yea

[soft fern]

the player base will be like little kids right?

[smoky pasture]

no

base?

wym its not steal a brainrot type game

[soft fern]

like the type of ppl who play

[smoky pasture]

uh it depends

im still making it

[soft fern]

oh alright thats good

[smoky pasture]

started 20 hrs ago

[smoky pasture]

ik

its basically a loop but the co owner said add minigames to get special bricks

BrickData.Bricks = {
{Name="Common Brick", Rarity="Common", Price=10, Chance=nil},
{Name="Rust Brick", Rarity="Common", Price=12, Chance=nil},
{Name="Trap Brick", Rarity="Uncommon", Price=25, Chance=nil},
{Name="Healing Brick", Rarity="Uncommon", Price=30, Chance=nil},
{Name="Toxic Slime Brick", Rarity="Rare", Price=50, Chance=nil},
{Name="Soundwave Brick", Rarity="Rare", Price=55, Chance=nil},
{Name="Phantom Brick", Rarity="Epic", Price=100, Chance=nil},

{Name="Final Brick", Rarity="Mythic", Price=nil, Chance=4000000},
{Name="God Brick", Rarity="Mythic", Price=nil, Chance=6000000},
{Name="Secret Brick", Rarity="Secret", Price=nil, Chance=8000000},
{Name="THE Brick", Rarity="Secret", Price=nil, Chance=9000000},
{Name="V.I.P Brick", Rarity="Exclusive", Price=nil, Chance=9500000},
{Name="Christmas Brick", Rarity="Exclusive", Price=nil, Chance=9700000},
{Name="Halloween Brick", Rarity="Exclusive", Price=nil, Chance=9900000},
{Name="LUNIGHTALARAS", Rarity="???", Price=nil, Chance=10000000}
}

yea thats the chunk of all the bricks

worst prices ever

imma make the map in a min

the chances that are nil are like u cant get them by buying the bricks but hte nil prices u can only get by either being an admin [ not added yet] or by getting them through the chances to get it

so like

u cant sell them yet.

but the max inventory space is 10

might add index

depends if i can be asked

u feel me?

imma go make the map

cya

[tulip geode]

Anyone wanna do a rpg game about Frieren? im an animator.

[steep moat]

U should do a mob psycho battlegrounds game

[tulip geode]

why? i want to make a rpg about frieren

ooof

[steep moat]

Yea u could do that if ya want

[tulip geode]

ye im tryng to find people now

cuz im broke

[steep moat]

Oof

U use moon animator? Or sm

[soft fern]

and how much progress you got

[light niche]

server auth

[azure granite]

Is it even worth having models in server's workspace?
cant i just make server only store the data
then clients make parent the models to workspace themselves

[light niche]

server shouldn't handle visuals at most, so yes

[azure granite]

do other games do this

[azure granite]

idk this feels super extreme. on server side its just gonna be the map and that's it 💀

there's no downsides in doing this tho right

i just have to code it so clients can build the models, get updated whenever

basically handling the replication myself

[formal silo]

Is there any errors for this script

its all 1 script

[thorny glacier]

just run it

[formal silo]

I did, Its suppost to be an RNG brainrot game, And when i running it, I press ROLL it says after rolling but then it doesnt show me what i got or what i hatched

[thorny glacier]

well then if it doesnt say any errors

there is none

but it might not work as intended

[formal silo]

how do i know if there are errors

[wooden vapor]

Guys how can I preload animations without roblox yelling at me about the animation limit on an animator.
I'm pretty sure the animation limit was 256 before, I don't know why they lowered it to 32 tracks.

AnimationTrack limit of 32 tracks for one Animator exceeded, new animations will not be played.

[vagrant viper]

Can somoneone help me, I'm trying to add a prefix before admin usernames but it's not working, the local script is located in starterplayerscripts

[dense wasp]

add prints throughout it to make sure its actually reaching that line

[light niche]

depends on your game actually

But yea, I would create buildings visually

[cinder epoch]

output

[formal silo]

yeah i just knew how to find output

[vagrant viper]

I did thanks tho but i figured it out now, OnIncomingMessage uses TextChatService not the channel 🤦‍♂️

[west dirge]

hey does anyone has a pack of free animations to use

since im bad at animation but wanna see if my scripts are functionals

[dense wasp]

Just use the toolbox

[tawdry ice]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jBoKXIlZhAE

[frail fox]

for some reason my data keeps getting jumbled up when saved like this and I have no idea why

I've heard that you aren't supposed to use multiple data types in a index and maybe this is why???

idk

one sec I have a theory

[fossil inlet]

happy new year everyone

[frail fox]

Actually I might just Be Doing the Dictionaries Wrong

I remember them starting from 0

[limber badge]

AnimationTrack limit of 32 tracks for one Animator exceeded, new animations will not be played.

did anyone else get a silent change of 255 -> 32

what tf is this

[frail fox]

ok yeah nvm I just indexed wrong I'm Stupid

[lime gyro]

Someone decline my application already It's about a day

[deft patio]

why is print fart

[soft fern]

you applied for scripting comms?

[lime gyro]

Ye

[soft fern]

are they hard to get?

imma start comm hunting soon

[languid mirage]

Hello, do any of you know about a animation bug that is getting abused to crash a server? (makes client fps of everyone in the server very low)

"AnimationTrack limit of 32 tracks for one Animator exceeded. new animations will not be played." is the only thing that gets spammed in console when the crash is happening in game

i would show screenshot but no perms

if anyone know why this could be happening and if theres a patch, please let me know,

[lime gyro]

If you show profeciency in your role then you'll get it ,.tho I'm not really into working hard so I didn't use something fascinating for the application

[rich token]

Is AI replacing scripters anytime soon? what's stopping it right now? it can code pretty well

[unkempt bay]

Wait guys where can i learn to start to script?

And build and js learn about Roblox studio enough to make a crappy game

To build my experience

[static sleet]

on lua.org

[unkempt bay]

Oh ok

Thanks

[static sleet]

building is by just trying

[unkempt bay]

Alr

[unkempt bay]

I have tried like using those assets and pre built stuff but its js bad when u put them together

[static sleet]

yea they never fit well

try to come up with ur own style

[unkempt bay]

So i reckoned that im better of building from scratch

[unkempt bay]

Alr

[static sleet]

yea or you could try to recreate styles and see if their easy to you

[unkempt bay]

Okay thanks for the help man

[static sleet]

np

[unkempt bay]

Im trynna build a game with my laptop from 1720 and its pain

And im trynna get my parents to get a new one but they are saying to focus on my exams and stuff

[static sleet]

haha also have a old laptop from 2019

[unkempt bay]

lol

[frail fox]

I still don't know what the hell lerp() could be

[tribal meadow]

Hey guys,

I am scripting something client based (only visible by the player) and I'm wondering where I should place the script for the client. Should I place it in the StarterPlayerScripts?

[hollow magnet]

linear interpolation

[static coral]

yo is there a way to apply an entire bundle to a player’s character by just using the bundle ID instead of manually setting up a bunch of humanoid descriptions? i already checked humanoid description methods, players service, humanoid methods, avatar editor service and avatar creation service

[frail fox]

ah

doesn't seem very linear though?

let me test this again rq

yeah these animations definitely aren't linear

might just be this one

no they have these too

Weird

[frail fox]

but to clarify this means that lerp is the thing that actually makes it transition from 1 angle to another

this is really important

[hollow magnet]

lerp is used to find a point between two other points

Like
Part3.CFrame = Part1.CFrame:Lerp(Part2.CFrame,0.5)
would set Part3 to half way between Part1 and Part2

[frail fox]

oh

wait then that's Really weird to do here

[frail fox]

so here it's finding the inbetween of the pose, and not just setting it

that is incredibly dumb

[ashen birch]

Its like manual tween

[trim bolt]

why wont my script kill the player?

local y = 1

while true do
y = y + 20
script.Parent.Size = Vector3.new(2048, y, 2048)
wait(.5)
end

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

script.Parent.Touched:Connect(Getkilled)

[peak jolt]

does it print hit

[trim bolt]

nope

[peak jolt]

If you do this in a loop its basically an exponential tween

Idk what FPSFIX is but you just have to relate the alpha to dt instead of messing with "fps fixes" like that cause framerate can fluctuate for any reason

[peak jolt]

Does the part change size tho?

[trim bolt]

yup it does that just doesnt kill me

[peak jolt]

Does it kill you if you jump in early? My theory is that resizing a part doesn't immediately trigger touched events to be honest

[hollow wind]

guys im trying to make a plugin that edits scripts and I know its possible but what do you have to do to make it actually work

[trim bolt]

let me test that

[ashen birch]

Because you have a loop above the function

[peak jolt]

Damn

[ashen birch]

While loops dont let anything underneath run

[trim bolt]

oh, damn

just put it above you think?

[peak jolt]

What exactly are you having trouble with

[ashen birch]

Yeah

Put the function above it

[hollow wind]

what do you actually write I looked it up and its like script.source or smth? can you give a example bc theres not much documentation

[peak jolt]

The only barrier is that the .Source property is locked security such that only a plugin can read and edit it, otherwise yes its as simple as reading, (searching, replacing,) writing Source
