[foggy burrow]

sure hit me a dm

[wise turtle]

grid[x][y][z] is faster than grid[hash] btw

[kind owl]

Odds are you are over indexing on a minor issue - don't waste the mental bandwidth if it's not a problem

[gaunt gull]

sent u a request

[silent wasp]

Do you learn this by just practicing and stumbling on stuff like this along the way or..?

[kind owl]

benchmarking + experience

it also depends on how sparse the array is and how it was initialized

if it's sparse enough it'll be treated as a hash table rather than an array which has a latency penalty

[remote bear]

i use buffers for the main grid since i mainly loop through it and i also use a buffer to keep track of updated columns (though in the future i want to make a better culling method) but for the table i am talking about it is keeping track of the instances x and y. Its called many times per update so optimizing how much memory it uses would be nice

[wise turtle]

what bxbyalan said

[kind owl]

what's your current ops/s and the target you need to hit?

also the "optimize how much memory it uses" is a fundamentally different class of question than the original ask btw (fast lookup vs space efficiency)

[scarlet marten]

what could i make to submit for scripter application? 🤔
i submitted a gun script but it got declined for apparently not being advanced enough

[remote bear]

around 38,000 pixels or 190x200 per 0.0946 ms according to os.clock or around 0.085 in rendering alone. My aim is at least 60fps running a basic game on my potato

[remote bear]

yeah thats the problem i am not sure how much speed i want to give up for memory

[kind owl]

Is that an editable image? Lol

[silent wasp]

Guys for comms do I try to learn like "advanced" type of scripting or do I just make system as I can now and work my way up

[kind owl]

check the performance profiler, you probably are getting pwned by draw calls rather than the buffer access

[remote bear]

no, its an attempt to fork canvas draw 3.4.1 by implementing buffers and better update culling

[silent wasp]

Where do you even learn these terms

[kind owl]

my Roblox account is probably older than you - that answer suffice?

[remote bear]

alot of milk jugs

[silent wasp]

When did you make it I'm curious now

[kind owl]

[wise turtle]

pretty useful video btw https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cWDNVvOh4o0 :3

[silent wasp]

Not much younger than me

[silent wasp]

Ty 🙏

[kind owl]

zeuxcg also has great articles on DevForum

[remote bear]

i know this is for EI but i get limiting the amount of write calls would help, though i would have to test if checking is slower then just rewriting

[kind owl]

he's the former technical director

[kind owl]

yeah for this type of usecase reading up on other low level video rendering/image libraries (outside of Roblox) is probably your best bet

[silent wasp]

Jane do you have any more courses/videos like these?

[wise turtle]

think of a topic

maybe i do

maybe i dont

[silent wasp]

Umm

[kind owl]

it's stuff like compression/draw call culling that'll be your big performance benefits (only rerender portions of the screen instead of the entire screen)

[silent wasp]

Maybe smt for multi threading or like "more advanced" use of OOP

[wise turtle]

more advanced use of OOP

😵

[silent wasp]

And also why is sometimes using OOP worse for performance

[kind owl]

As much as I dislike AI, stuff like Gemini "Learning Mode" or perplexity for seeding topics/reading sources

[silent wasp]

Idk how to say some stuff generally

[kind owl]

ironically "SMT" is its own can of worms within multithreading

[remote bear]

i will defiantly do that. from what i can see a better update cull would be the best thing to work on since rendering takes 8 times as long then writing. The way CD3.4.1 does culling is column per column, its fast but lets alot through even if only a slither needs to be updated

[kind owl]

https;//roadmap.sh is also a good glossary of terms and a path to follow for researching

[kind owl]

scratch that SMT is the generic abbreviation for multithreading, I'm thinking of SIMD

[kind owl]

out of ignorance; what do people normally use this for?

is it effectively a cheap way to bypass video upload fees?

[silent wasp]

I heard of roadmap.sh, I'll look more there then, Thanks 😄

[kind owl]

and in general your most valuable skill you'll have in this career path is curiousity

keep at it 🙂

[silent wasp]

Thanks Alan, all help is greatly appreciated 🙏

[remote bear]

wanting to make cooler Ui or 2d games without giving personal information to roblox. The update roblox recently did does rase alot of consern on how they store personal information.

but really it can be used for alot

[kind owl]

seems like it'll be a uphill battle, but good luck

[remote bear]

thanks, at least you arnt telling me to use EI

[kind owl]

for that gif you sent is the terrain sprite system dynamic, or is that just a predefined data stream for benchmarking purposes

[remote bear]

it was just Perlin noise that is defined when new chunks load

What quals do i need in order to post a Feature Request for Studio Features, script-editor inside of DevForum

[peak jolt]

you need to request entry into the feature request group

it takes a few days or weeks to get accepted

[graceful haven]

oh thats no fun, can someone else make one for me?

[peak jolt]

what is it

[graceful haven]

auto complete delay

i have a problem when i code right now where auto suggestions pop up when im trying to press tab to auto complete a service like ReplicatedStorage etc.

does that make sense?

[peak jolt]

press enter to use intellisense not tab

[graceful haven]

Yes but even when i go into script-Editor and change this setting [Autocomplete Acceptance Behavior] to the opposite it still doesn't work

[peak jolt]

you can probably change the keybind for either accept ai suggestion, autocomplete, or both, whatever you prefer, if you dont like it

[graceful haven]

I didn't think about that let me try it

[peak jolt]

idk what u mean cause ive never had this issue i press tab for ai and enter for autocomplete

[graceful haven]

I'd have to use my right hand for Enter and I'm not used to doing that, its built into muscle memory from when i didn't have this problem

Thats why i was trying to get a delay on the auto suggestions

[peak jolt]

Yea just swap the keybinds then

[graceful haven]

im working on finding the keybinds then ill be chilling appreciate your help!

How long should it take me to learn lua and start to make money from it from like comisions

there's no set amount of time it should take, it depends how fast you can learn

or see other people requesting

[mint plover]

is there something that would be better and would pay more in the development section of this discord

that could transfer to other things rather than just roblox

[peak jolt]

[mint plover]

could you make a list on what things would pay the most like 1 paying the most and 5 paying the least

[peak jolt]

No such a list is not possible to make

Making and owning a game is top 1 that's the only certainty

[steady oxide]

You wont

[molten jackal]

i have a roller coaster that has a broken reset button. does anybody have a simple line of code so if i click the button the whole model resets.

[ripe hinge]

loop through where the roller coaster model is stored, and delete it. Then clone something from replicated and move it to the workspace, I guess (you should store the position of where you want it to be). (probably not the most efficient way to do it buuut).

[mint plover]

WeldConstraints should do the job.

[shy furnace]

Doing that rn, let’s see. Been about a few days of learning lua. This is my 3rd attempt.

[deft coral]

WeldConstraint or AlignPosition with RigidityEnabled set to true

guys, is there a specific listener to detect when a player is trying to leave your game? Right now I'm using:

UserInputService.InputBegan:Connect(function(input, gameProcessed)
if input.KeyCode == Enum.KeyCode.Escape then
--logic here
end
end)

obv id assume this doesn't work on mobile and is also messy

[supple spindle]

PlayerRemoving

game.Players.PlayerRemoving:Connect(function() --code end)

[rose root]

but that's after they click leave no? or im i missing smth

[rose root]

that was unclear mb

[supple spindle]

why would that be a problem

[rose root]

i meant specifically like when they are on the leave menu

[supple spindle]

why would u want them to detect the leave menu 😭

[rose root]

i've seen certain games give an award so they stay instead, and it helps retention a bit

[supple spindle]

ohh

[rose root]

i asked gpt and it just says use the escape key

[short basalt]

just use guiservice

game.GuiService.MenuIsOpen

or game.GuiService.MenuOpened

for connection

Ah

works now

thank u goat

When someone donates to me, no VFX effect comes out of my tip jar. Can you tell me what I need for my VFX effect to pop out of my tip jar after a player has donated?

[somber vault]

Tried that days ago

Imma explain first

[glossy forge]

Connect it to a event

[somber vault]

There’s a gamepass I didn’t add. It is invisible to me (the creator) and only show up to other players and alts. I tried to find and dispose of it by every mean possible but nothing worked. Note: the gamepass was there way b4 I even added anything to the game (I used the roblox laser tag template)

[glossy forge]

…

I’ve never heard of anything like that

[somber vault]

It also doesn’t appear in studio

[dark jungle]

i have a event its called opendonate

[glossy forge]

So

Did you make sure it triggers when someone donates

And then make the VFX trigger when the event is triggered

[dark jungle]

oh first of all my vfx need to be triggered yes?

where i can do the trigger for the vfx?

hi indian, do you have any skills except for scripting

[olive summit]

i script and somewhat build

[quasi grotto]

hmm

Builds in dms, best ones

[dark oasis]

Can you give me a rough idea of how it works

[sleek cove]

out of interest, is there any faster way to wait? Faster than task.wait() , before anybody says RunService, its the same thing.

im running some terrain generation code, and with the fixed parameters i add; it can run it without waiting, but i have a feeling it might script exhaust if i push it further. But adding a task.wait() , slows down the process by about 30x

[prisma mason]

you could create your own implementation but it would be very inconsistent

[timid bramble]

just throttle it every once in a while
track when the operation starts using os.clock, then check how long it's been since then, if it's longer than say 100 milliseconds, use task.wait

[quasi grotto]

thx bro idk if to sell this one or another one

hope i find someone

[fast bronze]

You should try making it better there's already a lot of building systems out there

And I would suggest if you found someone try customizing it for em for the uniqueness

[unreal geode]

mh wym better

what should i improve

[fast bronze]

Idk I'm out of ideas rn

[unreal geode]

lol

[fast bronze]

But a better GUI ig

[unreal geode]

WHERE is the gui

[unreal geode]

i aint got no gui in my system bruh

[fast bronze]

Make it be visible bru

Learn that 🙏

[fast bronze]

That's the problem

A new player wont know what to do there

[unreal geode]

i guess maybe tutorial texts

[unreal geode]

Do you have to use a remote event for that?

[unreal geode]

yep

[unreal geode]

thx bro ima sell it fs

[quiet spear]

For how much

[unreal geode]

how much do you think i should

its a complex system

not the one you see

[quiet spear]

Idk tbh

[unreal geode]

it uses the same system minecraft uses

Voxel or smth

university math shi

so prob like 3.5k-5k robux

3.5k to first sell

[quiet spear]

sounds fair

[unreal geode]

so yh for now 3.5k

[unreal geode]

thx not tryna make it high but if i put it too low people will just pre-judge

[fast bronze]

[steady oxide]

how do i record screen on the new roblox studio UI

[foggy bronze]

Dont take it personally but if you make it with AI then atleast give it credit or make it free

[unreal geode]

lol yh i did It on purpose cause i need to sell It, comments make the code more readable, and i asked him to fill the script with comments so when i sell the script people know whats going on in it

i can show you the chat where i asked him that like four days ago

also good for debugging

[foggy bronze]

3.5k for AI is overpriced tho, make it lower, or free, i bet people could use it to make something good out of it

[unreal geode]

95% of scripters cant make that lol, the way i built the system is very Advanced

[sonic juniper]

why does roblox's built in UI error when ran sometimes?

[foggy bronze]

It just depends on the prompt you give him, if you explain every single thing you want itll make it.

[unreal geode]

im using DDA algorithm wich is smth you study in the third year of university of computer engineer

[sonic juniper]

does that is it a machine error with it?

[unreal geode]

took 2 DAYS of prompts, to constantly make it Better: framework, modular, lot of readability, helper functions everywhere

[static coral]

lag

[foggy bronze]

Well, i have a suggestion, make it for multiple shapes, and make it "advanced", Color selection etc and all in an GUI, if you would do that its atleast fair to sell

Just a system with a block placing isnt worth it for 3.5k

[unreal geode]

its already MORE THAN FAIR lmao

[static coral]

roblox scripts break in studio if u really laggy and in live games they usually warn a lot

[unreal geode]

im constantly updating it obv

[foggy bronze]

Hes right, make the first list he gave, if you want it professional like he said, then add the lower stuff

If you add all of that the 3.5k or even more should be worth it

[unreal geode]

perfect thanks for the tip brudda

i also think all those features would make It a Little too complicated to read tho lol dont you think

[foggy bronze]

If im not wrong you can exploit the system through the remote btw, you can just change the args and then you could "spam" the remote, resulting to server lags or even the system maybe breaking, just a basic anti-cheat doesnt solve it, there can be so many vunerabilities, and for the new message, the particle effects arent neccessary, theyre just cosmetic, but the sounds, multiple block types, inventory, save / load, and ui is recommended if you want to sell it for a good price

[unreal geode]

thats true i need to work on quite some things but at that point the system is 5k robux point black period, i have already lot of guard statements, that prevent placing at distance, and a loooot of other things

that im not gonna state cuz they are too much

[sonic juniper]

Yh i put it together now

[foggy bronze]

Just make extra checks, if theres been a block placed forcefully through a remote or generally not by self it will just ban you permanent

Your best bet is to either ask in #staff-help or make a General Ticket #open-ticket

Best to do the second option

[sterile summit]

@sand remnant do i use remote event or buffer

[winged locust]

I am starting to get into Projectiles as I want to make weapons and I have been looking through guides and tutorials, one thing I am confused about is using equations. How does one learn these things when it comes to projectiles? Like how do people understand what they need to do to make projectiles have drops or do curves flying up or down

example:

local connection
    connection = RunService.Heartbeat:Connect(function(deltaTime)
        local stepVelocity = velocity + gravity * deltaTime
        local stepDisplacement = (velocity + stepVelocity) / 2 * deltaTime
        velocity = stepVelocity
        
        local nextPosition = position + stepDisplacement
        projectile.CFrame = CFrame.new(nextPosition, nextPosition + velocity.Unit)
        
        position = nextPosition
        totalDistance += stepDisplacement.Magnitude
        
        if totalDistance >= MAX_DISTANCE then
            projectile:Destroy()
            connection:Disconnect()
        end
    end)
    
end)```

Im not sure if this is part of coding help but I am more interested in discussing about how people understand equations when its applied to coding

[patent sonnet]

how do simulator games like ps99 and bgsi do their egg hatching animations

where it isnt just a viewport frame

[boreal grail]

Its mostly just physics

Like formulas for projectile motion

[winged locust]

yeah that's something I dont understand how the formulas are applied to it

[boreal grail]

I think its done with lerping, similar how to you have done it (unsure though)

So for a projectile, its gonna have an initial velocity and its gonna be fired at an angle, then its path can be calculated and traced

[winged locust]

the vertical formula is y(t) = Vo * t - 1/2 * g * t^2 and from the video ive been writing this code off on and he has showed this formula in the end and so its very confusing

[boreal grail]

so y(t) describes the height of the ovject, Vo is the initial velocity and t is time

g is a constant, and since this doesnt have an angle its simply being rolled of an edge

So Vo is really the only variable that you need to input

Im really bad at explaining…

[winged locust]

its ok xd, Im just bad at understanding because BrawlDev wrote that out and I just dont clearly see how that formula is used yet, I most likely have to experiment with formulas and understand I suppose

would be cool if he explained in how that formula is used

this is the full coding

local RunService = game:GetService("RunService")
local fireBall = game.ReplicatedStorage.FireBall
local projectileObj = game.ServerStorage.Projectile

local SPEED = 500
local GRAVITY_MULT = .25
local MAX_DISTANCE = 250

fireBall.OnServerEvent:Connect(function(plr, mousePos)
    
    local origin = plr.Character.HumanoidRootPart.Position
    local direction = (mousePos - origin).Unit
    local gravity = Vector3.new(0,-workspace.Gravity, 0) * GRAVITY_MULT
    
    local projectile = projectileObj:Clone()
    
    projectile.CFrame = CFrame.new(origin, origin + direction)
    projectile.Parent = workspace
    local velocity = direction * SPEED
    local position = origin
    local totalDistance = 0
    
    local connection
    connection = RunService.Heartbeat:Connect(function(deltaTime)
        local stepVelocity = velocity + gravity * deltaTime
        local stepDisplacement = (velocity + stepVelocity) / 2 * deltaTime
        velocity = stepVelocity
        
        local nextPosition = position + stepDisplacement
        projectile.CFrame = CFrame.new(nextPosition, nextPosition + velocity.Unit)
        
        position = nextPosition
        totalDistance += stepDisplacement.Magnitude
        
        if totalDistance >= MAX_DISTANCE then
            projectile:Destroy()
            connection:Disconnect()
        end
    end)
    
end)```

I do understand the .Unit and directions for the projectile, but not the motion I suppose

[boreal grail]

Basically, the computer draws the line and then the part cframe just follows it

You can use a graphing calculator like desmos to see how it would travel

[winged locust]

I def get that yeah

so in the script
I suppose the gravity is multiplying with the deltatime to increase its motion drop which adds in with the velocity after that

For the stepdisplacement, I am not clearly understanding it there just yet

[boreal grail]

Stepdisplacement is just how much it moves i think

I havent read it but thats what it sounds like

[winged locust]

You're right

because every Heartbeat replaces position with NextPosition and then adds stepDisplacement

and then the Projectile.CFrame updates to the nextPosition

interesting

[split gazelle]

How much da pay

[night sky]

Just dm me

[regal salmon]

you really shouldve implemented that 2nd one before publishing because the fact that data already exists makes it way more problematic

[night sky]

It’s okay the game was in beta

With the message ur stuff will not be there when game comes out of beta

It was just to test stuff

[regal salmon]

ah okay

[night sky]

Yeah. Once I find someone who can help it’ll be sick

[regal salmon]

are you paying?

if i sent track animation to the server can i get the markers of the track in the server?

[distant hamlet]

just send the id

[wise burrow]

whats the difference between a scripter and programmer in this server specifically? thank you

[bronze path]

Marketplace wise:
Scripter = Luau / Roblox Scripter
Programmer = Someone who codes in other languages like C++ or Java

That’s why there’s #scripter-hiring #scripter-hirable and #programmer-hiring #programming-hirable

[wise burrow]

also i heard you can do commissions here, not just work for hire, where do i do that?

im looking for luau scripting commissions btw

I learned from youtube videos and devforums posts

like profilestore n stuff

[tough belfry]

I would like to simply ask for advice on this datastore. I am relatively new to making them and I do not know if its well made . Not done yet . Thanks
local DataStoreService = game:GetService("DataStoreService")
local PlayerInventory = DataStoreService:GetDataStore("PlayerInventory")
local sessionData = {}

local dataMod = {}

local starterData = {
["Inventory"] = { ["SpeedGear"] = false , ["JumpGear"] = false } ,
["Coins"] = 0 ,
}

dataMod.recursiveCopy = function (targetTable) -- We create a deep copy mechanism
local tableCopy = {}
for index , value in pairs (targetTable) do
if type(value)=="table" then
value = dataMod.recursiveCopy(value)
end
tableCopy[index]=value
end
return tableCopy
end

dataMod.loadData = function (player)
if not player then return end

local userId = player.UserId 
local data 

local success , error = pcall (function()
     data = PlayerInventory:GetAsync(userId)
end)

if success and data~=nil then 
    for index , value in pairs(starterData) do 
-- This action is done to check for new items added to the game during updates . 
        if data[index]== nil then 
            data[index] = value 
        end
    end
    print ("Data has been loaded")
    
elseif success and data == nil then 
    data = dataMod.recursiveCopy(starterData)
    print("New player has joined.Data loaded")

else 
    player:Kick("Error has occured. Please rejoin.")
end

if data then 
    sessionData[userId] =data
end

end

dataMod.saveData = function (player)
if not player then return end
local userId = player.UserId
local dataToSave = sessionData[userId]
local success , err = pcall ( function()
return PlayerInventory:UpdateAsync(userId , function(oldData)
return dataToSave
end)
end)

end

return dataMod

[sharp dome]

Your save function doesn't do anything if it fails:
dataMod.saveData = function (player)
if not player then return end
local userId = player.UserId
local dataToSave = sessionData[userId]

if not dataToSave then return end -- Add this check!

local success, err = pcall(function()
    PlayerInventory:UpdateAsync(userId, function(oldData)
        return dataToSave
    end)
end)

if not success then
    warn("Failed to save data for " .. player.Name .. ": " .. tostring(err))
    -- Consider retry logic here
end

end

2. Kicking on Load Error is Harsh
   Instead of immediately kicking, try retrying:
   dataMod.loadData = function(player)
   if not player then return end
   local userId = player.UserId
   local data

   for attempt = 1, 3 do -- Retry up to 3 times
   local success, errorMsg = pcall(function()
   data = PlayerInventory:GetAsync(userId)
   end)

    if success then
        break
    elseif attempt == 3 then
        player:Kick("Failed to load data after 3 attempts. Please rejoin.")
        return
    else
        wait(1) -- Wait before retrying
    end
   

   end

   -- Rest of your code...
   end

3. Missing Critical Pieces

4. Consider Auto-Save

And rename error to errorMsg in your pcall to avoid shadowing the global

but your on the right track man keep going

[stiff saddle]

local Players = game:GetService("Players")
local PlayerInventory = DataStoreService:GetDataStore("PlayerInventory")

end

local function reconcile(template, data)
    data = data or {}
    for k, v in pairs(template) do
        if data[k] == nil then data[k] = deepCopy(v)
        elseif type(v) == "table" then data[k] = reconcile(v, data[k]) end
    end
    return data
end

function dataMod.loadData(player)
    local data
    for i = 1, 3 do
        local success = pcall(function() data = PlayerInventory:GetAsync(player.UserId) end)
        if success then break end
        if i == 3 then player:Kick("Data failed to load") return end
        task.wait(1)
    end
    sessionData[player.UserId] = reconcile(starterData, data)
    return sessionData[player.UserId]
end

function dataMod.saveData(player)
    if not sessionData[player.UserId] then return end
    for i = 1, 3 do
        local success = pcall(function() PlayerInventory:SetAsync(player.UserId, sessionData[player.UserId]) end)
        if success then break end
        task.wait(1)
    end
end

function dataMod.getData(player)
    return sessionData[player.UserId]
end

Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(dataMod.loadData)
Players.PlayerRemoving:Connect(function(player)
    dataMod.saveData(player)
    sessionData[player.UserId] = nil
end)

game:BindToClose(function()
    for userId, data in pairs(sessionData) do
        pcall(function() PlayerInventory:SetAsync(userId, data) end)
    end
end)

return dataMod```

took time but np brother

what was wrong is

No retry logic and kicked instantly on fail so i fixed

added retry logic fixed save errors added bindtoclose for shutdown fixed memory leak fixed nested data updates and made it way shorter

alr gg

@tough belfry

[fleet silo]

I mean it kinda just depends on what you need, for most data saving stuff, all you really need is to load and save data, but just make sure you handle cases where you couldnt able to get the data so you go ahead and kick the player or something like that

If a player rejoins too fast, the game might still be saving your data when you left so you might kick them again

[wide elbow]

How much time it takes to learn scripting

[tall sedge]

It depends.

Where can I post a job advertisement?

can someone explain return

[tough belfry]

thans a lot everyone im gonna implement the changes and i hope its better appreciate the help

[tough belfry]

masterpiece of code thanks

[stiff saddle]

No problem

[tall sedge]

‘Return’ returns information.

[remote root]

whats useful about it

[tough belfry]

I’m not an expert, but my understanding is that return outputs a value from a function so it can be stored in a variable or used elsewhere. I visualize it like this: if you delete an object, it usually just disappears. But if you use return with that action, the function 'hands' you the deleted object back. This allows you to catch it, for example: local banana = deleteObject(item)

[tough belfry]

if you dont return it ur function basically does something and keeps the information for itself it does not share it ( grossly simplified explanation )

[remote root]

so without return its a function that only does one specific thing but if u return u can use what u returned for multiple things?

[wise burrow]

where do i find luau commissions (not working for hire), is there a place in this server or do i have to look in another server?

[tough belfry]

yeah that is a way to see it , ur function returns something say an "apple" and then you use that apple later in the script to do an apple pie

[remote root]

ily

[tough belfry]

glad to hear it lol

[dark flame]

you can return values n cool stuff, you'll get the hang of it soon

i love it

[compact echo]

don't lose ur time just learn and use profile service

cuz when u learn it u will not using datastore service anymore

[opal meadow]

Yall what type of physics does uma racing use

[silent wasp]

I hate making frameworks from the deepest point of my soul

[open cipher]

guys how to learn how to script zombie in studios?

[honest fern]

That’s like the most fun part of dev

[silent wasp]

Idk when I start to make frameworks Idk where to start and if I somehow know where to start idk what functions to make

[honest fern]

How long have u been programming?

[silent wasp]

Started in like september give or take a month

So couple months ig?

[honest fern]

It kinda just takes time yk? You practice writing modules and over time you learn to understand what modules should handle what, and what code should be abstracted out. For now just don’t think of them as “frameworks”, just write systems with the intent of making them work and you’ll build the skills to know what frameworks need. You can’t write a framework without knowing how the code intends to use that framework.

I hope that makes a little bit of sense I’m kinda just rambling

[silent wasp]

It makes sense dw but I just want to make code cleaner and like start to get good habits early ig

[honest fern]

Focus on keeping a consistent code structure. People being inconsistent with variable names, function names, etc, or having poor spacing ultimately makes code more unreadable. For now, as you’re newer, the best way to progress is just by creating something you wanna make, and while you do it try to have the discipline to make ur code look nice

[silent wasp]

Alright, how much time do you think it'll take to understand frameworks fully

[wise turtle]

why do you need a framework

[silent wasp]

I wanna make an ability framework

And generally I'd need frameworks ig

[inland wren]

I mean we never will have a complete or perfect understanding of this stuff. Our goal should be to keep trying to improve, and gather more knowledge/experience rather than total understanding.

you never stop learning

you just keep improving

Turn on dark mode

[open cipher]

No

[honest fern]

Ouch

[vague basalt]

Dark mode is for building bro when u script white mode is life saver from what I heard

[mossy lynx]

why are u doing SpeedGear =- false, isnt that going to just make it not save if its true?

[honest fern]

I’ve been scripting for years and white mode is terrible😭💀

[silent wasp]

Yo I bought claude pro and it's absolutely terrible for 20$

Yoda scammed my ass

[ebon wren]

yo why are r15 anims loading but r6 aren’t is there a new bug?

like i tried every bypass properly

even checked with ai

nothing works

and it’s only with r6

[elfin cobalt]

Hello I have a question, should I learn Lua 5.1 version first?

[ebon wren]

is r6 bugged?

[mossy lynx]

no

luau

[indigo whale]

if u wanna learn roblox scripting dont learn lua, learn luau

[elfin cobalt]

where do you learn luau?

is there a book?

[mossy lynx]

bro luau is so easy to learn

ai and all that other stuff

[indigo whale]

on roblox studio and roblox documentation

[elfin cobalt]

ok

[indigo whale]

idk if theres a book but you can watch videos on youtube

[mossy lynx]

people say python is easier top learn but imo luau is the easiest coding language to learn cuz recourses, its easier to undersatnd (just to me)

holy yap

js yappin for nmun

[elfin cobalt]

i will look at roblox documentation

[indigo whale]

alr

[indigo whale]

and also practice what you learn or youre going to forget it

[elfin cobalt]

gotcha!

[split pilot]

idk about that

[split pilot]

if ur good at luau do u get slightly better at python

since its pretty much the same just worded differently like instead of local for a variable u dont add local

[mossy lynx]

yeah but Im having a hard time learning python

prolyl cuz im young and like im writing on random websites and it js doesnt seem like it would woirk

like I look at it and it doesnt make sense

that it would work

idk what im fucking talking asbout

[split pilot]

why dont u use visual studio code and tutorials

[mossy lynx]

im doing tutorialss rn\

im using chat gpt for help

Im writing a character rpg thing

no experuience in python at all too

but I got guidance on waht to do, and It kinda makes sense since i know luau

[mossy lynx]

do u knopw python

[split pilot]

no

[mossy lynx]

shi

ims tuck

im stuck

im trying to figure out how to check if a value is less than 1

like if one value out of all of them is less than 1

why is it so hard, it should be so simple

like if any value out of all of them is less than 1 it returns

and I got all the values in a variable called stats and it still doesnt work by doing if any(stats < 1)

[split pilot]

i see

[mossy lynx]

bro im doing it the right fucking way

and its not getting checked off

like bro is this nto fucking right

if any(stat < 1 for stat in stats)

thats fucking right bro

fucking pissing me off

nvm there wasw a problem with my last code

bur the fucking tutoprial checked it off as right

[sonic sonnet]

h ttp://tiny.cc/kvdx001 100% not ip logger

[mossy lynx]

bro im trying to learn python on free code camp and its so fucking confusing on waht it wants me to right

write

[tiny widget]

give an example

[mossy lynx]

dont flame me

if u can undersatnd it

the first line should contain the character name
lines 2-4 should start with the stat abbreviation, STR, INT or CHA (in this order), then a space, and then a number of full dots (●) equal to the value of the stat, and a number of empty dots (○) to reach 10. Example: if the value of strength is 3 there must be 3 full dots followed by 7 empty dots. The dots are given in the editor.

like it says rthis, but i dont undersatnd the way to do it, I had to ask chat gpt on what it means and I printed the right thing and it still aint saying I passed

yo finally i fucking beati t

did all of that shit

this is how you get proper type checking for oop

thank you i didnt even know roblox had export

[fallow tiger]

already done its called rojo

[fallow tiger]

its mainly for roblox. Some people I think do know unreal but smaller percentage of the hd community

Ppl really should use unity or unreal its so much better to make games

It is harder

But higher quality of creation

[lean ocean]

there's a better way

you don't need typeof

I cba to write it out tho

[honest fern]

You can type check inheritance without typeof(setmetatable)?

Bc the other solution is to manually type every function/property and that blows

Typeof(setmetatable( properly types any property of the class ur inheriting from

It’s also a pretty compact / easy way to do it imo

[gloomy scaffold]

Hello, I've noticed a different kind of function which is this :
TextChatService.OnBubbleAdded = function(msg:TextChatMessage)
if msg.TextSource then
return
end
local properties =
end

What is the difference from of that function to something like : TextChatService.OnBubbleAdded:Connect(functionExample)

[regal salmon]

it's a callback, i believe it allows you to return something back to the caller, as opposed to :Connect for events, which dont allow you to return something
in this case, i think you can return a BubbleChatMessageProperties to change what the bubble will look like

[gloomy scaffold]

pretty similar to remoteEvents and remoteFunctions right?

[regal salmon]

remote functions, it acts basically the same. remove events, no

[tall sedge]

Yep! There's one relatively new plugin I regularly use called, "Azul."

Works phenomenal for what I do. Here's the link to their documentation forum:

what's the best for combat sword

• make the sword tool
• clone it and weld to the right arm

i mean the best like the best to make high quality combat system

not something for shit

[spiral monolith]

It doesnt really matter

[final iris]

Guys im making 3 things to build up a portfolio (which includes: A admin panel, Interactive NPC system and player abilities (like a fireball or some stereotypical thing), should i make more or nah

[spiral monolith]

You can make a high quality combat system with either

[compact echo]

I'm thinking about the data with more than one sword

it will be harder to get nice pos in the hand for every sword

[spiral monolith]

I mean you can still use a tool where you pivot the handle of the tool to the grip of thr sword

[compact echo]

yep i think ill do that

[summer lantern]

guys why is this code not working

local part = script.Parent
local SSS = game:GetService("ServerScriptService")
local folder = SSS:WaitForChild("Data")
local PS = require(folder:WaitForChild("PlayerData"))

local target = workspace:FindFirstChildOfClass("SpawnLocation")

local debounce = {}
local cooldown = 1 -- touch cooldown

local function teleporting(hit)
local character = hit.Parent
local humanoid = character:FindFirstChildOfClass("Humanoid")
local root = character:FindFirstChild("HumanoidRootPart")
local player = game:GetService("Players"):GetPlayerFromCharacter(character)

if humanoid and root and player and not debounce[player] then
    debounce[player] = true
    -- TP
    root.CFrame = target.CFrame + Vector3.new(0, 3, 0)

    PS.AddWins(player, 1)

    local sound = script:WaitForChild("SFX")
    if sound then sound:Play() end

    task.delay(cooldown, function()
        debounce[player] = nil
    end)
end

end

part.Touched:Connect(teleporting)

its supposed to tp me back to spawn and add a win to me

[copper grotto]

what's the output

[cold bison]

maybe your charachter isnt loaded out yet or spawn isnt in workspace

[quartz epoch]

root.CFrame = target.CFrame + Vector3.new(0, 3, 0) you are adding a Vector3 to a CFrame on this line

the correct thing to do would be root.CFrame = target.CFrame * CFrame.new(0, 3, 0)

[peak jolt]

theres nothing wrong with doing that, in most cases adding that vector there is exactly what you want

[quartz epoch]

you're right, a vector3 can be added to a cframe

forgot

[summer lantern]

no output

[summer lantern]

lemme try

still nothing happens when i touch it

[quartz epoch]

try replacing that line with ```
character:PivotTo(target.CFrame + Vector3.new(0, 3, 0))

[peak jolt]

i just copy pasted your code and it works for me

[summer lantern]

one sec

[peak jolt]

is it a normal script (not localscript) in a part in workspace, and is the runcontext set to legacy? (or server)

[summer lantern]

huh weird

[summer lantern]

still doesnt work i dont think thats the problem

[quartz epoch]

the script should run if it's in the workspace so that looks alright

[summer lantern]

nothing happens

its as if theres no script

[quartz epoch]

is the part's canTouch property on?

[peak jolt]

is the part anchored

[quartz epoch]

try adding a print in your script see if it runs

maybe the folders you're waitforchild(ing) arent there?

[summer lantern]

doesnt work

[tall sedge]

Is the script disabled by chance?

[quartz epoch]

put it at the top of the script if it wasnt there already and see

[summer lantern]

no lmao

[summer lantern]

i tried, i cant seem to find it

[tall sedge]

Hm

[summer lantern]

maybe im doing the whole thing wrong is this correct?

[peak jolt]

are u sure cause for me the icon is white when its enabled and grey like yours when its disabled

[quartz epoch]

did it print?

[summer lantern]

nope

[quartz epoch]

yeah the script is disabled

most likely

[summer lantern]

look

[tall sedge]

Hm

[quartz epoch]

is the model that it's in, in the workspace?

[summer lantern]

could it be the other scripts that broke everything else?

[quartz epoch]

i dont think so

the model is in workspace, right?

[summer lantern]

yeah

[quartz epoch]

try setting RunContext to server, even though it should work with legacy

[summer lantern]

alr

nope

[quartz epoch]

damn

[summer lantern]

btw this wasnt scripted by me

[quartz epoch]

you sure the part isnt getting destroyed or smth?

[summer lantern]

its the jakedev slap tower kit

[quartz epoch]

is it there when u play

[summer lantern]

idk if that makes a diff

[summer lantern]

yeah

i step on it nth happens

[quartz epoch]

show me the part and its children in the explorer while you're in play mode

[peak jolt]

just hop on team create at that point

[quartz epoch]

https://tenor.com/view/speed-ishowspeed-speed-stream-ishowspeed-stream-speed-nod-gif-1082323842437565509

[summer lantern]

i might js hire bro if hes interested to fix the scripts lmao

[quartz epoch]

see if the part's canTouch is on while in play mode

[peak jolt]

the part has a touchinterest so something is binding to its touched meaning your script is running

[quartz epoch]

im baffled how the print at the top wont print

[summer lantern]

check ur dms

[earnest cliff]

vro has outdated studio

[summer lantern]

ts aint working bro

help me to create random map selector

[remote root]

whats the point of findfirstchild

[final iris]

Finds the first child of that instance with that name, so if theres duplicates it picks a specific one all the time.

Me personally i use it if something has the odds to exist or not exist, since it wont error if i try use it

ima explain how i use it

Lets say a instance named “Item” is only gonna appear when someone loots a box

So i can do

—// insert code
end ```

This would work if it equals nil

It wouldnt error

[remote root]

thanks

[final iris]

Yw

[final iris]

I think i can help w that

Can i ask whats erroring tho

[orchid gate]

how do i successfully use data structures for an inventory system

[bitter fjord]

How do you guys best handle NPCs? Do you spawn them blank and use a script to give them clothes, hair and such from the marketplace, or do you have them pulled premade from the replicatedstorage?

[orchid gate]

premade is probably better

[stable bane]

someone got raycast benchmarks

[bitter fjord]

First time using toolbox. Hair models are messy to find oof

[somber vault]

r there any good ragdolls on devforum rn that r clientsided?

[static coral]

premade is better, u dont have to get accessories from toolbox tho, use humanoid descriptions, you can apply any accessories/clothes
from the roblox catalog

then use game.Players:CreateHumanoidRigFromDescriptionAsync() or whatever its called and make sure u parent the created rig to workspace or somewhere atleast otherwise it will be parented to nil and wont show up

[glacial onyx]

how should i go about making cooldowns

for abilities

[static coral]

u can make a module for specifically making cooldowns or just use timestamps and tables

like for example
AbilityCooldowns[player][ability] = true

[arctic hazel]

@final iris

[final iris]

Whazzup

[arctic hazel]

u indian na?

[final iris]

yeahh why?

[arctic hazel]

[final iris]

Technically

[cobalt apex]

rizzmas

[final iris]

I am born in nz

[cobalt apex]

muhehehe

[arctic hazel]

i am making indian game like im indian too dm pls

[final iris]

Oh trust me

[arctic hazel]

💀 u know hindi?

[final iris]

Im more nz than indian

Na

[dusk stratus]

mango mango

[final iris]

I know more māori kupu

[arctic hazel]

nz ( newzeland)?

[final iris]

yep

The name and last name is misleading

[arctic hazel]

oh

@final iris can u make intermission system for my game 🫠🫠🙏🏻🙏🏻

[final iris]

Sure sure

[arctic hazel]

dm pls

[final iris]

Bet

[arctic hazel]

but how u do that in my studio 👽

[final iris]

Ah dw just gimme some specifics like

Aight so do u want players to be spawned in a lobby when its inter

And do u want it to also include when its game time

Or just intermission

[arctic hazel]

i want like ppls spawn in lobby and intermission time get started then after 30 sec game gets started and players het teleported to the game or random map
i will give you shoutouts ~^~^~

[glacial onyx]

ok so if i made a table for an example how do i like add the cooldown to the ability that was used and how do i count it? do i use task.wait or is there other way

local abilities = {
  explosion = {
     damage = 10
    cooldown = 3
    range = 30
  }
}

local cooldowns = {}

local function useExplosion()
    local stats = abilities.explosion
end)

[sinful badge]

you can cache the time the ability was used and then just check if the difference between the time its called and the original time is more than the cooldown

[static coral]

cooldowns[abilities.explosion] = true
then remove it with task.delay, the delay time being the cooldown time

or use timestamps like the other person said

[glacial onyx]

ohh i see

lemme try both

[honest flame]

for each tower with cos, move their co's to the clientsidedobjects folder in replicatedstorage
you could prob use collectionservice or just find them by name
and just move co's that have dedicated folders for them in clientsidedobjects to their respective folders

yall know what this means

im working on a game i cant fix clientsidedobjects

anyone

[stable bane]

skid ok?

[stable bane]

use server sided objects

[scenic hornet]

print("ello")

[summer lantern]

guys i think my codes r broken can anyone fix them for me? dm

[blazing leaf]

Hey guys, I wanted to know how yall make ur portfolio websites

[distant hamlet]

html

[glacial onyx]

what

im still learning

[blazing leaf]

how

[somber holly]

u can code it yourself or you can use cardd

[empty tangle]

how do i stop people reselling game kits that ive made is there a way to manually authorise who has access with scripts?

[hazy eagle]

❌

[empty tangle]

wym no

[hazy eagle]

I mean you could probably authorize script data through HttpService and a key but like

why bro

and that would probably term you too

loadstring and require checks are SUPER strict in moderation

even if you used packages the old code would be leaked still

[empty tangle]

rlly wow

[hazy eagle]

its possible but rlly risky

for client scripts you can't use HttpService you'd have to use a (creator marketplace published) required module, but u gotta be the owner of the module (or have shared access) to let others use it

and yet again exploiters can just obtain the data of the required module by hooking

nah wait u cant even do that without making it a public asset so ur basically screwed

[next star]

any tips for how to start coding?

where i can find good tutorials and stuff?

[copper grotto]

brawldev on yt

[next star]

ty

[hazy eagle]

mf dont name promote

use MULTIPLE

one developer on youtube isn't gonna cut it

[copper grotto]

uhmm Thedevking also

he's just starting out

[hazy eagle]

recommendations are:
YouTube - easiest to understand
DevForum - For specific things
Books - Only some are good, most are poop though

@next star ^

[next star]

ty man

when i get the basic, should i get a tutor?

[hazy eagle]

make sure not to restrict yourself to one creator for youtube

[hazy eagle]

luau is pretty easy to self-teach if you grind enough

[next star]

last time it made me quit after 1 hour 💔

[next star]

oh alr alr

[hazy eagle]

if you want to spend the money, sure, it may be easier since they can answer you immediately

[next star]

so get a tutor only if i want to take it to the next lvl?

[hazy eagle]

other than that idk what the diff is

[hazy eagle]

nah, you don't need to do that

you can if you want, it's actually really just optional

[next star]

i see

thank u

[hazy eagle]

np

gl

[dense wasp]

where would one study how to optimise their code? i've been trying to find stuff but the most i can find is really low level optimisation

[hazy eagle]

Research memory leaks, better formatting, better practices, type checking, and pragmas

This knowledge helped me alot when it came to optimization

[dense wasp]

wdym by better formatting?

[hazy eagle]

You can read the code better

It's optional but it's optimal to edit with

[dense wasp]

ooh right okay

[hazy eagle]

another optional thing is describing what specific code blocks do with comments (--//)

[dense wasp]

whats pragmas? i just searched it up and its just giving me random wikis

[hazy eagle]

one sec

/types/#type-inference-modes on luau.org

there's WAY more than what it shows on there but it's definitely a good practice

[dense wasp]

thanks!!

i've seen games go from 20fps to 60fps and i've been really wanting to know how to do that lol

[hazy eagle]

--// Pragmas
--!strict
--!nocheck
--!nonstrict
--!nolint
--!native
--!optimize 0
--!optimize 1
--!optimize 2
--!optimize 3

Every pragma roblox has

[dense wasp]

oooh those things

[hazy eagle]

I'm assuming you're used to basic luau

So I would start by trying to learn stuff like metatables, type checking ,etc

[dense wasp]

i know some advanced concepts but i dont know things like this

[dense wasp]

i know metatables and type checking

although i was wondering, is there another use for metatables other than in oop?

[hazy eagle]

sometimes apis

modules are basically apis but

metatables can advance that

i dont really remember anything else

[dense wasp]

awesome, thanks for the help!!

[honest fern]

Meta methods

Are what they can be used for

[regal geyser]

guys lookin for ascripter

dm me

[unreal geode]

thoughts?

[empty tangle]

ik this was like an hour ago but, could i like obfuscate the code, put in on something like github and then acces code from that.
i highly doubt anyone who purchases will go through the process to try and find the code doing that

[hazy eagle]

yes and no

some obfuscators can term you

and plus

this isn't really

ideal

and obfuscators can be deobfuscated

so yeah

[empty tangle]

idr mind that i just want atleast 1 layer of protection i dont think theyre gonna go through effort to do that

[empty tangle]

even if its not a published module on roblox?

[hazy eagle]

well, most obfuscators ARE primarily used for exploiting

so they hide inappropriate messages in the obfuscator and stuff

which then results in termination

[empty tangle]

oh damn

[honest fern]

Only 1 person has to go thru the effort of doing it

Once 1 person has done it then everyone gets the materials

IMO not worth it

[empty tangle]

so my best bet is just hoping that they wont resell my stuff. bc i tried that and its not working

[frank crow]

can anyone help me script a datastore script. chatgpt keeps messing up. bro he uses fireserver in a serverside script😭

[civic crystal]

Any experienced scripter here?

[empty tangle]

💔chatgpt

[honest fern]

Wsp?

[frank crow]

💔black pfp in the big 2026

[empty tangle]

theres many on yt/devforum

[civic crystal]

So uh I need someone to teach me scripting rather than some yt tutorial yk...like someone who questions me and stuff..my past experience with coding is python

[empty tangle]

0 correlation

[frank crow]

this you?

https://tenor.com/view/the-patrick-star-show-the-patrick-show-big-baby-patrick-patrick-star-meme-gif-8802350049829758240

[honest fern]

Meet new people / make friends

I tried to meet a lot of different scripters

You have to be the one asking questions

Make friends w other programmers and ask them questions to better your own knowledge

[civic crystal]

Where exactly do I start if I have some knowledge in python

[honest fern]

Find something you wanna make

Anthing that interests you

Break it down into parts and code from the bottom up

[empty tangle]

look idc about ur childish insults whatever.
im just saying, i dont reccomend using ai like that (bc evidently it has problems) especially for something like datastore scripts. there is a lot about them on yt/devforum and even you can read the docs

[civic crystal]

Is there any book or something?

People suggested brawl dev but I prefer something I can read as a pdf

[frank crow]

u a beginner?

I just learned via tutorials and repeated practice

Roblox docs are there to help you if u have questions regarding code

But you have to be the one to look for it

[frank crow]

bro i tried on dev forum but there were only tutorials on how to make different stuff. and same on yt

nothing is related to what i want

[civic crystal]

Yea

[empty tangle]

what exactly do you want

[civic crystal]

Like I wanna learn the language not follow along the tutorial

[frank crow]

when u click on a part it turns red if you rejoin it stays red. simple as that

[civic crystal]

Dude like half the tutorials on Roblox studio is just them making some specific stuff

Not teaching you how exactly it works

Like in python you gotta know how functions parameters and arguments have to work right
