code-discussion

[peak crystal]

dont do that

[nimble violet]

wont it fix if i just put it into a while loop instead? cause then ill have the same like number of runs not dependent on framerate

[peak crystal]

why are u running it every frame

that clearly isnt needed

[nimble violet]

cause its smoother

[peak crystal]

use states

lazy ones

so u aint slamming the client

[nimble violet]

states how?

[peak crystal]

if idle or latched then dont spam it

[nimble violet]

i have that

[peak crystal]

predtermined would help

[nimble violet]

ok lemme explain, when i dash, i have it constantly appling force for dash duration so that i can turn whilst dashing

[peak crystal]

???

why not just have it as a int attribute

[nimble violet]

its nothing to do with states or anything

[peak crystal]

and have the script read off that

[nimble violet]

the issue is that on higher framerates, 240 instead of 60, a RS.heartbeat is gonna run 4x more no?

[peak crystal]

yes

have the server control the playters position

[exotic phoenix]

and the issue is that ur character flips at higher framerates because the calculations are being run however many more times

[dense spade]

use linearVelocity

[exotic phoenix]

Best approach -> scrap the entire project

this bug is clearly unfixable

[peak crystal]

best approach become a famous developer

[exotic phoenix]

best approach set yourself as your pfp

[nimble violet]

best approach just escape + r + enter urself apparently

[exotic phoenix]

and larp

[dense spade]

is that allowrd to be said in this server?

[nimble violet]

idk

if it isnt, sorry

[peak crystal]

I am a skid

get it right

[dense spade]

nice

[exotic phoenix]

so am I actually

I use my youthful testosterone production to build muscle

[peak crystal]

being a proper skid is harder then being a good programmer

[exotic phoenix]

I shall remain the jacked skid

[peak crystal]

you know i'm a dude yea?

my pfp is my girl 🥀

[granite quarry]

[ROBLOX PHYSICS QUESTION] Guys how do i achieve this type of collision in studio, assuming my character is a part too

[exotic phoenix]

my progression looked like this: skid -> system designer

[exotic phoenix]

U mean our girl

[peak crystal]

noi no MY girl

[dense spade]

make floor ice

[peak crystal]

Cframe and or forces

transfer thjje force to a lienarvelocity

and move vroom

or

u can use assembly

ez

[exotic phoenix]

WOOAHH THIS PLACE ABOUT TO BLOOOOW

[granite quarry]

Btw that ball would be a cylinder part, not an actual sphere

[granite quarry]

@peak crystal

[exotic phoenix]

ice floor doesnt transfer velocity does it

[exotic phoenix]

oh yeah that changes everything

no longer possible

I mean if it was a part then maybe

but a cylinder???

[granite quarry]

yes the ball is a part

[peak crystal]

LOL

[granite quarry]

a flat circle

[peak crystal]

bro a circle?

[exotic phoenix]

too far

[granite quarry]

not a sphere

it's a flat circle

[exotic phoenix]

Do not bestow that name upon us

[peak crystal]

hold on let me think how does a circle work

[exotic phoenix]

HAHA!
-# can u give me your girls @

[dense spade]

idk its just my first thought

[exotic phoenix]

loyalty test

[granite quarry]

this

[dense spade]

4D cube?

[peak crystal]

simulated but no

roblox doesnt render 4D

[granite quarry]

like a hockey puck

[dense spade]

ik bro

[peak crystal]

oh yeah this drone movement im loving

full glsaze myself

[dense spade]

connect them vertices with EditableMesh

[rotund pawn]

I want to create delaership where user can browse cars, should I teleport the camera to position and localy show vehicles or create viewportframe over screen? That tbh sounds better, but I would like to add some background fog (lighting effects)

[dense spade]

tp cam to diff place with 3d scenes

[peak crystal]

this is a proper drone system in roblox

[dense spade]

viewport frames💩

[rotund pawn]

Yeah tbh that sounds as better option 😄

[peak crystal]

worldmodel..

[dense spade]

add vr and u got fpv drone sim

[dense spade]

wdym

[peak crystal]

its got VR

[peak crystal]

world model allows for proper lighting and animations

[dense spade]

what abt particle effects? Terrain?

i dont think Animated Textures work too

alot of things dont work on viewport frames

[rotund pawn]

I just need sea, fog, skybox to be visible in browser

[peak crystal]

simulate partials

convert partials to

to parts or mesh parts and use the API to mold them

(ez) (will lag the game)

[dense spade]

i feel like viewports add extra complexity lol, a 3d scene would be more interactive

[peak crystal]

or

u could beat up

roblox

https://klipy.com/gifs/bacon-man-roblox-default-dance

[modern seal]

viewport sucksss u should tp th camera it feels more like a high quality game tht way

viewport is for lazy ppl

and viewports lighting is horrid itll make yr models look likee stinky

[rotund pawn]

Yeah I decide to Just TP camera to subject part, locally create sea and stuff around it. Its way easier

[dense spade]

make the cars like on a podium and when u press to view car stats it zooms in on a tablet beside the car with information,like a real dealership has

[lunar viper]

hi

[quaint tree]

no shit thats just animating the wings and putting the user's camerasubject to the drone's root

then some playing with physical constraints

[peak crystal]

rename urself

to captain obvious

[quaint tree]

you should rename yourself as waste of human remains

[peak crystal]

all I hear is larp

[quaint tree]

skid cant comprehend 1 sentence

[peak crystal]

thats all?

one sided ahh

[quaint tree]

Yes Bro im the Best.

[peak crystal]

people who are truley the best doesnt put 2 capital B's in the wrong spot

just saying

[quaint tree]

Yes Bro See Im The Best.

[peak crystal]

I turned u into a gif

[quaint tree]

Because Im The Best.

I got a Fan!

[peak crystal]

anything but making a game yea?

[quaint tree]

Bro Im Good with you Being My Fan.

Only Skids make Games in LUAU.

[peak crystal]

ongod?

ur bio says Cpp

what u done in cpp

[quaint tree]

Source Engine Bro.

You dont even Know what SE is Bro.

[peak crystal]

dang I dont?

[quaint tree]

Even SE is older than you Bro@

[peak crystal]

ongod?

[quaint tree]

Yes Bro.

30 Years Old Engine.

[peak crystal]

Source engine isnt 30 years old 😭

released in 2004 bozo

replaced GSRC

[quaint tree]

seriously you are a clown to believe google

[peak crystal]

google

[quaint tree]

se existed before its release date lol

[peak crystal]

😭

[quaint tree]

it existed since 1994 or 1996-ish

[peak crystal]

it started in 2000 or just ebfore

bozo

when did half life release

1998

so 1998 to 2004

you chubby little baby

know ur place 👅

[quaint tree]

this guy is bipolar

roasted his ego and now he talking like he works at valve

[peak crystal]

??

its simple research bro

[quaint tree]

google ai research ahhh

[peak crystal]

look at 5 diff sources

[quaint tree]

do you know the game tf2

[peak crystal]

no I wouldnt!

[quaint tree]

its been in works in se since 1993

[peak crystal]

whats that game!

[quaint tree]

🥀

this guys delusional

[peak crystal]

im mocking u

[quaint tree]

Bro You arent Mocking Me Bro.

You are My Fan Bro@

[peak crystal]

u are Ai

actaully

show me a video of

ur Cpp work

[quaint tree]

Yes Bro im Actually Intelligent.

Correct!

[peak crystal]

if ur all that show me some work

[quaint tree]

btw just to stroke ur ego my iqs 124

So Yes Bro im Actually Intelligent.

[peak crystal]

well then lets see here

@quaint tree Skid test!
when opening or creating a port in CPP what would u write stdd and on

[quaint tree]

You Create the Port on ur Forehead Bro.

[peak crystal]

failed

[quaint tree]

Cant Even Shit with My Fan.

[peak crystal]

W larp

[quaint tree]

Holdon Bro Ill Return to You Tryhard Fan When im.Done.

[peak crystal]

ill wait

if u can code a proper remote desktop with sendcode based controls for games like roblox

using CPP

thats the baseline

[amber verge]

https://tenor.com/view/sukuna-sukuna-talking-gif-9280383831709550420

why is gng arguing with an alt im crine

[peak crystal]

bc im lowkey bored of arguing with real people that are just straight dumb

and try to hide it

atleast he isnt

[quaint tree]

Bro U need To code it With the Power of Friendship.

[quaint tree]

why do you use this gif im crine

[quaint tree]

main got deactivated man

hence why i look like a newbie

[peak crystal]

u r a newbie

[amber verge]

whats ur main

ping it

[hasty crater]

i love luau

local thread = coroutine.running()
task.delay(0.5, coroutine.resume, thread, "hello")

local message = task.wait(1)
print(message) --> "hello"

[amber verge]

U sent this already in RSC

[earnest radish]

Does anyone know how to make the player morph match the physics of the morph? (For example, the player is a ball, I want the player to behave like a ball, be able to roll or bounce while still keeping the humanoid feature such as jumping, dying etc..)

[hasty crater]

im collecting all the dev servers like pokemon

[amber verge]

ROdevs

[hasty crater]

too many

[ember nimbus]

local thread = coroutine.running()
task.delay(0.5, coroutine.resume, thread, false)

while task.wait() do
    -- code
end

print("is it so over")

for the people who use while task.wait do

[hasty crater]

changing all my timers to this

[dusky relic]

can you break down what's happening here?

[hasty crater]

Line 2: a function is scheduled to call coroutine.resume(thread, "hello"), where thread was the original thread of the script, after half a second
Line 4: the thread of the script is yielded by task.wait for 1 second
Line 5: Half a second later, the scheduled function runs, resuming the yielded script thread early, passing it "hello" as the return value from the last C function that yielded (task.wait)
Another half-second later, the task.wait will try to resume the script due to the duration elapsing, which will generate an error: cannot resume dead coroutine

"yielding" has no protections, coroutine.resume can short-circuit a yield and give the code that yielded any return value

[ember nimbus]

tbh i think this issue shows elegant design

there is no separate system for task.wait

it uses the same as everything else

oh the task.wait also trys resuming it?

i'm not getting an error when i run it

just resumes a bit early

[hasty crater]

the oddity is more that there is no "protection", there is nothing stopping you from short-circuiting a yield from an API that you didn't intend to, no "cookies" as i've seen someone call it

[hasty crater]

i did not test this on roblox but it should be creating an error message when task.wait eventually gets around to trying to resume the thread, could indicate something weird but that's not the main "interesting" thing about this behaviour to me

[ember nimbus]

writing task.delay(0.5, coroutine.resume, thread, false) is 1:1 with this action ❤️

[hasty crater]

yeah haha

coroutine library is rarely used anyway (other than maybe .wrap(fn)() but i see more people using task.spawn)

but hey i can inject a little more chaos into every codebase with this, keep the interns on their toes

it's a fun way to break type safety because it means that any function that yields can actually just return anything

[silk gorge]

How would I approach making a pogo stick, That can lean without walking and when jumping it would jump into that lean direction?

[quaint tree]

how can i ping it if the accounts gone cro

[formal acorn]

any cheap brainrot packs yall recommend

[hardy holly]

Check the toolbox

[hardy holly]

Put this in ur pogo stick model:

Script.parent
W = lean + jump

[remote root]

how to tezst my limits in scripting

[neat escarp]

raycasting hitboxes is the best for hit detection?

[formal acorn]

no

[copper spindle]

Why?

[neat escarp]

then what is ?

[copper spindle]

My question is also the same @formal acorn

[copper spindle]

In my opinion raycasting is the best if you use guns and arrows

And similar stuffs like an bullet.

[neat escarp]

hmm

idk im watching few tutorials about it and it is getting confusing very fast

[copper spindle]

You can also use params which is a plus point if you wanna add skills per character or something like that

[copper spindle]

Had you learnt about CFrames, TweenService and Run service?

[neat escarp]

no i just started like few weeks ago

i should prob learn tho 😭

[copper spindle]

Those are the basic things to be learnt before ray casting

Those are easier than you think

Get familiar with those things first

[neat escarp]

how should i learn them tho?

[copper spindle]

Youtube tutorials and AIs.

[copper spindle]

Watch some brawldev tutorials.

[neat escarp]

i watched the basic one and few of the advanced

but he never goes in detail about advanced systems

[copper spindle]

@neat escarp yeah, that's understandable get familiar with CFrames first bro.

[neat escarp]

ok ill try ty

[gray hatch]

hi guys

any ideas of a script i can make for applying to the lua scripter role?

[icy bone]

rojo is killing me bro

fucking version mismatch 24/7

[alpine dirge]

real talk

[proud bloom]

do someone know a person that can make a admin absuse panel for me in good price?

[austere garnet]

Shoot @kind fulcrum a dm he'll help you figure it out

[kind fulcrum]

😭

[granite quarry]

uh oh

what is happening

[pale rose]

show me line 10

[pale rose]

the script, show me pls so i can see better

Yo guys, do u put all UI in starter GUI , or on replicatedStorage so code can put on PlayerGui?

I made a LoaderUI, and code just put on PlayerGui so dint need use stupid WaitForChild all time, and be faster to start

but the UI maker dint like that, so i want to know how u guys made it

[empty tangle]

how do i achieve being able to climb left and right like in the video? is it some sort of configuration that was made to the trusses or is it just a custom climbing system

[iron kraken]

custom

climbing is just regular humanoid behavior and u cant change that

pretty easy to do tho just get input and move up down left or right

[jagged quartz]

i need someone to help me rq

[icy bone]

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/1138164798652166264/1356660807928123472/uwah.gif

@jagged quartz do you need help or are you just saying it

for the love of the game

[jovial crown]

did 'Eazy' dm you perhaps?

[empty tangle]

this guy did

[jovial crown]

no i meant did you decide to do that game yourself or someone wanted to hire u on it

[empty tangle]

doing it myself and maybe making template

depending on if the playercount increases/decreases

[jovial crown]

ur the guy which uses ai everywhere right?

[empty tangle]

no? 🤣

where did u get that from

[jovial crown]

the guy w the same pfp was yapping about how good ai Is

[empty tangle]

alot of ppl have a black pfp bro

[jovial crown]

nOPE

[pale rose]

I use AI to learn or tell me some direction

To code is bad for some reasons

[jovial crown]

i don't think ai is the right teacher

[hearty lion]

You might have overdone it

[pale rose]

Dont to teach me

[jovial crown]

its no differnet than just asking it to code to you

[pale rose]

and yh to tell me where i can found

or just simple explain

[pale rose]

wt is pfp?

[empty tangle]

profile pic

[pale rose]

kk

yguys alread use Matter?

or saw about ECS

[modern mulch]

for module scripts whats the difference between playerclass.new and playerclass:new

[icy heron]

one is a method

[modern mulch]

and whats the other one

[icy heron]

uh

i dont actually know

: passes itself though

as its first arg or whatever

[icy heron]

as in what theyre called

[modern mulch]

like it passes the table?

[icy heron]

uhhh

basically

a.b() passes nothing automatically

a:b() passes a:b(a)

[weak radish]

Anyone with 2+ years in luau, what are your rates

[icy heron]

10000 robux a hour

[modern mulch]

what is the point of passing itself?

[icy heron]

shorter code

and easier to write sometimes

also for metamethods or metatables

[weak radish]

is this serious or a joke, it could easily be either

[modern mulch]

whats the difference between a metamethod and metatable

[icy heron]

jokes aside, US min wage would be around 3300 robux a hour

but hourly pay is a shitty method for anything code related

[weak radish]

Yeah and us minimum wage sucks

[weak radish]

If you charge per task you have to know how much you value your time to get an estimate

[icy heron]

^

but yeah basically it depends on what you do

[icy heron]

basically

methamethods are the functions or whatever

metatables hold the functions

[weak radish]

I was thinking 20$/hour but idk if there are enough Devs willing to pay that

[modern mulch]

fuh no

they prob gonna do per day

or week

or based on the system

[icy heron]

it depends on what your even meant to do tbh but yea its pretty reasonable just as you said, doubt many people will pay you that

[weak radish]

I don't charge per hour but I use it to estimate tasks

[modern mulch]

oh my fault

[weak radish]

Rn I do partial upfront and milestones for large projects but sometimes it varies

but yeah I charge per task

[young willow]

Yo

[untold breach]

tf the Sigmoids functions means

[icy heron]

isnt that for ML

or am i tripping

[untold breach]

I don't think so I found someone who explained it but it's complicated asf

[wild ember]

yes i used it when i was making an OCR

[tranquil tangle]

guys im tryna make a 1v1 fighting game how do i make those queue pads like in rivals or something, i suck at this

[heady spire]

how does contentprovider work, what does preloadasync actually do for animations? do i still need to do load animation on the character animator because im not sure if preloadasync actually returns an animationtrack doesnt seem to return anything

[bold hound]

Preloads assets.

[icy heron]

whats something i can do for my beginner scripter thing

idk what i can weite

[limpid veldt]

do you want to buy my system? it's a fps system

[weak radish]

What are the chances chatgpt coded it and it was made within 2 days

[icy heron]

10 minutes*

[limpid veldt]

nope

[icy heron]

Anyways fps stuff is useless when you have shift f5

😭

[limpid veldt]

no a First Person Shooter

[weak radish]

why would someone pay for a premade FPS system, there's tons of stuff free

[weak radish]

what

[icy heron]

Ohhh

that kind of fps

💀

[icy heron]

Frames per second

thought they meant that

[weak radish]

what kind of a system is a frames per second system 🥀

[south acorn]

Profileless and joined today...

[limpid veldt]

nuh

[bold hound]

That‘s a bad sign..

[icy heron]

Guys

[limpid veldt]

see

look in your dms

[snow veldt]

for me personally I found that I learnt best by :

• Watching 1 Tutorial that covers the basics like variables, for loops, while loops etc..

• Start a basic project, it can be anything as long as it's kind of small like a shooting game

• When you need something, don't go watch videos that cover the whole system, think about what you need to accomplish it, and research that ONE thing

[icy heron]

No

My ossue isnt that I just dont know what to script

[snow veldt]

make a game

[limpid veldt]

look in dm's

[icy heron]

thats the issue 😭

[snow veldt]

start one game and boom

[bold hound]

Do a tower defense.

[icy heron]

I'm not interested

[snow veldt]

you will know a million things you need to code

that you wouldnt have guessed

[icy heron]

thats the issue dude

I DONT KNOW WHAT TO CODE

[bold hound]

🥀

[snow veldt]

fairs

[icy heron]

It needs to be 200 or so lines why would i make it harder for mysekf and do a whole game

[snow veldt]

that is understandable

[snow veldt]

tower defence would take thousands of lines not gonna lie bro

[bold hound]

Maybe minimum 3,000.

[icy heron]

I mean i have a component based magic system i made but I doubt it counts as complex enough to count so 💔

[weak radish]

Finally someone not saying ai, I'm heavy on #3 that's so helpful but in my experience trying to make a working game at the beginning can be setting up high standards, sometimes just making tiny systems can be more manageable

[icy heron]

^ absolutely agree btw

[bold hound]

Counts.

[icy heron]

Eh its literally just calling some modules backwards and stuff

Don't think it would

[bold hound]

Counts.

To me, even if you just opened studio once, created one part, you are a developer.

Same for every other skillset.

I don‘t have high standards.

[icy heron]

uh huh

your not a application reader though so irrelevant 😭

[bold hound]

[icy heron]

🙏

Im sorry veo

Oh wait

[snow veldt]

you can do it

[icy heron]

I made a genetic algorithm for this

[snow veldt]

i believe in you .hyprland

[icy heron]

That might count

tho I lowk barely tested it

eh ill see 👀

[icy heron]

ty man

[hardy holly]

It's good to want to learn how to code on your own, but that shouldn't be your main focus imo, I think once you can read code and understand the systems and each function, then you should use AI to do 90% of the writing.
Writing everything manually just isnt viable in the current market

[cobalt pewter]

where

like

yt tutorials

or

[south bridge]

yt and docs

[wild ember]

learn the absolute basics and then literally just start ur dream project whilst using ai tbh and try to understand the architecture and you’ll get the rest along the way ig probably i would say

would probably just learn how to install rojo and github copilot and you’ll be good to go

[shut harbor]

What’d I do

[faint stump]

no info

[jagged mortar]

My bad

[regal salmon]

#marketplace-info

[jagged mortar]

I have a question

[regal salmon]

what's up?

[jagged mortar]

I meant for free everyone on there costs a lot

And I’m looking for like a team to make friends

[regal salmon]

you're doing it percentage-based, aren't you?

[jagged mortar]

I’m not sure

It’s like we all look for who needs a job then all work on it and split the robux and stuff

I’m sorry

[regal salmon]

so yes, percentage-based

[jagged mortar]

Yes then

[regal salmon]

hiring in these dev channels isn't allowed, and i don't think sole-percentage projects are allowed in the marketplace either, but you can take a look

[jagged mortar]

Ok I’ll check but where can I ask if not there?

[regal salmon]

not sure, ask in #staff-help

[jagged mortar]

Are you good at lua

?

[regal salmon]

i am, but i'm not interested in joining a dev team at the moment

[jagged mortar]

No not that

Need some help with a round system

But I have no one to guide or help me

    countdown(INTTIME) -- starts the countdown next i need to do the teleport
    
    if #Players:GetPlayers() < MINPLR then
        setStatus("Not enough players returning to lobby")

    countdown(RTIME)
    
    setStatus("Round Has Ended!")
    task.wait(3)
end```

I’m doing my best but don’t know how to do the teleport

[regal salmon]

is this on the server?

[jagged mortar]

Yes

Serverscriptservice

[regal salmon]

StarterGui is not how you access player guis, i suggest using a RemoteEvent to fire to clients and handling gui stuff in a local script instead

but if you want to directly access a player's gui, it's under Player.PlayerGui

StarterGui just contains the templates for the gui

[jagged mortar]

Thanks bro

1 more question

Do you know anyone that tutors luau for free?

[regal salmon]

loop through all the players and set their character HumanoidRootPart's cframe to where you want it to be

or use :PivotTo() on their character model and pass in the target CFrame

[regal salmon]

i do not, sorry

[jagged mortar]

Thank you

[jagged mortar]

Thank you for everything though your so helpful and have a great day goodnight friend

[regal salmon]

no problem, you too

[plush badge]

does it exist a bot that does rbx2discord

[regal salmon]

what is rbx2discord?

[plush badge]

A bot that finds people discords linked to their roblox

not bloxlink or rover

Like u type the person robloxuser and it gives the discord user

[lavish matrix]

@regal salmon can I please get some help. I sent the issue video in dms. Because, for some reason it wouldn’t let me send it here.

[regal salmon]

[worn pawn]

haven't posted in awhile, but made this grid placement system in a few hours tonight and happy with how it turned out. any suggestions on helping reduce bounding box without setting it manually? Or is that the best method?

[azure lark]

is it worth using --!strict on all of my scripts

[rapid verge]

learn the basics with brawl dev
once you've done that start learning CS concepts like datastructures and programming patterns like OOP

then go make systems/frameworks/libraries, things like UI formatters or signal module
everytime you make one, save it to your device

games take too much effort at your stage, your objective is to isolate your learning to scripting

once you're ready to make a game, you can just drag and drop those things in to speed up progress by like 20%

[misty bay]

its personal preferrance and i like it and use them in all scripts

[weak radish]

if you use ai before you know how to code you're gonna spend weeks debugging it

also wdym "writing isn't viable in the current market"? If you're working in a long term project you need to be able to write code otherwise you aren't gonna stay there long lol

[dim compass]

the chair isnt being placed directly on the mouse's location but slightly above it

is that intentional?

[rotund pawn]

Currently implementing area notification to my project, when user gets near Point (or in range), they get a notification where they are. What are some easy checks to do?
I do not want to spam server by checking distance from all areas to player, so I might just create local script checking nearest Point and set current area locally

[dim compass]

is it jsut visual or does it affect gameplay for other players

[rotund pawn]

Just a visual "You have entered this area", so I think local script with Server Validation if user is really there (XP for exploring area) is the best approach

What would you use to check the distance? Areas are far away, mostly islands

[jaunty vessel]

Any clue on how discord bots like bloxiana take calatog avatar outfit codes n turns takes their item IDs?

[dim compass]

do all the calculations on the client using boundingboxes to determine if the character is there
and then if it is show the visual notification and fire to the server
the server then does its own bounding box check to determine if the character is really in that area

[frail plaza]

is this the prper way to use bytenet?

[rotund pawn]

Wouldn't the distance to the primary part of model be easier? It is huge sea and most islands need notification when entering

[tidal heron]

Make a part and do .Touched 😭?

[dim compass]

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/1162470201833574493/1261851124239962202/attachment.gif

[dim compass]

sure you can do that too

id still recommend bounding boxes or other spatial queries though

[tidal heron]

isn't it the same thing

[dim compass]

.Touched relies on the physics engine which would be extremely unstable for this kind of thing

[tidal heron]

i thought calculating the distance all the time would be heavy

[dim compass]

nope actually

its pretty light

[rotund pawn]

I think that based on island distance, user can see at most 3 islands (so others are nil), so local script loops thru 3 models and checks their distance each 1-3 seconds

[tidal heron]

that's true

[dim compass]

you can actually be checking every heartbeat and there probably wouldnt be any noticeable difference

[tulip seal]

In a sort of hybrid combat game. I have 2 options, upon doing any form of attack do bounding box on the playerside and validate on server. Or send a remoteEvent and let the server handle part detection etc. This would prevent exploiting, but cause client delay

[dim compass]

implement some kind of rollback netcode i guess

[tulip seal]

What does that mean?

nvm I understand

[dim compass]

server predicts the players input and if its wrong it rolls back a frame or two
but it might be a little too advanced so perhaps the first option?

[tulip seal]

Yeah I'll do that. It does sounds like an interesting topic to get back into though

[rotund pawn]

Okay, also what is the best way to play animation on character?
I want server to FireAllClients(Char,AnimID), is that correct way or are there some sorf of default roblox replication?

[dim compass]

wdym default replication?

also, playing your animations locally on the client (on that client's character) replicates it to everyone

[quaint tree]

[dim compass]

https://tenor.com/view/ohio-confusion-i-show-speed-ishowspeed-speed-ohio-gif-18271165267203003105

[rotund pawn]

Thats the replication Iwas talking about 😄
I currently have Server for Hitbox, Client for effects for spell casting game. so I can just include the animation play in Module that is being executed on all clients?

[quaint tree]

fake news

[dim compass]

sure i guess

Hello Everyone, I am a Discord Bot Developer looking to help people who need custom bots! Send me a DM if you would like to ask me something about a bot or you would like one made! Thanks for your time and I hope some people will contact me 🙂 (I can make literally anything.

[plucky depot]

what do i do to make a weapon welded to my character without it being a tool

i was thinking just do a starter character with it as the simplest way since my game would eventually have character customization

wrong channel fuck

[neat escarp]

what is better for melee combat system , shape casting or ray casting?

[plucky depot]

is shape casting using parts

like aba or something

[neat escarp]

Shapecasting does not use physical Parts, it is a mathematical "ghost sweep" that calculates if an imaginary 3D volume (like a sphere) touched an enemy along the path your arm traveled between frames.

[plucky depot]

ive honestly never heard of shapecasting in my LIFE

but i found a module called client cast if you wanna look at it

[neat escarp]

i encountered it while learning to make and use combat modules like Raycast Hitbox 4.01 and they said this :
"This resource is no longer supported and has been superseded by ShapecastHitbox. While the library is still usable today, it contains some bugs and performance issues that the original team is no longer addressing. You are welcome to fork the project and publish improvements if you wish."

[slender yew]

why does my rig properly animate in roblox animator but not in moon animator

[plucky depot]

oh what

where did they say that

[pale rose]

I was programming and came across an interesting problem: if I were to create a ViewModel, would I have to replicate the character animations in the view?

I believe I can bypass this with Weld or Motor6D, how do you guys do it?

[zenith pollen]

Do u have the proper primary part

[humble gorge]

how do I transfer my game into my group?

[quaint tree]

you need to pay 30k robux to do that if its already published

[humble gorge]

??

[quaint tree]

yes

roblox allows transfers only for 30k robux if the games already published

[quaint tree]

nvm they changed it since 2020

https://devforum.roblox.com/t/how-to-change-ownership-of-game-to-a-group/626186/5

back then u had to contact roblox and pay a 30k fine

[humble gorge]

k

I transferred it

[obsidian trail]

@silver night

[silver night]

ok hi

so what type of scrolling are you talking about? Because the only "side scrolling" I know of is like, a scroll bar on a UI

which is easy to make if thats what you mean

[obsidian trail]

I am an artist, sound designer, and planner. I would like to implement a side-scrolling game, but I am wondering if it is possible. I do not know much about coding.

🤔

[silver night]

Can you maybe explain it more?

[obsidian trail]

A simple example would be Metal Slug.

This is a side-scrolling action game.

[silver night]

oh so kind of like, doom?

correct me if im wrong

[obsidian trail]

uh doom is The game is first-person

[silver night]

but is it similar?

[obsidian trail]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=160yeevCIuc

like this

The screen moves based on the character.

[silver night]

oh oh

yes that'd be possible

[obsidian trail]

oh :D!

[silver night]

Theres a game that has that actually, if I could find it I would link it

[obsidian trail]

Thank you very muchI'm looking into it too, but I'm a little confused because there are a lot of games that aren't the style I'm thinking of.

[silver night]

Ill dm you the link

want me to send u the file

[candid fox]

start the game then go into explorer, players, go into your playergui then find the gui name and search it up in find all (Ctrl + Shift + F)

[balmy frost]

sometimes it doesn't show for me when im in the game

but it def shows for other accounts

id probably just disable all the scripts in your game then re- enable them and see which is causing it

[knotty glacier]

You using HD?

[lost pebble]

If you mean giving your npcs random stats by “random npcs,” you would just use functions. You can store these functions in a module script if you’d like. Metatables are really only used when implementing oop

hi

[pale rose]

Hey mans, how yours render smt on client, and use that thing on server?

Lets take exemple a gun, that gun will be render on all client, but this is not interessant to be render on Server, just know some aspects in world, like position

I try to just Make a part in world, and, on client i transform that part in a modelled gun

Idk if is the best way to do that, or if this is really necessary, so.. someaone can help me?

[rare cradle]

how long does it take for the middleman to contact me?

[icy bone]

[icy bone]

Because you're calling a nil value the error is pretty self explanatory

[bleak glade]

this is good practice for things like tower defenses where you have a lot of NPCS such as towers and enemies, but i dont get the point of doing this for tools?

[icy bone]

You understood those sentences yoda

crazy

[pale rose]

I give example of tools but.. i rlly dont know how apply that , whether it's in tools or other things, how do you do that? part on server and render on client? this is what im confused 😅

and sorry for bad english, its not my main language

[icy bone]

It's not beneficial for tools.

[pale rose]

Okok, look, lets just ignore the tool part, its really a bad example that i do

Lets focus on how apply that in all other things in game that rlly need that

[lapis haven]

hes not asking if its beneficial for tools he's asking how do people handle rendering on the client but validation on the server

[pale rose]

yeahh ty

[potent igloo]

using vfx replication for example:
instead of doing this on the server:

local vfx = game.ReplicatedStorage.VFX:Clone()
vfx.Parent = workspace
vfx.ParticleEmitter:Emit(10)

you do this on the server:

event:FireAllClients()

and this on the client:

event.OnClientEvent:Connect(function()
  local vfx = game.ReplicatedStorage.VFX:Clone()
  vfx.Parent = workspace
  vfx.ParticleEmitter:Emit(10)
end)

this is good because when you create the vfx on the server, the server automatically replicates all properties and stuff to the clients, including stuff that the client could have predicted by itself

[brazen sphinx]

holy W 🔥

[potent igloo]

so instead of creating the vfx on the server, its good to tell the clients only small info necessary to create the vfx

this will reduce bandwidth and reduce the amount of operations on the server at the same time, which will reduce ping

[pale rose]

Cool, this is good, if u are creating a npc for example, just create a part on server and renderize all stufss on client, its the best way to do that yh?

[potent igloo]

you dont even need a part on the server actually, you could just store a cframe somewhere and let that be the npc

so you just replicate the name of the npc, and the cframe

and the client renders it

but this is gonna be kinda hard to do so you might wanna look into chronos custom replication

[pale rose]

the problem about that way its.. npc will make a lot of moves, fire to client all that changes its a bad pratic no?

[pale rose]

let me search

[potent igloo]

just replicate what the client needs to know

if there are moves that are easy to predict, let the client do it

like, if your npc is walking from point A to B, you dont need to replicate each intermediate position between A and B, you just need to tell the clients that the npc is gonna walk from A to B

[pale rose]

Cool, ty , im gonna search about chrono and try to replicate what u say

[clever mist]

does tping anchored parts then unanchoring use less network than tping unanchored

[fervent lintel]

I'd imagine so? Would you leave the part anchored after teleporting?

Oh wait

anchored parts then unanchoring

im so blind god fuck i got to increase my font size so i can read better

teleporting them unanchored then unanchoring would be heavier (though it won't like tank your performance right off the bat ofc)

[clever mist]

so i just tp them unanchored

[warm wave]

yo, I am having a little problem. I am trying to stop a running local function that has a while loop in it. but I can figure out how

[nimble bear]

uhhh when would you like it to end

[warm wave]

I have it where when the player pressed the jump button or Space, it stops the function

[nimble bear]

oh

[warm wave]

slidethread = coroutine.create(slide)

local function startslide()
if not isSliding then
slidethread = coroutine.create(slide)
coroutine.resume(slidethread)
end
end
local function stopslide()
isSliding = false
coroutine.close(slidethread)
end

if Humanoid.FloorMaterial ~= Enum.Material.Air then

    if input.KeyCode == keybind then
        startslide()
        print(coroutine.status(slidethread))
    end
        

    
end
if input.KeyCode == Enum.KeyCode.Space then
    if isSliding == true then
        stopslide()
        unslide()
        print(coroutine.status(slidethread))
    end
end

[nimble bear]

WHAT i dont know about coroutine lol

idk what to tell u 😢😢

[warm wave]

oh shoot ok, yeah I am learning about it rn lol

eh

[nimble bear]

cant u just like

put an if

or maybe add a multiplier

[warm wave]

i tried so many ways man

[nimble bear]

uhh

maybe do it without coroutine¿? 🤔🤔

[warm wave]

i tried it with task and that also did not work

[nimble bear]

wait is coroutine where the loop isss st

[nimble bear]

task.spawn???

[warm wave]

ye

[nimble bear]

uhh

why not just a normal function¿?

[warm wave]

it does not work with just called the slide() function and unsilde() function

[nimble bear]

ohhh

[pale rose]

What is corontine

[warm wave]

calling*

[nimble bear]

i see what u trying to do i think

[warm wave]

a alien language

[pale rose]

Damn lol

[warm wave]

my little brain is trying to learn it

[nimble bear]

why dont you try to add like

a value necesaary for the while..

and when you cancel it.. the value gets changed

and the while doesnt work

[warm wave]

while elapsed < slideDuration and isSliding do
local dt = task.wait(0.1)
elapsed += dt

    slide.Velocity *= 0.7
end

[pale rose]

I feel that when i Learn about ECS

[warm wave]

this is what I got for the while

[nimble bear]

oh i see

why dont you make the while print the isSliding value

that way you can know if its changing or not inside the coroutine

[warm wave]

oh let me try that

nope, it true the whole time, does not change when I press jump 🙁

[nimble bear]

bruh 😢

uhh

[warm wave]

i knooowww

[nimble bear]

🥹🥹🥹

wait what do u know

[warm wave]

wdym

about the script or coding

[nimble bear]

i meant like what do u mean with i knowww

[warm wave]

oh, I was just doing the" i know right"

welp, ima go try to figure out this for the next 5 weeks

cya 🥹

[nimble bear]

cant u just use a normal function and instead of cancelling or creating the coroutine u just change the value of isSliding

[torn holly]

Yall, how does one have a mana system in replicated storage without that state being replicated to other clients

[nimble bear]

hUh

uhhh

i guess you can make the server give it to the only person who should have it

instead of using replicated storage

wdym

Yo ! Guys.

How can i check if a player is standing on the danger zone or not. I tried making a table and changing its values. BUt it turned out to be give values unexpectedly

[hoary cedar]

Do an XZ boundary check. If the Y axis counts, then you can do a normal spatial query

You can also cast a ray downward

[rapid verge]

parent the sound to workspace and activate it using a server script

[copper spindle]

Bo, I just got the error

[copper spindle]

The HRP here is the humanoidRootPart of the NPC, I have to check is the HumanoidRootPart of the plr is touching the zone

[copper spindle]

I will also try ray casting in the future

[distant hamlet]

just do an extends check

[copper spindle]

What's that ?

[distant hamlet]

local function aabbvsaabb(p1: Vector3, p2: Vector3, s1: Vector3, s2: Vector3): boolean
    local h1 = s1 * 0.5
    local h2 = s2 * 0.5

    return
        math.abs(p1.X - p2.X) <= (h1.X + h2.X) and
        math.abs(p1.Y - p2.Y) <= (h1.Y + h2.Y) and
        math.abs(p1.Z - p2.Z) <= (h1.Z + h2.Z)
end

[copper spindle]

oi oi oi, Wht's this.

what is p1, p2, s1 and s2 ?

[distant hamlet]

position and size

[copper spindle]

Oh, okay

[distant hamlet]

of the zone hirbox and hrp

make sure they are axis aligned

[copper spindle]

Let me try this

[dense drift]

@fading onyx unban me please

[small oak]

Can someone please help with a GITHUB issue?

[copper spindle]

What was that bro ?

[small oak]

Huh?/

[copper spindle]

huh ?

[somber vault]

hello can someone rate my module

its not that big

its l;ike only 350 lines long

[modern brook]

hey guys...

does anyone... know how to script a moving ferris wheel

[coarse monolith]

I do.

[somber vault]

[half cobalt]

@modern seal

whats wrong with you

[covert locust]

whats a better way to script? right now the way i script is to just put a bunch of shit in and then recode all of it when im satisfied

[dense spade]

why recode? like organize the code?

[severe gorge]

iam new to scripting i want to become a pro can yall just me resources for it i have like braw dev beginner and advanced videos can yall help me

[keen spindle]

Hola bro wanna learn with me? I dont have source (or its basic)

U dont need to learn from resources

Js learn what u want

[severe gorge]

okay

[keen spindle]

Gonna learn with me?

[severe gorge]

you are a learner too?

[keen spindle]

Yepp

[severe gorge]

iam a modeller too tho lol

[keen spindle]

[severe gorge]

accept my req

[polar edge]

can someone help me i`m creating a jjk based games but i cant figur out how to make domains so i went to jjs and i cant figure out how they do domains without changing the players positions

[covert locust]

i make shitty code fast and then when im satisfied with it, i go refine it

basically make a rough draft first

im wondering if theres a better way to do this

[bold hound]

JJK?

[neat ether]

There are tons of ways to do this depending on what you specifically wanna do visuals wise.

An example I can give is making it so when a player uses their domain you can clone a large hollow invisible sphere over their position and tween it's transparency

Not saying this is how JJS does it or that it's a particularly elegant way to do it

Just giving you an example to go off of

Whats a good way to add time scale to roblox?

Ive tried this before but the crappy roblox engine has some weird quirks once you start slowing things down too much.

And clues?

Another problem with my system before is that, even though you could slow down physics multiple times to create a gradual slow down effect, it would mess up physics and wouldnt be accurate.

[bold hound]

What do you mean by time scale?

[static coral]

make your own physics

[rose notch]

Most game engines have a universal timescale property, which dictates how fast time is moving.

Roblox does not have an option for timescale on physics calculations, except they do because particle emitters have a timescale property which works exactly as I have just explained it.

You can do it rn and create a particle emitter, then search for the timescale property,
Then just set it to whatever.

But physics is a no go for some weird reason

What

[rose notch]

That could work if I really put in the time and effort but if I do that I also have to code a custom collision system, and all AssemblyLinearVelocity properties would become useless.

Plus why is it so difficult and clunky in the first place

[neat ether]

If you don't mind using it Server Authority basically ensures that the code you use will run 60 times a second and be synced across client and server

[rose notch]

Server Authority?

I havent heard of that before

[neat ether]

It's just their official form of Client Side prediction

[rose notch]

Oh

[neat ether]

Adds a method to runservice called BindToSimulation which ensures that everything it runs runs 60 times a second

Even if engine has to slow down or speed up to compensate

Since you have that consistency you can use it to change your timescale however you want

[rose notch]

Give an example

Because I think I see where ur going but im not sure

[neat ether]

For example, you want something to happen every 10 frames. You can just use GetServerTimeNow as a clock. Store it as a variable

Then take the difference between the actual clock and the variable, divide it by 10 and math.floor it

You'll have a value that changes by 1 every 10 frames

That you can do whatever with

Doesn't have to be frames

Can just use unix time

[static coral]

should use run service instead

[neat ether]

You can use accumulator logic for this

But syncing across clients is kind of a pain in the ass

[rose notch]

O thats, kinda cool actually.
But how am I supposed to slow down the physica roblox already applies normally

Actually is there a way to access the velocity that is applied to parts in roblox?

[pastel pine]

However you make conveyors is the same way you check velocity

I forgot the property name tho

You can also just use velocity force object

[nimble bear]

yeah but the billboardgui goes thru the floor and it also doesnt have a 3d shape so yeah 😞😢😭

[pastel pine]

I'm pretty sure

I used it for making a helicopter spin once but that was a few months ago

[nimble bear]

yeah i think thats how conveyors work

[copper spindle]

Bro, u took more than 10 hrs to reply for that

[nimble bear]

i was sleeping LOL

[copper spindle]

Then can you try decals or textures. If you don't want the billboards. @nimble bear

Maybe textures must work for you

[nimble bear]

yeah but their images depend on where you're watching the surface from instead of always looking the same from all places

im trying to make like ender portal thingie

[copper spindle]

Is that part a ball

[nimble bear]

[humble gorge]

W/L thumbnail? spent a few hours on making it

[copper spindle]

Then try Modelling on blender. Or use meshparts.

[copper spindle]

What is the title of the game??

Its good but it looks kinda plain

[humble gorge]

Obby for Brainrots

[copper spindle]

Can you try adding anykind of text on the tumbnail like obby at the centre top of the tumbnail

[humble gorge]

can't I used photopea

and this is the game screenshot

[copper spindle]

I don't know. That's up to u bro

[humble gorge]

it's my first thumbnail btw

[copper spindle]

That's nice bro.

I am not complaining about your first try

[humble gorge]

na Idm complaining

I'm tryna get better

it won't affect my mental health because my mental health is already horrible

[copper spindle]

Bruh its actually nice one

Bro

[humble gorge]

I barely survived the first few days of 2023 and the last week of 2022

I couldn't drink water without vomiting when 2023 started

[copper spindle]

Yo "

[humble gorge]

ty

[copper spindle]

Yeah i am not lying its good

[humble gorge]

I won't press esc r enter IRL

because my family would be sad

[humble gorge]

ty

I am gonna make the stupidest decision of my life by spending 1k robux on ads

[copper spindle]

Try adding some king of text like OBBY for BRAINROTS

[humble gorge]

alr

[copper spindle]

Brainrots game blow up even if its bad. Don't worry, it worths

[humble gorge]

ye Ik

I would go to sleep rn but I've only been awake for 12h

I'm usually awake for 15h
