Hi, I've been scripting for a year. and in the past 2/4 months, I didn't learn something new. The reason is that I watched all the YouTube videos, and I got to a level that I don't know what now.? because of my scripting abilities I don't reach the level where I can make slightly more complicated systems. So I got stuck, due to my lack of knowledge in the system topic.

So, what do I need to do? How can I get to the highest level?

Slowly improve, I hope you did learn how to debug stuff and google stuff in your path to where you are right now.

If you did then challenge yourself, try researching topics, this does not even have to be for roblox, e.g. you can look at what somebody does on unity and try to use that in roblox studio.
Programming has 1 big advantage, a lot of engines have roughly the same mechanics or alternatives for these mechanics. You can look how others have done it and do that for yourself.

#

If you wish for a few examples of challenges:

-Build your own car from scratch, no vehicle seats, no constraints (there are a lot of non-roblox tutorials on this topic)
-make procedurally generated 3d caves. There's a lot of theory behind this as well
-make a realistic fps system with anticheat.

#

Yes some of those seem hard, but all of them can be broken down in smaller challenges. All are widely explored and there are plenty of people on youtube, the forums and in this server that can help you with issues you encounter while doing it

#

And for some of these systems: sometimes it's better making a few small "shitty" versions of them to explore potential challenges you will encounter in the future. So you can plan ahead better when working on the final version. Also: not down the downsides/issues you encountered with these test versions. They're there to help you plan ahead and fix issues you may encounter. So best write them down somewhere so you don't forget
