istg, if i could model and animate, i could make anything. people say scripting is hard buts it not
just asking for people to give reasons on why its hard
#why people sayscripting so hard its really not

its you who need to give reasons on why it is not hard?
bleak thunder
its you who need to give reasons on why it is not hard?
how
how tf do you want to give me reasons on how its easy
worldly narwhal
what did you code?
bleak thunder
how else do you want me to say ir
multidirectional movement system, top down shooter, gun system, etc
but i kinda quit after my account got banned so those were like 6 months ago
worldly narwhal
sad
still I dont see any difficult there is obvius
difficult is making a whole project
bleak thunder
difficult is making a whole project
top down shooter was a hole project
took like a couple days
worldly narwhal
if it took a couple days it was just for learning
bleak thunder
if it took a couple days it was just for learning
dude scripting is just
oh, ik how to do that. oh, theres a error, let me google it. or look at the docs

multidirectional movement system, top down shooter, gun system, etc
why the need to specify multidirectional?
worldly narwhal
🤔
bleak thunder
why the need to specify multidirectional?
because its multidirectional
warped sable
that's normal roblox?

oh you made strafe?
bleak thunder
oh you made strafe?
uhh ig you can call it that not really it was alot more complex, but sure
it was also climbing and stuff but ok
warped sable
oh neat you added strafe to climbing too?
bleak thunder
you can make strafing in like 20 minutes
warped sable
did you use controllermanager?
bleak thunder
oh neat you added strafe to climbing too?
no
wait 1 sec brb like 2 or 3 minutes i gotta get some food
bleak thunder
did you use controllermanager?
very little bit
warped sable
very little bit
wha? you either did or didn't..
warped sable
so you checked it out and chose not to use it?
bleak thunder
so you checked it out and chose not to use it?
no i did but i didn't use it MUCH

anyway code is not hard, it's nice when you reach that point where you can practically code anything given infinite time and research, that realization point happens for all adept coders, so congrats on reaching this milestone 
. most s2's are at that point already or beyond. most s1's are still figuring it out. it's the libraries and the more complex design patterns that make things hard from this point.

Ig id just say it can be hard but it depends what ur doing. If your just making obbys then ofc its super ez but it your make really complex things then its difficult

because theres a huge slope for the things you need to learn, and after that is when it becomes easy.
for example i know my fair share of stuff, but i don't know how to make a proper strafing system and movement system in roblox. i never really got to it, so i have no clue how i would go about implementing it.
it's the amount of spaces, and the knowledge you need to get for so many scenarios and cases.
you may know raycasting for example, but you might not 100% be aware on how you could use it to make a gun
you might know metatables but youre unsure what oop is good for and how youd use it
you gotta learn everything and the ways to go about doing things before you can truly customize it to the extent you want and extend upon that system with your own ideas and such
wild mural
is this real
errant swift
uh, yeah?
its the research you have to do, the things you need to learn
but the hardest part by far is debugging
debugging takes the most amount of time because of the amount of bugs literally any and every script produces
you can spend a minute to a day on those
or even a week
i remember spending a full day figuring out the MOST simple issue
graceful mirage
or even a week
yeah
errant swift
which was that running a module on the commandbar
if that module requires any other module or has a reference
graceful mirage
it could take up months sometimes
errant swift
those modules are ran twice because of a seperate lua environment
and i found nothing about this!
errant swift
it could take up months sometimes
its especially hard if what youre trying to do isnt covered
the natural solution is to go to devforum but majority of your errors are not covered! like only 1% are
try searching up how to do a turn based system
you find literally nothing other than "oh use state machines"
no general idea, no nothing. just "use this thing but i wont show you how or why this could be useful or even related to what youre trying to do"
thats why i cancelled the idea of learning that at some point
errant swift
how to learn animation
yes and you run into the most dogshit tutorials
which only tells you
how to set it up
graceful mirage
since my animation is just straight up bad lol
errant swift
and doesnt actually teach you techniques
the only difference is alan beckers 12 principles
that holds up extremely well
errant swift
how to make good animation
im a teacher so i could probably
ramble on and on
not an official licensed teacher, but i'm a good explainer
graceful mirage
do you use blender to animate?
errant swift
i'm 15 i couldn't even get a license
yes
a mix of both moon and blender, since both have their uses
graceful mirage
i'm 15 i couldn't even get a license
man you'r eyounger.. i am 18
graceful mirage
the only difference is alan beckers 12 principles
woah there's a principles for animation
damn that's sick ddint know that
errant swift
😭
they are very important principles
and they are in every animation known to man
because thats what makes it good, that's what makes itw ork
even in a dogshit animation its present a lot of the time
alan becker just explains how to do it well, while its regarding 2d animation, everything mentioned applies to 3d animation as well, and the difference is that his main field of expertise is just in 2d animation. it's also only him going over a book a popular disney animator made regarding the 12 principles of animation, BUT with actual animated examples and a great voiceover
graceful mirage
bro i think animation is really hard considering that you have to change every position... of a hand and every body parts
errant swift
theres tools that make it simple. it's easy but time consuming
you dont have to "debug" like you do in scripting
you just polish at most, maybe. that's like refining code
graceful mirage
yeah debugging takes time i get it, that's why i will dont focus for it for now since basically i just learn scripting. 🙂 theres no point of becoming good at it when i can create a lot of games 🙂 but i am most interested now is the gui role and the animation
but i guess i will have to start from scratch..

yeah it's pretty hard to figure out the general idea or way of going about it
you might know the things and the functions used to make it but you just don't quite know how to put it together
and then it falls apart

and then it falls apart
then you learn something from it and try it again, you always do it better the 2nd time

the only hard parts are stuff regarding cframes, a bit of math and that's it. the math part is the only hard part. all the calculating and such which might be too complex if you're doing it entirely by yourself.
for example physics
