beginner what are the basics

[fluid fog]

please help i did some things while scripting
I know variables,functions,comments,events,funtionevents but i don't get how other people while scripting don't have to look up tutorials to like make the stuff they just have a general idea on what to do

[orchid zinc]

vector3, cframes, how to play anims, tweenservices, RunServices, Replicated Storage, Server Scriptervice, learn what the difference from local side scripts and server side and how to communicate with them

[flat sable]

** You are now Level 11! **

[orchid zinc]

theres a lot

learn it

and then just

idk create an ability from anime?

or the system

that you have seen in some game

[fluid fog]

i've messed with cframes and vector 3

i know how to play anims but i tend to forget

i don't know tween services

Run services can you explain taht

i've tinkled with replicated and server

[orchid zinc]

i mean it's kinda the easiest things to understand prob

[fluid fog]

server is hidden client isn't

[orchid zinc]

[fluid fog]

you get things from the server

client is what the player can see

server is the stuff running on the server

[orchid zinc]

not exactly

[fluid fog]

oh

i want to make dialogue

but i don't want an video

i want to know what to do

[orchid zinc]

so lets just say ur doing an ability, u calling it and making cd for it on client side so it would be for one player and then server side it's already an ability so everyone could see it and ability could interact with everyone like hitboxes

maybe bad example but idk really what to say about it

client only happens to you

while server happens to everyone

[fluid fog]

ok

[orchid zinc]

theres function that better on client and others for server

[fluid fog]

how do i make animation server side

[orchid zinc]

im making sum rn so i don' really have time

[fluid fog]

i just got done making a walk animation

[orchid zinc]

and theres no that much people who would explain you

it's a channel where people just gives a hint

how to do sum

[fluid fog]

please give

how do you add cooldown

i never figured that out

parameters are confusing to

like i don't get how they get value

[orchid zinc]

debounce

[fluid fog]

oh

local debounce = true

[orchid zinc]

you do it false at the start

ah

alr

lets just say

[fluid fog]

debounce is a bool right

[orchid zinc]

local debounce = false

script.parent.Activated:Connect(function()
  if not debounce then
    debounce = true
    IDK SOME FUNCTION WHEN YOU ACTIVATE TOOL
  task.wait(3)
  debounce = false
end
end)```

[orchid zinc]

more like a state i would say?

cuz it's true or false

it not has to be named debounce

[fluid fog]

ok

[orchid zinc]

it's just how everyone says

it can be named how you want

[fluid fog]

can run service have night and day

[fluid fog]

to change cframes it's like this right cframe = cframe

[stiff shoal]

how don't we need to look up tutorials? no, we do look things up, it's just more often the documentation than a tutorial. it's just practice and experience. if you spent years building 100 houses, you wouldn't need to look up tutorials either, you would just have a general idea on what to do in practically any situation.

[fluid fog]

ok

[fluid fog]

im trying to add this walk to my game

but it's not working

[orchid zinc]

yep, lets just say theres a thing that you cloned and you have humrp for a example

local clone = workspace.Clone:Clone()
clone.parent = game.workspace
clone.CFrame = humrp.CFrame * CFrame.new(0,0,-3)

[stiff shoal]

it's a design pattern. https://create.roblox.com/docs/scripting/debounce

[orchid zinc]

fr

[fluid fog]

what is humrp

[orchid zinc]

humanoidRootPart

[fluid fog]

i want to think like a game developer

how they are able to fix and debug things

[stiff shoal]

loooots of practice.

[fluid fog]

im learning animation and scripting

how do i balance both ou

[stiff shoal]

if you get stuck on a problem for a week, consider yourself lucky. i've been stuck on problems for much longer than that.

and the more you debug, and practice it, the better you get at it.

[fluid fog]

ok

[stiff shoal]

you're overthinking it. just make stuff. that's how you get experience.

[fluid fog]

ight imma make a walk now

do i just search it up

[stiff shoal]

it's going to be trash to start with, but as long as you don't give up, you'll always do it better the next time.

[fluid fog]

ok

[stiff shoal]

ye that's what i would do, get an idea of what the design pattern is and just do the rest from there.

[fluid fog]

do yall have the blender plugin

for studio

[fluid fog]

@stiff shoal ineed help

how do i change walk animation
