how to script a custom hotbar

[astral storm]

I made a design of a custom hotbar but idk how to set it as the default hotbar.

it's made on figma so maybe that'll help

also if there are any FULL tutorials that I could watch or read I'm interested

figma is great for drafting things out, but implementing a pencil sketch into the game takes a lot more work and effort than simply drawing a picture. it must be built in roblox.

this may come as a shock but there isn't always going to be an exact step-by-step tutorial for whatever thing you're trying to do. sometimes, you just need to have general knowledge. maybe hire someone or learn how to make guis

like take a tutorial that makes a basic hotbar, and then adapt it to your needs. that's the way the cookie crumbles

[astral storm]

I've been actually trying to figure out how other custom hotbar are made and so far I'm learning some details from the scripts, would probably take some time but I'm willing to put some time and effort on it. Otherwise, I guess I need to just learn it

see you when I make it work

[long torrent]

if you get stuck on something specific and you've spent hours on it and cannot figure it out, those things are the stuff to ask about, and usually they're just simple stupid little mistakes you're getting caught on, but yeah for a whole ui like this you need to learn ui or hire someone unfortunately. you'll get there eventually, i know how much work it can be. i belief in you

[astral storm]

Yeah, I mean, considering that I have only been 4 weeks in this field, I'd say I've got so much improvement. I really want to learn this kind of stuff since I also want to make some income from it for my tuition fee in college. I also want to sell the game if ever I successfully construct it, though right now I'm solo, but I'm going to try and see where I could get

i suggest looking for a regular job, roblox doesn't pay well

[astral storm]

I'm 16 yo lol

[long torrent]

yea go work at walmart or mcdonalds or something, they always looking for young people

you wont have a problem getting a job there if you're persistent enough

[astral storm]

I also got a part-time job at a local cafe near our house.

if you want to work in roblox, you basically need the equivalent of a cs degree

so uhh.. yea don't quit your day job, and focus on getting good grades and go to college

[astral storm]

I haven't

because I just graduated from junior high school

[astral storm]

I sure be doing that

[long torrent]

yea school doesnt last forever. enjoy it while it lasts

[astral storm]

I'm not gonna be like my father

I mean, he's not the worst, but not the best either

[astral storm]

no shit man life is stressful

[long torrent]

so aim to be better, and the best thing you can do is stay in school, pass all your classes, and make something of yourself. be a lawyer or a doctor or something.

[astral storm]

lawyer fits me but I'm into tech nowadays, so yea I'm doing a computer science course

[long torrent]

lawyer fits tech surprisingly well

cs is reading documentation mostly. lawyering is reading legislation mostly.

same same imo

[astral storm]

I also have a bit of experience on programming sites, which didn't really last that long because I had no time to learn coding before.

[long torrent]

ngl getting at least a basic level of understanding how programming and computers work should be taught in every school, but that's just my opinion 🤷

[astral storm]

I'd say yea also because lawyer is also about getting information which fits cs real good

** You are now Level 5! **

[long torrent]

you only need basic level for competency

[long torrent]

aim for the bar exam 😛 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bar_examination

[hushed tree]

some schools have implemented this alr. my school has a cs course

[astral storm]

ikr, I mean literally nowadays everything is virtual, and every school should implement basic knowledge on technologies

[astral storm]

I will be achieving that soon enough

[long torrent]

4 years in law school sounds like a long time..... until 4 years has passed in the blink of an eye. you'll understand someday

anyway didn't mean to derail. the grind keeps on grinding, i belief in you

[astral storm]

I'll keep you updated lol
