SCRIPT TO RUN

[ionic marsh]

I have this script to run when I double-click on "W" but I wanted to add other keys in addition to "W" as well. Does anyone know how to easily add more keys?

[idle shell]

copy and paste it bro

holy

if input == "s"

if input == "h"

please use your brain

[sullen bay]

inefficient slop, can use actionservice to check for multiple inputs without 10 if statements

[thorn rampart]

** You are now Level 4! **

[sullen bay]

ironic 😂

[idle shell]

hes a beginner. you shouldnt be giving him things that will hurt his brain

make it simple for him you moron

fucking morons like you ruin rsc btw

if he had multiple if statements he could organize them with multiple other connection functions

or using CAS

[sullen bay]

insulting him and giving him inefficient solutions hurt his brain more now and in the long-term stfu

[idle shell]

but CAS isnt easy because hes obviously a beginner

[idle shell]

what r u talking about?

no it doesnt

[sullen bay]

cas is easier wym

[idle shell]

we were both beginner and we both used UIS

[idle shell]

LMAO

you have to learn a bunch about other things when doing cas

do you have a brain?

[sullen bay]

no u don't it's two new things, the function itself, and how it works

[idle shell]

you have to read the documentation for like a long time

half the things in cas he doesnt know

learn how to bind learn about context and actions

[sullen bay]

ContextActionService:BindAction("Run", Run, true, "w", Enum.KeyCode.S)--add other running buttons
These two are the only things he has to understand before he can implement it

[idle shell]

input objects input state

[idle shell]

he also has to learn about the buttons renaming them resizing them

holy just sau ur dumb

also has to learn about adding multiple keycodes

the small things pile up

and it becomes difficult for him

now tell me

is it easier to learn about the small things or go with the slightly inneficient way hes going with

[sullen bay]

he doesn't have to add keycodes, he can just do "x"

[idle shell]

btw didnt you tell me to use raycasts when you didnt know what i was talking about

you dont know anything

[sullen bay]

can legit doContextActionService:BindAction("Run", Run, true, "w","s", "z")

[sullen bay]

u was looking for the end position infront of ur gun

[idle shell]

yep this is where the argument ends

certified dumbass

[idle shell]

? my end position was mouse.hit

LMAOO

[sullen bay]

im objectively correct 😭 that's how CAS works

U don't NEED to type out the keycodes themselves

[idle shell]

CaS has like 100 properties he has to learn

[sullen bay]

no it doesn't

[idle shell]

cas can be more efficient than uis but uis is clearly easier to teach and learn

[native elk]

if hes a beginner why not just let him use a simple, somewhat inefficient method. whats the point in arguing

[sullen bay]

cope, ur low IQ

[idle shell]

this is what im saying

[idle shell]

getbutton, bindaction, bindactionatpriority, unbindallactions, also

[native elk]

hes just learning

[idle shell]

also when changing keybinds he has to learn to detect whgenever its changed unbind action and rebind it

[native elk]

therefore no need for anything more advanced than uis

[idle shell]

that isnt going to be easy for him

[sullen bay]

ContextActionService:BindAction("Run", Run, true, "w")
In his function he just checks whether the context recieved is "Run" and that's it

[idle shell]

you didnt read a single thing i said

please stop talking

[sullen bay]

the string Run is the context

[idle shell]

what hes doing right now is correct and even if it is inneficient its okay

[sullen bay]

ur a dumbo

im giving him a more efficient and better method

[idle shell]

he wont mess up his brain because he learns an inefficient thing

which is going to be harder for him to learn

[sullen bay]

CAS isn't hard bro 😭

[idle shell]

he has to learn the basics then move up. you expect him to use physics, lerping instead of tweening, all because its more efficient

please grow a brain

[sullen bay]

if he knows how to check for inputs from players he can use CAS, if he has ur level of intelligence he might struggle thouugh

[idle shell]

lerping isnt "hard" either

but should he learn it

no

hes a beginner

nothing is hard but constantly learning new things is going to be tough for him

let him get USED to and MASTER what he knows

before learning other things

[sullen bay]

yes, copying and pasting 10 if statements for an input when he can do the same job easier and with less clutter

[idle shell]

BindAction(actionName : string,functionToBind : function,createTouchButton : boolean,inputTypes : Tuple):()
Bind user input to an action given an action handling function.

BindActionAtPriority(actionName : string,functionToBind : function,createTouchButton : boolean,priorityLevel : number,inputTypes : Tuple):()
Behaves like BindAction but also allows a priority to be assigned to the bound action for overlapping input types (higher before lower).

BindActivate(userInputTypeForActivation : Enum.UserInputType,keyCodesForActivation : Tuple):()
Bind a Enum.KeyCode with a specific Enum.UserInputType to trigger Tool.Activation and ClickDetector events.

GetAllBoundActionInfo():Dictionary
Get a table of information about all bound actions (key is the name passed to BindAction, value is a table from GetBoundActionInfo when called with the key).

GetBoundActionInfo(actionName : string):Dictionary
Get a table of information about a bound action given its name originally passed to BindAction.

GetButton(actionName : string):Instance
Yields
Retrieves a ImageButton of a bound action that had a touch input button created.

GetCurrentLocalToolIcon():string
Return the BackpackItem.TextureId of a Tool currently equipped by the Player.

SetDescription(actionName : string,description : string):()
Given the name of a bound action with a touch button, sets the description of the action.

SetImage(actionName : string,image : string):()
If actionName key contains a bound action, then image is set as the image of the touch button.

SetPosition(actionName : string,position : UDim2):()
Given the name of a bound action with a touch button, sets the position of the button within the ContextButtonFrame.

SetTitle(actionName : string,title : string):()

UnbindAction(actionName : string):()
Unbind an action from input given its name.

UnbindActivate(userInputTypeForActivation : Enum.UserInputType,keyCodeForActivation : Enum.KeyCode):()
Unbind a Enum.KeyCode with a specific Enum.UserInputType from triggering Tool.Activation when bound with ContextActionService:BindActivate().

UnbindAllActions():()
Removes all functions bound. No actionNames will remain. All touch buttons will be removed.

he has to learn majority of that

if hes making a mobile compatible game he has to learn all of it

[sullen bay]

no he doesn't know

no he doesn't

[idle shell]

its simpler for him

[native elk]

this argument is stupid just let the guy master the basics 🙏💔

[idle shell]

its inefficient yes, but it can be organized

[sullen bay]

ur over complexifying how CAS works jus to prove a point

[sullen bay]

ur low IQ no one shud listen to u 😭

[idle shell]

im trying to explain this to him but this moron is missing most of his braincells

[idle shell]

guarantee im smarter than u

[idle shell]

UIS is easier than CAS

buddy

right now he knows UIS

let him stick to it

even if his method is inefficient

if he wants to overburden himself by learning CAS he can but once again

its an overburden

[sullen bay]

local function Run (actionname, inputState)
if actionname == "Run" and inputState == Enum.UserInputState.Begin then
--running script
end
end
ContextActionService:BindAction("Run", Run, true, "w", Enum.KeyCode.S, Enum.KeyCode.DPadUp )--add other running buttons

it's that easy

if he wants to add more buttons he just goes to context line and adds new letters as needed

he can add controller inputs, mobile inputs, etc

[idle shell]

yes and lets say he has more knowledge about UIS than CAS, eventually if he wants to do something else with his current knowledge he will think "I can use UIS to do this, but pipeitupwho told me to use CAS. looks like i have to go out of my way to learn how to do this using CAS"

[idle shell]

if he ONLY learns this stuff eventually he has to learn more if he wants to do more things

[sullen bay]

I am telling him the right way to do things, and what's the harm in teaching him something that's as easy as CAS?

[sullen bay]

if it was that hard for u to learn how to use CAS, stop insulting him 😂

[sullen bay]

ur "method" btw.

[idle shell]

ok CAS is easy got it. lerping, oop, cframe math, exploits (remote events making sure they arent explotiable), modulescript architecture, memory managment/perofrmance, asynchronous code this is all easy. should he learn it?

[idle shell]

no im expanding his method

[sullen bay]

Yes he should learn it, this is LUA BASICS

[idle shell]

hes a fucking beginner bro

oh my god

[sullen bay]

Right now, taking in inputs

[idle shell]

youre brain is so stupid

[sullen bay]

He SHOULD learn cAS

[idle shell]

HE HAS A SCRIPT ALREADY. YOU TOLD HIM TO REWRITE HIS ENTIRE SCRIPT BECAUSE ITS INEFFICIENT

i saved him a burden by telling him to continue his script

[sullen bay]

EXACTLY, if he's learning how to use inputs and wants to USE multiple INPUTS for the same THING, CAS IS PERFECT. It's the PERFECT oppurtunity to learn it as well

[sullen bay]

u gave him tech debt

He legit has the textbook use case for CAS

[idle shell]

nope. and he has to spend another hour learning how to make it double clickable btw

[sullen bay]

why shouldnt he learn it?

[idle shell]

because hes a beginner

he can learn it when hes mastered UIS

[idle shell]

he literally said he wants to know how to detect other double taps. he never fucking said hes gonna use it for sprinting

[sullen bay]

better spending that hour than figuring out how to use UIS for double w key sprinting 😂

[idle shell]

he already has a script for it bro

[sullen bay]

"Why teach someone the proper solution to an issue that's relatively EASY so he can learn? when he can use some dumbo logic bloat I know will set him back"

[idle shell]

bro do you have a brain

HE ALREADY has a script for it

bro youre so nonsensical

YOU MISUNDERSTOOD and youre wrong. stop sticking to a point that was for an argument you werent arguing for

[sullen bay]

I am right 😭

[idle shell]

it wont set him back. another person said so

[sullen bay]

U are dumb I am not, stop projecting

[sullen bay]

"let me give him the wrong answer" 😭

ur a idiot

[thorn rampart]

** You are now Level 5! **

[idle shell]

its an overburden to constantly learn "efficient" methods

[idle shell]

not a wrong answer

his code works

i never told him to rewrite his code

hes going to have trouble rewriting his code

[sullen bay]

with CAS he doesn't have to rewrite it, he can keep 80% of it, all he's changing is checking for the context and adding the CAS

holy ur dumb 😭

[idle shell]

and ur the guy that said he, a beginner should learn lerping, oop, cframe math, exploits (remote events making sure they arent explotiable), modulescript architecture, memory managment/perofrmance, asynchronous code

hes a beginner btw

[sullen bay]

i even wrote it out for him
if actionname == "Run" and inputState == Enum.UserInputState.Begin then
--running script
end
end
ContextActionService:BindAction("Run", Run, true, "w", Enum.KeyCode.S, Enum.KeyCode.DPadUp )--add other running buttons

[idle shell]

and u said he should immediately scrap all he has

[idle shell]

okay lets say he wants it to be A and not W. hes going to need a whole NEW function

IF HES GOING TO IMPLEMENT SOMETHING ELSE

[sullen bay]

Yes, these are all natural progressions he's going to learn as he works on his project. "Hmm I wonder if there's a way I can store some data to use in a bunch of other scripts instead of writing the same thing over and over again.." hmmmmm

[idle shell]

HE NEVER SAID HES GOING TO USE IT ALL FOR SCRIPTING

god you idiot bro

[sullen bay]

no he doesn't

U dont even know how CAS works LOLL

[idle shell]

no he shouldnt learn it all immediately moron

[sullen bay]

UR A IDIOTTT

LOLLL

[idle shell]

🤦

people like this ruin rsc

[sullen bay]

Stupidest comment oat

now I know u have no clue what ur talking about LOLL

[idle shell]

he already added a function for w right

and lets say he wants double tapping H to heal

new function OR clog up his current function

[sullen bay]

just quiet down, ur a dumbo, u don't know what ur talking about

[idle shell]

u just noticed u lost the argument and are trying to change the topic

[sullen bay]

Ironic

😭

[idle shell]

yep he isnt even trying to refute me

just dropped the argument

[sullen bay]

explain this

[idle shell]

why do people do this when they lose?

are they salty

[sullen bay]

why is he going to need a new function if he wants to use A not W?

lets flesh it out

lets see who is right or wrong

does @idle shell know what he's talking about or not?

lets find out!

[idle shell]

because hes healing and not changing his walkspeed? he can either make a new function for organization or clog up his current function which will ruin the readability

[sullen bay]

what are u talking about?

healing??

what function does he have with HEALING??

LOLL

[sullen bay]

He has a RUN script

How does he need a different function when he changes his keys from W to A To run that said function using CAS?

lol u know u lost and stopped typing, what a sad existence LOL

[idle shell]

alright this is where we drop the argument and admit youre wrong

[idle shell]

and lets say

[sullen bay]

Let me give u the answer since u don't know

[idle shell]

HYPOTHETICAL

[sullen bay]

So

[idle shell]

HYPOTHETICAL

HYPOTHETICAL

HYPOTHETICAL

[sullen bay]

IN CAS

[idle shell]

ur so dumb bro

[sullen bay]

ironic

So he wants to change his Key from W to A?

here's what u do with CAS

ContextActionService:BindAction("Run", Run, true, "w", Enum.KeyCode.S, Enum.KeyCode.DPadUp )--add other running buttons

[idle shell]

ctrl + h

[sullen bay]

ContextActionService:BindAction("Run", Run, true, "a", Enum.KeyCode.S, Enum.KeyCode.DPadUp )--add other running buttons

there done

[idle shell]

.Keycode.W --> .Keycode.A

[sullen bay]

where's this new function?

[idle shell]

hours of learning just so you can change one thing that he probably wont change 👍 also nice changing the topic

[idle shell]

hey listen dumbass

let me talk here

no

shut up

let me talk

shut

[sullen bay]

it's used for organization, when he has MULTIPLE other functions

[idle shell]

dumbass listen rq

yo dumbass

[sullen bay]

I dont let idiots interrupt me

[idle shell]

time to zip it

i said

[sullen bay]

Jump function, Grappling function, sliding function, adding player customizable inputs, etc

CAS does this

[idle shell]

if he wants a heal function for the key H being double clicked. what does he do? he makes a new function regardless of CAS to implement healing

[sullen bay]

Mobile support? console?

[idle shell]

he can do that with his own inefficient method already........

[sullen bay]

with loads of extra code, for no reason. He coulda spent 30 mins learning cas, now he has to spend 30 mins making the changes

[chilly merlin]

With no context at all @sullen bay you're wrong asf

[idle shell]

no he doesnt

[chilly merlin]

Bye

[idle shell]

another one

LOL

[sullen bay]

^^

[idle shell]

LMAOOOO

[sullen bay]

no context

[chilly merlin]

I seen enough

[idle shell]

he took one look and knew u were wrong

[sullen bay]

what am I wrong about

[chilly merlin]

Of last message

[idle shell]

ur wasting his time

lets keep it between me and u moron

[sullen bay]

ironic

[idle shell]

ironic how?

[sullen bay]

he injected himself

[idle shell]

100 times uve said ironic not 1 made sense

[idle shell]

he was expressing his opinion

LOL

its discord kid

"this is my private argument! 🤓 "

[chilly merlin]

Me when gpt

[sullen bay]

ur wasting my time, = ironic saying im wasting his time

[idle shell]

ur the one thats wrong tho

[sullen bay]

this is a script I WROTE for my GAME

[idle shell]

it wouldnt take 30 minutes

[sullen bay]

I just changed the function name and input key

[chilly merlin]

Ai

[chilly merlin]

Feel bad for players

Bye now

[sullen bay]

uhuh

[idle shell]

mobile support? add a button --> connect function to his current double tap script

console? iskeydown buttonr2 -- > use his already made function

5 mins

max

or spend an hour learning about CAS

[sullen bay]

just have the context somewhere ez, do the samething , takes 2 seconds

[chilly merlin]

Make him learn both icl

Fix own script

[idle shell]

yes but u spend 2 hrs learning about CAS

[chilly merlin]

Learn acs

Cas

Whatever the fuck it is

[sullen bay]

ur a nobody why r u injecting urself

[idle shell]

CAS isnt the definite better method btw. and hes more known than u

ive never seen "pipeitupwho" in RSC

go back to Roblox Studio Friends House or whatever 200 member server ur in

[chilly merlin]

Am a virus

Ty

[sullen bay]

he injecting himself and said he was leaving jus to stay on my wood

[chilly merlin]

Also I trust more an active member that's s1

[sullen bay]

I could tell

[chilly merlin]

Then a guy with fucking tree

As pfp

[idle shell]

s2 level 😏

[chilly merlin]

Never

[idle shell]

when will they release the ranking tickets

[idle shell]

i made a state machine, ez s2 😏

[sullen bay]

im done wasting my time, method I brought up is more efficient and works better.

[idle shell]

takes too long to learn for a beginner, he should just stick with his way because it works and he can organize it to make it scalable and readable

[steel inlet]

my version of "beginner" differs from your version of "beginner", and your version is equivalent to a skid

ContextActionService is perfectly fine and good

[idle shell]

U know what my point was

[steel inlet]

if you for some reason don't like it, there are still ways to do it better than shitloads of conditionals

[idle shell]

Hehad to rewrite his script to detect double clicking + if he constantly drops what he knows he will be burdened

He JUST learns something just for someone to say "drop it this sucks"

[steel inlet]

I mean, yeah, and?

[idle shell]

He posted a script and said "how can i make this detect other keys" and i told him

Simple, without rewriting sm else

[steel inlet]

that's great, but it's also about to be deprecated

[idle shell]

And its simpler for him because he could stick with his own script. He never asked for alternatives or "teach me how to do it better"

He simply showed us his script and asked how can i add other keys

Not critisize my script for unefficiency and demand i do it better

[steel inlet]

criticize*, inefficiency*

in any case, your point here is invalid when used against the push for efficiency

[idle shell]

Ur a nerd

[thorn rampart]

** You are now Level 26! **

[steel inlet]

how quick you are to move to insults

[idle shell]

Its not invalid because just let him master what he knows 🤦

[idle shell]

Ur the one correcting my mispelling

LOL

Im calling u a nerd for that

[steel inlet]

and does that make you mad

[idle shell]

And if he constantly learns how to optimize his code he wont learn anything

[steel inlet]

"constantly learns..." "...won't learn anything"

[idle shell]

3 weeks to learn about uis and how to implement it just to learn about CAS (and UIS wont be deprecated u moron)

[steel inlet]

choose your words very carefully

[idle shell]

Yes. I stand on tbat

[steel inlet]

you are practically weaving a web of contradiction

[idle shell]

No meaningful progress on scripting knowledge will be gained

[idle shell]

Not a contradiction. And I assume youre a christian for calling it that?

You need to understand what im insinuating not take the literal meaning

[steel inlet]

why would you assume I'm christian?

[idle shell]

Because they call the non contradictions in every book contradictions

They dont know what context is

[steel inlet]

sir, the literal meaning is effectively the primary point behind definition and debate

if I don't take the literal meaning, what am I supposed to go on

[steel inlet]

I'm not even religious, so I can't begin to fathom what this is spawned from

[idle shell]

When I said he wont learn anything if he learns how to optimize his code my meaning was that he wont make any meaningful progress toward becoming a more knowledgable scripter if he constantly optimizes and relearns what he knows now

Stop criticising the small things acting like ur smart and stick to the argument

[steel inlet]

that is ironic, actually, because I constantly optimize and relearn things and I am quite capable of many things today

[steel inlet]

Is this not how you learn?

[idle shell]

As an intermediate or above intermediate scripter. Not a beginner

[idle shell]

Nope. Hes relearning everything, hes a novice and shouldnt be doing that

You already have knowledge so you have nothing to do BUT relearn better ways

[steel inlet]

Isn't it funny how you have to first understand the idea behind logical statements to know how to use them? If he truly missed that fact and you had to give it to him, I'm afraid that is more against your argument than for it

[idle shell]

What

Are you changing the topic

This is completely unrelated

[steel inlet]

sorry, instead of "logical statements" I should say "conditional statements"

does that fix it

the original code he provided has this whole double key press thing implemented already

isn't it ODD that he didn't think to reuse it

[idle shell]

Whats ur point

[steel inlet]

Now I truthfully don't take people to be dumbasses, but either he is one or he really just wants to get the job done

it's always better it get the job done better, yes?

[idle shell]

Whos a dumbass and whats going on

I dont understand u

[steel inlet]

right, let me be clear that the context is about his code

pronouns? he? (Not you)

[idle shell]

His code sucks

I know

But it works

[steel inlet]

it works, but that's not my point

my point is this: he failed to see the practicality behind reusing it

he asks here for something he himself figured out? or, so you would like to make it out

[idle shell]

Yes he didnt know to reuse it

Thats why i called him a dumbass

[steel inlet]

in essence, I don't think that this is a learning experience for he; just a place for he to get an answer

in other words, it would be silly to think that the priority should be to give him something he can comprehend based on a copy of what he has neglected to reuse

🤷

[idle shell]

I see your point, i agree that this isnt a learning place. Thats why i didnt tell him about CAS and just told him to copy and paste his code multiple times

[steel inlet]

that intent I can agree on

[idle shell]

Thats why I gave him something to comprehend because it aligns with what i said above

[steel inlet]

However I cannot agree with your intent to give him something to comprehend, because in my professional opinion, people who refuse to learn are not worth the effort of a soft upbringing

[idle shell]

And this dumbass comes in talking about CAS, i didnt know how to reply so i talked about giving him something easy and telling him to reuse his code. But my real point is this right here

[steel inlet]

Just a personal thing tho

[weary light]

ContextActionService

[ionic marsh]

what is that ;-;

[native elk]

its the thing these guys been yapping about

[weary light]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y8qUoM1dyv8&t=1059s

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gsA2_hlvfF0

youll need it

[ionic marsh]

I think that i better go it the simple, idk, all this make me understand that Is better if I just make the entire map first and then the script ;-;

[weary light]

if you wanna make things simple dont make it advanced

[ionic marsh]

and I have the movement almost done, like 99%

[ionic marsh]

good point

Il just send the animation and the double tap W in action
