slim torrent Sep 23, 2025, 10:30 AM

So you want to procedurally generate them or what

lean jungle Sep 23, 2025, 10:31 AM

slim torrent So you want to procedurally generate them or what

I've done that already

#

slim torrent Sep 23, 2025, 10:31 AM

#

lean jungle Sep 23, 2025, 10:32 AM

#

lean jungle Im trying to make something like that

#

There is the subway section and industrial section (which i have yet to work on), there needs to be a transition at a specific point

slim torrent Sep 23, 2025, 10:34 AM

#

Oh I see.

lean jungle Sep 23, 2025, 10:35 AM

#

Yeah, bear with me, I can barely script as is

slim torrent Sep 23, 2025, 10:35 AM

#

So how have u been generating this section? Module scripts?

lean jungle Sep 23, 2025, 10:35 AM

#

Yes!

slim torrent Sep 23, 2025, 10:36 AM

#

That's very good

lean jungle Sep 23, 2025, 10:36 AM

#

I can send my code

#

But im not good with formatting

slim torrent Sep 23, 2025, 10:36 AM

#

So is it like I describe. U just call some function using some Events that generate further eay

#

Way

lean jungle Sep 23, 2025, 10:36 AM

#

Hmm

#

At a certain door I call a function that stops subway rooms and generates industrial?

Not ideally. U should keep track of how many subsections of room have u generated use that to transition to some other themed generations

lean jungle Sep 23, 2025, 10:39 AM

#

okay

slim torrent Sep 23, 2025, 10:39 AM

I mean yeah that's the same thing ig

#

U can share the code here ig

#

Unless it's a mountain

lean jungle Sep 23, 2025, 10:40 AM

#

its like 77 lines so not much

slim torrent Sep 23, 2025, 10:41 AM

#

Oh nice

#

Go ahead then

#

Use lua formatting

lean jungle Sep 23, 2025, 10:41 AM

#

dammit my msg is too long

slim torrent Sep 23, 2025, 10:42 AM

#

If ydk. ``lua --code`` is the format

#

Copy my msg

#

Or use pastebin

lean jungle Sep 23, 2025, 10:43 AM

#

i know how to use lua formatting

#

i have to split my stuff bc of my lack or nitro

#

one second

#

holy

#

uhh

#

ill just send a screenshot

slim torrent Sep 23, 2025, 10:48 AM

#

Btw. You can also create a theme manager. It'd keep track of the current theme and the room generation system would refer to it for determining what theme to generate. With a controller script u can change the theme midgame. That's a good approach ig

lean jungle Sep 23, 2025, 10:48 AM

#

oh wow fr?

#

uhh you gotta help me with that

slim torrent Sep 23, 2025, 10:49 AM

#

It's easy rly

lean jungle Sep 23, 2025, 10:49 AM

#

cant even send the code what

#

anyway

slim torrent Sep 23, 2025, 10:50 AM

#

Idk how ur room generation work so I cannot tell u how

lean jungle Sep 23, 2025, 10:50 AM

#

slim torrent Sep 23, 2025, 10:50 AM

#

But it's rly intuitive

lean jungle Sep 23, 2025, 10:50 AM

#

sorry i have to send it that way

#

discord was tweaking

#

its out of order hold on

studio ** You are now Level 3! ** studio

lean jungle Sep 23, 2025, 10:51 AM

#

god dammit

#

one sec

#

Should be in order now

slim torrent Sep 23, 2025, 10:53 AM

#

Hm

#

This script handles one theme of the generation

lean jungle Sep 23, 2025, 10:53 AM

#

i have the room info script if you want that too?

slim torrent Sep 23, 2025, 10:54 AM

#

No

lean jungle Sep 23, 2025, 10:54 AM

#

okay

slim torrent Sep 23, 2025, 10:55 AM

#

Create a theme manager module with two functions, get current theme and set theme

lean jungle Sep 23, 2025, 10:55 AM

#

under the room module script?

slim torrent Sep 23, 2025, 10:56 AM

#

Doesn't matter. Require that in this generation script and fetch the current theme and generate accordingly

lean jungle Sep 23, 2025, 10:56 AM

#

okay

slim torrent Sep 23, 2025, 10:56 AM

#

Keep the room models under a folder named the appropriate theme

#

You'd need to rewrite your get random room function. Find a generalized way to get a random room

#

That'd work for all themes

#

Or wait a sec

#

I'm not sure how info module work so u gotta determine that

lean jungle Sep 23, 2025, 10:58 AM

#

lean jungle Yeah, bear with me, I can barely script as is

points crying (i dont need you to write it for me i just get a bit confused)

slim torrent Sep 23, 2025, 10:58 AM

#

Just create a common function for all themes

#

Oh mb

#

So u need like steps laid down

#

?

lean jungle Sep 23, 2025, 10:58 AM

#

yes

#

exactly!

#

im that type of person unfortunately

slim torrent Sep 23, 2025, 10:59 AM

#

Ok

#

Make urself ready for ai generated text

lean jungle Sep 23, 2025, 10:59 AM

#

oh boy

slim torrent Sep 23, 2025, 11:01 AM

#

Make a Module Script called ThemeManager in ReplicatedStorage.
Inside it, store a currentTheme variable and a list of themes.
Add functions to get the current theme and set a new theme.
Make a Script in ServerScriptService to cycle through the themes over time (use a wait/timer).
In your room generator, check the current theme from ThemeManager before spawning a room.
Spawn rooms based on the theme (e.g., Industrial, Water, Lava).
When the timer ends, ThemeManager changes the theme, and new rooms follow the new themes.

#

So get to work. I'm here if u get stuck at a step

#

U got this 💯

lean jungle Sep 23, 2025, 11:03 AM

#

thanks zawg🔥

#

wait wait

#

timer?

#

i dont need it based on a timer

#

i need it based on the halfway point (room 50)

slim torrent Sep 23, 2025, 11:04 AM

#

Oh

#

Just create a theme manager

#

for now

lean jungle Sep 23, 2025, 11:04 AM

#

okay

slim torrent Sep 23, 2025, 11:05 AM

#

You can keep track of how many rooms you've generated in the room generation module. then use it in the controller script to switch to a diff theme

#

Note that the controller script will only change themes. Generations can be handled in a separate thread or script

lean jungle Sep 23, 2025, 11:06 AM

slim torrent You can keep track of how many rooms you've generated in the room generation mod...
