proximity promt not working on roblox but its working on studio

[high monolith]

the title is saying everything

@cedar thorn

[delicate magnet]

oh shi

wait like 5mins

[high monolith]

shure

[delicate magnet]

so i can analize this script

[cedar thorn]

... (234 lines left)

bfr

[high monolith]

dont blame the script i know its overcomplicated and i am jhust stupid but i am prettyx now to studio / luau

script is basicly a massive blast door that can be closed / opened and aut opens after 60 secs

[sour pike]

why not send the script here?

[high monolith]

wdym?

[cedar thorn]

what the issue even

[sour pike]

we can read it

[high monolith]

the script works perfectly in the studio test but on a roblox server it doesnt

[cedar thorn]

is it a serverscript or a localscript?

[high monolith]

same goes for an airlock i made and a keycard door (all other stuff with click detectors work)

[high monolith]

local on the securitydoor

[cedar thorn]

wheres the security door parented.

[delicate magnet]

i just read half of this script

[dry hornet]

** You are now Level 4! **

[delicate magnet]

and i didint see any bugs

[high monolith]

workspace

[flint notch]

show output in roblox

[delicate magnet]

r there any errors in output4?

[cedar thorn]

localscript in workspace

[delicate magnet]

oh

[cedar thorn]

hedgy u cant have a local script in the workspace

[delicate magnet]

my first game i made

i put a local script in workspace

and i got mad it didint work

[high monolith]

mb not local script just the normal one

[cedar thorn]

white one?

[high monolith]

my brain thought you mean module script

[cedar thorn]

ah

[delicate magnet]

so the error is a remote event

so u use a remote event for opening the door?

[high monolith]

no

[delicate magnet]

so u use any remote events?

[high monolith]

only for a keycard image

but its not related

[delicate magnet]

ok

so there r no errors related to the door

[high monolith]

its like so weierd cause i also have a door that can be opend from one side via click detector and from the otherside with the keycard thingi but it works fine from the click detector side

[delicate magnet]

how did u make that it detects a keycard

[misty narwhal]

why do you need 200 lines to make a proximityprompt

🤔

[delicate magnet]

for an animation

[misty narwhal]

and how is that relevant

to the proximityprompt

🤔

[delicate magnet]

idk

[cedar thorn]

its the entire system for the door in one script

[misty narwhal]

ok but why would i need to know that

when the problem is a prompt

[high monolith]

like i said i am stupid and new

[dry hornet]

** You are now Level 3! **

[misty narwhal]

🤔

[delicate magnet]

cuz u asked

[sour pike]

watch a yt on proximity prompt

[cedar thorn]

nah its fine aslong as it works

[sour pike]

see how its implemented

[delicate magnet]

ur not stupid ur smarter than me

[cedar thorn]

its js easier to debug and organise with modules

[high monolith]

cap

[delicate magnet]

no

[high monolith]

i gotta learn that but its confusing

[cedar thorn]

what confuses u

[delicate magnet]

i made a local script in workspace and got mad it didint work

[sour pike]

200 lines but ur new to studio?

[delicate magnet]

fr

there r 72 messeges alr

edy

[high monolith]

the whole principe

[delicate magnet]

oh

[high monolith]

back to the main thing

[misty narwhal]

its ai generated

[high monolith]

no

its not

[misty narwhal]

yes

stop lying

[delicate magnet]

so u made it all alone

and also ur new to studio?

[high monolith]

learned tweeening with youtube and the keycard mech

[delicate magnet]

ok\

[high monolith]

and put it all together ( also learned like the basics

i have scripting experience i am just new tu luau

[cedar thorn]

module scripts are just tables which u store stuff in

in a module script u can store functions which u can call from another script where you required the module like this:

local ModuleScript = require(script.Module)

basically giving the ModuleScript variable all the functions

then u do ModuleScript:Function() (as long as the module script had the function called :Function())

and u can connect ur arguments into it then the stuff will happen

[delicate magnet]

it can take long

but if uu have a lot of time

you can script it agian and

make it carfuly

and u will see the error probly

[high monolith]

i know what module scripts are but the organisation makes the problems

should i start using that?

[cedar thorn]

u gatta make sure u are using them right

this is what a good explorer looks like

everythings in modules

[high monolith]

also how would you organize that in my example

[cedar thorn]

Script -> all of ur module scripts

[delicate magnet]

also is ur workspace sorted like in folders?

[high monolith]

i mean i coded some time in godot and i worked there with multiple scripts communicating (p.e. o acript for player that checks imput sends signal to door to open

[cedar thorn]

usually ye

[high monolith]

mine yes

[cedar thorn]

wait

m

mb

thought that was to me 🙁

[cedar thorn]

then u shouldnt struggle with modules

[high monolith]

ig i just have to understand the basics abuot it but how would you organize that in my example?

cause i havent really worked with server player communication yet

would you have one module script on the door to open / close it and one on the keycard thingy or what?

[cedar thorn]

I'd have a module that handles interactions and other modules that handle tweening, vfx etc

u could also use a module loader to write less

[high monolith]

so like one for everything but all in the door?

[cedar thorn]

either in the door or serverscriptservice

[high monolith]

can i dm you and you can explain me some things i have questions for or do you dont want that?

[cedar thorn]

i have no scripts in workspace only their designated places, except a guide module somewhere cuz im working on a asset to sell

[cedar thorn]

js ask here

[high monolith]

so for this door i dont get yet where i should put the scripts

cause i have my model in workspace with a normal script

[cedar thorn]

it depends

if u want it in workspace or sss

[high monolith]

diffrence?

[cedar thorn]

sss is more scalable and for big systems if ur adding other stuff in the future

[high monolith]

what do you mean by that

its just a small door but late i want to add a system that can shut it in an emergency

so prob sss

if i understood that right youd put the module script on the thing you want to use if its just like a chair that you acn sit on but if you want to script like a big electric system that can turn lights on and can be sabotaged youd put it on sss

@cedar thorn

[cedar thorn]

ye ig

[high monolith]

ok but like where tf and how do i put it in sss

[dry hornet]

** You are now Level 4! **

[high monolith]

do i just make a folder saying safetydoor logic and put my module scripts in there and how do i acces the model then?

[sour pike]

nah just learn some basic scripting if ur new

then do modules

[high monolith]

i mean i can do basic scripting but if i learn that faseter (already understand the key usage) its better ig

also my problem is something that they cant explain so ill just recode everything eith modules

[sour pike]

oh ok

u need a module loader

[high monolith]

ik

[sour pike]

look the metatable video by crusherfire

if u want

[high monolith]

@cedar thorn I don't wanna be annoying but I found the problem of my error and I wanted to ask you if you'd recommend me to switch to module scripts for everything (alr getting the hang of it) or only for big things and for small things just server scripts

[flint notch]

there is no cons to using module scripts

[cedar thorn]

If u want the door o have lots of effects and different functions then ye modules will be nice

Cuz then u can make each specific moduleworth 100 lines so u have rlly nice animations and vfx rather than having one script worth 1000 lines

Without module scripts its like reading a book in a loud crowded space but with modules its like reading a book in a library

[high monolith]

cinema

i dont wanna be annoying and you dont need to help me but i started using modul scripts and i got a yield error but i cant find the problem

i thought its an model loading error cause it saifd it could find but i added wait for child and its just not wokring

[cedar thorn]

Yield error is like not finding it

Show me how it looks like

[sweet veldt]

Holy yap session in here, go in game use the proximity prompt and press. F9

You can see the error

[high monolith]

haha nice joke we already tried

[sweet veldt]

Huh?

[high monolith]

can i dm you cause this is complicated

[high monolith]

it wont give an error

[sweet veldt]

Then there isn't one.

[high monolith]

but its not working i think the problem is that the script starts a automatic close but i just rescript the whole thing with module scripts

cause thats better ig

[sweet veldt]

It's far better.

Hold on can we hop on call

Cause this got kinda interesting

[high monolith]

ig

where?

[sweet veldt]

Let me grab a coffee

And do you want to hop on private, or public?

[high monolith]

priv would be better but can we do that in like 15 mins cause i gotta eat smthing

[sweet veldt]

That's fine gives me time to read the text file

[high monolith]

its a stupid script i am pretty new also i started with module scripting (its bit confusing) ill tell oyu in call

see ya

[sweet veldt]

thats fine man no stress

[high monolith]

id be ready now

@sweet veldt

[sweet veldt]

yo sorry

im ready
