Looking For Tips On Creating / Updating Systems

[prime viper]

I'm sorry if this is the wrong channel for asking for tips on making systems, i have been trying to make a new system for my project but i'm having troubles making a system that is not the same system with a different coat of paint.

I mean, you should be more specific. Because how we can tell you tips if we don’t know what system you making

sorry if i'm not specific about it , but how do you go about making a new system because i believe when i'm building a system i'm not going about it correctly mentally, so i would like to know how do you think about making a system.

Well, if you’re talking about systems overall, it’s better to plan them out first (what you want to end up with). Then just script it. Writing clean and organized code takes practice and experience, so keep writing and looking for better ways to improve your code

sorry if i'm being annoying but i don't know where people get the info about how fast roblox studio does its functions like i see videos of people saying that oh this function is very slow and i'm like how do you know that.

You will notice this during your practice. As you gain experience, you will also learn what to do and what not to do, so it just takes time. You can also benchmark using Script Profiler and get information from Devforum & Roblox docs

Well... The game starts lagging when you use a demanding function too much
I wouldn't worry about it because like 95% of performance issues come from a bug or a really badly chosen data structure rather than a particular demanding function used
