dim flicker
just cancel my order i aint waiting all this time for some lightslate and blacks...
I am sorry for the inconvenience, again your order was never processed thus we never began. We had higher priority orders at the time whom have been waiting much longer.

@dim flicker
dim flicker
hey whats up
next mango
Can I steal your idea lol
dim flicker
sure lol, we got something new on the horizon
dim flicker
sneak peek 2
i dont like the buttons any advice
maybe i have a cross in the top right
like a bubble
so i can fit the quantity buttons
smt like this
next mango
sure lol, we got something new on the horizon
I tried I hate doing ui
dim flicker
I tried I hate doing ui
to a tee 😭
nice attempt tho
i also added those grid dots
next mango
All I got is some squares
dim flicker
this is what this will look like
plus some quantity buttons
and maybe fix that close button
next mango
I scrapped mine I’m just gonna stuck to what I’m best at building and scripting. Making ui makes me wanna rip my head off
dim flicker
this is my first shot at it
like properly tho
and im kinda surprised
scripting this can be a headache tho
cause the nesting man
you end with Frame.Frame.Frame.Button.TextLabel
its disgusting
better close button?
vague hedge
did you get approval for this
dim flicker
why would i need any?
vague hedge
this is for orders right?
dim flicker
possibly
vague hedge
if your intention is to have customers join the game and place an order
you would need to upload and post the game here or in their dms
either way, that's advertising an actual full game
dim flicker
your coming in my channel acting as a staff
vague hedge
i'm asking a question?
me asking if u got it approved isn't "acting as staff"
like this is cool and all but you can't really use it if it's not approved
dim flicker
anyways i recall you didnt want to talk to me
vague hedge
so now you're avoiding the question
vague hedge
anyways i recall you didnt want to talk to me
cause when you come to my post it's to instigate an argument, i came here to ask a question in a civil manner
there are differences in how we go out to interact with each other. yours has malicious intent and mine doesn't
dim flicker
shady??
vague hedge
i asked mods before i uploaded my application form
/started sending it out
and i sent it to them beforehand so they could clear it for phishing
vague hedge
you came here clearly with the intention to get my project shutdown
no, i didn't
dim flicker
well theres a reason google forms and roblox links are allowed
vague hedge
well theres a reason google forms and roblox links are allowed
the content of them still needs to be checked
anyways
blazing anvil
great drama
vague hedge
no, i didn't
it'd only get shutdown if it wasn't approved
vague hedge
great drama
it's not drama!!!
dim flicker
def is
dim flicker
you come in my channel after stating you dont want to talk to me
dim flicker
you have no reason to get involved
vague hedge
and i've been relatively civil this whole time
blazing anvil
vague hedge
so have you asked mods to get it approved?
dim flicker
no i havent
vague hedge
you should

i've also literally shown this work to devs and they dont seem to care
im not trying to rip them off
i am playing their fun economy and communit
half of this game is economy otherwise no one would play

Typical Developers 🦆 - #testing-general
vague hedge
you didn't mention it being for a game at all
dim flicker
the devs aren't incompetent, they can clearly see it's roblox UI.
vague hedge
roblox =/= for a gamd
dim flicker
anyways i've never gotten it approved. this is merely a personal project. inspired by their new UI philosphy. and I'm attempting to make this a dynamic marketplace using google sheets and trello. such that old roblox games used to use.
vague hedge
you can make stuff for practice
if it's a personal project then it's probably fine, idk what they can do to stop you from working on something on your own
the thing is if you have to post & spread around the game you're technically advertising a different game & you should check with them first
that's all i had to say. i didn't even come to say anything bad about the project itself, just that if you're going to use it you should make sure you can first
otherwise instead of setting it up where customers make their own orders, you can use it for quick calculations and ease of logging with an ID system probably an employee key
dim flicker
theres a millino and one uses for this project, i was even thinking of a public marketplace though that is out of scope cause of moderation concerns
blazing anvil
real
dim flicker
anyways I intend on using it how its presented. i'd like a finished product before i bother asking the devs.
I don't see why it wouldn't be allowed, should I appropriately outline the purpose of this "experience".
vague hedge
you should ask staff before & continue to update them so you don't have to make a bunch of last minute changes
dim flicker
I've even got an example first-join modal, though the description is incomplete.
I am also no longer having a seperate discord for this project.
As that is against this server rules
vague hedge
so why not ask them about this too
dim flicker
Because it isn't done really. Much better shot should it be polished and nicely done.
It adds some credibility to my project.
vague hedge
if you're so key on getting a rough draft out then go ahead
ill stay posted personally
dim flicker
Yeah of course, hopefully all works out. It's ambitious for sure, though could be a neat addition to the communities economy.
Personally I think they could do a lot with the whole "oak-market" idea.
A lot of potential there.
vague hedge
you can't make an entirely separate unmoderated marketplace
unless you're the rc2 trading community i guess
vague hedge
This is merely a glorified order form.
exactly
dim flicker
It's just a pretty interface to select your items, have a calculated total then it updates stocks and chucks it onto trello for "human" processing.
dim flicker
That's the easier part, it was harder integrating google sheets.
But it works
This is literally the back-end
It will automatically update the shop accordingly
With different tabs for different categories
Ores, Rocks, Items, Tools
whatever
next mango
Holly I leave for a couple minutes and come back to fighting
vague hedge
oh my god nobody was fighting
if anything he was getting stiff-armed the whole time 🙄 SIIIIIIGHS
these drama fiends
dim flicker
this is the core of the idea
blazing anvil
these drama fiends
🤑
vague hedge
i dont mean to backseat
but this is coming from what i'm doiny
even though it's using an entirely separate program & language
you should start with maybe 2-3 buttons and work out all the functionality there
like preventing overlapping, back buttons, quantity, etc
dim flicker
wym
vague hedge
then move onto the add to cart/receipt screen and work on a logging function (since you want to have a past order log)
dim flicker
yeah i might not have that all, its just concepts
blazing anvil
e
dim flicker
could maybe do an api search through the "completed" list in trello
vague hedge
well there's gotta be a cart system if you're buying smthn right
dim flicker
TrelloAPI.CardsAPI.GetCardsOnList("LIST_ID")
dim flicker
well there's gotta be a cart system if you're buying smthn right
yeah dont got one yet
it's easy enough though
since it isnt automatic it will require human inout
it will literally just be
{
"Product Name": Amount
}
maybe ill add price if i need after
vague hedge
lua can't be that hard imo
dim flicker
its not
vague hedge
might give it a shot. but i was gonna work with javascript/html
i think its more about the understanding part
dim flicker
type CartItem = {
productName: string,
productPrice: number}```Well you got any previous programming experience?
vague hedge
i think everyone had that 'I WANNA BE A GAME DEVELOPER!' phase
dim flicker
i defintely have my fair share of cancelled projects 😭
vague hedge
i think most of the games i would make would be things that might be on roblox but also aren't, like a cooking mama styled cooking game
dim flicker
heres one:
vague hedge
i've always been more of a builder though
next mango
I've had plenty of projects ive just cancelled like this one when rng games were so good

I've had plenty of projects ive just cancelled like this one when rng games were...

Good as in player wise

they are rubbish

Good as in player wise
you mean for farming CCP

Cause no one got good minds anymore its just trends
dim flicker
the animations are neat

like twenty one is cool
yeh thats unique
dim flicker
the problem is no one plays the high quality games
but i feel s&box might be facepunch's answer to roblox
vague hedge
whats thaT
dim flicker
its like roblox but built on source 2
(counter strikes current engine)
but its a much less restricted engine

its like roblox but built on source 2
source wouldnt be user friendly to say the least
dim flicker
it very much would be

roblox engine is built on lua for a reason
dim flicker
roblox engine is very limited
empty verge
roblox engine is very limited
yes
empty verge
its still an impressive ngine
for an engine mostly revamped in 2016 its still kickin
dim flicker
They still add a lot of features.
Like it's powerful if you want it to be.
And the on-demand aspect (not having to download games) is really the crazy part of roblox's capabilities.
empty verge
They still add a lot of features.
when will they massively revamp it again is my question
dim flicker
never
they make enough money
and they dont need to
not much can change
the engine is truly powerful, it is the developers which are lazy
empty verge

What is that
If you need storage I have a whole building you can use
dim flicker
What is that
Marketplace I'm building. If you'd like I do need suppliers eventually.
I was planning on a 10% marketplace fee
Approved sellers only tho
boreal dune
Approved sellers only tho
i already started a build on it
basically
you dm me a password to the item
dim flicker
yoo guys this is actually nuts
we are deadass levelling up this economy
we are the amazon of this community
time to monopolize
example:
then on our order tracker:
next mango
Now that’s dope
dim flicker
all automated
stock prices etc
all based off a google sheet
so we can add items, descriptions and more as we please
categories
you name it
next mango
Basing it off of google sheets has got to save tons of time if you were to manual add the items from studio itself
dim flicker
now all thats left is some clean up. i kinda left ui to the dust while i just got it to function. and then a cooldown, and both completed orders and tracking orders
dim flicker
Basing it off of google sheets has got to save tons of time if you were to manua...
exactly using an in-game database
it also lets you live update the shop in-game
with just a refresh

Guy's we are like so close to done, I'm talking adding tracking and order history. Which I can do in 5 mins if I stop being lazy.
Then we'll be open to sales.
Now guys, do any of you have bulk items you'd be interested in selling through our marketplace?
With an about ~10% marketplace fee.
