This guide is designed for people who have little-to-none experience with LUA. Even the youngest of members can understand the tutorial.
Getting startedBefore you get started scripting, you'll need to know a few things.
- Scripting is a like a language that computers understand. If you miss a letter or capitalize the wrong part, the computer wont understand you. You always need to check over your codes to make sure that the computer can understand what you're trying to make it do.- To start making a game, you'll need to use Roblox Studio. Roblox Studio can be opened by going to "Start > All Programs > Roblox > Roblox Studio."
Without Roblox Studio you will not be able to make anything.Now that you have Roblox Studio open, we need to put a base plate. A base plate is a platform that the player walks on.
Open Roblox Studio and at the top press
File > NewThen go
Insert > Tool also found at the top
Click the spoiler for pictures
- Spoiler:
A box on the right hand side should appear with a selection of weapons, we don't need those. So click where it says
"Tools & Weapons". Select
"Terrain".
- Spoiler:
After you've found a terrain you like, click on the image and it should appear in your game screen.
Now, it's time to test it. Go to the top again, and go to
"Tools > Test > Play Solo"Congratulations, you just got one step closer to your very first game!
Your very first scriptFor your very first script, we'll use the Command bar. The command bar is a feature that executes commands immediately.
Open your game in
"Play Solo" and once that window opens up go to
"View > Toolbars" Now make sure
"Command Bar" is checked.
Now that we've got that off our chest, It's time for you to write and execute your very first script.
