Ah. I wouldn't know, I've had a userscript removing the forum from the list for almost a year now.

He speaks the truth. I tried to troll to get kicked out, but they're actually helpful. It's refreshing. RT and OT are still hell as usual, though.

In other news, anyone have any interesting projects happening right now? I'm starting on a turn-based strategy game (with hexagons! because hexagons!) that should be decent if I ever finish it.

I've been working on trying to create a win detection script. I need it to detect when all the players are dead then remove the floor from the world replace said floor after about 10 seconds. While if 1 or more players are alive to teleport them to the spectators box and remove the baseplate and replace it once again. While announcing the winners and awarding them a point. For surviving the round. I am struggling very much any help Mem?

Assuming you know how to perform each operation, it should look something like this: To get the number of players currently alive: - Loop through all players. - For each player, if that player has a character and a Humanoid object in their character, check if their Health is greater than 0. If it is, add them to your results table. - Return the length of your results table. When a player dies, do the following: - Check if the number of players alive is equal to 0 (unlikely unless you're using custom spawns) - If so, teleport the living players to the spectator box and display a message that those players won. - If not, don't teleport them and display a message that nobody won. - Remove the map from workspace. - Sleep 10 seconds. - Clone the map from somewhere and parent the clone to workspace.

@mem You should add some kinda of random wind to the arrows/bolts so they don't go right to the target but move to the left or the right depending on the variable

Turn-based strategy kind of like Civ, but not a Civ clone.

pls... Just remember to have a time limit on your turns. You don't want someone to go AFK or just troll and completely stall a game.

Already considered. 45 seconds per turn max, 100 turns per game, teams that don't have a player will skip their turns, etc. Theoretically the longest possible game is 7.5 hours, but I doubt that will happen.

@kilkil - Assuming that was actually directed towards me. Bolts now don't stack on top of each other, have a chance of destroying other bolts, are affected by gravity, and have a little bit of a distance based spread.

I believe this update has started more of an uproar than the Price Floor, yes? I don't mind it.

Well, at least whitespace is not removed in forum posts now. [+1 Scripting Legibility] - Plus ROBLOX is pumping out some really neat features lately. I was so happy for folders. :P

I usually use the Configuration instance to organize stuff. I guess this solves that.

Folders are the best for storing items now because they have absolutely no overhead.
