I want to learn some things in Lua right now, but as far as something FUN to learn, i'm stumped. Can someone please, maybe, tell me something fun to learn? Something I can feel accomplished about? |

What level are you at?
Do you know how to define things?
mydoor = game.Workspace.Door
a = 3
print(a)

|
(he means object oriented programming, check out the articles on the wiki) |
|
|
object orientation is a much more classier way of referring to it :D |

May I suggest loops?
They're fun to learn and very useful. |

ye, if you don't know while loops, for loops, and repeat loops, learn them now. learn if statements first though if you don't know them. |

Oh boy camera manipulation is a fun one!
It opens up a million opportunity's in game creation.
I wouldn't be able to make this without camera manipulation:

Nice :) I played it, cool concept. Can I learn how to remove the health bar? |

Removing the health bar is VERY easy. |

I may be a bit outdated here but:
game.StarterGui:SetCoreGuiEnabled("Health",false) |

Oh sweat, now I can enable an artificial health system? I tried doing Camera Manipulation but I feel I would do better if someone would explain it to me over skype or something |

I made a simpler way where your local code would look like:
keybinding:Bind(game.Players.LocalPlayer:GetMouse())
keybinding:BindKeyDown(key, keyDownFunction)
keybinding:BindKeyUp(key, keyUpFunction)
wait(5)
keybinding:UnbindKeyDown(key)
keybinding:UnbindKeyUp(key)
Completely removes the mouse event from the player, makes it easy to unbind keys, and also allows for you to transfer key functions from one key to another (not shown above). Really just lacks some versatility where you have a variable holding a key for a function, with that variable having the ability to be changed by the user, creating more player control over keybinding. |

I'm very good with the camera.
Tell me if you'd like help with a 2D script or anything :) |
