"also a lot of people are giving a lot of good points on why this shouldn't be added while your just telling people how great you are
"
i gave up making new rational arguments for these kind of ideas a long time ago
anyway none of you actually read the tutorials word for word, and you simply must do that.
I have tried doing this. Reading tutorials without reading the whole thing is a bad idea.

yeah
if i put print("Hello world"); before your eyes, you'll think programming is easy
if i put this:
#Code local x = {};
local y = {};
local xmeta={__pow=function(a,b)
table.insert(a, "what's 9+10");
table.insert(b, "21");
end
}
setmetatable(x, xmeta)
setmetatable(y, xmeta)
x + y
for i=1, #x do
print(x[i])
end
for i=1, #y do
print(y[i])
end
before your eyes, it will be "WOAH THATS COMPLICATED DUDE

"Ethat code isn't even object-oriented
that code isn't even useful to game development"
exactly
i was going to make some really elaborate oop php thingy but i remembered everyone here uses lua

so its like blocksworld biz now? |

@Colorful,

Because people are insecure |

Why Not?
Support, Helpful For me :P |

"Support, Helpful For me :P"
No, it isn't.
You cannot make a game with these commands alone. ROBLOX Studio was made so kids could learn programming. This was not Erik's intent. This is David Baszucki's intent.
How dare you support the poor idea of electricity and block based coding. Erik had the right idea, giving us REAL programming. (Although it is a shame roblox never got to linux, the good lua devs use linux)

Let me cite OP's clever words here.
"Stamper tools have the good way to teach kid how to script."
So this means that 'Kid Mode' is good for teaching kids how to script.
But then he says this:
"If we Place a Block then Enable kid mode, We able to put some Basic script inside the brick.
The list of Basic script:
MakeExplode
Play (for playing audio)
InvisibleTrigger
MakeOnFire
Elevate
Burn
etc (look on stamper tool)"
This is the same concept as free models. Or this could be percieved another way: you only have to type these in the script.
Either way, the scripts wont help them learn. The wiki teaches you WHY things work a certain way, not only how it works.

Yeah like some basic scripts that are made by roblox and you can edit them |
|
|
yes but that wont help
its like free models
the wiki is the documentation for how and why it works like that
again this is useless |

Support, will help little kids
Would be more useful, though, if it told you the purpose of parts of the script and allowed you to put it in like a jigsaw puzzle |

@cp
the point of this is to help kids learn lua with simplified tips and explanations
the wiki is vague and hard to understand for average or below average kids
when they put in one of the scripts(makeExplode, makeOnFire, etcetera), a prompt would show up saying "Want to see how the script works?" and the user would be able to choose
"Yes" or "No"
if they choose yes, the script they inserted will pop up and at first glance(if the kid has no scripting knowledge), it will confuse them
little boxes with tips inside them will show up with an arrow pointing towards a part of the script
for example, say they inserted the makeExplode script
--// Code
local explosion = Instance.new("Explosion")
explosion.Parent = game.Workspace
explosion.Position = script.Parent.Position
--// CodeEnd
for the first line, (local explosion part), the tip prompt would show up saying "This makes the explosion appear!" and in that same tip box it would say "Skip" (which would bring them to the next line) and "I need a better explanation on that..." (which would make another prompt box show up with a more in-depth tutorial on that
this would generally make kids grow fonder of lua and want to see how other scripts work, and see what else they can do with other, non-built in scripts

>Can't figure out what 2 lines of code that creates a fire does
Just give up |

the greentext spam is unbearable
kids who arent very smart/tech savvy will maybe not know what this means, and if they do, they press the "skip" button when they are asked if they want to see how the scripts works

@zaniac
Have you ever thought about the fact that 90% of children would just click "No" when the prompt comes up to see how the script works? |

@sald
then they're not interested in scripting |
|
|
This is wrong its like free models they just take script. Wiki shows how something works but don't give you a full script you need to make it yourself what makes it better to learn also if people cant really figure out how to make fire, should actually give up.
