i had to learn this the hard way. its actually simple. Its computer scripting code. heres a simple one: debounce = false --this makes it so you dont bounce backwards function onTouched(hit)--this is function. this is basicly what the main thing it will do is. if debounce == false then--just a part to make sure of somthing debounce = true msg = Instance.new("Message")--this is for a message. it tells its a message. msg.Parent = game.Workspace--this means the message will apear in the game for everyone instead of who touches it. msg.Text = "insert message here"--the message wait(3)--how long it shows up msg:remove()--makes the message go away debounce = false--make it false again end--make it end end script.Parent.Touched:connect(onTouched)--just some stuff at the end for the rest of function. all of this makes a message appear on the screen. it may seem complicated, but really its basic scripting, which is a main part of making a ROBLOX place. hope that helped.
