I'm looking to create a proper set of tutorials for scripters to get up to the level where they can make original maps such as ones by me and other great scripters.
I'm approaching the level of the Elite-scripter allready after only 2½ months on roblox, and I'm going to try and create a set of tutorials to bring Budding and or Average scripters allong the path I took to advanced scripting.
The reason I'm creating this thread is because I'm looking for some people to help Proofread/Improve the tutorials I write, since I have Horrible spelling =S, and I'm shure there are many others who could express ideas better than I could.
So if you're intrested in helping ou the general public with my tutorial project, post here =). |

Ill proofread. I think the tutorial idea is a great 1. I want 2 help begginer scripters get off 2 a better start.
PS. Did you have any previous experience with another programming language? Cause you seem like a realy fast learner. Yay! Its almost 7:00 AM! |

I'll proof-read for you, too. I'm a very accomplished scripter, I would say so myself. =) I wrote a tutorial, but MrDoomBringer deleted it. ='( Anyway, I'll be happy to help. |

I'm writing them in long format, explaining everything so well that no-one can not get them;). so hopefully this can bring an end to huge crowds of noobs who want to learn scripting.
One thing I'm adding is making it like a lesson in school, where it occasionaly askes you to figure out something on you own, and fill it in somewere, then check if you go it right.
These tutorials will be written inside of scripts, as large block comments, because that way, I can show examples of line of cade as they would be in a real script =P |

TravisDep....
I hadnt had any previous experience, but I think part of the reaon I learned so fast... even before the absolute begginers guide came out, was because of the path I followed, That's why I want to help Others with it ;)

Good idea. So, are you going to put models as "Scripting Lessons" in scripts? |

Well, I'll have all the lessons each published separatly, on one of my accounts, specificaly made for that purpose.
And that way I can have supplimentary objects inside of the script, that go with the lesson ;)

If he publishes it as a model then everyone will be able to use it...
What I suggest:
Use each tutorial script as a certain section. This is what I mean:
This is how my tutorial was written before it was removed
1. Basics
2.Values
3.Wait functions
4.Variables
5.true/false
6.onTouch function
7.findFirstChild
8.GetChildren()
Kind of set it up like that, so it gradually goes along. |

Ok. I'll sign up for scripting lessons because I am not too good at it. Also I have very good spelling. |

You should also make deeper into scripting.
Not explain wait or so but make advanced scripting... i dunno excacly what but like the angel of the way the mouse is pointing at or something =) |

by the "angel of the way the mouse it pointing" i assume you mean what the lookVector of the mouse's Hit Coordinate frame is.
Even I dont know exactly what that is, I assume it's a lookVector formed by where the mouse hit, and the position of your character's torso. That is what the teleknesis tool does, it uses the lookvector of mouse.Hit, and multiplies that by about 200, to find where to make the parts hover arround. |

I'm not an elite script, I know, but that's mainly because i've simply had less time to examine the finer points of the roblox objects.
After all I've only been playing for about 3½ months so far, and I dont have that long on each day, as I have to share a computer with my brother =S
You'd have to admit though, that my Conquest I game is one of the best created so far in roblox, I'd say it at least gets in the top 20.
And Conquest II will be the best =P
What does the lookVector of mouse.Hit show?, I havent had time to look into that yet =P |

Question! How you make a minigame (for a friend)? He tried at least 9 scripts but none of them work. He also needs points to be added! How do you make one? |
