I believe I have a sufficient knowledge of the syntax of RBX.Lua to attempt this challenge.
However, I'm stumped on what to do for my application. I'd like to do something unique, beneficial, and practical. Something I can release to the community that they would be able to use.
Just keep in mind that I am not very advanced when it comes to mathematics. However, Google is my friend.
Got any ideas, Scripters?
(And if this is the wrong forum for this request, kindly refer me to the proper section without spamming me with 'GET OUT'.) |

Become a wiki writer; help writing tutorials and documenting objects. That's a perfectly valid way to get in the Master Scripters group, because it is easy to judge a person's scripting skill by reading scripting tutorials he wrote.

1. basic character with no customisation. 2. one worded name with no letters and some random definition. 3. uses big words in post.
watch out, we got a pro here.
btw, why the heck are you wasting your time trying to get into master scripters anyway? how about just make a good game to proove to the front page you are a master scripter instead of working to get into that group and have the words "Master Scripter" below your forum avatar. |

| I want to enter Master Scripters, but I'm not going to create a project just for that. If I someday create a game, I will submit that. |

Seriously, become a wiki writer. That's the best you can do for the community, and it'll definitely prove that you can script if you can actually write good tutorials.

xSIXx,
I've considered throwing my weight into a front page game, but I honestly do not feel like taking the effort at this time, considering that my sense of design is rather flawed. I would end up with some vaguely impressive machine thingy that no one would know how to use or be able to use practically.
Unlike much of today's generation, I don't believe so much in public reputation as the feeling of having been able to work; achieving something; as I was under the impression that Master Scripters have standards set. Standards that would make me feel good about myself.
And by the way, 1) Not BC. And I don't care about having an overly elaborate character. 2) I understand that namesnipes are rather popular in this game, and it was also related to my intense interest in coordinate frames and animation at the time. 3) I'd rather be eloquent and use 'big words' than use a ton of little words that take twice as long to get the right meaning across. |

| Make a very large geodesic globe, which people could use, (as seemlessly as possible), as a standard 3D Roblox Baseplate. Gravity would draw u to the center of the "Planet", and your head would always be pointing away. The math is Googlable, I'm sure; no longer a military secreat. |

| Don't bother getting in. It's not worth anything. The only standard to getting in is your post count in the Scripters forum and how well the owner/admins like you. |

Well they say to put advanced metatables and math
but i'm sure they're more interested in metatables, since math shouldn't really be part of the group....

@BJ,
Tried to make it months ago... but studio crashed ): Though I do have a screenshot-thingy in my decals, and the hardest stuff at the moment I tried to do it was to recreate the camera controls.
- As, @Radio: Call it "The Infinite OzmagawdHax Obbi 4laif!!!!111!111!Cake!!1!!11!" |

| You could make a simplisticly amazing robot controlled from a controller that goes to a sort of static screen on the robot so you can see through the robot's eyes and the robot should be able to walk in a way that it doesn't look simple like bending joints in the arms and or legs (if it's all possible) also have other things like rockets on the feet (kinda like iron man) that'll make it fly around but while flying make sure it doesn't awkwardly move arms or legs. and when you do certain things it will react in different ways like you exit the screen and say something like " /return " and it'll go back to it's original place or operation if you could do that you would be a god. |

| I find it interesting that a lot of you still believe the myth of the ugly front page. There has been a notable jump in quality of the games, and low quality games generally leave the front page quickly. Things are looking up, we might be headed into a golden age. Buy your stocks now, and sell before the depression comes. |

BJCarpenter,
I've actually had a theory floating around in my head on how to handle that. In fact, if I decided to do that, I might be able to rig up a Super Mario Galaxy-esque system which would allow for gravity in random directions and being able to planet hop. I'll consider that idea, thank you.
AustenDavis,
That, honestly, doesn't seem all that complicated, although it would fit in somewhat with the AI system I'm working on, since I have yet to find a sufficient method of motion. I'll consider it, thank you.

By the way, how advanced would a motion detector using Region3 be? |
