Here are some wiki pages that tell you the basics of the language.
After you understand these, you can use the site's search function to look up the different objects and services; and the events, properties, and methods for each.

Don't feed the troll, if he can make an account on Roblox he can probably copy and paste.

Im going to give you the best advice possible, which is this:

Scripting is not something that is like you learn one simple thing and then you understand it all. Scripting is learning a while different language. It will take a while.

I suggest learning basic tutorials first. The simplest thing you can acutally create with scripting is a dance floor, so try making that. It is literally only 3 lines of code, and those lines are fairly simple.

However, don't jump into a dance floor fast. First learn what variables are, what strings and numbers are, and how to move through the ROBLOX heirarchy. Those 3 things and while loops should lead you to creating a dance floor. All these things are beginners level in ROBLOX scripting.

It took me 2 years to get good at ROBLOX Scripting, 1 to learn all the terminology, and another to learn MORE terminology lol. It will take a while for you too.

Also, you may not get something the first time you read it, which is totally normal when learning a language. Try looking it up somewhere else. YouTube has great beginner scripting tuts, and so does the ROBLOX Wiki.

Hope this helps!

It took me a day to learn, and 3 months to master (ish)

But I had prior knowledge of other languages such as VB and JavaScript and a bunch more.

Honestly, it shouldn't take more than 5 days of hard work to learn Rbx Lua if you spend about 5-10 hours a day and revieewing.

Here's a good 1 hour put in 1 second:

variables are declared as: varname = value;
local variables (work only in the scropt) are declared as: local varname = value;

value can be numbers, strings, booleans, arrays, objects, etc.

@Cnt

There is no way you can learn ROBLOX Lua or ANY langauge in a day unless maybe if it is not your first langauge. If it is your first langauge, there is NO WAY you can learn it in a day..

@smiley

Ok sounds good. Just 1 problem: Don't wait 2 years then expect to randomly learn it, learn it slowly throughout however long it takes. It just took me 2 years, but it could take others 1-5 years even :P. Maybe less, maybe more. Depends. What matters is that you learn it, not how long it takes.

It took me less than a year to get where I am now. I just experimented in SBs for the first 1-2 months.

You must find the island of ROBLOX, and enter into the candy cane caves, but beware you must fight off the mighty Telanoms, and enter into the island's heart... There you will find the secret of learning...

OR alternatively you could go to the ROBLOX wiki and have a poke around there.
