If you have 0 experience with coding then go to your local library and get a beginner's guide to programming. else on amazon, search "Roblox Lua" and look for Brandon LaRouche's books. I use them, and they helped me, but they have some bugs in the code, but the forum is here to help out
end -- see what I did there? |

| These are all tips, but I taught myself. Just edit, look at free models, and post questions on Scripting Helpers Forum (this.) |
