The wikia LUA tutorials are so vauge, that I could stick my foot through the gaps of knowledge you need in the subject, also it's outdated.

For user like me, who learn differently, can you make codes that we could reverse engineer, learning that way? I don't learn by reading something, trying it, trying it again, reading it again, repeat. It's so boring that it hurts me. I want something that challenges my brain, learning without tutorials, figuring out what works with what and why it works with it. It's a far better way to learn imo, because the wikia feels like school. Very easy and doesn't challenge me at all. The wikia is made for people who do good in school only because they do what they are asked. For people like me it's just a pain to sludge through the wikia, trying to make sense of things, but can't, because we aren't just made that way.


P.S if any good coders come here, can you give me scripts to reverse engineer? I REALLY don't think that wiki is gonna update anytime soon.

^ That actually made me laugh, lol.
I plan on using free models, which is why I included reverse engineering
Sorry, I guess that was as vague as the wikia
though its still trash

I agree, but errr, where is the suggestion?

I don't like OT, but I don't mean to denigrate those who do. And for the people that do use OT, denigrate means 'put down'.

Your fault for not being smart.
Smart people shall rule the world!!!
anyway, wikia is the only way to to it, the other ways are vague.
Try tutorials button from studio>>view>>tutorials>>Scripting tutorials
or
go to this site: scratch.mit.edu
it helps you learn basics of programming

What? You're insulting my intelligence without knowing me prior to my post. It may have been a joke, but it's a dumb one. I don't learn the usual "read this do that" way. It's too easy and too boring. Something that challenges your brain is fun, unlike the wikia, which is why I suggested it.

I don't need help in programming, I just want to learn to program LUA on roblox, since I am currently teaching myself java and c++. Very basic though, I will look up tuts when I get to the advanced stages.

@Arctic,
No, it's because they hate nubcaiks and noobs. Duh.

Why don't they give us a preview of scripts before we have to open studio and use it that way?
It makes me sad that I have to check all of the scripts I will be compiling

wait maybe I could make a script list for people to use to learn scripting
I COULD DO THIS
I COULD BE THE ONE

I'm really glad I was born in the information age. You can learn so much these days that it's insane.

Like, all you need to start teaching is R$100 and you can get pupils by speaking to them on the forum.

Or Roblox could pay devs to make more devs, thus instead of the DevEx program being about making money off of games, it could be able helping others also

What am I rambling about? DevEx program is never gonna be about making developers also. :/

Learning lua?
Try learning C first, Lua is derived from C.

I understand that, most of the things from Java and C++ are similar, sorta making them interchangeable.
