It would be cool to actually make a game that can go to front page.

Like how do you learn it? Is it just you typing random things? Or is there a video or something.

No it's not typing random things .-.


Tutorial videos, a LOT of practice, and digging apart free models.

@Unitum

I learned my lua by inserting free modeled scripts, deleting them and trying to retype the script in a new script. I also learned more lua by watching ROBLOX's tutorial videos and other tutorial videos on youtube. wiki.roblox.com also has a bunch of cool example scripts

@Powered thanks
Noob question, what is difference between Lua and regular scripting.
Or are they the same thing.

Only an idiot would learn by using free model scripts.
So many of them are infested with bad practices.

Ehh camera manipulation isn't the easiest thing to start learning..

I'd say stick with printing, get a feel for the syntax, variables, strings, etc. then start digging apart free models. The wiki can guide you.

Scripting is easy to learn, although to become good at it, it takes time.

Try perusing YouTube for some scripting tutorials, there are many helpful resources there.

PS: You can always hire a scripter to script your game. Also you don't have to be a scripter to get games to the front page, look at Shedletsky's sword fights on the heights original, nothing but blocks!

Oh if you have questions about a script or how to get started with something, here are 2 more sources:

https://scriptinghelpers.org

or

http://forum.roblox.com/Forum/ShowForum.aspx?ForumID=33

Both will not make scripts for you, but if you attempted to make something and you just can't figure it out, check em out.
