I understand that scripting questions are asked probably every other day (if not many times more), but I'm wondering if anyone knows where I could learn it, and how it is used in Roblox so I don't have to ask each time.

In the mean time, I'd like to know how to do these things:
1. Put a message in the chat area
2. Find out how to get the words of a person (from chat) -- I believe it has something to do with "Function OnChat(...)" but not sure entirely how to use

3. Syntax, all the commands - where can I get these for Lua scripting?

Thanks for any info

What I'd love to do is learn it, then put it on the wiki myself! Well, something drastic, anyway. We need a tutorial, and I know only the basics.

I'll research it...

I don't really know how the wiki works, but I simply want to DO something. Seriously - can't you add things with an account - to some extent?

Anyway, I did a little research, and found this Lua site:
http://lua-users.org/wiki/AssignmentTutorial
It has all the syntax of it, and is quite large.

You checked out the site? Hey! You need to know the syntax first, then you can experiment with Roblox!

IF ANYONE HAS SOME CODE THAT...
-uses chat
-blocks chat
-adds bricks/changes them [though I think I get this a bit more than the rest of ti all]
-etc.

Please mesage me so I can learn from them.
Thanks

I said it above - it doesn't directly apply to Roblox, but it covers the basics. After that, all you need to do is look at the variables you can access, but if you can find even the most basic regen code or borrow some from somebody, you can learn what those variables are.

I'm hoping to somehow publish an easy, step-by-step tutorial on how to do everything with Lua in Roblox, if I have time and I can learn it.

I just need some sample scripts or Roblox variables, now. Anyone?
