What if we were to all work on 1 single place? on a shared account possibly?

I mean, with all the RBX.lua skills here the game could stay as the #1 game for a few months.

I know front page isn't so great anymore, but i think it would be cool.

shared account == ban

Like the idea, but roblox rules won't let it happen.

@tech

thats because, i think, ROBLOX thinks we will share our primary account, and whoever we share it with will delete our stuff and whatever idiot that shares his main account goes to court, wasting time and money.

Mabye we can make a compromise with roblox? add like a "Buy BC to remove this ad" ingame?

More scripters = less efficiency, and I know this due to my own experiencing.

Meelo's law much? But yes it can get quite messy.

Meelo's law.

Because two people saying it already may not be enough to convince you.

lets say that one person works on GUI the other on physics and last on tools/interaction.

there should be pretty efficient code.

Yeh, but if it is a complex game then the variables have to all inter-twine together, and everybody would have to know what everyone was working on to make shure theres didn't break, or ruin the other person's work.

Lot's of bad stuff breaking, confusion, ect.

The best way is to do only one script, and make everything in a function. My group is doing that.

I was going to mention Meelo's law, until I saw two other people post about it. Scripters working together doesn't yield good results.

{ Have a short chunk of code that isn't working? Send me a message and maybe I can assist you. }

SpeedySeat is a shared account, why isn't IT banned? Or do the rules not apply to them?

Nah, they actually don't mind if you do it. Someone asked them about in an old blog post, and telamon said he didn't recommend it but he wouldn't stop them.

"shared.account = 'account';"

print(type(shared.account)) --> string

It's a shared string. not a shared account.

Most people here barely write code neat enough that they themselves can understand it or do any extension of it a week after they've written it, let alone neat enough that it would be of any use in a collaborative project.

I know I have. Just wrote an extension to the ROBLOX script mashing API I wrote 2 weeks ago for compiling type definitions and class property lists.

Though I seem to become less and less productive the more people depend on me...

My projects make me bored, so after a while, I quit. With my group project, we just slowed down.
