| To keep this short: what kind of tutorials does the ROBLOX Wiki lack that you've come across looking for? |

| In depth string manipulation, like the w% stuff, then when I see it on the Lua website, they never explain what they're doing, although they explain the w% stuff. |

| Animation in general. How to change the roblox animation script, and how to create an animation for guns and such. I know it involves welds and motors, which the wiki says almost nothing about. And when it does, it doesn't explain anything, just kind of hopes you understand. I would like to know how to weld arms to make a gun holding position, and how to create animations with guns. |

| TheAwesomedude, use CFrame; I doubt that we would be able to use animations. |

| I can't do anything in animation. I'd just look at my next scripting task and say, "Yup, i'm done for the day." |

I don't think Awesome is referring to actual animations, but the manipulation of welds and such.

I'll give you my way of how I use animation for a player using a tool; put this in the command bar.
arm = game.Selection:Get()[1] torso = game.Workspace.Torso
print(arm.CFrame - torso.Position)
Of course it will print out the cframe, so what you do next is put it in a table and run it with a generic for.
That's how I do it. :P |

ha-ha animating with welds :
1. create a tweening function 2. set key values for in between your CFraming with the command bar 3. connect it to an event
done. |
