yaaaas
how old are u?????
Didn’t you are to fast, not precisely eplaining the language in anyway
@@Kmon-ri6qi ikr!!!!!!
happy Lua
That first minute and 23 seconds had me motivated as hell.
You're an absolute legend.
Thank you those words mean a lot to me.
thanks ill skip that part
@@StrackIsBack bro couldnt resist being a dick
top tier glazing💀💀
facts
I loved this. It was straight to the point and I sorta needed this. Watched a bunch of beginner script series and don't feel like spending hours watching them for the 50th time. So, this worked as a refreshener for me, not too long, but not too short. Thanks to those beginner script series this refreshener made a lot of sense to me for certain codes.
I agree that it is good cuz it’s short but I wish I did understand at least some of it
@@quintezewright629 gotta watch other videos too bro. That’s what I did
Fr
@@Masterhong546 Fr Fr
This is just a refresher a brand new scripter wouldn’t understand a thing
You know, I honestly think the underrated part of this was the Motivation, its easy to get demotivated and dissapointed with yourself while doing things like this, I think motivation like that is just what someone needs.
I'm glad I could motivate you a bit :) Keep learning and I wish you the best ❤

Bro needs to teach his barber how to script haircuts 💀
@@BAKON581 bro needs to code a refund lmfao 😂
@@S_auce 😆😆😆
This is very helpful! I really liked how you explained each item in a concise, clear way!!
I've done a bit of Roblox Lua before, years ago when I was still young, it was what made me choose my course in Information Technology, this is such a great refresher coming back trying to learn this, wonderful video man!
i assume you use coding in it?
Glad I could help you out bro!!!
Notes i took up to 6:31:
Roblox Scripting Basics
Variables: Stored To Replace Keywords To Different Keywords In Script
Local: Defines The Scope
Properties: The Elements Of an Object
How To Change Properties In Script: local block = workspace:FindFirstChild("MyBlock") *Second Line* block.Brick(Property) = Brick(Property).new("New Propety")
Strings: Sequences Of Characters
Strings Examples: local myString = "Hello World!" ** Local Greeting = "Hello, " ** local name = "John"
Combining Strings: print(String Name 1..String Name 2) Outcome: String Name 1 String Name 2 Example: print(greeting..name) Outcome:"hello John"
Strings Effectiveness: Can Store Lines, Words, And Setences
nil: Nothing/no Value
Nil Example: local myVar = Nil
Nil Example Outcome: game.Workspace.MyVar = nil
Nil Effectiveness: Removing Variables Example: If you Put an Object in Nil, It Cant Be Effected In The Script And The Object Cant Effect The Script
Raining: isRaining
Variable: Var/myVar
Block: block/myBlock
wait command: Stops a Object/Variable For a Specified Time Example: wait(10)
wait used in Command: print("1") Wait(10) Print("2")
NO COMMAS IN NUMBERS: Example, 1000 *Correct* 1,000 *Incorrect*
Second Hand Printing: local Line = FRR *Second Line* print(Line): When You Define A Scope To An Object/Variable You Can Use A Method To Print That Scope Out
task.wait > wait
Multiplication: *
Division: /
Subraction: -
Addition: +
Equal: =
Paranthesis: ()
Functions: blocks of code that you can execute multiple times on command
Function Example: local function sayHello() *Line 2* print("hello World!") *line 3* End
what is "End": this marks the end of a block of code
Functions And Combining Strings: local function sayHello() *Line 2* print("Hello "..name) *line 3* End *line 4* sayHello("John"), Outcome: Hello John
Functions Can Also Return Values
local localvar = "i am local"
globalvar = "i am global"
Example of math:
local function addnumbers(num1, num2)
print(num1 + num2)
end
addnumbers(4,6)
Or
local function Multiplynumbers(num1, num2)
return num1 + num2
end
addnumbers(4,6)
If Anyone Can Correct Me Or Help Me I will be Appreciative
at the end, its print(addnumbers(4,6)) i think.
oh and multiply numbers isnt +, its *
THANK YOU OKG
This video is always saved in one of my tabs. Every single beginner guide I watch, they spend half the time talking about their new games they are making, asking you to like and subscribe, and just don’t really focus on their main topic. They also make everything look so easy. I love this video because it gets straight to the video. Also, more than half the video is focused on the main topic :). Underrated UA-camr honestly
i just started watching, but this look VERY friendly and worth it! I've always wanted to make my own roblox game but always struggled since most tutorials didn't show too much of the basics, or were WAY too long.
how is it going
I'm glad I helped you out :) thanks for these words it means a lot to this community.
This completely helped me use raycasting besides other stuff.
This is amazing, I would recommend this for beginners.
the motivation part gave me some comfort :D thank you!
❤❤❤
Thanks for making us this video. Makes it a whole lot easier to understand just by watching this video!
Glad I could help :)
Thank you!!!
I first thought that Lua was super different than Roblox Lua but it is a little similar! Thank you!
Love this and love you! That energy is on point! Keep up the good work my man! Happy coding!
Happy coding man! ❤
This video is more straight to the point than straight to the point itself
its a quick tutorial about the basics of coding and teaches WAYYY faster than other coding tutorials
i would reccommend
and to the creator; you can do num += 1 instead of num = num + 1
still does the same thing in the end doesnt it? i see it more as a preference
@@tinnyreviews you write less in the former so
@@tinnyreviewsit’s less about preference and more about optimizing your code. Think of it this way if you’re using that string in a script lets say for example because you didn’t shorten your code 100 lines would be 20kb (not actually true, just an example for the sake of my point) but if you shorten the small things and optimize your code that 100 lines could get shortened to lets say 70 lines and the file size of the script would be only 11kb. The more you optimize your code the better things run as well since the computer is reading less to accomplish the same task. Now on roblox it’s not *necessarily* needed unless your making some huge game with multiple devs
I'm glad I could help. Any other questions you got make sure to reach out :)
having a motivational speech at the start of the video is insane levels of dedication
I'm glad I could help motivate developers like you ❤ stay positive brother
this was the best roblox tutorial i have seen, i have looked for a while
Wow! I might try this tomorrow! Thanks! ❤
This is the first time i actually understands the way he is explaining Lua. As a French person, learning English Lua is different, but i still can understands how lua works.
I'm also a french person trying to learn english lua
I’m also French and I’m trying to learn how to make Roblox games aswell
@@xlasherraiser7497 yeah, its a mix between c# and lua to make it easier for kids that want to script
Amazing video, keep up the great work👍
Thank you so much! You keep up the great work scripting and I'll see you when you become a successful developer! :) ❤
Thank you I’ve been looking for this
:)
congrats on 6k!
Thanks you. Video was interesting and this will really help me in Lua learning. I'm Beginner and finally I can understand more.
❤ Thank you so much I'm so glad I could help you out
Single handedly the BEST beginner course to intro to lua.
ONE DAY OR DAY ONE? I’ve wanted to be a game designer my entire life. I’m currently entering my junior year of college as a game design major and I’ve been 3D modeling since I was 15 and programming since I was 11. I’m done waiting for the right moment. The moment is now. Thanks for the motivating beginning, man
holy shit i actaully know how to do basic lua now in 20 mins. like long frfr no cap I have learned more from this video then from any other videos in the past 4 years. THANK YOU MAN!
TYSM!! You're a lifesaver!
The motivation part is much needed, keep it up!
Thank you, i definitely will keep it up! ❤
i'm a person who really wants to learn code and this really motivates me thank you dude!
Awesome video man, right now im taking notes and im in 4:33 minutes in and ive been writing for 1 and a half hours your are very informative
hey bro, my english isnt that good. Can you tell me what we learned from this? ty man
Nice
no extra fluff just straight to the point
Glad I helped
bro i thought this is beginner friendly. I understood none😂@@TheRobloxCoach
@@radiantaction7325 Thats because you dont even bother to learn the basics and dont even put effort to your projects you are just going to end up in a dumpster in life
Thank you, this was very helpful. Now I can start the roblox game dev journey
Perfect, much love keep it up ❤
What I love about this is that it just tells you all the important pieces without splitting them up into making 20 different microgames based around each mechanic.
youre not gonna learn unless you "split the up into microgames" do you honestly think scripting is easy? i came back to watch this as recap but i would never watch this as my very first scripting video, its so poorly detailed and youd learn absolutely nothing in the long run
@@tomwestling1133 exactly, if you can't piece together the motivation to learn the basics of scripting then you will struggle to apply it even if you already knew it.
I'm glad I could help!
Honestly one of, if not the best Roblox Developer UA-camrs. He actually has a successful game so you at least know what he's talking about and that he's a trustful source. Keep doing you man and keep up the great work👍♥
Thank you:)
So does TheDevKing, AlvinBlox and Suphi Kaner, but this is the first extremely useful resource I’ve seen posted by this guy no more short form content this is what you should do g
@@Smurfis Don't forget CovertCode his series is just really good, but outdated since we don't know what happened to him.
@@Smurfis thanks! :)
He has a game? What one?
Im confused you went a litte fast
Pause the video. Slow it down. Multiple things you could have done. I understood perfectly because I used these methods. You can use them too.
thank you for not farming views over a 30 multiple video guide. I'm definitely subscribing for any more tutorials or showcases
The problem with these short videos is that he rushes and doesn't explain everything about a certain thing... While the Multi video series videos actually explain the things fully.
@@domtu7129 u can see this video and if u misunderstood thing, then go to the full explained video of this thing
BRO HAD ME HYPED UP AF
okay soo after some practicing and stuff i now got the basics ty
Thank you Bro!
This Tutorial helped me alot thanks!
Glad to help!
The tutorial we all needed
I come from Java and this is a great video that just helps me translate what I know from Java to Lua!!! Thanks!
No problem!
I already knew how to code in python and java, so this just gave me nostalgia to my old coding classes...
im on minute three I can tell ill be learning a lot thank you. :edit: wow minute 6 helped so much
Thx dude, helped me to understand that all code languages is similar to themselves like lua c# java and c++
This the best roblox studio tutorial in my opinion, ty
Glad I could assist you.
this is the most complicated video i have ever seen in my entire life
He just taught me how to use if else or elseif statements im definitely gonna keep watching this video.
I didn't even get to the scripting part and I could tell I was gonna love this guy. Subscription earned
We gon' create a SPFS Clone with this one
😊im very new to coding, new year new me!
Watching this was sooo confusing but its helping. I hope i can learn enough to develop my own Roblox game, thank you for your video💗!
How good are you?
@@voiddestroyer6471 im still pretty much a newbie but I take notes everyday and do simple project's/experiments on Roblox p
Thanks for this video, I learned so many things in one night! lol
This was a very helpful tutorial, and I appreciate it very much, although it was really fast its understand able for a 20 minute tutorial.
I love that coach's looking at our souls xD
xD anyways thanks for commenting bro keep learning more i believe in you!
I am making a game with cars and so need it to learn lua for coding but this tutorial seems that it will learn me all the things I need
I love how I've heard 30 different versions of coding's useful speeches to the extent I just expect them at the beginning of any "lesson" or learn to code video
Also, thank you for being straight to the point and actually covering multiple codes. Not sitting there for 30 minutes explaining how one line of code says hello
no problem, and thank you for spreading positivity in the roblox coach community ❤
I doing great bro keep up the great work
Thanks ❤ you too bro
only thing i would recommend for the future is moving your facecam to a spot that wont block something you are actively typing/doing. other than that, great video!
Bro was SELLING SCRIPTING like his life depended on if and i loved it . LET'S GOOOO
Your intro made me believe in myself. I'm hoping to utilize this tutorial for script creations for Transport Fever 2.
Glad to be a help. :)
The intro made me forget this was about Roblox 💀
Bro lives in "the lvl you cheated" from backrooms
i thought the same
you room looks like it would be perfect for playing VR games, nothing to hit nothing to knock over, clean room 👍👍
Honestly yea I moved out a couple months ago haha
That intro tho >>>>
Yo man I’m thinking about buying your course, can you tell me a little bit about what it covers, also is it premade courses or is it live action?
dude that speech in the beginning gives me that 3AM motivation
best tut ever
the lua deity has given us more divine knowledge
:D
Took a 2 hour lua youtube course, should know some of the things to start. It didn't include roblox parts and such, but that's fine.
When you're the on making a tutorial you think it's very easy to learn from it but for the people who don't already know it it's just confusing lol. Though these tutorials are a bit easier to understand now that I know a bit of Javascript.
True. I'll try to improve that in my next videos!
9:53 i need this :) ❤
For the people who are struggling, I’d recommend learning another language, such as python or JavaScript, build a couple projects, then come back, this will make LUa 10 times easier to understand
isn't lua is small and easier compared to python?
Hey RobloxCoach, I was wondering if you could make a tutorial how to make like a roblox boxing game? I mainly need punching, gloves, and dodges. I would appreciate if you did
Yes, maybe for the English community it is easy to understand, but for people who are Spanish or speak some Latin language it is very difficult, you see, it has nothing to do with the language, but with the people who are in the language,
lua works in English, and many Mexican or Latin-speaking people did not have or do not even have the opportunity to study English, so that is where the first complication comes,
The second is that if there is someone who knows Lua in Spanish, it is very difficult for it to expand, because in most cases, either they sell you a non-existent course, or they simply make videos with "copy the script from the description"
and it doesn't help at all
There is no one who teaches us, much less who wants to teach us,
I know it's shit, but that's life haha
good video damn
ty
i could have chosen unity but i've been passionate about roblox for years man. so many tutorials out there were made by or for kids, finally i found this hidden gem.
And I could have chosen Love2D so i could make very cool 2D games (even cooler than Unity!!!!!1+1112)
hey, do you think you could code a keycard door , but the keycard hides when its clicked and checks a boolvalue in the player, and when you click the keycard reader it checks for the true bool and if its true opens? This would help a lot for my horror game.
that is a good idea.
Ty
What’s crazy is I’m doing Fivem GTA and I learned from this
OMG THX ... no a serie of 6H ...
He had me sold in the first minute. lol. i'm locking in.
Thanks brother. Keep up the good work.

Just remember that learning to script takes a while and you won't master it in two weeks, just keep on going and don't get discouraged.
Any helpful tips to learn better? Like watching videos, looking at open source games and trying to understand them, or looking at pre-made objects made by people?
i need this
This video is great for listening to but i dont think i would be able to follow along if i were trying to type all this
