Plugin price changes from January 3, 2024 (BlockLua, EventBlocks)
Hello developers!
I’m sorry to inform you, due to taxation law changes (on January 1, 2024) between the USA and Hungary, the price of BlockLua and EventBlocks will be raised by 46% and 40% on January 3, 2024
The new prices will be the following:
- BlockLua: 150 Robux (current price) → 219 Robux (46% price change)
- EventBlocks: 100 Robux (current price) → 140 Robux (40% price change)
Sorry for any inconvenience! I will try my best to deliver new, quality updates more frequently to match these new price tags.
Have a great day!

Hey, what is the difference between this version (“BlockLua”) and the cheaper one (“EventBlocks”)?
It is written in the post, faster and more optimized

Thanks for the answer. By the way great idea, especially for new people who want to make their first game in a simpler way. I wish you good luck in the development of the plugin.

Custom blocks bug fix!
When creating custom blocks, if you chose the “Value” block type there was a bug that the Lua code automatically got a line break at the end which caused issues when embedding these blocks into each other. Now there is no line break getting added automatically. However, you have to correct the affected blocks and also make sure you save them.

I got a question. Does it feel like it’s missing something?
Here are a few custom blocks I’ve made on BlockLUA:
Get Mouse Position(Raycasting method)
{"BlockOrder":0,"BlockType":"block","Code":"local userInputService = game:GetService('UserInputService')\nlocal camera = workspace.CurrentCamera\nlocal mousePosition = Vector3.new(0, 0, 0)\nlocal filterlist = !{ValueInput2}\n\nlocal RANGE = !{ValueInput1} -- In Studs\n\nlocal raycastParams = RaycastParams.new()\nraycastParams.FilterDescendantsInstances = filterlist\nraycastParams.FilterType = Enum.RaycastFilterType.Exclude\n\nlocal mouse2DPosition: Vector2 = userInputService:GetMouseLocation()\nlocal mouse3DRay: Ray = camera:ViewportPointToRay(mouse2DPosition.X, mouse2DPosition.Y, 1)\nlocal raycastResult: RaycastResult = workspace:Raycast(mouse3DRay.Origin, mouse3DRay.Direction*RANGE, raycastParams)\nlocal !{BlockVariable3}\n\nif raycastResult then\n !{BlockVariable3} = raycastResult.Position\nelse\n !{BlockVariable3} = (mouse3DRay.Origin + mouse3DRay.Direction*RANGE)\nend","IsEvent":false,"Name":"GetMouseWorldPos","RunAfter":true,"Category":"client","ID":"id3186961236-1704466613-024866","HasInside":false,"Content":[["Label","Get mouse world position | Range:"],["ValueInput","number",1],["Label","Blacklist:"],["ValueInput","list",2],["BlockVariable","MousePosition",3]],"Docs":"Gets the mouse position through raycasting.

Shoot ray from instance:

Rotate part by vector3

Advanced Tween Info Value Block:

for the next update i would recommend making it actually look like scratch, Not google blockly
Some QoL blocks added
I’ve added some ‘Quality of Life’ blocks to make coding more simple!
New text blocks:
Also some maths blocks:
You can update the plugin and try them out!
Have a great day!
Sorry for not updating lately, I am a bit burnt out and also busy nowadays.

I bought this plugin for my friend because he’s not very good at normal scripting but he cannot seems to be able to drag in the blocks. Could you help with this?
Please read the tutorial in the OP. Everything is written down step by step.
