[CLOSED - R$100K] Looking for a scripter to review existing code

[Mr_Wiggles]

About The Game

It’s a meme border game… not sure what else to say

I’ve always worked with other people in projects, so I created this game as a learning experience to test and push the limits of what I could do by myself.

The game exploded in popularity in very early stages of development, and I’m working on a remastered version. The game is very basic and has very few scripts in total.

You can see my progress so far here: Remastered Beta - Roblox

About The Job

I’m looking for a programmer who’s willing to look over my already existing code, explain what/where I went wrong, and offer solutions on how to fix it and how to prevent making the same mistake in the future. I’m not asking you to rescript my game or script for me. I’m looking to resolve the issues below in a timely manner, within 1-2 days.

Let me make this clear: I’m not hiring you to be an official developer for the game. I’m hiring a teacher/mentor. As I stated above, the project was created as a solo project as a learning experience. The reason I’m hiring someone is because even after rescripting the game a total of three times (the second time with the help of my friend @JohnnyMorganz), these very same bugs continue to persist.

Issues

Please keep in mind these issues only occur in servers with 40 or more people in them

Issue 1. - showing Roblox default tool equip playing even after letting go of a tool and bubble chats showing minutes after being typed

Issue 2. Showing Roblox default tool equip failing to play (it takes a while to play it) and more bubble chats that continue to display minutes after being typed

Issue 3. Showing white bar in the Roblox classic chat failing to display after pressing slash to type (shows me talking to prove that I am typing)

Issue 4. Arrows failing to clear

Issue 5. Bow delay

Tobias is a good friend of mine. You should help him out since he is offering a large amount of money to review his code and tell him whats wrong with it

Issue 1.: That is mostly given by Lags. Tool Animation that is still there and bubble Chat messages that come later then u wrote it is just an issue by the Roblox Servers. I don’t think u can do there anything specified.

Issue 2.: Same problem as 1. Animation doesn’t really load. Lag reasons.

Issue 3.: (Not really understanding what u mean with that)

Issue 4.: (Are the arrows created by Scripts or by Roblox Studio? If they are Scripted add a Script that would auto-remove them after a little amount of time. If they are in Roblox Studio, They should go away on next Start and not show on Servers.)

Issue 5.: Still lag reasons

After all: I think most issues are from Server lags from Roblox.

I might have to agree with @2014patrick here with lag being a problem. You mentioned that you rescripted the game multiple times, but have you changed the map? The original game doesn’t seem to have the issues you mentioned. That may be the source of the problem, along with the large player servers.

To try and save you some money, I recommend asking the people at #development-support:scripting-support and #development-support:building-support before you hire someone. If you haven’t already, try taking a look at the microprofiler to find the source. This thread may help you with that.

Good luck!

[Mr_Wiggles]

I actually haven’t tried changing the map, but the map is less than 5K parts. It shouldn’t be an issue.

I have tried looking at microprofiler, but I’m unsure of how to use it or what any of it means. I’ll be sure to take a look at the thread you linked me!

I’ve also been dealing with major lag spike issues in my game, Tower Defenders.

Here’s the post for more context, and I hope this can help you in your journey in fixing the lag.

My best advice with a problem like yours is making sure there’s no memory leak. Check the Script Performance tab to see if any scripts are overworking or are the cause of the lag.

Best of luck!

I can’t agree with @2014patrick’s answer as its extremely misleading and almost completely incorrect. “Lag reasons” isnt an answer nor should it ever be.

All of these problems are usually caused by bad scripting practices and can be easily fixed, none of these is Roblox’s fault I assure you.

I’d be willing to go in and fix every single one of these for free unless I end up having to re-write something.

@i_ncendiarism Is right about using that category, but since we are here, I’m willing to help.

I’ve sent you a message on discord as well. Stratiz#7821

[2014patrick]

Well, The funny thing is. I am having the same problems on different Games with correct scripted Scripts. Even simple Scripts with just 3 lines to run something.
