Hi, today I will be writing a completely different topic. From many days I am wanting to learn to script, but after coming here where I am now I learnt everything except scripting like 3D Modelling, building, graphical designing. Please help me to learn to script, thanks.
YouTube tutorials are your friend here. There are some great beginner to pro series if you’re more of a visual learner.
Honestly though, from experience when I pick up new languages I try to do brain exercises. Start with something small, for example, maybe start with how do you get the players name who touched a part. You can learn a lot simply through here about stuff like that. Once you get the basics and fundamentals, you could try looking through random scripts you find as solutions on the developer forum, or even go in the toolbox and find interesting scripts, and try your best to understand what the script is doing. If you don’t understand it, you can always google the parts you don’t understand and make it fit a piece of the puzzle.

The developer hub is a good place to start. It has a lot of tutorials on how to do many things.

Thank you so much! I will surely try it!
To be honest ,scripting isn’t about learning syntax, in-built events and functions etc.
It’s the process of understanding the problem, thinking of the different paths to your goal, and have a good problem solving strategy.
That’s why people say if you can code in one language, you just need the syntax to code in any language. I suggest that you do not start with scripting on Roblox in the beginning.
Try a language first, like base Lua, or Python.
Once you feel that you’re conversant with that and have developed a problem solving approach, start Roblox Studio - and try to use this → Learn Roblox
I am a professional 2D Java Coder, and also I can relate many things. You are totally right. Thanks for all the help! And also I am good at Roblox Studio, so thanks for the effort!
