Hey guys. I want to make a 4-directional combat system simliar to a game called “Mount and Blade II: Bannerlord” but I don’t really know where to start.
What I want to do is create a Sword Combat system where you can swing up, down, left, or right. When you block, you can also aim up, down, etc.
The big issue is that I don’t really know how to script. I’m not that good of a developer, so I don’t know where to start, and I also haven’t found a tutorial for a system like this on roblox.
Should I try to make a combat system like this or should I give up and use a free model?
If I do try and make it, could anyone give me tips on how to start or send me a link to a good tutorial?
I don’t want anyone doing all the work for me, because that would be shameful.
if you wanna create your own system like that, i’d suggest to try to learn scripting first. getting scripts from a free model or other scripters(unless you comission/hire them) is not a very good idea, bc when trying to implement parts into your actual game and/or add or remove things, it can cause a lot of bugs, confusion, and wont turn out very well over all.
also to start learning scripting, id recommend just looking through the api docs and reading up on specific services and such, when you don’t know what to use to get the result you want, ask on the dev forums and play around with that until you get a good hang of it.
some services to start on are: players, tween, contextaction, replicatedstorage, userinput, run.
those are just off the top of my head.
also learn how to use all of the keywords, not that many in lua but its very important.
