Releasing my boomerang tool

I was bored. So I decided to make and give out this to everyone. Oh well, have fun messing with it

Note: this tool may not include documentation and may have messy code. But I hope you learn something from it

one thing i can give is that the boomerang is… gigantic lol
maybe you can make the model smaller, the animations and effects are very nice!
edit: one thnk i notice is that the animation when first fired seems to be delayed

Hey, the boomerang is pretty cool, I just thought maybe if you would like some constructive feedback, you could have some: [My comment above got deleted]

  • the boomerang always travels a certain amount of studs forwards, making it clip through objects, so maybe you could raycast

  • You connect the hit reg to .Touched which is not the best, combined with this, it runs on the server, so if you wanted ultimate performance you could run it on client :wink:

  • I don’t know if it is the style you were going for, but the boomerang is quite big and you can hear the swooshing from quite far away

All things you mentioned were intended. And my tool was meant to be inspired by the one from the game I had been playing

Although I thanks to you for giving me constructive criticism, It is better that you should edit and improve it in your own way. Because I came here just to post my random resource that had been made in few hours in my boredom
Again, thank you for understanding

I never said it was bad?? I asked for permission to give you constructive criticism but I don’t know if you saw it because it got taken down for being off-topic. There is nothing which I said that is absurd or bad advice, except for maybe the boomerang size. And I think you are catching the boomerang a little too early, if i am not mistaken

about “delay catch”, it’s just a nature of physics based projectile in server side. It could have been done by using buffer, but meh, I don’t remember planning this

and about “boomerang size”, i think you made a repetition (re-mentioned it), because you didn’t fully read and understand my reply above. anyhow, just resize when you dont feel like it, it aint that hard lol

also, have a good day :slightly_smiling_face:

I was giving constructive feedback, I’ve made boomerangs that are more realistic and travel smoother, and have nicer curves. You shouldn’t get that defensive when someone gives you advice

i have other things to do and im not going to waste my time on arguing with you over my random resource and decision. but fr, dont make me tap the quote. thanks :slightly_smiling_face:

Trying to understand someone who is trying to give you constructive feedback and genuinely wants to help you improve in your scripting, doesn’t seem like such a waste of time to me

Basically what happened is that we had a really long argument chain, but he reported every single one of my messages. I’ll send screenshots of what I and @thienbao2109 said so it gives more context

Hey, harassing people is not cool, he isn’t here to fix his script, he just wanted to release his system, if you want something changed on the script you can do it yourself that’s why he released it in the first place
If he reported you, keep in mind that harassing people is against Roblox Toss, he did nothing wrong.

I don’t know where you got this idea what i am harassing him? Just because the guy above me who had 0 context of the conversation said it, doesn’t mean you need to pile in. I don’t wanna play victim, but if anything he is not the harassed. I asked if i could give him some constructive feedback and he went on a rant saying how if I want to fix it i can download it myself? He reported nearly every single one of my messages so in the last 3 days I have had 3 dm’s from mods for this post because he was angry. I will send screenshots of what I got reported for

Damn, mans really comin’ here to harass free resources for games. :pensive:
If it’s “constructive criticism”, then maybe you should relax and read what the person is saying before you act so harshly! There was inspiration, and programming to sync from the source of what he liked to play recently! Consider taking a step back to breathe; please don’t continue this argument any further.

On the bright side, wonderful job as always, theinbao! I’ve been a supporter for your FE Gun Kit, so it’s nice to see stuff from you from time to time! Super lovely. Keep up the good work!

Guys, think twice, this guy was just giving constructive criticism, I dont know why you guys are joining the wrong side, this is becoming discord right now, one person got harrased for no reason and ends up getting banned, no need to join the creator to harrass this guy

Thank you, it’s so easy to pile up against someone without seeing both sides of an argument. I was really hurt to see people accusing me of harassment as normally I always stand up for people.

I have absolute zero reason to harass @TheZanderius over resource. But the argument was provoked when he kept refusing to read/listen to my reply, even though I really admired his constructive feedbacks at first place. Now with the update i recently made for my resource, I hope this will satisfy him and ease his feelings.

Anyway, thanks for understanding. And have a good day

Cheers :happy1:

Thank you,
Even though i don’t fully accept your argument, can we be friends so future people don’t comment brainless comments without reading the whole thread?

It looks simple and classic. I like it! Keep creating awesome Community Resources like this.
