Hey developers! :waving_hand:

In this post, I’m sharing common scripting mistakes that beginners (and sometimes even experienced users) make while following Roblox Studio tutorials. Whether you’re learning Lua for the first time or troubleshooting broken scripts from YouTube videos or blogs, this guide will help you:

  • Understand why certain errors happen :stop_sign:
  • Learn the correct way to fix or avoid them :white_check_mark:
  • Improve your coding skills in Roblox Lua :chart_increasing:

:brain: Topics Covered:

  • Misusing LocalScript vs Script
  • Incorrect use of WaitForChild() or missing objects
  • Variable scope issues (local vs global)
  • Typos in event names (Touched, Clicked, etc.)
  • Improper parenting of scripts or objects
  • Using outdated APIs (e.g. BrickColor.new() instead of Color3.new())
  • Forgetting to use :Connect() for events
  • Logic errors (wrong conditions, misused loops, etc.)

Cool, but posts in Resources > Community Tutorials are meant to be made by you and not be some YouTube tutorials playlist, and even so, most of the videos you provided have nothing to do with any of these mistakes, and moreover, this post is entirely written by AI, it seems.
Unhelpful and misleading post, imo.

  1. Why’d you make this? like @Yarik_superpro said topics in Resources > Community Tutorials should be made by you, not just ** stolen**, i mean used YouTube videos.

  2. The videos didn’t even really mention these problems

  3. One of the vids was a joke about how hard scripting was

  4. It was made by AI

  5. Why’d you make this?
    Nobody gains anything from it?

  6. If it was for fun why did u use ai

Well, I don’t know about because it most if I write too much one hand will be tired because more than I use AI because the faster is it I don’t want to write by my keyboard. It will take time.
