Hey @TheDevKing, I know this is two years later but is it any different moving the part in the script with instances than moving it with the properties tab? Also if you could add me on discord PixelWolf#7206 I got banned from RoDevs last week and I wanna talk about it with you.

[@StudioScriptBuilders-fb9bu]

Because of you, your the reason I've gotten so much better at scripting. I am so fortunate to have you make videos on these subjects so inspired creators can be much better scriptors. Thanks for everything!

[@EldianVulk]

Hey I know I'm super late but I'm currently learning scripting and I'd love to give this tip to anyone learning using these tutorials. Once you finish a tutorial, give yourself a mini task associated with the lesson, and also try to connect it with concepts from previous lessons. It really helps! For example, after I watched this tutorial I was able to successfully make a script that made it so that when a player touched a part, rain would spawn and it would print "It is raining!" Simple things like that make learning a lot more effective and allow you to understand concepts better.

[@shxrp.ff2]

Can you share the script so i understand how to do it because i havent done it it’s actually pretty hard

[@GameWithRazor]

@@shxrp.ff2 This one is kinda buggy but it works,all you have to do is instert a part into workspace and keep the default name,then make a script in the workspace and type this code local CoolPart = game.Workspace.Part local function StartRain() while true do wait(0.1) local Rain = Instance.new("Part",game.Workspace) Rain.Position = Vector3.new(0,15,0) Rain.Size = Vector3.new(0.5,2,0.5) Rain.Anchored = false Rain.Transparency = 0.5 end end CoolPart.Touched:Connect(StartRain)

[@lightmare312]

i also made a rain destroyer so the rain gets destroyed when it touches the ground local plate = game.Workspace.Baseplate plate.Touched:Connect(function(hit) if hit.name == "Rain" then hit:Destroy() end end) EDIT: And 30 seconds later i realized the next video is about that xD oh well it was fun finding a way myself

[@Aussie17]

Lightmare lol i tried that but it didn't work

[@apisangunathilagarajah8877]

or you can just set the rain parts CanCollide to false, that way the rain will fall thru the ground.

Nice! Plz ask any questions you have.. I also have a discord server discord.gg/FKcSyRh

[@bullshitdepartment]

Listen, these tutorials are poorly structured and miss out key things. I recommend learning a coding language such as Lua or Java the language BEFORE learning an API such as roblox.

[@Cynz69]

[@rayne6871]

@Marcus Varisco sad?

[@BlizV2]

fun tip for rain in roblox studio (you dont even need to know how to script): 1. Add a part to workspace 2. Add a "Particle Emitter" to the part 3. Adjust the size of the part to the area you want the rain to cover 4. Adjust the settings of the particle emitter until it looks how you like

[@bumperman_]

I just did something I never thought I would be able to do... I solved a problem in a script without looking anything up or getting a free model. Thank you so much dude! I made my own landmine today.

Dev king every script tutorial: “Hey guys I know its been 6 mOnTH SiNcE i LaST upLoADed”

[@tezeu4671]

I figured out how to make the rain drops look like they splash(They get spawned and get deleted after one second) it looks so good it could be used for some game! Would only work as real rain if the size was a little more smaller and it wouldn't hit players(Just go through them) but this couldn't be used on a large map since the game would crash because of the amount of rain drops falling.

[@frostyfudge1662]

hey there stranger. just wondering if u wouldn't mind sharing your code on this script?

[@nome_name8473]

just make it cancollide false

[@qrisquinn]

Using instance.new would there be a way to make it so once you come to the edge of a block a new block or part spawns in? Almost like an infinite landscape that loads as you go.

[@jxshyyy17]

Quionew you could do when the part is touched destroy it and then put the position of the new part

[@snatchables9015]

im not gonna give you any source code, but you could easily do that by finding out the x + z position of the player, checking if its near the edge, and if it is then just duplicate the part that the player is standing on and change the position based on the players current x + y. put this in while true do and then you have infinite terrain. (keep in mind i came up with this off the top of my head, so it may not be entirely optimized)

[@callmehSpear]

use TouchEnded event

[@Aiguyonyt]

I just want to thank you because I am a really good scripter now and that’s because of you!❤. Thank you!

[@Gogopek]

For some reason its not spawning a block and i have the exactly same code

[@Jesa_Yuki]

Sameee

[@Jesa_Yuki]

So true it’s not spaning

[@epicgamerboy569]

I actually hooked the instance. new part with a click detector on a block so the new block auto spawns like normal but if you go to the block with the script in it and click it, the new block changes to a random color. that was my first instance. new script that actually fully worked on 1st try without testing

[@overseer_the_engineer]

How did you hook it with a click detector?

[@gdog8170]

@@overseer_the_engineer maybe he typed another instance and make that instance a click detector and set the instance parent in the parameter to the new part

[@lukediscord4166]

Loving the tutorials I cant wait to create my own game!!

[@troll2036]

in 4:09 you should assign parent last, i learned that its much better for performance i leave this tip for others :3 instead of: local NewPart = instance.new("Part", game.Workspace) (code) do this: local NewPart = instance.new("Part") (code) NewPart.Parent = (ur parent)

[@aurelius1620]

I also did the same thing but changed a few things. Script: local function ModifyPart () local Part = Instance.new("Part",workspace) Part.Position = Vector3.new(math.random,200,math.random) Part.Transparency = "0.5" Part.Size = Vector3.new(1, 0.5, 0.5) if Part.Anchored == true then Part.Anchored = false end end for i = 0 , math.huge do wait() ModifyPart () end

[@overseer_the_engineer]

Can't you just do Part.Anchored = false instead Part.Anchored == true then Part.Anchored = false?

[@money7511]

@@overseer_the_engineer Yes. I assume he simply wanted his code to be long.

Made rain that kills you and it disappears when it touches the baseplate. :) (You might want to make the area smaller so it's harder to dodge) Code: local n = 0 while n~= 200 do local x = math.random(1,50) local z = math.random(1,50) local y = math.random(1,50) local rain = Instance.new("Part", game.Workspace) rain.Size = Vector3.new(.5,.5,.5) rain.Position = Vector3.new(x,y,z) rain.BrickColor = BrickColor.new("Really red") rain.Material = "Glass" rain.Transparency = .5 n+=1 wait(.5) rain.Touched:Connect(function(plr) local hum = plr.Parent:FindFirstChild("Humanoid") if hum then hum.Health-=10 end if plr == game.Workspace.Baseplate then wait(1) rain:Destroy() end end) end

Not trying to be offensive in any way, but I prefer to do "while wait() do" since it works the exact same way as "while true do," except you don't have to put the "wait()" function at the start of the code. It's a lot better.
