44:59 "but sometimes you want your randomness to be MORE random" "to do that, you can pass in a *seed* " "so, *meth-* "

Or type "cmd" in the folder search bar to open command prompt in that spesific folder Also \v on windows woeld be crtl-k on keyboard if i remember correctly i love this corse so far❤

I got all the way to 10:50 but when i typed that in it didnt work even though it did work when i typed it into powershell. How do I fix this?

[@fennfo5039]

One question i have, what is diffrence between this version and the old one beside the Time. is there any other one? like you using a maybe newer version of lua or should i just go on with the old one if i have the time since if there is no difference that one would have more explanation on topics. As an example i can already see from the chapters that the metamethods and CO routines are not listed here although they can be explained in other ones. BTW, very great channel, you keep it updated and the content is beyond great. appreciate it.

1:49:53 hahaha I like this part, the dog named 'Jack' is eating itself now... 🤣😂. Thx for the course

[@deeboo8386]

it's hard, i do it in command prompt like lua53 and its cool but in visual studio and power shell it like all red and not working like yours. I'm doing all the things you said idk what's going wrong.

Hey Steve Great video.. im super new to all this programming... Are you familiar with FiveM? trying to edit the coding on that but mine never matches up with the tutorial i watch (doing same thing but in video the text (code) is highlighted blue but on my end its orange) would you somewhat know why?

[@namtranhoang3882]

thank you for this :3

Okay im gonna start the course from tmrw but im so confused how will i use this to make a game in Roblox. Cuz this isnt really showing any connection to how I'll make roblox game but technically roblox game does use lua so im learning this idk lol. do reply pls.. if u can pls make a video on how to make a game in Roblox or so

[@Stevesteacher]

I do have some basic Roblox tutorials on my channel - you use Lua to make everything in your Roblox game do something, Roblox itself only allows you to design the game, but to make a car or character move or to allow a gun to shoot, you will need to write logic with Lua to get it to work

[@alexandertownsend5079]

I can't read the text on the video. It is too small. Even zooming to the max amount dioesn't help because it gets blurry and pixelated.

[@Kai41k]

Hello Steve! I have a question for you: How do you use the Cyrillic alphabet in lua? Let's say I print() a string with Cyrillic, and after running the code, the console displays some characters with the wrong encoding. Can you tell me how to fix it?

[@SThatsStupid]

i couldnt even start the video cuz open with powershell wont appear

[@Stevesteacher]

Powershell sometimes takes a while to open when you have a slow computer, try using command prompt instead or giving a good ol' reboot

[@blurrr5865]

Hello steve, i have watched the previous 4 hour lua tutorial, not all of it, i finished the functions part, should i watch this tutorial or the old one, or both, what do you suggest me? (Note: I am simply trying to make a roblox game)

[@Stevesteacher]

I recommend watching the old one ;)

[@blurrr5865]

@@Stevesteacher thank you so much for your reply man!

[@therealrentensified]

Hello Sir! I have a question. What distro do you use for Linux ? I am planning to switch to Linux since I have heard a lot of good things from KZbin talking about it. I can’t really understand distros and don’t know what is the best distro for programming can you please help me? Thank you!

[@Stevesteacher]

Hello! :) I use EndeavourOS, however, I would not recommend this distro to beginners, instead I would recommend Linux Mint, POP!_OS, Fedora or Manjaro, they have great communities and support, and are easier to work with ;)

[@therealrentensified]

@@Stevesteacher thank you! I will research more about them. Are you making a tutorial for C sir in the future? Just asking bye

[@Stevesteacher]

@@therealrentensified Yes, it is on the todo list ;)

[@therealrentensified]

@@Stevesteacher great! I cant wait for it! Thank you, stay safe and dont forget to rest Sir!

[@chrisw1462]

Awesome job on the audio there.. starts off booming loud, then gets (Running Lua (VSCode)) so quiet you have to turn it up. Then blasts you out when it goes back to loud.

[@Stevesteacher]

Sorry, each section had different audio configurations to fit it for noise reduction and pop protection :( I will try to reduce audio fluctuations in future videos ;)

[@vaibhavkrkm]

Can i download this video and other tutorials from your channel using a 3rd party service? I will only use it for offline learning and not for anything else i promise because it will make my learning easier!

[@Stevesteacher]

Yes! Of course! Thank you for asking! :)

[@vaibhavkrkm]

@@Stevesteacher Thanks a lot!

[@QuinnEdens]

what about the original?

[@Stevesteacher]

This is just a shortened version, you don't have to watch it, I actually recommend to keep watching the original ;) (This one will be featured on freeCodeCamp!)

[@JoshWJoey]

@@Stevesteacher Nice! I love that channel, they teach amazing codes, I've learned Python, C++, etc from that channel. Can't believe you'll be featured there! Keep up the great work! Wish you the best :)
