Can’t wait for more of these to come out!! I appreciate that you describe HOW the script works instead of just writing it out like a lot of other tutorials do so your viewers can understand how to start writing their own instead of just copying what’s on the screen.
Thanks Alvin! My learning process has been to take notes on all your tutorials, play with code, then re-watch the series and take more notes, and repeat the process. This is the third or fourth round, and it's great to have some new videos covering the same old topics. You Rock! Next up for me is learning to fire remote events on server and client. I got modules and returning figured out now so hopefully it's Cake!
You are immaculately explaining this stuff. Like, I went from zero knowledge to feeling like I'm getting a grasp on this within 2 hours (I've had to rewatch things a few times because my brain hurt)
We should also note that, - Events run in a separate thread, that means errors won't stop executing the script (other than type errors). That also means execution of your script will continue after hooking this event, even if there is a loop inside it. - :Wait can be used on events. :Wait yields your script (halts the execution) until event triggers, and if picked up, passes the arguments to your variables. - Some events are not replicated and can only get listened on clients or server. Alvin covered everything a beginner needs but I just wanted to note these out so if you have any problems you can remember to check for these.
Can You please, tell Me, how to Script something that happens Every Year? What I mean is, For Example: Say it's Christmas, and I want the Map to change, to have Holiday Decorations all Around, or Maybe just Grant You a Badge on that Specific Day, every Year, but I need it to happen Automatically. How would I do that?
@@Spooksey you would literally change and add decoration to map but save a copy of the old map then if you want to when you want to change the Christmas map back. I have never made a game I don't even know how to script or anything, but this just seems logical to me.
Really cool that you have done this series. It is genuinely helpful and I thank you so much. I don't know of it is just me but sometimes the script can be a little hard to follow and I have to pause and take it apart to fully understand it.
Ahh yes that time of year :) Could we also possibly get an advanced animation video in the future too? Like custom rigs, making a spell appear out of nowhere, those kind of fundamentals?
thank you alvin for these awesome videos! i watch every single of ur videos i planned to watch ur 2019 scripting tutorials after i am done watching the 2020 1s and then try creating my own small projects
I watched many tutorials about functions, parameteres and events, and i didn’t even understand a thing! But, you cleared everything for me! 1'000 thank you for you :)
Thanks so much for these tutorials now i finally understand Functions and Events etc your teaching is so good you have just gained yourself a new subscriber
I didn't really understand how the function inside the event worked exactly. So what I did was to replay the video and test it by myself and now I understood. So small tip for everyone, if you don't understand, no problem, just rewatch and try it by yourself.
This episode is one of the best ones possible. Not only you taught us about events, but you showed us where to find the possible events and functions in a list.
This helped me so much, Im on this part now and i've been enjoying learning scripting so far. Thankyou for taking your time to make these tutorial videos bro, and sorry for my english.
To anyone having issues with the event firing on startup, this is what worked for me, you may have to try something a little different. 1, check if the part with the event is on the baseplate. 2, if it is, check to make sure the baseplate's property "CanTouch" is unchecked. if it isn't, try unchecking it. for me, the part was hitting the baseplate, causing the script to fire. if anyone is curious, to my knowledge, "CanTouch" just determines whether or not it will trigger any Touch events.
@@veskos Less "gave up" and more "on hiatus of an indeterminate time", I'd love to get back into it at some point, but, A: school, and B: Already learning Java in school, Kinda got in the way of learning Lua. If i could get back into it, I probably would, but I'm already spending 7 hours a day, 5 days a week learning things (Including stuff I'd like to learn anyways,) It's not that I don't want to do it, I'd just rather spend my free time on other things.
Alvin, I used to watch ur old tutorial. You have really evolved as a teacher! Or maybe it's just that I understand scripting. But you've deffi' evolved.
So basically i learned to script at my current level by watching his 2019 videos and reading roblox's dev forms and develop page online, and this has helped me along way trying simple projects to learn things that seem complex.
im in a good mood now because the first scripting tutorial that has made sense to me was recommended and im currently binging the heck out of it! thank you alvin!
Thank you so much! When I completed the script, I had by far many mistakes and it didn't work but when I had the uncopyblocked game, I checked the difference and I fixed it. Once I was done again, everything worked! This is the only tutorial that makes my loading work. You deserve a sub and one day, you will reach 1 million! This took me a day to make and the working script was worth it. The tutorial is remarkable! Thanks so much again and make sure somebody cares about you.
i have watched the entire 2019 beginner series and learned kinda very little but when i watched this i understood the things i didnt in the 2019 beginner series
Pls keep this series up I'm trying to make a racing game and the first video on properties actually taught me how to change the paint of my car in gui I wanna learn more about scripting Guis so maybe further in this series do a tutorial on that but this series has been helping me really thank you bro
4:58 Alvin, i believe that the event is actually connected to the function only *once* , and not every time the event is triggered(in this case, every time some player touches that part), or else there would be several connections, and the function would be called several times!
I really don't know what to say. This is the best tutorial I've ever seen. This taught me soooooo much. I'm not even exaggerating. I can't thank you enough and I don't know how you barely ever say "Subscribe for free cookies!" 24/7.
Finally, a scripting RUclipsr that doesn’t skip over 20 steps. Seriously, most people are just like, “So, um yeah just put game.Workspace.Part.Touched:Connect(OOF) and then you’re done!!” They don’t talk about writing a function first.
I remember last year when you posted scripting tutorials and I got really good at scripting after it but hope you can do some more advanced scripting tutorials teaching about BodyGyro, BodyVelocity, RunService and so on
Hey Alvin, I have been building for about 2 years in roblox now and I figured it would be time that I finally learn how to script. Your videos have helped me slowly develop some simple scripting skills. I really a appreciate it. Also it would be really cool if you went more into detail with events especially touch events. For example when a character touches a block it turns a certain color, or makes the health go down. Would also be really helpful if you could teach us how we can implement locals and script.Parent functions. I friend taught me some of this like how to change a parts transparency when a player steps on it but I still find it very confusing.
Awesome video! I have been searching quite a while for a proper tutorial on plugins and I didn't see anything that shows how to create shortcuts for plugins. Please if there is a tutorial on this send it to me!
AlvinBlox Voice is starting to get deeper and deeper and deeper idk how and why that happens but his voice was high in 2019 he starting to grow up fast

Bruh fr tho you cant look away at all
lmao so true
Lol same
You should add in your videos, examples of what you can do with everything we've learned. Would make learning this so much easier.
I did say some examples in the video such as adding leaderstats/cash values to a player when they join, but I’ll take it onboard for future ones.
@@AlvinBlox Alvin, we really need it. I do my own examples on my notebook compensate my need.

yeah that just happend lol
Keep going!
lol same and @AlvinBlox why are you awake at 6
it's morning here in the us at the time he replied but I'm going to assume he lives in the UK
@@applebeestacos4840 same here lol
Yay! New tutorial! I understand events but I'm still gonna watch (later prob) because it's entertaining to watch!
It's also good to watch even if you know because it refreshes your mind
@@HDx03 Yeah.
bet u didnt watch it
You are immaculately explaining this stuff. Like, I went from zero knowledge to feeling like I'm getting a grasp on this within 2 hours (I've had to rewatch things a few times because my brain hurt)

This episode is one of the best ones possible. Not only you taught us about events, but you showed us where to find the possible events and functions in a list.
A much better version of the hour long events video you uploaded last year. Very helpful!
Nice Job, Alvin! I learned from your older tutorials since these weren't out yet.
Yes, I waited for this. The events [long edition] from last year was long. So I'm happy is short this time
bc of you i finally stopped being so scared to try something new and im glad i came across your channel
Thanks AlvinBlox
Happy to hear that!
two more videos to go! excited. ik its not an overnight things but i think i've got some of these vids down packed.
Yesterday, I did not even know the print command, Today, I can Create events!
I don't even want to learn Roblox Scripting and yet I still watch these videos.
same bro I quit roblox but i still watch these videos i feel like i just need to do it
LESS GOOO new video, bro I just like how you're helping so many ppl out of all tutorials these actually help thx so much
One of the best if not the best Roblox Lua coding lessons on youtube.
Keep up the good work!
I been watching you for 5 years nearly, you are an absolute legend man.
the only person on roblox who makes working tutorials that dont waste time and can be understood this person should win an oscar
its 1am and i messed up but because of your previous videos i was able to debug, i got so excited i screamed
This helped me so much, Im on this part now and i've been enjoying learning scripting so far. Thankyou for taking your time to make these tutorial videos bro, and sorry for my english.
Yo thanks AlvinBlox, I love your video Ideas, they are very helpful, I'll be creating game's in no time. But I need to just get better at building.
His series is really helping me reach my goal of being a Roblox game dev

Well obviously, it's because he didn't add a wait() inside the function.
@@lazlaz59 i'm still trying to understand what you meant by that. what adding a wait inside the function has to do with i just said?
On the output, it had (23x) on the executed function, so it happened 23 times.
