I think I am learing how to script (Sort of the realy basics) - Fish - 05-14-2011

It was origonaly water. I have never edited a script (Well... But Person299 Admin commands on ROBLOX. LOL) So I thought If I made Water into Box, a soild box would appear instead of water, it was right, then I changed the color and Transparenty!
Looking at Qwertygiy's ROBLOX Scripts, he studyed Scripts to learn, like I am doing. So if anyone can give me basic scripts to edit, Thanks. 
P.s, this script was from Anti.
RE: I think I am learing how to script (Sort of the realy basics) - Qwertygiy - 05-14-2011
Exactly. Here's some extra code bits to help you out, and a script that uses them:
while true do: This is a loop. It will repeat until instructed to "break".
[lua]
count = 0
while true do
sleep(1)
print("Looping.")
count = count + 1
if count > 10 then
break
end
end
[/lua]
It loops 10 times, printing "Looping" each time, then stops.
stuff:getChildren(): Gets a table with all the members being the descendents of stuff.
for q = 1, #table do: Loops through each member of table 'table'. q can be any letter. I use q because it's the first letter in the keyboard.
[lua]
local itemz = game.World:getChildren()
for q = 1, #itemz do
if itemz[q]:isA("Character") then
itemz[q].Body.Velocity = Vec2D(0,200)
end end
[/lua]

DO NOT ACT LIKE WHILE TRUE DO IS A SEPERATE KIND OF LOOP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Teach them what the while loop is then tell them how while true do is a loop that repeats forever, and how "break" exits a loop

Scripting forum?

Why not just do:
[lua]
count = 0
while count <= 10 do
print("Looping.")
count = count + 1
end
[/lua]
RE: I think I am learing how to script (Sort of the realy basics) - Qwertygiy - 05-14-2011
Because that works in this case, but it only works if count <= 10 when the loop starts.
It's easier when just beginning to do something that will always work than try to figure out which way to do it (especially when editing an existing, usually long, script).

>_>
That's why you explicitly say "count = 0" in the beginning...

Woah, you guys are codemasters. I suck at scripting!
