Scripting Help 6/29/11

Dear Doogy700,

The following script would be the output of something, yet it doesn't work correctly, please help me.

Workspace.SpawnBox.Cancollides.SpawnLocation.Script:1: 'then' expected near '='
Script:
if game.Workspace.Message.Text="Lets start"
then script.Parent.Cancollide=false 
wait(5)
script.Parent.Cancollide=true

Dear ineedhelpwithscripting,

It doesn't work because you have a word on the wrong line, here is the correct script:

Workspace.SpawnBox.Cancollides.SpawnLocation.Script:1: 'then' expected near '='
Script:
if game.Workspace.Message.Text="Lets start" then
script.Parent.Cancollide=false 
wait(5)
script.Parent.Cancollide=true 

Why? Because = is used to set a variable

x = 5
t = "lol hai"

== is used to compare two things.

if x == 5 then
elseif t == "lol hai" then

I hope you understand.

Our RSS is on the sidebar in the category called 'Other'.

You may realize that the RSS is on another website, yes, it is, because I had to script all the HTML and I figured to just make it on another website rather than here.

Scripting Help 6/11/11

Dear Doogy700,
  When I do this:

while true do wait(15)if game.Players.NumPlayers >= 1 and script.building.Value == false and script.battling.Value == false and script.playing.Value == false then script.playing.Value = true 

In the end, it doesn't work as I planned it to, maybe because the script is wrong, or the way I did it doesn't do what I excepted it to do. Help me please.

Dear Osfa,


Instead of the way you did it, I would probably do it this way instead:

while true do wait(13)if game.Players.NumPlayers >= 1 and script.building.Count.Value == false and script.battling.Count.Value == false and script.playing.Count.Value == false then script.playing.Count.Value = true

New Admin Weapons!

New admin weapons have been created!


HotThoth's Voodoo Doll

Has exclusive powers that it allows you to use

RobloTim's RobloHunk Potion

Are you strong? Or weak? This potion makes you, not hunk, but RobloHunk!

BrightEye's Sparkling Shillelagh

It's a weapon, it's also evil-ish. It has BrightEye's powers! But not the admin kind!

JediTkacheff's Deathstar

Crafted using futuristic techniques by JediTkacheff this death star is capable of moving and blistering speeds to attack its marked target. Watch out though, as the star is also capable of conjuring a shield around its wielder to protect him from incoming projectiles and do damage to any tresspassers and boost your health.

Press "x" for conjuring the shield!

Njay's Web Blaster

Everyone knows that Njay writes web code like nobody's business, but did you know he also shoots spider webs that stop people from moving and do some serious damage?

Telamon's Foe Hammer

For when a ban hammer just doesn't hit hard enough. This admin weapon is the most expensive and favorite of all Robloxians.

Sorcus' Sword of Judgement

"Judge a man by his questions rather than by his answers" -Voltaire

Builderman's Hammer of Shimmering Light

Better to light one candle than to curse the darkness.
