  I made a plug-in that grabs a directory to a specific item in the game so you can copy-paste it for coding. It also selects it so you don’t have to go finding it. It’s especially good if it’s a reallllly deep item like in GUIs. There’s also presets so you can get to it easier.

  0:10 why use self.__Current rather than Current.__Current?? isnt the 2nd method faster? is there a reason? lmk

• 
  @summerequinoxКүн бұрын

  The access speed will be ~same once the table exists in the function level, it does because implicitly through self, so both have time efficiency of O(1) -> which more or less means it doesn't matter which one you use but self always provides greater modularity. Thanks for your question, you can use either that you prefer.

  If its a module, every time its required, it will have the same values even if changed from a script, Say, I have a script that loads the game and sets _G.Loaded to true. Sure, it can be replaced to a boolean value that is checked for updates. but how else would _G be used?

• 
  @DynoDeso2 күн бұрын

  If you're lazy

• 
  @summerequinox2 күн бұрын

  You can use a ModuleScript or a value object for the replacement and be fine. The ModuleScript return's contents can be changed. So if you return a table {Loaded = false} and require that module in a different script, you can still set module.Loaded = true and that information is available to every script within that context. The other question, how else would _G be used, is a good one. The truth of the matter is in vanilla Lua and even Luau off of Roblox I have no problem with it, it's just the fact that using it on Roblox causes all of the things listed in this video. So there is no "other" use for it on Roblox, even though it's accessible, it shouldn't be used. ModuleScripts and value objects will always do better. :) Hopefully this helps

• 
  @madnessmyth2 күн бұрын

  @@summerequinox No it does not save. Writing {Loaded = false} as a variable or returning that, will make a new table address. Try printing it and pressing F9, every time you require it, it will have a new address, meaning its not the same table. _G can be used to keep the same address.

• 
  @summerequinox2 күн бұрын

  @@madnessmyth It does save changes regardless of any of this. ModuleScripts run one time per script context environment which is all over the creator hub documentation as well. Once its run once, it just returns itself instead of running again, which is why they can be used how they are in large codebase structures. To continue though, it does not have a different address (I tested this right now), and if it does it's under-hood array growth/shrinking methods happening in C++ that doesn't matter to you as a Luau scripter. Memory addresses don't matter to you as a Roblox scripter, low level languages like c, c++ use all kinds of tricky implementations to create consistency and niceties for their data structures (e.g the Lua table).

•

  The only thing in relation to memory that matters in general Luau programming is reference keeping, which because of how pointers work, even if your underlying memory is changed you still access the same object.

  Haven't watched the full video yet, but how else would you set global variables for server scripts? I know you can use shared, but you can only use them for modules

• 
  @summerequinox2 күн бұрын

  So it basically turns from a coding problem into a game architecture problem. Things like _G data, setfenv, etc… disable highly important Luau optimizations - so in a game where performance was prioritized everything would be passed around via ModuleScripts. Data needed by multiple scripts should be returned by a ModuleScript in the server environment, it could be as simple as a settings ModuleScript that fires off events for its changes other scripts can hook into. So the outright answer would be: there is no other way to, but the point is that there doesn’t need to be, because everything _G does, ModuleScripts do better. -> Minus the extenuating circumstance of backwards compatibility mentioned in video

  For global variables use like a value object and parent it to replicated storage so both the client and the server can access it, then whenever you need to change you can just use the = method, and whenever you need to get the variable just do [value].Value (a value object is different from the value object's value, kind of weird I know. You could also use modulescripts but I find this to be the simpler and neat way of doing things.

  I know this is completely unrelated to the video, but seeing you probably do your homework, you seem like the type of person to give me relevant answers: How do you handle lag compensation, specifically character replication? I've seen resources like Chickynoid but resources like these lack an actual documentation. I'm creating a gun system, and I just hate the concept of the 'favor-the-shooter' hit registration, I would much rather enjoy casting projectiles via the shooter's client AND have true hit registeration (The hit player wouldn't be confused how someone shot him when he just took cover behind a wall). A response would be AWESOME. Besides that, I find your videos pretty unique compared to other channels, keep it up !!

• 
  @summerequinox4 күн бұрын

  Hey man! I'm seeing this from work so sorry if I provide a shorter reply here. You certainly can't 'favor-the-shooter' safely without a beautiful anti-cheat in place that's nearly (/literally) impossible on Roblox, that anti-cheat would want OS-level guard something like Riot Vanguard. I will say while I understand the things involved I'm certainly no expert. Even the best shooters hold some amount of inaccuracy in hits for this reason alone. It will never be safe to put absolute trust to the client. Your best bet is to find a "middle-ground". Some things are going to be out of your control on Roblox as well, like Server's tick-rate. There's a concept called server authoritative game architecture that may interested you specifically in regard to real time games, like those on Roblox. SAA (as an acronym to the above) uses little tricks to maintain game integrity while still keeping the smooth feeling. Predictions etc... it's a big task to take on but I know for sure certain Roblox games use it (namely Phantom Forces) as one of the developers has a clip talking about it. You're generally fighting a losing/uphill battle on Roblox to get offensive against lag - for the most part you can be defensive by giving everything involved as much CPU/RAM/resource capacity availability as possible. Especially since you don't actually own the cloud resources where your game is played, and have practically no control over it. Make sure you're using StreamingEnabled and using minimalism with server resources. Consider some larger games with next-to-no cheating problems, the games that come to mind likely have a few things: quick server tick rates, server authoritation with client-sided predictions, and more. Something like Rocket League is a great example of a game that does this. It's generally done to combat cheaters, but the smoothness is a bit of a byproduct. Here's some links, hope this helps you in your journey in some way. Again, definitely not an expert, just some things to consider: medium.com/mighty-bear-games/what-are-server-authoritative-realtime-games-e2463db534d1 timetocode.com/nengi/authoritative-server I appreciate your comment!
