Tools - Roblox Advanced Scripting #3 — Transcript

Full transcript

1. 0:00hey thanks for stopping by in this episode of  my Roblox Advanced scripting tutorial series
2. 0:04I'm going to be talking about tools now I think  you pretty much know what tools are almost every
3. 0:09single Roblox game you can think of has Tools  in some sort of way they're basically items for
4. 0:15players to be able to equip from their backpack  or their inventory and use them so things like
5. 0:22weapons or tools or any other sorts something  that's equipable that players can use to further
6. 0:30progress through the game that they're playing  and that's what we're about to be creating in
7. 0:33this episode but before we do there's going to be  some things we need to understand first all right
8. 0:37let's think about this for a minute so I just hit  play test here in Roblox studio and there's going
9. 0:42to be a few things I want you to know about before  we start creating tools so on the right side if
10. 0:46we open up Explorer we can see everything that's  contained inside of the Explorer but one thing in
11. 0:51particular is our own character because obviously  when when the player joins the game there's going
12. 0:57to be a clone of the player's character from the  website and be put into the workspace because you
13. 1:03know that's how we can um actually see ourselves  inside of the game if we open this up we can
14. 1:08actually see that there's a whole bunch of stuff  that make up our character we have shirts pants
15. 1:15uh we have uh a bunch of accessories uh I can  actually take some of these accessories off like
16. 1:20my glasses for instance I just like deleted that  now you can see my glasses are gone so everything
17. 1:25here basically makes up uh my character inside the  workspace we also have certain body parts we have
18. 1:31scripts and a bunch of other stuff that makes up  our player character inside of the game but not
19. 1:36only that there's another thing if we go if we uh  scroll down a little bit um we can actually see
20. 1:42that there's a folder called players uh if we  open up players we can actually see that there
21. 1:48is a player instance that basically has the same  name as the as my character up here brawl battle
22. 1:56uh this is the character inside of the workspace  but but this is the player the player instance and
23. 2:03if we open this up we can see that there's four  things here there's backpack starter gear player
24. 2:08GUI and player scripts we're mostly going to be  focused on these two here uh for this episode
25. 2:14backpack and starter gear so in essence there's  two things that happens when a player joins the
26. 2:19game one is that their character gets copied and  put into the workspace whenever our player joins
27. 2:26the game the second thing is that a player instant  is created and put inside of the players uh folder
28. 2:33inside of the game with a bunch of other stuff  so this is something I wanted you to be aware of
29. 2:37when we start creating tools all right now that we  understand that let's create a tool but you might
30. 2:41ask where do we create this tool do we create  it in workspace do we create in players no we
31. 2:47actually created inside of a another folder inside  of the game called starter pack and essentially
32. 2:53what starter pack is is that this is the default  backpack of ideally filled with tools uh where
33. 3:01when the player joins the game uh and it doesn't  matter which player it is because all players will
34. 3:05share the same starter pack and so any tools  that are put inside of the starter pack will
35. 3:10be put inside of the player's backpack in the game  no matter what whether they join the game for the
36. 3:15first time or whether they reset their character  these tools that are in the starter pack will be
37. 3:20copied over to the player's backpack and this is  how it's going to be for the entirety of the game
38. 3:25so we're going to create a tool by clicking on  the plus sign next to starter pack and you can
39. 3:29see that there is a tool right here so let's click  that and now we've created our first tool instance
40. 3:37placed inside of the starter pack so if we look at  our tool and uh we like hit test and hit Play Now
41. 3:42That We're in the game we can see that down here  the tool is shown if we click on it uh nothing
42. 3:48exactly happens because we didn't make the tool do  anything yet it's just an empty tool instance but
43. 3:53if we go on the right side with our player and  um look into our backpack we can actually see
44. 3:59that our tool is displayed inside of here as uh  as expected because everything that's inside of
45. 4:06the starter pack from Roblox studio uh like this  tool it gets copied over to every single player's
46. 4:12backpack and that's basically where the tool lies  but now let's look at some properties for the
47. 4:18tools the first thing we'll look at is tool tip  and this is essentially a text that displays uh
48. 4:23on top of the um on top of the tool whenever you  hover over the item uh giving you like a little
49. 4:29bit of information about it I will show you what I  mean but for right now let's just select this and
50. 4:34let's put in something let's give it a description  by saying this is a tool so now that we have that
51. 4:41in there I'll show you what it looks like inside  of the game after a little bit but let's look into
52. 4:44another property called texture ID so if you  notice when we were playing the game um our
53. 4:49tool was displayed at the bottom of the screen  down here uh but all it showed was the text tool
54. 4:55which was the name of the tool um but what if we  wanted to show an image instead of the name of
55. 5:00the tool this is where texture ID comes in now you  might ask how do we actually get a texture ID and
56. 5:06where do we get images from so that is going to be  through the toolbox uh which can be accessed from
57. 5:13up here when you click View and then there should  be a toolbox right over here if we click that we
58. 5:19can actually see that we have a huge Marketplace  catalog filled with user generated content that's
59. 5:26been uploaded to the Roblox website in which you  can actually take some of these and put it inside
60. 5:31of your game now I would generally advise not  using the toolbox because um a lot of these things
61. 5:37have backd door scripts that can like you know  hack your game or modify the game to something
62. 5:42that you don't want all kinds of security issues  which is why I would generally advise not to use
63. 5:47the toolbox but for the sake of this tutorial we  are going to use it okay but now in order to get
64. 5:51our texture ID we need an ID from an image and to  get an image we click on this drop down here and
65. 5:58we click on images so this gives us a whole  bunch of images to work with uh that's been
66. 6:04uploaded to by the Roblox community so if we just  take one of these um let's take this let's take
67. 6:11this super super happy face for instance we're  going to rightclick it and then we're going to
68. 6:17click on copy asset ID and then on the right side  on our texture ID let's select this let's right
69. 6:25click and then we'll say paste and then we'll hit  enter so essentially we got the ID of the image
70. 6:30and we've now put it onto here in the texture ID  so we should be able to see in our game if we go
71. 6:34to test and we go to play we should see these two  changes with the tool tip and also the texture ID
72. 6:40so the first thing you notice if we join in is  that uh our tool now doesn't display uh the name
73. 6:47of the tool anymore but instead our image because  we gave the texture ID an ID of the image if we
74. 6:53hover over it we can actually see that it displays  a text on top of it saying this is a tool this was
75. 7:00our tool tip that we provided uh for the tools  so those are two pretty cool things if we equip
76. 7:05and unequip it nothing still happens because we  didn't you know actually make it do anything yet
77. 7:09now let's create a handle so that we can actually  show that the player is holding something whenever
78. 7:14they equip the tool so if we go to our model tab  hit parts so that we create a new park part inside
79. 7:20of the workspace uh there's going to be two very  important things we need to do the first thing is
80. 7:25if we click on the part and then go down here  into the properties make sure that anchored is
81. 7:30set to false so that it's turned off um the reason  for this is because we don't want the part to be
82. 7:37stuck in place whenever uh the game is running we  want it to be affected by gravity um and then the
83. 7:43second thing we have to do is rename this part  to a very specific name we're going to uh click
84. 7:49on this and then we're going to name it handle  with a capital H and now what we'll do is we'll
85. 7:55take this part we will drag it into our tool here  here inside of our starter pack and basically what
86. 8:01we're doing is we're telling Roblox that this is  now a part that we want to display on the player's
87. 8:09hand whenever the tool is equipped let's equip our  tool so down here let's uh click on it we should
88. 8:14see that we now have the part which we called  handle uh that was set as a child to the tool
89. 8:20is now equipped for us uh and and so basically our  hand is stuck out um whenever our tools equipped
90. 8:27and we see the part like very clearly we unequip  it and then the part is gone if we equip it again
91. 8:32we can see it if we unequip it it's gone now let's  actually see what happens in the Explorer whenever
92. 8:37we equip and unequip the tool so I'm going to uh  open up the workspace and Players let's open up
93. 8:43our player uh and our backpack as well and let's  open up our character remember when I said that
94. 8:49our character in The workspace makes up what we  actually see in the workspace we can see that
95. 8:55when when we don't have the tool equipped it's  in inside of our player's backpack here but if we
96. 9:02equip it we can actually see that the tool moved  from our backpack into our own character the tool
97. 9:09is now part of our character if we unequip it we  can actually see that the tool moved back into
98. 9:15her backpack so that's a really interesting thing  to note about here's two more properties to know
99. 9:20about if we scroll down a little bit we can see  that there's a scale property and a can be dropped
100. 9:25property the scale property basically just sets  the side of the tool itself um specifically the
101. 9:32handle um if we just change this to let's say uh  1.5 then it increases the scale of the Tool uh we
102. 9:41can change it to two we can even make it smaller  than the default by saying 0.5 so that's like a
103. 9:46little neat thing to know about another property  is can be dropped and this is basically a check
104. 9:51to see whether the player can actually get rid  of this item from their backpack and uh on PC or
105. 9:59uh desktop or computer or whatever um the key  to actually dropping an item is the backspace
106. 10:06button so if we have it equipped and uh we press  backspace we can actually see that the part is
107. 10:12now located inside of the workspace and is not  a child to my character anymore but if I pick
108. 10:19it back up it goes back into my character now  if I quickly go to the tool and uncheck can be
109. 10:26dropped and make sure we're not selecting tool  inside the um workspace inside of the workspace
110. 10:32so like down here uh if we try pressing backspace  now it does not work uh and that's because we set
111. 10:39can be dropped to false these are two additional  properties that I'm just going to throw out there
112. 10:44now let's actually script our tool so on our tool  we're going to uh click on the plus sign and then
113. 10:49we're going to create a script now remember it's  important to note the difference between script
114. 10:54and local scripts uh I made a video talking  about local scripts uh but for the purposes
115. 10:58of this tutorial we're going to use a script  so that it'll be replicated to all players I
116. 11:04generally would not advise doing this unless  uh there is clear communication between the
117. 11:08server and the client but we're not going to go  over that in this episode so we've just created
118. 11:13a script inside of a tool let's delete this code  here and uh let's first make reference to the tool
119. 11:19so we're going to say local tool equals script.  parent and so in this episode I'm going to be
120. 11:25going over four events that I think are going  to be pretty useful ful for tools uh the first
121. 11:30one is going to be equipped so we'll say tool.  equipped and uh we're going to say colon connect
122. 11:39function we're going to hit enter uh and first  thing we'll do is we'll make a print statement
123. 11:44we'll say print uh this tool has been equipped so  we've just created our first event and this will
124. 11:54basically run every time the player equips the  tool so now let's do the same thing but this time
125. 11:59time we'll unequip it so we'll drop two lines  down here and then we'll say tool. unequipped
126. 12:06connect function we're basically just going to  do the exact same thing here print this tool has
127. 12:13been unequipped now let's go to the game hit test  hit play you know the usual so make sure you have
128. 12:20your output down here uh so that we can actually  see the change happening uh when we equip the tool
129. 12:26we can see that the output has printed this tool  has been equipped and if we unequip it we can see
130. 12:31that this tool has been unequipped and so we can  just continuously do this every time we equip and
131. 12:35unequip the tool so we basically did exactly what  we wanted it to do all right but now there's two
132. 12:39more events that we'll be going over and that's  going to be activated and unactivated so activated
133. 12:46is basically an event that triggers whenever the  player clicks on the left Mouse button of their
134. 12:52Mouse if they're playing on PC uh but I believe  in other devices it's uh tapping the screen if on
135. 12:59mobile and I think it's right trigger on Xbox  if I'm not mistaken so basically whenever you
136. 13:04interact with the tool after equipping it so  we'll say tool. activated connect function and
137. 13:15then do the same thing here with the syntax we  will say print uh tool has been activated and
138. 13:22so we will also do the same thing down here  when it becomes deactivated so deactivating
139. 13:27is basically when you let go of the activation uh  button whichever one it was whether that was the
140. 13:33left Mouse button right Trigger or tapping on the  screen uh so we'll say tool. deactivated connect
141. 13:41function and then we will say print tool has been  deactivated so now we have our four events here
142. 13:53let's go into the game and then test it so first  thing we're going to do is equip it we'll see that
143. 13:58the Tool's been equipped now let's try activating  it so I'm on PC so the button to activate it is
144. 14:04going to be the left Mouse button so if I hold uh  my left Mouse button we can see that it printed
145. 14:11out saying the tool has been activated but if  I let go of my mouse then it will activate the
146. 14:16deactivation tool has been deactivated if I just  click we can see that it very quickly activated
147. 14:22and deactivated because activating happens  whenever you actually press down on the key
148. 14:27but then deactivating happens when you let go  there's actually two more properties here in
149. 14:31the behavior category called manual activation  only and requires handle so requires handle is
150. 14:38basically like okay we have a we have a tool  but we don't need it to have a handle uh when
151. 14:44we want to use this tool so uh if we right click  our tool and then duplicate it uh and we open up
152. 14:52this one let's also rename this to Tool two so  that we don't get confused with it let's actually
153. 14:57delete this handle um so now we have a tool that  doesn't have a handle meaning when our player
154. 15:03equips this tool nothing will show um as like a  physical object when the player equips a tool uh
155. 15:09but we can still activate it and uh you know run  the script without having an actual handle so we
156. 15:16can actually disable this and if we go into the  game we should still be able to activate it so
157. 15:21I believe it's going to be our second Tool uh as  you can see uh our player does not hold out his
158. 15:27hand to something because we deleted the handle  but we can still see that the script is still
159. 15:33working just fine without the handle so that's  like one useful thing to know about for that
160. 15:38and then the other property is manual activation  only so if we activate this like if we said it's
161. 15:43true that means that whenever we equip the tool  we cannot activate it automatically when we um
162. 15:51when our player decides to do it by like uh left  Mouse clicking or right triggering or uh tapping
163. 15:57on the screen we can only have activation happen  through script so I'll show you an example of how
164. 16:03this would actually work so if we go to our tool  2 and then click on the script let's delete this
165. 16:08one so that's it's a little easier to read let's  make it so that as soon as we equip the tool let's
166. 16:14activate the activated event here so we're going  to drop a line here from equipped and we're going
167. 16:20to say tool and since this is a function we're  going to say colon activate so this basically
168. 16:28artificially simulates um what would happen if the  player clicks um and activates the tool because
169. 16:36we don't want it to happen automatically this is  going to happen manually so as soon as we equip
170. 16:40the tool it's going to automatically activate it  without the player actually doing it because now
171. 16:44the player cannot activate it on its on their own  so if we equip our second tool we can see that the
172. 16:50Tool's been equipped and uh the activated event  has also been triggered because as soon as we
173. 16:57equipped our tool it set off the activated event  on its own and if I try to activate the tool it's
174. 17:04not going to work instead all it's going to do  is trigger the deactivated one because because
175. 17:09that property inside of our tool was specifically  designed for Activation not deactivation there's
176. 17:15actually one final thing I forgot to mention  and that is starter gear essentially starter
177. 17:20gear is basically the starter pack but if it  was specific to an individual player so some
178. 17:27players could spawn in every time they reset  their character with a certain set of tools
179. 17:33uh that is only specific to that player or maybe  if someone is in a specific team they will spawn
180. 17:39into the game with specific tools that other teams  or other players cannot start out with and let me
181. 17:46show you how this is done really quickly so if  I uh select my tool on the starter pack and I
182. 17:52rightclick and duplicate it let's call this tool  two and I'm actually going to get rid of the text
183. 17:58extra ID so that we can see the difference between  tool one and Tool two I'm going to drag this into
184. 18:03replicated storage and now let's play the game so  now I'm in the game as you can see uh I've opened
185. 18:09up my player so that starter gear is over here  and if I open up replicated storage my tool should
186. 18:14be here as well here's something that's really  important to know about though uh inside of the
187. 18:19test ribbon I'm going to click on the current uh  window that we're in I'm going to click it so that
188. 18:24we can go to the server instead if I open up the  players uh my player with its starter gear and I
189. 18:30go to replicated storage with tool 2 I'm going  to drag this into starter gear so now for the
190. 18:37first time I join into the game with my one and  only tool right here that's in my uh backpack but
191. 18:43if I actually reset my character then something  really interesting will happen so once I reset
192. 18:51my character I'm now going to have two tools down  here as a starter rather than one because tool two
193. 18:58was very specifically put inside of my player's  starter gear so now whenever I reset my character
194. 19:06I'm not only going to start off with tool one but  also tool two and uh if I go back into the server
195. 19:12and quickly delete starter gear I go back into my  own client and I reset my character then I should
196. 19:18no longer be able to spawn in with my second tool  alongside my first one so that is another very
197. 19:23interesting thing to know about it's very useful  if you want specific players to have specific
198. 19:27tools or people in specific teams to have specific  tools and of course if you want to do this through
199. 19:33script then all you have to do is just set the  parent of the tool not only to their backpack
200. 19:38but also to their starter gear so the next time  the player resets their character they're going
201. 19:43to have their new tool okay now let's put it all  together and in this last section of the video
202. 19:48I'm actually going to make this a challenge that  you can try if you want or you can follow what
203. 19:52I do there's going to be a few requirements the  five requirements that I have for you are first
204. 19:58first play a sound when the Tool is equipped  and if you don't know how to play a sound then
205. 20:03that's okay the step doesn't really matter all too  much the next requirement is to create a Boolean
206. 20:08to check if the player is holding down activation  and change it appropriately the third requirement
207. 20:13is use tool scale two with an argument of whatever  numbers in there to upscale and downscale the tool
208. 20:21when clicking so this is a special function for  tools that allows you to upscale and downscale a
209. 20:27tool and I want you to use that whenever a player  clicks and lets go next I want you to use a while
210. 20:34loop to constantly change the handle's color  until the player lets go and then finally the last
211. 20:40requirement is I want you to create player stats  with an INT value called clicks that increments
212. 20:47every time the player clicks with the tool all  right so these are your challenges you can pause
213. 20:52the video to try this out on your own first and  then come back here but we're still going to go
214. 20:56through this together okay so on the right side  I'm actually going to delete the second tool so
215. 21:00that it's not confusing whenever we actually  test the game so now we only have one tool and
216. 21:05the first thing I'm going to do is make sure that  every player has player stats because that's the
217. 21:11fifth requirement for this so on our server script  service we're going to hit the plus sign and then
218. 21:16we're going to insert a new script we're going  to call the script player added okay we'll delete
219. 21:23this and then we will do a player added event  by saying game name. players. player added and
220. 21:31then colon connect function and in these arguments  we're going to pass in a player so now we're going
221. 21:39to create a folder called leader stats we're going  to say local leader stats equals instance. new
222. 21:46because we're creating uh a new folder uh we're  going to set the leader stats as parent to the
223. 21:53player and then we're going to give it the name  Leaders sets. name equals and make sure this is
224. 21:59in lower case leader stats and now we're going to  add our clicks value so we're going to say local
225. 22:06clicks equals instance. new and this is going to  be an INT value so we're going to say int value uh
226. 22:13and the parent for clicks is going to be inside  of the leader stats and the clicks uh in values
227. 22:22name will be simply clicks so now whenever we  play the game we should be able to have a leader
228. 22:28stats folder with the value Clicks in there we're  going to be using this to record how many clicks
229. 22:33the player clicks on the tool okay so now that  that's done let's open up our tools uh script and
230. 22:41the first thing we're going to do is play a sound  whenever the tool is equipped for the first time
231. 22:46so if we go back to our toolbox uh we are inside  of the images section but if we click this drop
232. 22:52down we can actually see that there's a section  for audio as well if we click click on that uh
233. 22:59Roblox has provided us uh a huge library of sound  effects that we can put into our game so much like
234. 23:05uh the images we can insert this audio and then  we can play it directly inside of our game okay
235. 23:11let's actually see if this uh audio sounds good  to us okay I think that's pretty good uh so we're
236. 23:17going to take the sound effect into our game by  first selecting our tool and we're going to click
237. 23:24the insert uh button this should have brought  in uh the audio as a sound instance inside of
238. 23:32our tool so we're actually going to rename this  to Simply static so that it'll just be easier
239. 23:36for us to use in our script and we're going to  first make reference to our handle inside of our
240. 23:41script by saying local handle equals tool. handle  and then we will make reference to our new sound
241. 23:49that we added in so we'll say local static equals  tool. static so now down here uh under our print
242. 23:58statement for equipped we're going to play that  sound by saying static and say colon play with the
243. 24:06open and close parenthesis so this is a function  used by uh roblox's uh sound instances to be able
244. 24:12to actually play the sound that's playing um so  that you know when we equip the tool it should
245. 24:19play the sound which is what we wanted to do uh  we will test this out uh after we've finished
246. 24:24implementing everything so the next thing was to  create a Boolean to check if the player is holding
247. 24:29down activation and change it appropriately so up  here we're actually going to create the variable
248. 24:36um saying local is holding this is going to be  the variable we're going to use to check whether
249. 24:41the player is holding um the the tool or not and  by default we're going to say false and now what
250. 24:48we're going to do is when the tools activated we  will set the value of is holding to true and you
251. 24:58know when when the player lets go we're going  to set the is holding to uh back to false again
252. 25:03so down here we'll say is holding equals true  and then once the player lets go we're going to
253. 25:08set is holding back to false our third requirement  says to use tool colon scale 2 to upscale and down
254. 25:17scale the tool when clicking so that's another  thing we're going to do we're going to drop a
255. 25:21line here in activation and we're going to change  the scale of the tool by saying tool colon scale
256. 25:29two and then in these parentheses we're going to  give it a number so by default the number is one
257. 25:34but we'll say two when it's activated and so down  here we're going to say tool scale 2 back to one
258. 25:42once uh we once we let go of the actual thing  so that's pretty cool and our last requirement
259. 25:48is to use a while loop to constantly change the  handles color randomly until the player lets go
260. 25:55so how we're going to do that is after we scale  The Tool uh we're going to we're going to make
261. 26:02a while loop we're going to say while and we  want this to happen only when um is holding
262. 26:10is set to tr because as soon as we let go that's  when is holding is going to be set back to false
263. 26:15so we're only going to have this Loop occur when  the player is currently holding the tool so we'll
264. 26:21say while is holding so like while is holding is  set to true then we will do whatever is inside of
265. 26:29our while loop and what we will do is change the  handle's color to a random color uh so we're going
266. 26:35to say handle. color we're not going to use brick  color we're going to use regular color equals and
267. 26:42if you remember how to set a color property um  there's three ways of doing it but the the most
268. 26:47familiar method that I know is using color 3. from  RGB uh and then we want this to be a random color
269. 26:56keep in mind we're not just picking any color but  it's going to be random every single time so we're
270. 27:00going to have to use math.random statements for  each of the red green and blue values so we will
271. 27:06say math.random and then in these parentheses we  will go from 0 to 255 and then we're going to do
272. 27:12the same thing for green in blue as well so we're  going to say math.random 0255 and then math.random
273. 27:190255 yet again so it's going to pick a random  color every single time and one important thing
274. 27:26to remember is to add in a um a weight statement  here otherwise it's going to continuously uh run
275. 27:34this line of code and it's going to crash uh  Roblox studi so we have to say task. weight
276. 27:40and then uh we can have this weight statement be  something pretty small like 0.2 or something we
277. 27:45can also create like a static variable up here by  saying local Weight time equals um 0.2 and then we
278. 27:53could just throw in the weight time inside of here  you don't have to do this but um it does make the
279. 27:58code look nicer when you do do that and now the  last thing we need to do is increment the players
280. 28:05clicks by one whenever the player actually does  click now here's a problem we're using a script
281. 28:11and we cannot access the current players leader  stats because this script does not specify like
282. 28:18your player specifically so there is a work around  for that using remote events but I haven't gotten
283. 28:23to that yet so I don't expect you to know that  for right now so we're just going to hardcode um
284. 28:29this statement just for the sake of this tutorial  uh and what I mean by hardcode is we're going to
285. 28:34get um our literal player that's inside of the  game so this will not work in a regular Roblox
286. 28:41game so I'm just going to put that out there  uh but essentially what we're going to do is
287. 28:44we're going to say game. players and we're going  to try to find our uh our player's name because
288. 28:53for each player it's going to be different so  we're going to say colon find First first child
289. 28:58and then inside of here we're going to put in  the name of the player now for me uh it's brawl
290. 29:04battle but for you it's probably a different um  profile name so I would suggest changing this to
291. 29:09yours and then we're going to say do leer stats.  clicks and then uh remember clicks is an INT value
292. 29:18but we but we want to change the value property of  that int value so we're going to say dot value and
293. 29:26we're going to increment by one by saying plus  equals 1 so this is how you do it and I think
294. 29:33uh this is basically our entire script so let's  go into the game hit test and hit play so that
295. 29:38we can see um our new tool that we just created  for the first time all right so I'm in the game
296. 29:44if we equip the tool um we can actually see that  our tool is pretty normal but if we hold down our
297. 29:50button we can actually see that uh the scale of  the Tool uh changed and also the color is of the
298. 30:00handle is randomly being picked every single time  uh the loop is iterating every 0.2 seconds if we
299. 30:07let go then the part goes back to um scale size  one and we get a click as well because the the
300. 30:15loop was finished so that the script could like  increment The Click for us so if we do it again
301. 30:21um it's just going to do the same thing it'll keep  picking a random color for this part and uh keep
302. 30:25the scale of the part to two but then as soon as  we let go it goes back to normal and our clicks uh
303. 30:32increment so we could just keep doing this for as  a many times as we want it's like kind of stupid
304. 30:37but I mean it it's still pretty cool to do so  that was basically your challenge for this uh
305. 30:42for this video if uh you were able to do it then  congratulations so that's the basics of tools I've
306. 30:47gone over the general aspects of tools but tools  are definitely going to be something you will use
307. 30:52as a Roblox game developer for your games almost  any Roblox game you can think of will have tools
308. 30:56in some sort of way and there's so many different  ways of implementing tools inside of your Roblox
309. 31:01game this is just one of the more basic rundowns  of actually creating tools and using them inside
310. 31:06of your Roblox game I hope you uh learned  something new from this episode and if you
311. 31:11have you can leave a comment telling me um like if  you find my scripting tutorials to be helpful uh
312. 31:16and also leaving a like would be very appreciative  too but that's pretty much going to be it for this
313. 31:20episode join my Discord link is in the description  and I will see you in the next episode take care
