It seems as though you've taken a break from YouTube or something, I'm not sure. I just found you today, but you are one of the best if not the best Roblox script tutorial makers for sure. You explain everything better than any teacher, and almost put things in storylines that make it fun and exciting in a way. Like your exploiting video where Billy goes on a rampage and you teach us how to tame him.

I really would love to see you make a video about how to use Studio Explorer, IE, when to use Serverstorage, Serverscript Service, where to put things, where to never put things. As someone who is learning Roblox studio the biggest hurdle for me has been knowing when to use certain parts of the explorer, I found a video explaining it to some extent by another youtuber but he said some things like "Never use server storage, its useless" and a few other things that weren't entirely accurate.

Basically, exploiters can ruin a lot of people's experiences, or flat out break games. I know they're supposedly rare and I should just focus on getting my game up and going but.. bleh. I just figure it would be easier to build it from the ground up knowing how to defeat the exploiters, rather than learning from losing players and getting dislikes because of them..

That's why I think you're such a huge value to the community, Nobody wants to play with exploiters, nobody wants exploiters to ruin the experience for their players, players have less fun, devs lose players, it's only a win for exploiters..

Thank you so much man! This will really help me organize scripts!

[wallop]

These could defo be useful to beginners. Great job man!

[feodorborisevich]

Perfect introduction to module scripts. Many thanks

[poluefemus]

thanks man, best explanation i’ve seen

[therealsuper]

great tutorial!
one thing i noticed with the SpawnFruit() function, is that you put the function in the same table as the fruits.
SpawnFruit("SpawnFruit") will error, because further in the function it mentions fruit[name].Color (Color is not a member of a function)

Best tutorial on Roblox Studio I have ever seen, thanks!
