Making scripts: How and where to get started. - stitch - 12-19-2020
1. Tools
An executor, this is used to execute your scripts into Roblox. I highly recommend getting Synapse X (there are no such things as Synapse X cracks, so don't get fooled by that!).
A remote spy, I'll be using FrostHook.
An explorer, if you have SynX, you should have dark dex in the script hub.
2. Basics
2.1 Printing.
Lets start with testing your exploit, go into a game, attach your exploit (usually done by pressing a button which says something like attach or inject)
Now when that's done, try executing this:
Now press F9 on your keyboard to open the developer console, you should see white text saying "Hello!". If it didn't, make sure everything is properly set-up.
Printing can be used to indicate something has happened, for example if your autofarm killed it a target, it could print that the target has been killed (more on if-statements later)
2.2Â Variables.
Variables are basically things that make your life easier, for example:
Hello is written like "Hello", because it has to be a string (a string is basically text)
Variables can also be paths:
this will print the color of your head
If you would want to print a number, for example:
You would have to use tostring() to make it a string.
2.3 Tables.
Tables are multiple things in one variable, for example a number and a string:
To get information out of a table, we have to use Table[], for example:
This prints the 1st thing in the table, indicated by Table[1], which is "Hello".
Click here for more information on tables.
2.4Â For Loops.
A for loop is used to loop something a set amount of times, for example:
this is the most basic of for loops, it will print i (the amount of times the loop has currently looped) 5 times, i can be named anything.
A for loop can also be used to print the contents of a table, which is done like so:
v is the object the loop is currently at, so if i = 2, v should be "String2"
A path in roblox can also be made into a table, which means this can be used in a for loop:

I did a lot here, but don't worry ill explain it all.
GetChildren() gets all the things in an object, so if we want to get all the children on game.Workspace.Enemies, we use GetChildren(). There's also GetDescendants(), which get all the children, and the children of that etc
Name is a property of the object (aka v in this case)
You can also see a lot of dots, which is used to make multiple strings into one string. so we could do
and it would print "Hello World!", make sure to add a space if you don't want it to be one word.
2.5 While Loop.
wait() is a cooldown in seconds you can add anywhere in your script
you can do also something like this:
it will keep looping until variable is false.
2.6Â RenderStepped.
This loop depends on your FPS (frames per second), so if you were to have 60 FPS, it would loop 60 times a second
For more information about RenderStepped click here
2.7 if, elseif and else.
If statements are useful for multiple things, like checking if something exists, checking if a certain condition is met and a lot more
We used a for loop to get all things in Enemies, then use if v:IsA("Part") then which translated to english means: if v is a part then it should continue.
if you want to check something like the name of an object:
You can see I used and, which can be used to make sure multiple conditions are met to continue
Make sure to use 2 ='sÂ
If you wanna check for multiple things, you can use elseif and else:
Click here for more information about if statements.
2.8Â Remotes
This was explained in depth by Froggo on v3rm, so I'll leave it up to him.
PART 1
PART 2
PART 3
2.9. Functions
functions are really easy to learn and can optimize your script a lot.Â
make a new function by typing function then the function name with () at the end
the script above should print "Hi!" because the argument used for the function (test) is "Hi!", and it prints the argument.
click here for more information about functions.
3. GUI's.
If you have a lot of scripts for a game, you obviously want a gui so it can be easy to use.
Start by opening up a new baseplate in roblox studio
Then create a ScreenGui in StarterGui.
![[Image: 84a2b64efa7d8172568e5ebf758d2ec3.png]](https://i.gyazo.com/84a2b64efa7d8172568e5ebf758d2ec3.png)
In the ScreenGui (I recommend naming it something else) add a Frame, which will be our main part of the gui.
![[Image: 6aa4f61c43a08cd7562bb3f5f340a4fd.png]](https://i.gyazo.com/6aa4f61c43a08cd7562bb3f5f340a4fd.png)
You can change the frame as much as you like (size, color etc)
I also recommend changing the frame's name to something like Main
Then create a TextButton in the Frame, customize that to your likings as well.
![[Image: 3b774fe39d42b5f1fb056afbfcdb27c1.png]](https://i.gyazo.com/3b774fe39d42b5f1fb056afbfcdb27c1.png)
Thats it for my simple gui, were now gonna convert it to script, to do that, install this plugin. Then do the following
![[Image: 9ae3fe4f7d81c05b31925a22e19696a1.gif]](https://i.gyazo.com/9ae3fe4f7d81c05b31925a22e19696a1.gif)
Make sure you have the ScreenGui selected when clicking convert.
Now we have a big script which should be called gui2lua#1
Open the script and go to the bottom, were gonna bind a function to our button now.
toggle is our variable for checking if its on or off,Â
make sure that you are using the correct TextButton, you can see your buttons at the top of the gui2lua script (under --instances)
toggle = not toggle means toggle is gonna be the opposite of what it was, in this case the opposite of false is true, so it sets toggle to true
then we use an if statement to check if toggle is true
then we use a repeat loop until toggle is false
4. Making a simple simulator GUI.
4.1Â Finding a game.
this is usually the easiest part, every month at least 1 new semi-popular simulator drops.
If you have a simulator in mind, you can skip this.
What I always do is just searching "simulator" in roblox and you'll find a lot, you wanna look for a game with around 100-1000 players, anything above probably already has scripts made for it(would defo check, in case there isn't any or only bad ones!)
4.2Â Checking out the game.
before making a script, you have to know what the purpose is, are there any remotes to fulfill the purpose, does it have an anticheat etc.
I'll be using Minion Simulator as an example game.
What I like to do first is executing frosthook and checking the remotes.
The purpose of the game is using your minions to mine gold bars, there happens to be a remote for that
The PartName can be found by going to workspace>Storage>Clickables>the zone(Valley in this case)
then theres a bunch of parts with random numbers, theres are all the bricks.
PetId is the minion your using (probably)
UpdateType is what the minion is gonna do, StartMoving means its going to brick (im guessing). Theres also StartMining which we can probably use later.
So if we execute the remote (with StartMining not StartMoving), we cant see the minion doing anything, but it will actually start mining.
Now we are gonna use a for loop to get all the bricks that our minion is gonna mine:
we used 2 if statements to check if what we want is actually what we want, so basically a double check.
then it's gonna mine all the bricks in the game
we can now make the script a lot smaller like so:
Now let's make another one on a different type of simulator
I'll be using Banana Simulator 2
The purpose of this game is eating bananas for coins
The remote for eating bananas is:
string_2 is the banana we are eating
now we can use a simple while loop to loop it
renderstepped isn't needed here because there's a debounce on the remote (cooldown). I also recommend using a short wait because after some time your game can start lagging and sometimes even crash.
I also made the script shorter.
I also noticed there are banana's on the ground which can be picked up, they also give cash which we can use to our advantage
The banana pickups are located at workspace.FruitDrops
So I used if v:IsA("NumberValue") then because if I were to check for a mesh it wouldn't work because there's multiple meshes that arent bananas, and only bananas have a NumberValue object in them
You could also collide with bananas, so I did CanCollide = false
I also noticed there was a BoolValue in the bananas called CanGet, which I'm not sure what it does so I just set it to true.
You can also make something like auto egg openings or something, which is usually done by a remote.
If you wanna make a teleport script, you can set your CFrame to the location you wanna go like so:
you can only set your CFrame to another CFrame!

This was so helpful thanks.

Nice but you're randomly switching between global and local variables without explaining the difference between them, which might confuse beginners
RE: Making scripts: How and where to get started. - French Spy - 12-27-2020
Well made, thank you for taking some of your time to do this
