Why I Hate Roblox Abilities 

USE CODE "EDGEBYTE" FOR 50% OFF (ends in 3 days lol) linktr.ee/ByteBlox

this chad just said "I hate roblox abilites, now you all are going to learn quickly and in depth how to make them properly instead of just copying code"

Omg i can't actually stand how good this tutorial is, like, you actually explain everything and not just typing funny letters

Clicked to see unhinged 11 minutes rant on roblox abilities, got a tutorial on how to code them instead (I’m loving it btw keep up the good work)

Love how this video explains how to code an ability. I kinda expected it to be ranting about how games based on abilities suck or something like that. I never understood coding, but seeing this video made me understand things, and it was actually nice to go through. Thank you for this video, even if I'm definitely not going to start coding any time soon.

Thank you ByteBlox. As a person who has been playing Roblox for a while now, I have realized the significance of what its like to know Roblox Abilities as a beginner. This video has changed my life and has leveled me up to a higher being in this plane of existence. Without this video I wouldn't have been enlightened and changed but because you made this video it has changed my life. I would like to thank you, your keyboard, your dog and your localscripts for changing my life to where I am now.

I’ve watched hundreds of roblox coding tutorials and have gone through many forums that have thought me nothing but your video single handedly has helped explain what remoteevents do and what inputbegan actually means, I genuinely can’t believe how absolutely amazing this video is.

watching this as I code in studio lol

Great tutorial I myself have been struggling quite a bit with Luau scripting and trying to find out where to start to making abilities, thanks for the help!

Thanks so much, I've wanted to make a Roblox game for the longest but would always stop at some point as I'd either get confused or be stuck in a loop of finding tutorials that just tell you "Copy/Paste this code into your game" but since you actually explain everything, I can easily learn what the code does and be able to use that knowledge to re-use it later without confusion.

i love your content. ive been trying to get into roblox development but i havent seen many tutorials that are fit right for me. most tutorials i find are either for advanced people or people who have never touched code before. i have been coding for 2 years now but ive never touched lua, im glad i found someone like you and ive been looking at your videos every now and then. tysm appreciate the content a lot!

ngl this tutorial is probably the most well explained about remote events and how local scripts work, good work dude I'd love to see more videos like this in the future 👌

although the video is targeted at roblox devs this is super helpful for anyone else coding in a different engine, just use your brain and run through what you need for each thing and then figure out how to code it with the resources provided, really love the style of not just giving out the info and actually giving the reason as to why you're coding something lovely video :D (i never plan on using roblox i just love watching these videos lol)

already knew how to do it but still watched bc ur my fav roblox devtuber!

I love this tutorial. You actually explain what everything does instead of mindlessly copying code. That should honestly be the new standard for roblox coding tutorials

No long intros no nothing just a simple tutorial for abilites I LOVE IT, would love a sequal for more complex ones

:D glad I found your channel very informative ❤

I appreciate how you actually explain the code rather than giving zero explanation.

This channel is more of an entertainment channel than a learning resource for me. (Content is good)

You have single-handedly saved my motivation for learning to program. Thanks dude.

I learned so much stuff from this video in under like 5 minutes than the other 20 minute coding videos thx dude

it's actually insane how you explained it so well and simple unlike others

I love youre videos and that you actully explain the code so i can learn to make codes myself

Speaking of abilities, one of yours is great tutorial videos. Seriously, this is one of the most straightforward, comprehensive ones I have ever seen

This is the exact type of tutorial I wanted, love the way you explained what everything did in a way that was easy to understand.

Thx bro i needed this. Make videos like this also i subscribed already

You earned a sub! Thanks for the learning :D

Been trying to get my 2 year old sister to do this for 2 hours, I'm beginning to think the thumbnail is not actually true...

I expected this to be a rant video but it turned out to be a good tutorial

As someone planning their own game engine, seeing how a developer makes things is helpful to guide what I need to add. This video was perfect for that!

As someone who codes in c++ and c# I would never have guessed what InputBegan means, thank you SO MUCH for explaining that

Ey Bro Ngl I’ve been trying to seek the motivation to keep up with my battlegrounds game and this is what I needed! I cannot then you enough:)

truly a great video

I love your vids man, you know so much about scripting

You are an absolute gem of a channel. You explain things so well, thank you 🙏

i am so thankful that you exist bro thank you so much with these tutorials :)

im making a game about figthing with different figthing styles and abilities so this was really helpful :D

I love these videos man, I legit dont even play roblox, but these are so entertaining but they also give me insight into coding specifically for roblox, giving some insight on how you even dev on a game like this.

The hell now I'm kinda motivated start learning scripting this is actually so cool

I like this guys videos. He actually explains how to make stuff rather than dragging and dropping. He actually goes in depth on what does what.

Dude thank you so much, Instead of just teaching me to do some random ass thing you teach me an entire concept and a random ass thing. Jokes aside, I had fun watching this video because you don’t sound like a robot and because you teach very well. Keep up the good work 👌

Somthing really cool is that jejutsu shenanigans has a ability you have to say a phrase for that being "twin metoeres" then" scale of the dragon" lastly "recoil" and i think thats pretty cool

Hi small nitpick, but you should do the debounce within the if check otherwise it will cooldown for every single key (if you press a for example then press e it won’t do anything)

Dude. These are the types of tutorials we need, Roblox LUA has dogwater documentation, thank you for the tutorial! I hope you have more on your channel!

This is the "Blender Donut" of Roblox Studio. Amazing!

this was a nice tut that explains everything pacingis nice aswell, w vid.

Hey man, I'm new to coding on Roblox and followed this guide to mess around with some stuff but I noticed that with the cooldown mechanic even though it is set to put whatever key you pressed on cooldown, it also activates when you press other keys. For example when moving around using WASD that causes the cooldown to activate, or clicking with the mouse. I tried making it to where the "db = true" after the button is pressed but it allows for a couple key presses before the "db = true" I know that there are probably more efficient ways to make something like this but I like this method. It could also be a fault in my code but I pretty much just copied and pasted it from this video.

Commentinkg to boost this vid in the algorithm, cuz this is actually amazing

Talk about the vulnerabilities of Roblox data storage in a video; it's incredibly important to teach young developers about it. I've come across a couple of games with such poor security that a glitch can exploit the in-game currency system.

howcome your setting of the explosion location worked even though you set the position of the explosion as a instance? I had to append .position after waitforchild() for it to work. Thanks, love your vids!

I think you should try making a video of the most complex door possible like old minecraft videos

I respect anyone who does this, but I plan to learn eventually. This is a good start for making my OC’s abilities.

Awesome video! :D

thank you very much my good sir, as I wish to develop a game but I am on the slower side of things. I shall use your knowledge as my own, i once again thank you from the bottom of my heart byteblox, my love..

I never coded in roblox studio bc i thought it was hard, but then I watched this video, and just the simplicity of the video and pure charisma of the author enlighted me

2 years ago when I wax inexperienced in coding, I would always use this script that took a model from a folder somewhere, and would spawn it on your rootpart, and I managed to make abilities out of this

As someone who is planning to make a Roblox Game, thank you

BRO IT IS THAT EASY?! I LITERALLY EVERYTIME I WATCH AN ABILITY TUTORIAL IT'S THE HARDEST THING TO DO! Thank you so much. I also learned what "for i, v in" i stands for how much players and v is players themselves.

THE BEST TUTORIAL IVE EVER SEEN. YOUR DA BESTTTTTTT

Dont put your debounce into the general event function, if you do that any key press will set the variable to true meaning that if you press W to move forward and then try to use the ability it wont work. Only update the debounce if the desired input was pressed

I already new how to do this. it took me 2 braincells to figure this out BUT, the way he returns nil instead of having a big long if statement tree is a new insight.

Cool tutorial but i want to remind that you're better off learning Luau (or coding in general) before trying to make a game using only articles you find online cause it will get easily chaotic when trying to make very specific things

thank you for teaching me some lua 👍

Make a video on IKControls!

I'm starting to think ByteBlox is a Jojo fan, so in honor of ByteBlox.. I shall make an ability also.

this is literally the only tutorial ive watched that has worked

yeah... edit: contextactionservice is recommended for this type of thing edit: you should probably make detection if the player can use it, and a debounce on the server - players can spam abilities and such otherwise.

Just randomly clicked on that video and now I know what is process after the key shit

As a baby this tutoriel really did work for me

the video description got me

Abilities/skills are ez to make, but the db part that stores if you do or no not have the ability is... a bit more important to debug

you explain just like my brother and he explains perfectly!

thank you so much

because of this video im going to learn coding now, idk what game on roblox im gonna eventually make, but i know I want to make A game

This video was a golden experience

well considering im making a game called Grand Seas, this video came in kinda handy lol

I can't purchase your guide, and Im French. BUT I can understand a little English.And when I see your merch store, and this button switch to the canadian(fr) shop, it was beautiful. I love watch English videos because actually there is no cool videos in French. So I Discovered you and (AI). I use most of the case Google Gemini instead of the assistant in Roblox. But all of your videos are cool. Thank you. And I hope you will read this comment, because some big RU-vidrs don't read comments. That why. :) Bye!!! 😄

dude your tutorials are amazing, i really need help. i’m trying to make it so that a horror character model i made is constantly looking at the player with his head, there’s literally no tutorials on it. i’ve tried looking everything up. the game i am using inspiration off of is party.exe, so if you’re confused on what i mean join that game and look how the horror character looks at the player. i do know that in party.exe he attached a motor to the horror characters head, but i don’t know how to make the motor’s rotation track the player! i really hope you see this and can make a tutorial on something like that!! thanks!

me watching this video while eating cereal knowing im never using this information in my entire life (insert person eating ruffles meme)

I personally wouldn’t recommend a wait based denounce, I would use a time based one since you wouldn’t have to maintain an open active thread But I assume this is just for newbies/people who don’t plan on making full games?

17 mins ago, effects are gaming

Isnt it better for cooldowns to be handled on the server since the client can be easily hacked🤔

this guy explained more than my school teachers have in two years.

I never knew some thing not related to slap battles would help me code abilities for my slap battles fan game

Can you make a tool that explodes the player when clicking on a player except you dealing 35 damage (note: the explosion have a sound effect and have a cooldown of 20 seconds)

6:25 that explains soooooooooooooooooooooo much

Good games never make abilities like this but yes this is a good starting point.

This made me laugh lmfaooooo What a way to emotionally whiplash an audience into computer science

how is this the most comprehensive tutorial I’ve seen what

good job overall I like your method of genuinely explaining what is happening rather than just punching in code and saying "just copy this!!!", but personally I feel like you drag on your explanations too much and consume a lot of time doing them additionally, please consider moving the cooldown to server-side. client-sided cooldowns can easily be exploited.

i have no idea what im watching right now he's just saying gibberish

needs 5 remote functions with the capability to delete the baseplate and modify ingame variables

wow this is actually very good totoruial than ku

Hey, can you make a video on mouse input? I was trying to code a magic system where it uses the mouse general position to draw glyphs in a 4 tile base, but i still dont know how to get that info

This is one of the few videos where I actually fully understand what’s going on

Guys Byteblox is Jojo's Reference lol

Hey, just a quick little thing for everyone, there's actually a much better way to do this. Using ContextActionService is super helpful when setting up abilities and allows you to dicate when and when a player cannot do an action.

I know its not the code but probably something that only happening to me but the script isn't even doing the print function and I have no clue as to why

Now THIS THIS is an actual tutorial he doesnt just type stuff he tells you what the stuff does and why it works like an actual teacher and you know the best part? You understand

shouldn't you put the cooldown on the server?
