The Advanced Roblox Coding Book An Unofficial Guide Learn How to Script Games Code Objects and Settings and Create Your Own World! Unofficial Roblox Heath Haskins eBook Reviews

•  This coding book by Heath Haskins says, "Advanced", but it really encompasses basics and then he demonstrates how to incorporate it into your own game. The first few chapters will go over functions, variables, loops and other terminology someone who is just learning to script will need to know. The next in the book is scripting those functions in to creating teleports by using CFrame, power ups, blocks that will damage a player and blocks that heal the player. If you are familiar with the simulator type games that a player can be given a pet, this book teaches you how to script an object to follow a player. Once he covers the basics and some functioning scripts that are great to use in a game he will help you make your first game.
  
  Your first game is an obby that he will give you a tutorial on how to build models and union parts, script models to move and parts to fall or damage. The book shows how to create a "controller script". This script will be able to add background music, Gui messages for the player, as well as, award the player a badge for completing the obby. This chapter teaches you how to have a NPC start a sound that is a dialogue to the game. After the dialogue the script will add a "pointlight" to the player to help him/her navigate the obby. The end of the book helps you with an on-going problem all developers have and that is exploiters/hackers. You will learn remote events, filtering enabled and create a script that will detect and kick an exploiter out of the game.
  
  This book is very easy to understand and follow the directions. The author makes it fun and helps more visual learners, like myself, with many screenshots to help direct you. I highly recommend this book!
• I started learning ROBLOX about a month ago. I have purchased a lot of the ROBLOX books available on
  . Most are so old that some of the examples don't work anymore.
  
  I just got this book today and read the first 100 pages. It has already answered a lot of the questions that
  I still had after looking at the other books. It starts out for a beginner and later chapters are advanced.
  The author explains everything very well.
  
  FYI - the other very good book is the one by DAVID JAGNEAUX - (ultimate ROBLOX book)
• I got this for my 11 year old son. We have been reading through it together, and we haven't gotten far yet, but I think it does a decent job of telling what steps you need to take. My son is too impatient and wants to keep jumping ahead, so we are doing it together. Depending on your child's maturity level, they could use the book to learn Luna coding on their own. Hopefully can update when we get further in the book, to see how accurate the info is then, but it looks good.
• The book helps teach new learners like me how to script and It is written in an effective and organized manner.
  The title is misleading, however, as this book does not go into some more in-depth factors in scripting and is not advanced, when put in that perspective. However, if you consider the word “advanced” may have been used to show that the book goes into many different parts of lua.
  In conclusion, the book is a helpful learning tool for those that wish to learn how to script in lua and I would recommend it to any new users.
• My 10 year old son really likes Roblox and is also learning basic coding. The tutorials in this book are easy for him to follow and are allowing him to build his own game in the Roblox universe.
