Scripting is what makes your Roblox game interactive. With code, you can make parts move, respond to players, or even create entire game systems. Don't worry—this guide will walk you through everything step by step.
Step 1: Open Roblox Studio
Start by launching Roblox Studio. Select "New" and then choose the Baseplate template. This gives you a blank world to experiment in.
Step 2: Insert a Script
1. In the Explorer panel, find Workspace.
2. Right-click Workspace → Insert Object → Script.
3. A new script appears with some default code: Print ("Hello World")
Step 3: Understanding Your First Script
• print() is a command that displays text in the Output window.
• Text inside quotes " " is called a string.
• Running this script simply prints "Hello world!"—your first step into coding!
Step 4: Run the Script
1. Click Play at the top of Roblox Studio.
2. Open the Output window (View → Output) to see your message.
Tip: Always check the Output window for messages—it's where your scripts "talk" to you.
You've now successfully written and run your first Roblox script. This is the foundation for everything else, from animations to game mechanics.
