Ever had an issue with a script, or needed someone to tell you how to do something in a project?
This forum is the place for you!





What to Do

First, you need to make a topic! Don't reply to another post asking for help, or not many people will see it. Click the “New Topic” button in the top right of the Help with Scripts forum. Be sure your topic has to do with needing help with scripts, not making art, requesting music, or something like that.



Choosing a Title

The first thing people see about your topic is the title. Make sure it makes sense, is specific, and it isn't too attention-seeking.

A good example
How do I delete the last item of a list?

A bad example
HELP ME!!!1!!

People are more likely to help if they understand what you need help with. If I'm good with variables, I'm more likely to click a topic that has a title about variables than a vague one that could be anything.



Explaining the Problem

First, you need to say what you need. If you have a glitch in code you already wrote, say so! Here's some examples of how to start based on different things you need.

A glitch in a script
I'm having trouble with my project. In one of the scripts, it doesn't function like I need it to. The items aren't being deleted from the list!

Advice on how to make a script
I'm wondering how to delete the last item from my list. I've tried a few things but I can't figure it out.

Now, you need to go into greater detail. Those are just examples of introductions. Notice how it's specific and makes sense. But, it still doesn't tell you exactly what you need help with. You need to say where in the script your problem occurs, if you know. You need to specify what the issue is - saying that the items in a list aren't being deleted is not specific. Make sure you note anything you've tried, and any theories as to why you think it won't work. Also make sure you say what your script is supposed to do. Try to give a link to the project where the problem occurs, and explain where you can find the script. Be sure that your project is shared! Make sure to also note what other scripts you think might be affecting it and/or causing the problem.
Here are some body examples to match the above:

A glitch in a script
I have a script that is supposed to always delete the last item of my list! I don't know what's wrong. Here's what the script looks like.
when I receive [message1 v]
delete (length of (list1 :: list)) of [list1 v]
It's supposed to delete the last one because the length of the list is always the last item. I think it might be because the length block is telling me the length of all of the total characters in the list, not the items, but I'm not sure. Please help!

Advice on how to make a script
I'm trying to make a script that will delete the last item in my list when it receives a message. I don't know how to do it. I tried to make it delete the tenth item in a list since it's usually ten items long, but sometimes it's longer so it glitches if I do that. Any ideas on how to do that?

Make sure you don't type too much. People might get bored, or think the issue is more complicated than it is and not want to help as much. You could get help in no time!



After you Post

Here are some more examples of how people might respond:

A glitch in a script
I think that your problem is that you are using the “length of ()” block from the operations category. Your script right now detects the length of the whole list, meaning if your list was “apple”, “banana”, “orange”, it would report the length of “applebananaorange” (17), and not the amount of items (3). Just change it to this block:
(length of [list1 v] :: list)
And it should work!

Advice on how to make a script
Maybe try this:
when I receive [message1 v]
delete (length of [list1 v] :: list) of [list1 v]
The length of the list is always the last item in it, no matter how long your list is, so it should work!

If someone misunderstands what you are asking, don't get mad! It's probably because you didn't explain well enough. Try to restate what you mean. Be sure to stay calm and possibly edit your original post to explain better as well.

If someone helps, be sure to thank them, and if they give you a script that you end up using, be sure to credit them in the Notes and Credits of your project.

I hope this guide could help you!
this is really helpful, thanks!
This is the best
how'd you come up with this.
