How to Set Up Your Roblox Obby with Parts
1. Create New Obby Project
Open Roblox Studio and on the “New” Tab select the Baseplate template. Make sure your Explorer and Properties windows are showing in the user interface. If not, click on the View menu and then select those windows by clicking on them.
2.Delete the Baseplate
To increase the challenge of your obby, let's remove the baseplate located beneath the spawn point. In the Explorer window, locate the Workspace and click the small arrow next to it to reveal all the parts within.
Next, select the Baseplate and press the Delete key on your keyboard.
4.Add Your First Part
Locate the Part button in the top toolbar of Roblox Studio.
To add your first part, click on the upper half of this button. The new part should appear on or near your spawn point.
4.Anchor, Position, and Shape Your Part
With your part still selected in the Explorer, locate the Anchor button and click it to ensure that your part remains in place when you start playing your game. It’s a good practice to anchor your parts immediately after creating them to avoid forgetting this step later.
Now it’s time to customize the appearance of your part and determine its placement in the obby. The three tools that will help you with this are Move, Scale, and Rotate. These tools are located in the top toolbar and will be among the most frequently used when creating your obby.
5.Change the Color and Material of Your Part
In the Properties window, typically located beneath the Explorer window, find the BrickColor and Material options. You can use these property values to change both the color and texture of your part. Give it a try!
6.Add More Parts
You can now add additional parts to your obby using the Part button on the toolbar. Notice the small arrow beneath the cube icon; clicking this arrow allows you to choose the shape of the part before adding it to your game. Remember to anchor all of your parts!
How to Add a Simple Script to Your Obby: Script a Fading Trap in Roblox
Adding a Roblox coding script to your obby parts can be a lot of fun and allows for exciting small changes. With scripts, you can make your block light up when touched or gradually disappear as players run over it. There are numerous ways to enhance the challenge of your obby by incorporating a few simple scripts. Here are the steps to add a script to your parts.
1.Select Your Part from the Explorer
In this script, we will make one part of your obby disappear when a player touches it. First, select the part you want to apply this script to, and click the + symbol next to it in the Explorer. Then, delete the default script line, which reads print("Hello World").
2.Type in Your Script
Enter the following script, ensuring that all punctuation marks and indentation are correctly included in your script page. Afterward, test your obby by clicking the Play button on the top toolbar! Once your player touches the part, it should disappear and then reappear three seconds later. The script consists of three main parts: identifying the part to apply (Line 1), defining the function that makes the platform disappear (Lines 3-12), and calling the function to trigger when the part is touched (Line 14).
3.Save Your Game
Remember to save your game frequently! You can do this by going to the File menu at the top of the Studio window and selecting Save to File. If you’re ready to publish your game to Roblox, choose Save to Roblox instead.
