How to Make Echoes on Roblox

"Roblox" is a free-form world design game that enables players to script events and objects in their levels. One of the most useful scripting commands is the echo function, which creates text reports of code as it executes for the game creator. If another player opens a door with echo code, for example, the game creator would receive a message in the game world that the door performed the opening command. Not only is the echo command a great way for players to debug their levels, it is also an effective means of keeping tabs on the events transpiring in your levels.

Instructions

- 1
  Open "Roblox" studios.
- 2
  Select an object for which you wish to create an echo command by dragging the mouse over the object.
- 3
  Expand the "Workspace" folder on the right side of the screen.
- 4
  Locate and expand the folder that is named after the object you selected with your mouse.
- 5
  Locate "Script" in that folder and access it by clicking on it. This action will open the code for the object.
- 6
  Scroll through the code to determine a line of code that you wish to perform an echo for.
- 7
  Type "print(...)" after the code that you want echoed, and replace the "..." with a customizable message. For example, if you wanted an echo to trigger whenever a door was opened, you would write, "print(The front door was just opened)" after the door-opening lines of code for a door object.
- 8
  Save your changes.
- 9
  Host a "Roblox" game. Trigger the event or wait for another player to trigger the event to receive the echo message.
