Let's compile a list of common scripting mistakes in Roblox development: **1. Not using WaitForChild()** ```lua -- Bad: May error if child hasn't loaded local part = workspace.MyPart -- Good: Waits for the child to exist local part = workspace:WaitForChild("MyPart") ``` **2. Forgetting to disconnect events** Always disconnect event connections when they're no longer needed to prevent memory leaks. **3. Running server code on client** Never trust the client. Always validate on the server side. What mistakes have you learned from? Share below!
