Attempt to compare Instance < Instance |Error

[catxkdb]

I’m getting an error called Instance < Instance, here’s the code:

local pets = {}
		
for x, c in pairs(eggPets:GetChildren()) do
    table.insert(pets, c)
end
		
table.sort(pets)

table.sort requires a metric to determine which element precedes the other. Instances themselves are just userdatas, and there is no known way of comparing them.

You need to compare a viable aspect of your pets in a predicate function, for example, their Names:

table.sort(pets, function(petA, petB)
    return petA.Name > petB.Name
end)

[Forummer]

petA.Name < petB.Name if you want the pets sorted alphabetically.
