Create multiple instances.new() in a smaller/organized way

[Niddox]

Is there anyway to create multiple instances.new() while not making it a giant list?

Example:

-- XP Multiplier

local XPMultiplier = Instance.new("NumberValue", DataFolder)

XPMultiplier.Name = "XPMultiplier"

XPMultiplier.Value = 1

-- DEF

local DEF = Instance.new("NumberValue", DataFolder)

DEF.Name = "DEF"

DEF.Value = 1

local DEFXP = Instance.new("NumberValue", DataFolder)

DEFXP.Name = "DEFXP"

DEFXP.Value = 0

-- STR

local STR = Instance.new("NumberValue", DataFolder)

STR.Name = "STR"

STR.Value = 1

local STRXP = Instance.new("NumberValue", DataFolder)

STRXP.Name = "STRXP"

STRXP.Value = 0

-- AGI

local AGI = Instance.new("NumberValue", DataFolder)

AGI.Name = "AGI"

AGI.Value = 1

local AGIXP = Instance.new("NumberValue", DataFolder)

AGIXP.Name = "AGIXP"

AGIXP.Value = 0

-- XP

local XPNeeded = Instance.new("NumberValue", DataFolder)

XPNeeded.Name = "XPNeeded"

XPNeeded.Value = 1000

-- Money

local Money = Instance.new("NumberValue", DataFolder)

Money.Name = "Money"

Money.Value = 0

-- PL

local PL = Instance.new("NumberValue", DataFolder)

PL.Name = "PL"

PL.Value = 1

This work?

local NumValues = {
	{Name = "XPMultiplier", Value = 1},
	{Name = "DEF", Value = 1},
	{Name = "DEFXP", Value = 0},
	{Name = "STR", Value = 1},
	{Name = "STRXP", Value = 0},
	{Name = "AGI", Value = 1},
	{Name = "AGIXP", Value = 0},
	{Name = "Money", Value = 0},
	{Name = "PL", Value = 1},
}

for _, tab in NumValues do
	local Name = tab.Name
	local Value = tab.Value
	
	local NumValue = Instance.new("NumberValue")
	NumValue.Name = Name
	NumValue.Value = Value
	NumValue.Parent = DataFolder
end

Works like a charm ty very much

Since you only care about 2 unique values here, a string and a number, you could actually simplify this further. Just use a dictionary where the name is the key and the value is… the value. Like this:

local numberValues = {
	XPMultiplier = 1,
	DEF = 1,
	DEFXP = 0,
	STR = 1,
	STRXP = 0,
	AGI = 1,
	AGIXP = 0,
	Money = 0,
	PL = 1,
}

for name, value in pairs(numberValues) do
	local numberValue = Instance.new("NumberValue")
	numberValue.Name = name
	numberValue.Value = value
	numberValue.Parent = DataFolder
end

Though I don’t know how this is implemented, another suggestion I can make is to not even bother with number values if you don’t need to. Just use a ModuleScript to store the information in a table, any scripts that need this information can grab it from the ModuleScript. If you don’t know what those are you should definitely look them up!

Thanks, I might try ModuleScript
