Handling Instanced and Non-Instanced Objects with one script

Help and Feedback Scripting Support
#1

So I’m making a basketball game and I’m trying to make one script that handles all the balls. I’ve been using Collection Service and I’m stuck trying to run the code on Instanced and Non-Instanced Balls. I’ve been using for loops to run the code but while the loop is running the event I have set in place to tag instanced balls doesn’t fire.

-- Services 
local CollectionService = game:GetService("CollectionService") 


--Loops through workspace when game starts and adds Ball Tag to Basketballs
for _, Basketball in pairs (workspace:GetDescendants()) do 
	if Basketball:IsA("MeshPart") and Basketball.Name == "Basketball" then
		CollectionService:AddTag(Basketball,"Ball")
		print("TagAdded")
		
	end
end


workspace.DescendantAdded:Connect(function(Descendent) 
	print("Descendent".."Added")
	if Descendent:IsA("MeshPart") and Descendent.Name == "Basketball" then
		CollectionService:AddTag(Descendent,"Ball")
		print("TagAdded2")
	end
end)
--^^Doesn't Fire while Loop is running 


--Basketball Handler 
for i,v  in pairs (CollectionService:GetTagged("Ball")) do
	v.Touched:Connect(function(hit)
		if hit.Parent:FindFirstChild("Humanoid") then
			print("Hit")
		end
	end)


end

just put the event before the loop,

--event for DescendantAdded

--loop GetDescendants

edit: but in the loop, make sure you use :HasTag to make sure you don’t give the ball the tag again

#3

Which loop are you talking about when u say :HasTag

#4

the only loop in the script, but don’t actually worry about that, It doesn’t matter if you give something the same tag twice, so you can ignore my edit on that post
