How to use returns in loading scripts

[MGC_MAD5 (JesusDiedforU)]

Hi guys, I’d like to know when to use returns when loading scripts

(2 Examples)

You could use the return keyword in loading scripts to terminate the rest of the execution of the particular thread, for example;

for _, v in AssetsFolder:GetChildren() do
    if v:GetAttribute("Loaded") == true then 
        return 
    else
       -- load the object
    end
end

another example could be a module function to initialise data:

function module.LoadData(forWho: player)
     if forWho:FindFirstChild("leaderstats") then 
        warn("Data already loaded for " .. forWho.Name .. ".")
        return forWho:FindFirstChild("leaderstats")
    else
        createLeaderstats(forWho)
     end
end

can you give me a second example please

You can use return to send values back to another thread, for example:

local function addNumbers(a, b)
    return a + b
end

local result = addNumbers(5, 3)
print(result)  -- Output will be 8
