How would I give a variable multiple values?

Hi there! I’m trying to tween the player’s body parts to be invisible, then back to being visible but I ran into an issue, some decals/textures on the player dont have 0 transparency. How could I write a variable that holds the original transparency values so I dont have to tween each one separately.

I’ve looked through some topics and did a couple of things but nothing has worked so far, all help would be appreciated.

Attributes were made for this, use Get attribute. Or set attribute to the original value.

You could use a table variable

If you’re wanting to tween all the players body parts to be invisible you could use a for loop through all of the parts and check if they’re a BasePart and tween their transparency.

Example script:

local TweenService = game:GetService("TweenService")

for i, part in pairs(character:GetChildren()) do -- Get all instances inside the player model
	if part:IsA("BasePart") then -- Check if its a BasePart
		TweenService:Create(part, TweenInfo.new(.25, Enum.EasingStyle.Quad), {Transparency = 1}):Play() -- Play the tween so it becomes invisible
	end
end

local currentTransparencies = {}

local function saveTransparencies(player)
	local character = player.Character
	currentTransparencies[player] = {}
	
	for _, descendant in ipairs(character:GetDescendants()) do
		if descendant:IsA("BasePart") or descendant:IsA("Decal") then
			currentTransparencies[player][descendant.Name] = descendant.Transparency
		end
	end
end

local function loadTransparencies(player)
	local character = player.Character
	
	for instanceName, transparencyValue in pairs(currentTransparencies[player]) do
		local instance = character:FindFirstChild(instanceName, true)
		if instance then
			instance.Transparency = transparencyValue
		end
	end
end

Here’s an approach to solve this problem, you’d need to implement the tweening.
