I need help with math.random

Help and Feedback Scripting Support
#21

it seems to be choosing the models based on creation date cause its not removing them from the model and i want the deletion of models to be instant, with the said model being what is randomized

#22 
function SortRandom(Objs)
	local sorted = {}
	local Taken = {}
	for Index, Value in pairs(Objs) do
		local function Sort()
			local RandomSlot = math.random(1, #Objs)
			if Taken[RandomSlot] == nil then
				Taken[RandomSlot] = true
				sorted[RandomSlot] = Value
			else
				Sort()
			end
		end
		Sort()
	end	
	return sorted
end


for _, Value in pairs(SortRandom(workspace.Folder:GetChildren())) do
	Value:Destroy()
	wait(1)
end
Table.sort only works sometimes (invalid sorting function for sorting)

im sorry if im asking for too much lol im just kinda new to this

#24

Are you trying to delete all of the parts inside each Tile? All of them instantly? And then wait 1 second before choosing a new tile’s children to delete?

#25

yeah thats what im going for with this minigame

#26 
local Tiles = script:GetChildren()

while (#Tiles > 0) do
    local Index = math.random(1, #Tiles)
    local Tile = table.remove(Tiles, Index)

    Tile:ClearAllChildren()
    wait(1)
end
