These are my questions: will adding an attribute edit all of the same instance? For example, if I add an attribute to a part, will it also add on to the other parts? Or is it restricted to just that one part? Having both options(maybe 2 functions, :SetAttribute and :SetInstanceAttributes).
A more in depth explanation here:
Suggested Features:
I don’t see object value in there, that would surely be helpful!
Will there be a FindAttribute or WaitForAttribute function? This would improve consistency and help shorten code.
Gone are the days of just making values, now its not important to store values which is now useless on the other side can we get the table of attributes? in code
Object value type would be useful! For example we could add a “Destination” attribute to a portal/door to allow linking it to its destination portal/door object (to replace using ObjectValue).
yayyyy, big motivation coming into me! I have been waiting for attributes for quite a long ever since I saw colbert hyping it up XD
One question is, will there, by possibility be a method to get every attributes available within game? I would like to have some global configuration and link up those attributes to certain objects or simply review the attributes that I have set which both requires me to have a centralized way of altering those objects at once. If this method is available, I will be able to make a custom plugin to do so.
It is actually better not to be able to get them like that, because if you name a attribute the same as an existing property there could be issues, unless they added a safeguard that you can’t add attributes with property names that already exist.
Wait a minute… I never even heard of this! Once it’s out of beta I might just move away from dictionaries because this seems to be easier to use. Can’t wait!
That is true, they already have some name restrictions in place so they could possibly add that safeguard you said before allowing us to define it that way.
I have been anticipating this feature for a while now! I can’t wait to play around with these! I also can’t wait to see how others play around with these - I know that many packages and free models will be a lot easier to organize with this!
I am definitely feeling like CFrame is a needed value here. We have Vector2 and Vector3, CFrames are used just as much for positioning.
On a lesser request, maybe some time we can get Instances as a valid type? I know you can do it in Unity and it does make things a lot easier, but it isn’t something that is a 100% solid use case.
