Makes no sense. The code you sent works completely fine for me in my studio, and I’m doing the exact same thing as you. Maybe try reopening studio and see if that fixes anything, or try @Exozorcus 's proposed solution

#22

wait hang on you have to define start inside the initialize method

#23

it prints the SetValues for you?

#24 
local aTable = {}
aTable._index = {}

function aTable.initialize(MinSpeed, MaxSpeed, AccelIncrement)
	local self = {}
	setmetatable(self, aTable)

	-- Values --
	self.SetValues = {}
	self.SetValues.MIN_SPEED = MinSpeed
	self.SetValues.MAX_SPEED = MaxSpeed
	self.SetValues.ACCEL_INCREMENT = AccelIncrement
	self.SetValues.GRAV = workspace.Gravity
	function self:start(self2)
		print(self.SetValues)
		print('yay')
	end
	print(self)
	aTable = self
end
print(aTable)

aTable.initialize()
aTable:start()

this should work

#25

Yes – minimum characters needed

Here’s the code:

local module = require(game.ServerScriptService.ModuleScript)

local MinSpeed = 10
local MaxSpeed = 200
local AccelIncrement = 2

local obj = module.initialize(MinSpeed, MaxSpeed, AccelIncrement)
task.wait(5)
obj:start()

local aTable = {}
local metatable = {__index = aTable}

function aTable.initialize(MinSpeed, MaxSpeed, AccelIncrement)
	local self = {}
	setmetatable(self, metatable)

	-- Values --
	self.SetValues = {}
	self.SetValues.MIN_SPEED = MinSpeed
	self.SetValues.MAX_SPEED = MaxSpeed
	self.SetValues.ACCEL_INCREMENT = AccelIncrement
	self.SetValues.GRAV = workspace.Gravity
	--
	return self
end
--
function aTable:start(target)
	print(self.SetValues)
end

return aTable

roblox studio weirdness moment

#27

wait… this does work… thats so weird, for some reason its not working in the other script

#28

roblox studio weirdness moment x 2

#29

im wondering if maybe theres a typo somewhere??

#30

well it doesnt work for me so its probably just roblox studio

#31

Just copy my code into your studio and see if it works

#32

wait a sec, i might’ve figured it out. in your server script, you set the “initialize” function call equal to a variable, I didnt do that.

#33

oops wrong reply, meant to reply to @bleintant

#34

Oh yeah. That’s what it is. Do that and it’ll work
