ObjectController is a module that allows developers to easily create custom classes that support inheritance
Example usage
local ObjectController = require(game.ReplicatedStorage.ObjectController)
local Object = ObjectController.Create("ClassName")
Object:SomeMethod()
Object.Value = 5
local AnotherObject = ObjectController.new("ClassName") -- .new() exists for consistency with Instance.new
Example class
local Class = {
Value = 0,
}
function Class.Init(self)
print("Initializing " .. self.Class .. ", setting value to 5!")
self:IncreaseValue(5)
print("Value is now " .. self.Value)
end
function Class:IncreaseValue(Amount)
print("Increasing value by " .. tostring(Amount))
self.Value = self.Value + Amount
return self.Value
end
return Class
Inheritance
Parent a class to another class to inherit it. Unlimited inheritance levels are supported. In this case, DemoClass would inherit properties and values from Object
