Problem with functions

Help and Feedback Scripting Support

Hi there,
I’ve encountered an issue with functions.

So here I have this code:

local function Function1()
   print("Pizza")
   wait(1)
   print("Burger")
end

local function Function2()
   print("Fries")
   wait(1)
   print("Tacos")
end

Function1()
Function2()
Function3()
Function4()

print("Functions are done running.")

The issue is that I need to wait until all the functions finish running to print ("Functions are done running.")

Is there a way I can print it and run the functions at the same time ?

you can use the task library for this. task.spawn(f) puts function f on its own thread and runs it. If you spawn the functions you can achieve this. You could also use coroutines but in this case it is not necessary.

Worked perfectly as I wanted to. Thanks you very much!

Yes. Adding to what @mc3334 said above, here is how:

local function Test1()
print("hi")
end

local function Test2()
print("bye")
end


task.spawn(Test1)
Test2()

AHH! NO! Unnecessary step!!! Do this:

function foo() end

task.spawn(foo)

There’s no need to wrap a function in a function just to task.spawn it

Hmm also I know this isn’t the post’s point but it says "Interval is empty" where there is the math.random

Is there anything wrong?

flip your numbers. You need (-20,-10)

min,max

there is no number greater then -10 but less then -20, which is why you must flip them

In negative numbers -

The bigger the number is, the smaller it is. Thus : -20 is smaller than -10.
