Shortening inbuilt Roblox Methods

Help and Feedback Scripting Support
#1

Hello Developers!

This may be a confusing topic but I’ll try my best to explain it. So currently I am creating a module to attempt to shorten Roblox methods but I don’t know if it’s even possible. Here is what I have recently tried to get working but it’s not.

This is an example of shortening the PlayerJoined event to just pjEvent:
Server Script:

local LuaQuery = require(script.LuaQuery)

LuaQuery.pjEvent(function(Player)
	print(Player.Name)
end)

Module Script:

local LuaQuery = {}

LuaQuery.pjEvent = function()
	game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(Player)
		return Player
	end)
end

return LuaQuery
#2

You’re never accepting the function and never calling it in the ModuleScript

#3

It would be as simple as LuaQuery.pjEvent = Players.PlayerAdded
