Simple Function Problem

Help and Feedback Scripting Support

I am simply wondering if this would work?

Error: Workspace.Lasers.LaserDetect:7: attempt to call a nil value

local laser = script.Parent:GetChildren()

function laserHit(Hit)
	
end

laser.Touched:Connect(laserHit)

I am assuming getchildren returns a table

Oh sorry, laser is a folder which contains the parts

And that is the problem – laser isn’t a mixed table. It has no Touched field therefore.

You’ll want to go through each instance individually.

local lasers = script.Parent:GetChildren() -- it's a list of items, might as well make it plural :p

local function laserHit(Hit)
	
end

for _, laser in ipairs(lasers) do
	laser.Touched:Connect(laserHit)
end
