What is local Brick = script.Parent mean

#5

Those are variables. It’s basically setting a word, in that case “Brick” to a value, it can be a number, string (text), or even an object. In that case, it’s setting “Brick” to the parent of the script, so for the rest of that script if you say “Brick” like for example:

print(Brick.Name)

you’ll get the name of the scripts parent.
