For me i try to organize how mine looks.
Mine is filled with comments and spaces.
I try to make mine as easy to read as possible
Like as you can see this attack script for my game.
local attackEvent = game:GetService('ReplicatedStorage'):FindFirstChild('AttackEvents'):FindFirstChild('Gorilla')
local function detectPlayerFromChar(char)
if game:GetService('Players'):GetPlayerFromCharacter(char) then
print('Found the player')
return game:GetService('Players'):GetPlayerFromCharacter(char)
end
end
-- create a part
local function makePart(size,color,po, destroy, t, transparency)
local part = Instance.new('Part')
part.Size = size
part.BrickColor = color
part.CanCollide = false
part.CanTouch = false
part.Anchored = true
part.Transparency = transparency
part.Parent = workspace
if typeof(po) == "Vector3" then
part.CFrame = CFrame.new(po)
else
part.CFrame = po
end
if destroy == true then
game:GetService('Debris'):AddItem(part,t)
end
return part
end

I mean hey If i can read it then it works!
