Will I have to manually remove functions connected to an object when it is destroyed?

[rogeriodec_games]

If I connect, a function to the property, e.g. Touched of an object:

MyPart.Touched:Connect(function(OtherPart)
    ...
end)

… and at some point, I destroy this object: MyPart:Destroy() …

… is this connection automatically removed by the Engine?
Or should I worry about manually removing this connection before destroying the object?

The function will not be ‘removed’, so to speak, however there will be nothing to send the Touched signal, so you won’t need to worry about it.

I see, but technically speaking, if I have 1000 objects created and then destroyed, will there be 1000 functions taking up memory or processing, somehow hurting the game’s performance?

When a part gets destroyed, all event connections to that part are also disconnected automatically

Only the one lambda function is defined.

Question regarding function memory allocation

function self.blah() end Is syntactic sugar for: self.blah = function() end Unlike tables, functions are mutable and do not change state (cannot be used to track state). In this instance, the ‘blah’ key/field for each of the 10 ‘self’ tables points to the same lambda function, it does not need to be redefined 10 times as it can be held in memory and it will always contain the same body of code (regardless of the table it belongs to). This is just one of the many memory optimisations undert…

Additionally, a destroyed instances connections are automatically disconnected.

If connections gets spammed, there will be so much lag…
