oops
Why is self the data you returned in the constructor function
Do you know Python? self is used to refer to the Class that contains the given methods or your case here the functions, so "self" refers to "module". anytime you create a new function, "self" is automatically given in ROBLOX's Lua API, so every function really is function module.Name(self)
