Is there a way to use "Break" on RunService?
Is there any method to break RunService? It seems like
1 | game:GetService("RunService").Heartbeat:Connect(function() |
2 | print("Hello") |
3 | break |
4 | end) |
Doesn't work...

You could disconnect the connection after setting the connection to a variable. It would look something like this,
1 | local Connection |
2 | Connection = RunService.Heartbeat:Connect(function() |
3 | Connection:Disconnect() |
4 | end) |

@iiNemo has a great answer if you want an event-connection-based solution. Sometimes you might want it in a loop, so you can use break like this:
1 | while true do |
2 | -- do your stuff |
3 | if condition then |
4 | break |
5 | end |
6 | RunService.Heartbeat:Wait() |
7 | end |
If you want to wait for Heartbeat only once, you can simply use RunService.Heartbeat:Wait() just like a wait() call.
