"return;" Command (or similar) in Lua?
Hello fellow devs! I have a fairly simple question this fine, fine evening.
I know in JavaScript, you can use the
1 | return; |
command to restart a for loop, etc.
I was wondering how I could do that with Lua.
My Code (The issue):
1 | -- This is wrapped in a bigger for loop. |
2 | if (Part:IsA("Part")) == false or Part.Name == "Solid" then |
3 | print("Removed".. Part.Name) |
4 | break -- I have also tried "return". |
5 | end |
Full code:
01 | local Model = script.Parent |
02 |
03 | wait(5) |
04 |
05 | for Model, Part in pairs(Model:GetChildren()) do |
06 | print(Part.Name) |
07 |
08 | if (Part:IsA("Part")) == false or Part.Name == "Solid" then |
09 | print("Removed".. Part.Name) |
10 | break |
11 | end |
12 |
13 | if Part.Shape == Enum.PartType.Block then |
14 | game.Workspace.Terrain:FillBlock(Part.CFrame, Part.Size, Enum.Material.Mud) |
15 | elseif Part.Shape == Enum.PartType.Cylinder then |

I'm either looking for another scriptinghelpers/DevForum link or an example.
Thanks in advance, Tim

Please provide explanation with your answers. Simply posting code does not spread knowledge of integral scripting processes which helps people understand the logic and reasoning behind your answer.
01 | local Model = script.Parent |
02 |
03 | wait(5) |
04 |
05 | function check(p) |
06 | if not p:IsA("BasePart") or p.Name == "Solid" then |
07 | print("Removed".. Part.Name) |
08 | return true |
09 | end |
10 | end |
11 |
12 | for Model, Part in pairs(Model:GetChildren()) do |
13 | print(Part.Name) |
14 |
15 | local checkstuff = check(Part) |
