I keep getting the error "end:4: Expected function call arguments after '('". What?

while true do
    for _, v in pairs(game.Workspace:GetChildren()) do
        if v:WaitForChild("Part") or v.Name == "Part" then
        v:Destroy
    end 
end

This is a workspace cleaner. Every time it returns: end:4: Expected function call arguments after '(' What does this even mean?

Use v:IsA(ClassName) instead of waiting for a child. Dovydas1118 1495 — 3y

Yeah, i'll try that, (By the way, the aitforchild is to check if it is a model with parts inside) RFL890 4 — 3y

You are missing an end and the brackets of Destroy. Change your code to this:

while true do
    for _, v in pairs(game.Workspace:GetChildren()) do
        if v:WaitForChild("Part") or v.Name == "Part" then
        v:Destroy() -- You also need to add brackets.
        end
    end 
end

Ah. Thank you! (I never thought old me would do such an error, and use waitforchild() not IsA()) RFL890 4 — 3y
