How do I get all the parts and children of models in workspace?
I was working on a rainbow part script, and then I though it would be cool if I could get everything in Workspace, and make it rainbow...
Here is what I have so far.
for _,part in pairs(workspace:GetChildren()) do --NEED HELP HERE
if part:IsA("BasePart") then --NEED HELP HERE
end
while true do --no need to mess with past here...
wait(1)
wait(0.1)
game:GetService('TweenService'):Create(
part,TweenInfo.new(1,Enum.EasingStyle.Linear,Enum.EasingDirection.InOut),
{Color = Color3.fromRGB(255, 0, 0)}):Play()
wait(1.1)
game:GetService('TweenService'):Create(
part,TweenInfo.new(1,Enum.EasingStyle.Linear,Enum.EasingDirection.InOut),
{Color = Color3.fromRGB(255, 155, 0)}):Play()
wait(1.1)
game:GetService('TweenService'):Create(
part,TweenInfo.new(1,Enum.EasingStyle.Linear,Enum.EasingDirection.InOut),
{Color = Color3.fromRGB(255, 255, 0)}):Play()
wait(1.1)
game:GetService('TweenService'):Create(
part,TweenInfo.new(1,Enum.EasingStyle.Linear,Enum.EasingDirection.InOut),
{Color = Color3.fromRGB(0, 255, 0)}):Play()
wait(1.1)
game:GetService('TweenService'):Create(
part,TweenInfo.new(1,Enum.EasingStyle.Linear,Enum.EasingDirection.InOut),
{Color = Color3.fromRGB(0, 255, 255)}):Play()
wait(1.1)
game:GetService('TweenService'):Create(
part,TweenInfo.new(1,Enum.EasingStyle.Linear,Enum.EasingDirection.InOut),
{Color = Color3.fromRGB(0, 155, 255)}):Play()
wait(1.1)
game:GetService('TweenService'):Create(
part,TweenInfo.new(1,Enum.EasingStyle.Linear,Enum.EasingDirection.InOut),
{Color = Color3.fromRGB(255, 0, 255)}):Play()
wait(1.1)
game:GetService('TweenService'):Create(
part,TweenInfo.new(1,Enum.EasingStyle.Linear,Enum.EasingDirection.InOut),
{Color = Color3.fromRGB(255, 0, 155)}):Play()
wait(1.1)
end

Someone here already answered your question: GetDescendants()
Hey man by the way, you shouldn't use the same code over and over again. You should optimize your scripts by creating functions for reusability, just thought I'd leave a tip.

The question has already been answered, but it is not enough to make it work. To make this work you will need coroutines. But first few tips.
First of all Rainbow effect, just screams to use Color3.fromHSV constructor. By manipulating H value, you can easily get all rainbow colours in right order.
Second of all, unless you only have few parts in workspace this will lag A LOT. It is good idea to prepare as much as you can outside the main loop.
Finally you are going to have to create need separate coroutines, unless you set your tweens to repeat on their own. Sometimes infinite tweens are enough, but in this case there is no way to set single tween to go through all colours on its own since Roblox does not use HSV Colours by default.
Without going to deep into coroutines, lets just use spawn this time. Think of whatever is in spawn like a separate script running. We will have separate "script" for each part. Again do not do this for large map, everything will just lag horribly otherwise.
local TS = game:GetService("TweenService")
local style = TweenInfo.new(1,Enum.EasingStyle.Linear,Enum.EasingDirection.InOut)
local targets = {}
local h = 0
repeat
table.insert(targets,Color3.fromHSV(h,1,1))
h = h + 0.1
until h > 1
for _, part in pairs(workspace:GetDescendants()) do
if part:IsA("BasePart") then
spawn(function()
local tweens = {}
for _, target in ipairs(targets) do
table.insert(tweens,TS:Create(part,style,{Color = target}))
end
local i = 1
while true do
tweens[i]:Play()
tweens[i].Completed:Wait()
i = i + 1
if i > #tweens then
i = 1
end
end
end)
wait(1) --make wait so that parts do not have the same color at the same time
end
end
Have fun!
