How do you Edit object values?

Asked 189 views1 answers

I was practicing my scripts and I always wondered why selection parts would not show when I inserted them into a part. Finally, I think I found the answer. YOU HAVE TO CHANGE THE ADORNEE TO THE PARTS NAME. So I did in the command bar the following:

game.Workspace.Part.SurfaceSelection.Adornee = "Part"

but then, it said in the output:

> game.Workspace.Part.SurfaceSelection.Adornee = ("Part")
13:57:04.882 - game.Workspace.Part.SurfaceSelection.Adornee = ("Part"):1: bad argument #3 to 'Adornee' (Object expected, got string)
13:57:04.883 - Script 'game.Workspace.Part.SurfaceSelection.Adornee = ("Part")', Line 1
13:57:04.885 - Stack End

how do I edit object values??!! thanks for reading!

The Adornee property is a reference to a particular object.

"Part" isn't specific enough -- there could be lots of objects named "Part".

Example:

obj.Adornee = workspace.Part

The same sort of expression that you could edit properties of, e.g.,

mypart = game.Workspace.Brick

mypart.Transparency = 0.5

should be what you use as Object values:

something.Adornee = game.Workspace.Brick
something.Adornee.Transparency = 0.5
