Hi there! So I found a script somewhere in the toolbox and decided to see how it is written. However in the script I saw that some functions are called without parenthesis and I don't get how. Can someone explain? Any help appreciated :)
It is a Module Script that looks something like this:
local module = {}
local function disablePlacement(plane) -- Function 1
if (currentPlane) then
renderConnection:disconnect()
renderConnection = nil
currentPlane = nil
module.currentPlane = nil
currentEvent:Destroy()
currentEvent = nil
if (currentTexture) then
currentTexture:Destroy()
currentTexture = nil
end
for i = 1, #currentObjects do
local object = currentObjects[i]
object.model = nil
currentObjects[i] = nil
end
unbindInputs()
end
end
local function setLoading(plane, isLoading) -- Function 2
if (plane.loading == isLoading) then
return
end
plane.loading = isLoading
if (plane == currentPlane) then
if (isLoading) then
for i = 1, #currentObjects do
setState(currentObjects[i], states.loading)
end
else
for i = 1, #currentObjects do
setState(currentObjects[i], states.neutral, true)
end
obstacleCollision()
end
end
end
module.new = function(base, obstacles, grid)
local plane = {}
plane.base = base
plane.obstacles = obstacles
plane.position = base.Position
plane.size = base.Size
if (math.floor(.5 + plane.size.X/grid) % 2 == 0) then
plane.offsetX = -grid/2
else
plane.offsetX = 0
end
if (math.floor(.5 + plane.size.Z/grid) % 2 == 0) then
plane.offsetZ = -grid/2
else
plane.offsetZ = 0
end
plane.stateEvent = Instance.new("BindableEvent")
plane.stateChanged = plane.stateEvent.Event
plane.grid = grid
plane.enable = enablePlacement
plane.disable = disablePlacement -- Calling function 1 without parenthesis??
plane.rotate = rotate
plane.place = place
plane.setLoading = setLoading -- Calling function 2 without parenthesis??
return plane
end
module.setLoading = setLoading
module.currentPlane = false
return module
NOTE: These are only some parts of the script, not the full version.
Again, any help will be appreciated :)

My question here is that it doesn't? Please explain further
Sorry i see now
