A Script That Removes An Object?
I've been editing and messing with a slime game recently. This is the script that creates the "IsSlime" object. I would like to make a gui, that when clicked asks if they would like to reset (remove) their current slime. I have no idea where to start.
(Create script.)
while true do
wait(1)
if script.Parent.Debounce.Value == true then
local Name = script.Parent.Turner.Value
local W = game.Workspace:GetChildren()
local HasSlime = false
for i = 1, #W do
if W[i]:findFirstChild("IsSlime") ~= nil then
if W[i].Owner.Value == Name then
HasSlime = true
end
end
end
if HasSlime == false then
script.Parent.Motor.BottomSurfaceInput = "Constant"
wait(0.5)
local Slime = game.Lighting["No-name"]:clone()
Slime.Owner.Value = Name
Slime.Head.CFrame = CFrame.new(script.Parent.Parent.Faucet.Spout.Position) * CFrame.new(0, -1, 0)
Slime.Head.Velocity = Vector3.new(0, 0, 0)
Slime.Parent = game.Workspace
Slime.Head.BrickColor = BrickColor.Random()
Slime.Humanoid.MaxHealth = 10
Slime.Humanoid.Health = 10
local materials = {"Plastic", "Brick", "Cobblestone", "Concrete", "CorrodedMetal", "DiamondPlate", "Fabric", "Foil", "Granite", "Grass", "Ice", "Marble", "Metal", "Pebble", "Sand", "Slate", "SmoothPlastic", "Wood", "WoodPlanks"}
local matpick = math.random(1, 19)
Slime.Head.Material = materials[matpick]
local Chance = math.random(1, 20)
if Chance == 20 then
Slime.Head.Reflectance = 0.4
Slime.Material = "Plastic"
end
if game.Players:findFirstChild(script.Parent.Turner.Value) ~= nil then
if game.Players:findFirstChild(script.Parent.Turner.Value):IsInGroup(467010) == true then
local M = Instance.new("Model")
M.Name = "VIP"
M.Parent = Slime
end
end
game.Lighting.PlantTip:clone().Parent = game.Players:findFirstChild(script.Parent.Turner.Value).PlayerGui
wait(1)
script.Parent.Motor.BottomSurfaceInput = "NoInput"
end
script.Parent.Debounce.Value = false
end
end

To remove an object, you can use the method remove
Part:remove() --This is the same as Part.Parent = nil
Both of the examples above SHOULD NOT BE USED. They are deprecated. Remove has been replaced with Destroy.
Remove changes the part's parent to nil, meaning that you can always retrieve it.
Part:remove() Part.Anchored = false --Even after the object is removed you can still edit it Part.Parent = workspace
When you use remove you make little "zombies"(read this article.) because the objects are still there you just cannot SEE them. When you use Destroy however, it will PERMANENTLY delete them.
Part:Destroy()
Now, TheAlphaStigma asked a clever question, He used the following script:
local p = Instance.new("Part", workspace)
p:Destroy()
print(p) --This should of made an error
Well, that doesn't mean that destroy doesn't work, it does completely delete it. Look, unlike the remove method, If you do the following:
Part:Destroy() Part.Anchored = false Part.Parent = workspace --Error Error Error; Part Does not exist.
There are other ways to delete items, the AddItem is a way to delete stuff, you must be asking, "How is that possible?" AddItem adds the part into Debris, Debris basically means trash and etc. AddItem is part of the Debris Service.
local debris = game:GetService("Debris") --This is how you reach the debris service.
debris:AddItem(Part, 3) --What to delete, how long we wait before we delete it.
ClearAllChildren is dangerous if you use it on workspace. It can make your game get REKT. It deletes all the characters and everything. ClearAllChildren deletes everything INSIDE of an object, not the model itself.
Model:ClearAllChildren() --If there is a part inside of the model, the part will get deleted. The model will not.
Hope it helps!
