Is there an easy way to script 48 different text buttons into one call function in a script?
I know I'm supposed to provide a code, but I'm unsure on this one. I have 48 text buttons all of which I want to do similar code. Whenever I click any of them, I want them to run the same function. Is there an easy way to do this without having to write out 48 different calls?
Thanks.

There actually is a pretty simple way of doing this with a loop. If they all have the same parent, then you could easily just do it this way:
1 | Children=script.Parent:GetChildren() |
2 |
3 | for _,Child in pairs(Children) do --Goes through and assigns the function to all of them. |
4 | if Child:IsA("TextButton") then |
5 | Child.MouseButton1Click:connect(function() |
6 | --Code here for function |
7 | end) |
8 | end |
9 | end |
Anyways, this would be the simplest way of doing it. Another way however if they don't have the same parent would be to do this:
1 | Children={} --Make a table of ALL of the Textbuttons here |
2 |
3 | for _,Child in pairs(Children) do --Pretty much the same from here |
4 | if Child:IsA("TextButton") then |
5 | Child.MouseButton1Click:connect(function() |
6 | --Code here for function |
7 | end) |
8 | end |
9 | end |
Anyways, I hope this helped you out a bit. If you have any further problems/questions, please leave a comment below, and I'll see what I can do :P
