Module script not working?
I don't know why this isn't working, i'm trying to make the loop start when game is loaded.
local module = {}
local isLoaded = false
module.GameLoop = function()
while wait() do
if game:IsLoaded() == true then
isLoaded = true
print('Hello World')
end
end
end
module.GameLoop()
return module

ModuleScripts do not run on their own. You could notice this by seeing that ModuleScripts do not have the disabled property of a Script and LocalScript. You can make a ModuleScript work by using the require function. Here's an example:
--In ModuleScript in workspace
local module = {}
module.TestFunc = function()
print("Hello from inside a ModuleScript!")
end
return module
--In Script in ServerScriptStorage local mod = require(workspace.ModuleScriptName) mod.TestFunc() --> "Hello from inside a ModuleScript!"
Here is a good resource to use when learning about ModuleScripts.
If I helped, please accept me as an answer, then we both get Reputation Points! :)

Thanks I already understand everything else about module scripts, I actually had an idea about the module script not working because it was being called in the same script but I didn't know about it very clearly. LifeInDevelopment 364 — 8y

ModuleScript's do not run by themselves. You must make it run using a ServerScript or LocalScript. I'd recommend looking at this wiki article before you go on with ModuleScripts.
