Is there a way you can 'reverse' a bool?
What I mean by that, is, can you basically get false from a true and a true from a false in one line? I can make a function to do it, but I'm lazy, and I would have to do it for every script.
E.G;
local boolVal = false
while wait() do
boolVal = bool.reverse(boolVal)
print(boolVal)
end
-- would spam 'true false true false true false' etc. in output
Thank you!

Not!
There's a nifty logical operator called not (also known as an inverter, or "not" gate), which inverts any boolean value provided (in the case of Lua however, you can also use this operator on non-boolean values since anything that exists is evaluated as true). Here's an example:
print(not true) -- > false print(not false) -- > true print(not not true) -- > true
And as mentioned above, Lua would also support operations like this done on other data types as well:
print(not nil) -- > true (nil doesn't exist, which evaluates to false in this operation, then returns true once inverted) print(not 1) -- > false (the number 1 exist, which evaluates to true, which is then inverted) print(not "something") -- > false (same concept as above)
I also have a video on this, if you'd like to check it out here.
Well, it's pretty simple.
local boolVal = false
while wait() do
if boolVal then
boolVal = false
elseif not boolVal then
boolVal = true
end
It just goes through to check which one it is, and if its not that one, then make it that one, and since it's looping, in theory, should just swap each time.
- Sorry, just noticed you said in one line. Now, I have no idea for you there. I'm a mere beginner.
