How would I go about making certain objects appear at the same and certain time?

Edited 7 years ago

What I am trying to do is if two or more objects hold the same 'value' (seconds), they should appear, or in this case, come down at the same `time'. I am almost happy with the result but it is not quite there, yet. Both the module and localscripts are provided below

ModuleScript

001--Module: Map_Encoded
002--This is in the module. I provided 100 objects as my module holds more than 1,000
003return {--[[
004     Position,  Seconds]]

I do have an old method way of doing this but that method is inefficient, performance wise. Showing another method would be nice as this was the only thing I could think of.

Do you not know what 255/255 is? You should know, it is not necessary. Do you know what Color3.fromRGB is? hiimgoodpack 2009 — 7y

They both work. It's really just developer preference Thundermaker300 554 — 7y

How would I go about making certain objects appear at the same and certain time?
