For example, if I did this:
local test = game.Workspace.Test
for i = 1, 10 do
if test.Touched then
break
end
end
Is that possible to do?
Or is break just for while loops?
Just wanted to be sure whether you can do it or not, or if it's just not recommended to do it in your code?
Yes, you can use break in any loop, although I'm not sure you can do if part.Touched then in any script.
repeat print"this will only print once" break until nil
Because we break the loop here, it will only go once.
for q=1,10 do
print(q) --this will print '1' and only '1'
break
end
while true do
print"once again, only prints once"
break
end
break can be used in a plethora of ways, to achieve a variety of different results.
Thank you so much for the information!

break works in all loops
Oh ok, wanted to make sure. Thanks!
I actually tested break out on a repeat loop on the command line to see if it worked, you could have easily done the same.
I know, I just thought about it :p It's just that this script of mine that doesn't seem to be breaking out of a for loop.
