What are these parameters, is there a data store of them?
So, while I was taking a wiki lesson it instructed me to use the parameter "otherPart". I understand what this does but for future reference I'd like to be able to find my own parameters. Is there any place that I can find the parameters like this? Like a data store or something? Thank you!
local healthPack = script.Parent
local healAmount = 30
local function handleTouch(otherPart)
local character = otherPart.Parent
local humanoid = character:FindFirstChild(**Humanoid**)
if humanoid then
local currentHealth = humanoid.Health
local newHealth = currentHealth + healAmount
humanoid.Health = newHealth
end
end
healthPack.Touched:connect(handleTouch)

What kind of data are you trying to store? In the simplest of form, datastore stores a value even when a server has been shut down. "otherPart" I am pretty sure is just an example. As script.Parent.Touched:Connect(function(otherPart() would make a function. You could call it whatever you want. otherPart is just a name of a function, and in this case, a variable. ZenTGE 4 — 6y

OK let me rephrase this because I didn't word it too well. I understand it's a function but I'm wondering where I can find that function and other variable functions. Beastlance 22 — 6y
