How can I clone a script into every single part?

local allObjects = game.Workspace:GetChildren()
local myScript = game.Workspace.myScript
for _, object in pairs(allObjects) do
if object:IsA("Part") or object:IsA("Model") then
local partScript = myScript:Clone()
partScript.Parent = object
end
end
"game.Workspace:GetChildren()" returns a table of all the objects. Then in the loop, you check if it is a part or model. If it is, clone your script and set the parent to the part.
You can also set the workspace to listen for a "ChildAdded" event and call a function to assign the script to every new part added.
script = //script -- specify(?) the script, i don't know the proper term
for i,v in pairs(workspace:GetDescendants()) do
if v:IsA("Part") then
script:Clone().Parent = v
end
end)
That's the general idea, by using the for i,v in pairs() loop.
:GetDescendants() would get every single instances, models, scripts, lights, everything. So; you need to specify what the script would get cloned into with :IsA()
I'd imagine that your "every single part" is not necessarily just "part(s)", it might be a whole building, I don't know what you're thinking.
if that's the case, you might want to do
if v:IsA("BasePart") or v:IsA("UnionOperation") then
BasePart would select all the "special" parts, the cornerwedgepart, wedgepart, and such.
Well, everything else is pretty much up to your creativity and self-explanatory.
