Can anyone explain why random tables are appearing in this code?
Good morning fellow (much better),scripters! Its going great but i have a problem....
I'm writing a piece of code which is not working at one point! I want to try and make it post a part's name so i can get its parent - but instead it shows a table the output is literally table: 34F44CB8... Can anyone explain this to me?
-goku:D
local player = game.Players.LocalPlayer
local desaa = false
punchanimation = Instance.new("Animation")
punchanimation.AnimationId = "http://www.roblox.com/Asset?ID=2497648378"
local ipit = game:GetService("UserInputService")
local char = game.Workspace:WaitForChild(player.Name)
ipit.InputBegan:Connect(function(input)
if input.KeyCode == Enum.KeyCode.E and desaa == false then
desaa = true
local fadfa = char.Humanoid:LoadAnimation(punchanimation)
fadfa:Play()
wait(1.9)
local touched = char.RightHand:GetTouchingParts() --table parts here
print(touched)
desaa = false
end
end)

That table: 34F44CB8... is just the tables memory address. Attempting to directly print a table, function or thread will print the memory address. The good thing is you can loop through that table, and get the parts with ease.
for _, part in next, char.RightHand:GetTouchingParts() do
-- 'part' will be a different touching part after each cycle.
print(part)
end
What I am doing is looping through the touching parts, part will be a different part for each cycle. It loops for however many parts their are in the table returned by GetTouchingParts, for example if 3 parts were touching the loop would iterate 3 times. I then print the part and from there you can do what is necessary.
