How to find out is a part has no children?

Asked by

I am trying to make an if statement, where the argument is that a part has no children Ex:

if (part has no children) then (insert code here)

How would I attempt this?

You would get a table of the children of that part and see if there are 0 values in that table, so then you can execute your code

local Part = game.Workspace.Part -- Target Part
local Child = Part:GetChildren() --Storing Table into var

if #Child == 0 then
    --Execute code
end

This should work (I haven't tested it, though)

`````` for _, v in ipairs (part:GetChildren()) do if v then print("There is a child!") if not v then print("There is no child") end ```````````
