Hey, so I'm making a very complicated script with a lot of functions, but always something has to execute after that function, and instead of using wait() , I wanted to know if is there a better way to detect when a function is over executing in order to do something else, in the exact time that the function stopped?

How to detect when a function is over?

The code below a function call won't run until the function finishes. The only exception is when you use spawn().
local function foo()
local i = 0
while i < 10000 do
i = i + 1
end
print(i)
end
foo()
print"this won't print until foo finishes running"

Functions can be called with string "" or table {} constructors, while passing that data to the function call as the first argument.

Ya this is syntactic sugar for a function call ^ but isn't so sweet as Lua PIL says it is
