Move myFunction to be above the while loop. Your code is currently trying to call the function before it has been initialized vector3_zero 1056 — 4y

It's more like it never gets initialized. It would work fine if the code was in a different thread. Fifkee 2017 — 4y

The function must be placed before the loop as it has been undefined before the loop was made. In certain cases however, the function placement no longer matters. For example, you can call a function in a function that is undefined before the function.
Will work:
function greetGuys()
hiGuys()
end
function hiGuys()
print("hiGuys")
end
greetGuys()
Will not work:
while true do
wait(1)
foo()
end
function foo()
print("foo")
end
This is because functions don't run the moment they are made like loops are since you have to call the function for it to run.
Your final script:
function myfunction()
print("test")
end
while true do
wait(0.1)
myfunction()
end
