hey, i want to send "W" to a function through the use of heartbeat() and it says this:
17:23:19.661 - Attempt to connect failed: Passed value is not a function
and this:
17:23:20.411 - attempt to call a nil value (x46)
this is my code:
local function rotatePart(direction)
if direction then
print("W")
end
end
if shifting == true then
heartBeat1 = runService.Heartbeat:Connect(rotatePart("W"))
end
i have a bunch of conditions surrounding this code but the problem only appears when trying to pass the argument "W" to the above function.

The :Connect() method takes a callback argument; is a function that is called by the signal, and fed arguments if information is supplied from the event. You’re trying to call a function in the callback argument, which is what’s causing your error. Pass the function name without parentheses.
You cannot provide an argument either, as the calling of the given function isn’t handled by you, you can optionally create a separate function which will call upon rotatePart with the arguments you desire.
thank you : D
