PostSubject: while true do (loop script)   February 5th 2011, 7:26 pm

While true do states that while the script(s) are true, it repeatedly redoes the script. A basic script with while true do would be:
Code:
while true do
print ("Winnnnnnnnnnnnn!")
end

To loopkill in ROBLOX, the script would be:
Code:
while true do
game.Workspace.Player.Head:Remove() -- replace "Player" with any name
end

To loop anchor, the script would be:
Code:
while true do
game.Workspace.Player.Torso.Anchored = true -- replace "Player" with any name
end

Note that if you loopkill everyone a lot, they'll call you a noob or you'll have a bad reputation. To make a temporary loopkill script (might work):
Code:
while true do
a = game.Workspace.Player -- "a" is a variable
[a].Head:Remove() -- replace "Player" with any name
wait (5)
[a] = game.Lighting -- for a certain reason
end

Send me a message if there is any mistakes with these scripts.

this is actually a while function, you do not have to use true for the restraint.

Slayer is correct, the while loop does not require a literal condition of true. Also, all of those "scripts" except for the last one would crash your game. The last one would error.

every continueus loop should have a wait() in it to stop the game crashing.
