if THIS or THAT then
^Let's look at the statement above. What I'm wondering is if the condition of "THIS" is met, will it still read to check if it meets "THAT" or will it just skip over it?
I've used some languages where it will ignore anything past or if it meets the first condition, was wondering how it worked on here. I strangely can't find any documentation telling me. |

Treat it as a conditional statement if x doesn't exist but y exists then do func but if x and y don't exist end

If I had to guess it would ignore the second statement. Interesting question, how would you test it? I've seen variables being assigned like
Var = NumberVar or 0 --Or something like that |

It skips over it, you can also easily test this:
print(true or workspace.THIS_OBJECT_DOESNT_EXIST) > true
print(false or workspace.THIS_OBJECT_DOESNT_EXIST) > should throw an error |

"I've seen variables being assigned like

Var = statement or something
is basicly a shorter version of
if statement == true then
Var = something
end
You can also do
Var = statement1 and something1 or statement3 and statement4 and something2 or something3
which is basicly the same as
if statement1 == true then
Var = something1
elseif statement2 == true and statement3 == true then
Var = something2
else
Var = something3
end

The "or" statement works like the word "or" but the possibility of both being true, still counts as "or" being true. Meaning:
x = 1
y = 0
if x == 1 or y == 1 then -- This statement is "true".
end
--//
x = 1
y = 1
if x == 1 or y == 1 then -- This statement is also "true".
end
--//
x = 1
y = 1
if x == 0 or y == 0 then -- This statement is "false".
end
--//
The "and" statement requires both statements to be true:
x = 1
y = 1
if x == 1 and y == 1 then -- true
end
--//
x = 1
y = 0
if x == 1 and y == 1 then -- false
end
--//
x = 0
y = 0
if x == 1 and y == 1 then -- false
--//

Not really
Var = x.Value or y
If first value is nil then Var would be second value

It could be either.
a = true
a = false
if a == true or b == true then
print("this will print because a is true")
end |

local player = game.Players.LocalPlayer
local char = player.Character or player.CharacterAdded:wait()
if player.Character is not a thing, it will go to the latter. |
