Could you detail, because I am rubbish at scripting and probably will never get to trying it. |

Does it return everything inside something, even if it's in another model or script or whatever in that thing? Support. :3 Could be easy for searching st00f in models |

Sounds useful, but you could just make easy alternatives. Such as below:
function GetDescendants(obj)
local descendants = {}
function a(b)
for _, v in pairs(b:GetChildren()) do
table.insert(descendants, v)
a(v)
end
end
a(obj)
return descendants
end |

True, but isn't obj:GetDescendants() faster? :3 |

Yeah, but I just suggested that as a good way to cope with the absense of a useful method like that. |

I have a feeling that this would require changing Lua itself. |

GetDescendants gets all descendants.
Obvious method is obvious.
Good day. |
|
|
Wouldn't GetChildren do the same thing?
Or are you trying to go farther than one child down?

Again, obvious method is obvious. GetDescendants gets descendants. This is not GetChildren. (Yes, farther than one child down.) |
|

Just wanted to clarify.

Bergan is true, the LUA language has stayed the same. But support anyways. |

Support. It'd be useful. I'm guessing it'd 'return' a table alike the ':GetChildren()' method?
@Blox,
It's not an acronym...
@Bergan,
No, it'd just be an addition. |

Bergan and Blox, it has not remained the same. Roblox has modified several times. |

Definitely need this

Hello players,
Lua has changed to fit ROBLOX. When it's in it's original state, Lua is not an actual OOP language, but can easily adapt to be one with some modifications. A :GetDescendants() method would not require anything but a simple addition to the Lua API.
