Both of you, stop the double posting.

Even if they suck you can still release them, may be fun. Or what I usually do when a mod of mine isn't very good I still release it but just don't make a public topic for it.

Functions can return values like this:

Code: [Select]

function IsLostInSpaceCool()
  return false
end

Then doing this as a simple example:
if IsLostInSpaceCool() then
  TextPrintString("Yes",1,1)
else
  TextPrintString("No",1,1)
end
-- Would print "no" if run.

You can return any type of value you want from a function by simply using return followed by a value/expression.
Using return makes the function end too and return to the point in the script that the function was called.

Thanks so I would run this in a thread or put this under the repeat line?

The function should probably be declared in global scope (put the function outside of any other function)
and you can call it wherever you want to.

Ah I understand now so use that as a variable so I can get it to turn when I need it excellent thanks for the help will add it to the post. I am actually planning on updating it right now.
