RBXScriptConnection

The RBXScriptConnection data type is a special object returned by the Connect() method of an event (RBXScriptSignal). This is used primarily to disconnect a listener from an RBXScriptSignal.

local part = Instance.new("Part")
-- Store reference to the RBXScriptConnection so it can be disconnected later
local connection : RBXScriptConnection = part.Touched:Connect(function(otherPart)
    print("Hello world!")
end)
-- Disconnect when the connection is no longer needed
connection:Disconnect()

Properties

RBXScriptConnection.Connected

Describes whether or not the connection is still alive. This becomes false if Disconnect() is called.

Methods

RBXScriptConnection:Disconnect

Disconnects the connection from the event.
