# Instance Functions This page contains a list of all instance functions used by Powerlang. Instance functions are called like `instance:FunctionName(functionArgs)`. | Name | Description | | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | | `MakeJoints()` | Creates joints between connected parts in a model. | | `BreakJoints()` | Breaks all the joints connected to the parts in a model. | | `SetNetworkOwner(player: Player?)` | Sets the network owner of the part to a specific player. | | `IsTouching(part: BasePart) -> bool` | Returns true if the part is currently touching another part. | | `GetTouchingParts() -> table` | Returns a table of parts currently touching the part. | | `GetConnectedParts() -> table` | Returns a table of parts physically connected to the part. | | `SetPartPhysicalProperties(Elasticity, Friction, Density, ElasticityWeight, FrictionWeight)` | Sets the physical properties of the part, like density or friction. | | `GetPartPhysicalProperties() -> PhysicalProperties` | Gets the current physical properties of the part. | | `FireRocketPropulsion()` | Fires the rocket propulsion towards a target. | | `AbortRocketPropulsion()` | Stops the rocket propulsion. | | `AssignCollisionGroup(groupName: string)` | Assigns the part to a specific collision group. | | `MoveModelTo(position: Vector3)` | Moves a model to a specific position. | | `SetModelPrimaryPartCFrame(cframe: CFrame)` | Sets the CFrame of the primary part of the model. | | `GetModelBoundingBox() -> (CFrame, Vector3)` | Returns the CFrame and size of the model's bounding box. | | `PlaySound()` | Plays a sound instance. | | `StopSound()` | Stops a sound instance. | | `PauseSound()` | Pauses a sound instance. | | `ResumeSound()` | Resumes a paused sound instance. | | `TextBoxCaptureFocus()` | Captures the keyboard focus on a text box. | | `TextBoxReleaseFocus()` | Releases the keyboard focus from a text box. | | `GetPlayersOnTeam(team: Team) -> table` | Returns a table of players on the specified team. | | `TeleportToPlace(placeId: int)` | Teleports the player to a specified place and spawn point. | | `KickPlayer(reason: string?)` | Kicks the player from the game with an optional reason. | | `GetPlayerFromCharacter(character: Model) -> Player?` | Returns the player associated with the given character model. | | `HasBadge(badgeId: int) -> bool` | Checks if a player has a specific badge. | | `GiveBadge(badgeId: int)` | Awards a badge to a player. | | `HasGamepass(gamepassId: int) -> bool` | Checks if a player owns a specific game pass. | | `MutePlayer()` | Mutes a player in the game. | | `BanPlayer()` | Bans a player from the game. | | `CheckToolEquipped() -> bool` | Returns true if the player has the specified tool equipped. | | `TakeDamage(amount: number)` | Applies damage to a humanoid. | | `HumanoidMoveTo(position: Vector3)` | Moves the humanoid to a specific position or part. | | `ChangeHumanoidState(state: HumanoidStateType)` | Changes the humanoid's state to a specific state. | | `GetHumanoidState() -> HumanoidStateType` | Gets the current state of the humanoid. | | `TeleportPlayerToPosition(position: Vector3)` | Teleports the player to a specific position. | | `LoadCharacter()` | Reloads the player's character. | | `GetPartDirection() -> Vector3` | Returns the direction the part is facing as a `Vector3`. | | `DisconnectEvent()` | Disconnects an event connection. | | `IsConnected() -> bool` | Returns true if the event connection is still active. | | `Clone() -> Instance` | Creates a copy of the instance. | | `Destroy()` | Permanently removes the instance from the game. | | `FindFirstChild(childName: string, recursive: bool) -> Instance?` | Finds the first child with a given name in an instance. If `recursive` is true, it searches descendants. | | `FindFirstChildOfClass(className: string) -> Instance?` | Finds the first child with a given class name in an instance. | | `FindFirstChildWhichIsA(className: string) -> Instance?` | Finds the first child that is of a specific class. | | `GetChildren() -> table` | Returns a table of all the direct children of the instance. | | `GetDescendants() -> table` | Returns a table of all descendants of the instance. | | `IsA(className: string) -> bool` | Returns true if the instance is of the given class or inherits from it. | | `IsAncestorOf(descendant: Instance) -> bool` | Returns true if the instance is an ancestor of the given descendant. | | `IsDescendantOf(ancestor: Instance) -> bool` | Returns true if the instance is a descendant of the given ancestor. | | `WaitForChild(childName: string, timeout: number?) -> Instance?` | Waits for a child with the given name to be added, or returns `nil` if it times out. | | `FireServer(...)` | Sends a remote event to the server from the client. | | `FireClient(player: Player, ...)` | Sends a remote event to a specific player from the server. | | `Fire(...)` | Fires a custom signal event. | | `Invoke(...) -> any` | Calls a custom function and returns the result. | | `InvokeServer(...) -> any` | Invokes a remote function on the server from the client and returns the result. | | `InvokeClient(player: Player, ...) -> any` | Invokes a remote function on a specific player from the server and returns the result. |
