Why are they removing it? All it's doing is breaking people's stuff...

Nick, I believe you could still use camelCase, eg;

print(workspace.Part.className) still works.. I think.

Yeah, I know. I don't see why ROBLOX doesn't just keep camelCase. All they did was over complicate things.

If they changed it, it would break a lot of scripts. Then again, it's not that hard to change your scripts from having 'formFactor' to having 'FormFactor'.

"it's not that hard to change your scripts"

What if someone made a great game, quit three years ago, and then their awesome game breaks.

There's already a FormFactor property

but normal scripts don't have a high enough security level to access it.

If their awesome game is from three years ago, I don't see how it can be awesome. It will NECESSARILY be outdated.

Like I stated, roblox still allows camelCase, but they are changing names of properties to PascalCase

What they should do is just make it completely case indifferent.
That would be a solution.
Not spamming people's output for using the standard that has existed for the last few years and is the general standard for programming.

Well, I guess then that game is part of history now.

FormFactor is accessible, I access it all the time instead of formFactor...

Is there a wiki page with all deprecated functions, objects, and the like on it?
