ROBLOX Should have it where when you're about to run the game, then it restarts(like when you press the red back arrow) and displays a ROBLOX Message saying something along the lines of, "Please go back and put a wait in a script." Anyone agree?

For the people who don't and won't agree: You won't because you script/program for your life... -_-.

At least make it freeze for 5 seconds than cancels out the operation like most other game engines (e.g Unity3D) like if you accidentically put the while true do then it freezes your game for 5 seconds then in the output would be saying "Mass Intervals Reached, cancelled operation" as most other game engines usually warn us about that.

OP,

You're an idiot. One it's called a while loop not a while true do loop. Second you can just add a wait, change your condition or have a different kind of forever loop. You can have a forever repeat, an infinity for loop. But agreeing to this is just plain stupid.

And you're saying if you don't agree you can't script? Teh, I don't agree, and I've been working with Lua for about a year now buddy. Oh yeah, at least I call my loops right. While true do loop. What a fail.

Any kind of infinite loop without a wait() is capable of freezing your game, as far as I can tell.

miz, you're the idiot, a while loop can have while wait() do or while true do, I called it while true do loop because that's the loop to freeze your work.

SlyCat, miz is correct. It is called a while loop, not a while true do loop. true is simply the condition. Anyway, this would be convenient, but there are a lot more important updates that should take priority.

Ele agreed, only reason I called it while true do loop was because I was in a rush, it was like 2:00AM, I was pretty dang tired... Wasn't thinking, and I know it's a while loop, repeat loop, for loop. I know that, miz is just stupid enough to get mad at a simple mistake.

@Sly - Eh, forgive him. He probably wasn't mad. He just has OCD. :)

"while wait() do or while true do"

They're the same thing in different words.

While loops crash on you?
Solution: Add a wait in the loop.
