Does anyone know what the ReceiveAge property of the BasePart object is? I just found out about it. All I know right now about it is that it is hidden and read-only.

Probably something that would be fun to play with. Try figuring it out!

How are we supposed to play with a property that is read-only?

It probably just is the amount of ticks its been in the active game, or something. Like workspace has a DistributedGameTime property, and this one just shows how long the part has been in a game. If that's the case, then we could stop players from adding any new parts to the game...

It doesn't seem to alter as time passes either...

> while wait(3) do print(workspace.Base.ReceiveAge) end
-1.#IND
Maze created in 0.36398267745972 seconds
-1.#IND
-1.#IND
-1.#IND
-1.#IND
-1.#IND
ect, ect.

I even tried running the game, and it still didn't change. It's probably some whatchamacalit that Sorcus is making 'come soon', so we'd best ignore it...

print(Workspace.Part.ReceiveAge == 1 or Workspace.Part.ReceiveAge > 1 or Workspace.Part.ReceiveAge < 1)

> false

No, it acts as a place to point people to if they ask for errors. Tell them they forgot to do something to ReceiveAge.

If that's somehow implemented in real life, scientists will use it on Planet Earth and find out that it gives out the number '6000' instead of '4.54E9'

I try to take the work off of Emess sometimes. As she is only a demi-god, she requires the same things as mere mortals, so she needs sleep.
