About Tags

Tags are a set of strings which you can use to identify each instance. For example, you may identify an object as "coin". You can do so by adding a tag to the object. One instance can have multiple tags.

Adding tags via Creator

1. Select an Instance, then switch to tags menu in the properties window.
2. Type in tag name text field, then press the + plus icon
3. And there you have the tag! To remove, press the X icon next to the tag.

Adding tags via Script

You can add a tag to an instance by using Instance:AddTag(string) and remove via Instance:RemoveTag(string). For example:

coin:AddTag("interactable")

Using tags

You can check if the object has the tag from the script using the Instance:HasTag(string) function which returns true if the object has the tag. Example usage:

player.Touched:Connect(function(hit: Physical)
    if hit:HasTag("coin") then
        coin += 1
    end
end)
