Schedules a function to be executed after delayTime seconds have passed, without yielding the current thread. This function allows multiple Lua threads to be executed in parallel from the same stack. The delay will have a minimum duration of 29 milliseconds, but this minimum may be higher depending on the target framerate and various throttling conditions. If the delayTime parameter is not specified, the minimum duration will be used.

Returns the DebuggerManager class, which acts as an interface for Roblox’s Lua debugger feature.

Returns how much time has elapsed since the current instance of Roblox was started.
In Roblox Studio, this begins counting up from the moment Roblox Studio starts running, not just when opening a place.

• RbxGui
• RbxUtility
• RbxStamper

Returns the PluginManager which is a deprecated singleton that was previously required to create plugins. It still has applicable uses, such as if you need to create a Plugin object from Roblox Studio’s command bar.

Prints Current identity is [ID] to the output, where [ID] corresponds to the current thread’s security context level.

Runs the supplied ModuleScript if it has not been run already, and returns what the ModuleScript returned (in both cases).

If the ModuleScript the user wants to use has been uploaded to Roblox (with the instance’s name being ‘MainModule’), it can be loaded by using the require function on the asset ID of the ModuleScript, though only on the server.

Returns the GlobalSettings object, which can be used to access the settings objects that are used in Roblox Studio’s settings menu.

Runs the specified callback function in a separate thread, without yielding the current thread.
The function will be executed the next time Roblox’s Task Scheduler runs an update cycle. This delay will take at least 29 milliseconds but can arbitrarily take longer, depending on the target framerate and various throttling conditions.
The callback function is invoked with two arguments:

1. The first being the amount of time which elapsed from when spawn was called to when the function was invoked
2. The second being equivalent to elapsedTime() or roughly how long the engine has been running

spawn(print)
--> 0.0079617658390703 451.55683163643

Returns the Stats service.
It is preferred that developers use ServiceProvider/GetService to retrieve it instead.

Returns how much time has elapsed, in seconds, since the UNIX epoch, on the current local session’s computer.
The UNIX epoch is represented by the date January 1st, 1970.

Returns the amount of time, in seconds, that has elapsed since the current game instance started running.
If the current game instance is not running, this will be 0.

Returns the type of the object specified, as a string.
This function is more accurate than Lua’s native type function, as it does not denote Roblox-specific types as userdata.

Returns the UserSettings object, which is used to read information from the current user’s game menu settings.

Returns the current version of Roblox as a string. The integers in the version string are separated by periods, and each integers represent the following, in order:

Generation - The current generation of the application shell that is hosting the client.
Version - The current release version of Roblox.
Patch - The current patch number for this version of Roblox.
Commit - The ID of the last internal commit that was accepted into this version of the client.

Yields the current thread until the specified amount of seconds have elapsed.
The delay will have a minimum duration of 29 milliseconds, but this minimum may be higher depending on the target framerate and various throttling conditions. If the seconds parameter is not specified, the minimum duration will be used.
This function returns:

• Actual time yielded (in seconds)
• Total time since the software was initialized (in seconds)

Behaves identically to Lua’s print function, except the output is styled as a warning, with yellow text and a timestamp.
This function accepts any number of arguments, and will attempt to convert them into strings which will then be joined together with spaces between them.

A reference to the DataType/Enums datatype, which stores all of the available enums that can be used on Roblox.

A reference to the DataModel, which is the root Instance of Roblox’s parent/child hierarchy.

A reference to the Plugin object that represents the plugin being ran from this Script.
This reference only exists in the context where a script is executed as a plugin.

A table that is shared across all scripts that share the same execution context level.
This serves the exact same purpose as _G.

A reference to the script object that is executing the code you are writing.
It can be either a Script, a LocalScript, or a ModuleScript (and sometimes a CoreScript)
This variable is not available when executing code from Roblox Studio’s command bar.

A reference to the Workspace service, which contains all of the physical components of a Roblox world.
