getactors() / getactorthreads() / get_actor_threads()
getactors lists Actor instances; getactorthreads returns threads bound to actors.
Syntax
getactors() -> {Instance}
getactorthreads() -> {thread}Parameters
No parameters.
Returns
| Type | Description |
|---|---|
{Instance} | Actor instances (getactors). |
{thread} | Live threads carrying an actor reference (getactorthreads). |
Description
getactors walks game descendants and collects Actor instances.
Logic change: getactorthreads no longer aliases getactors. It walks the GC heap and returns thread objects whose extra space references an Actor, excluding ordinary threads. The actor's own thread and task.spawn/task.defer children are included when they carry the actor.
Example
local actor = Instance.new("Actor")
actor.Parent = workspace
runonactor(actor, "")
for _, thread in getactorthreads() do print(typeof(thread)) end
