findgc

Scans all game VMs for tables containing the given string key (or a list of keys), optionally matching a specific string value. Returns table proxies you can index directly. Returns nil, "no game lua state" when no state is found.

Syntax

findgc(key | keys: any) -> table

Parameters

Returns

Description

findgc is part of the GC & memory scanning library. GC helpers read the game's Luau heap from outside the process and can inspect or control the collector.

The call is read-only: it resolves the current value when invoked and does not change the underlying state.

The aliases findgc(key, value), findgc(nil, value) resolve to the same implementation.

Example

local hits = findgc("Leaderstats", "Cash")
for _, tbl in ipairs(hits) do
    print(tbl)
end

Notes

• Aliases: findgc(key, value), findgc(nil, value).
• GC results depend on the live game heap and collector state.
