Returns

Name	Type	Description
`closure`	`function \| nil`	Loaded Lua closure, or nil when no usable bytecode is available or the Luau loader fails.

Description

Loads the stored bytecode for a supported Roblox script Instance and returns it as a Lua closure. Returns nil when usable bytecode is not available.

Call it with 1 parameter(s): script. The argument table explains which values are required and which ones only refine the behavior.

It returns closure (function | nil). Use the returns table to separate successful values from nil results and recoverable errors.

Example

Load a function from a supported Roblox script Instance when bytecode is available.

local targetScript

for _, descendant in ipairs(game:GetDescendants()) do
    if descendant:IsA("LuaSourceContainer") then
        targetScript = descendant
        break
    end
end

if targetScript then
    local closure = getscriptclosure(targetScript)
    print(closure)
end
