Start Effect

You can start your effect on server by requiring the module and calling .new() on your effect class. After that, you will need to use a special method of server proxy called :Start() to specify what players you're starting effect for:

Luau

somewhere.lua

local myEffect = require(path.to.effect)
local effect = myEffect.new(10):Start(game.Players:GetPlayers()) -- start your effect for all players

TypeScript

somewhere.ts

import { myEffect } from "./myEffect";
import { Players } from "@rbxts/services";

const effect = new myEffect(10).Start(Players.GetPlayers()); // start your effect for all players

After you called :Start() effect will start and :OnStart() will be called for provided players. After :OnStart() is finished executing effect will be destroyed automatically. However, there are some important rules that can change this behavior and you need to know about. They're described in the next page.
