remove_method_call

unreleased

This rule converts function calls that use the colon syntax (:) to function calls using dot notation (.).

This rule only transforms method calls where the prefix is an identifier. Other method calls using field access, index access or function call prefixes are left unchanged.

Examples

obj:method()

obj.method(obj)

game:GetService('RunService')

game.GetService(game,'RunService')

return player:LoadCharacter()

return player.LoadCharacter(player)

Input	Output
`obj:method()`	`obj.method(obj)`
`game:GetService('RunService')`	`game.GetService(game,'RunService')`
`return player:LoadCharacter()`	`return player.LoadCharacter(player)`
