mute global function warn

[echo silo]

i have a table of stuff where for each entry a function is called but since in that function i gotta use that table i must make it global, the problem is, when i call it, it shows a warn, and since its a long list there are MANY warns, is there any workaround for this
example:

local tab = {
something = dosomething(), --warns
othersomething = dosomething() --warns
}

function dosomething()
 return table.insert(tab, "something")
end

but what is the warn?

[echo silo]

unknown global [function name]

its weird cuz the formatter suggests it while typing

[fickle trout]

it's probably because the function is defined below where it's used

[echo silo]

yeah, it is, but i need to define it below the table cuz the function uses it

but i think ill just make the table global

and put the function above it

for just 1 warn

[fickle trout]

there's no way to get rid of it

it's there for a reason

it's just bad structure

well technically you could disable warnings in the studio settings

but that doesn't make it any better

why don't you just make it a method of the table

[echo silo]

cuz its not a method that is supposed to be used by the person who's using the module

then mark it as private
