How to recognize a model with spaces?
My script can't recognize a model with spaces in its name.
How can I fix this?
Thank you.

I assume you mean "access", not recognize, in which case you'll need to use bracket access notation:
workspace["Part name With Spaces!"]
Inside the brackets can be anything that eventually evaluates to be a string (i.e. a function call or a concatenation), which is incredibly useful:
local index = 5 workspace.Rooms["Room:" .. index]

A point I like to make is that this works with normal names, too, and that it's also how `.` works (`workspace.Rooms` is the same as `workspace["Rooms"]`) BlueTaslem 18071 — 10y

You could also say it as a string, like or playerName == "Stealth Pilot" That works too, and it's a bit less messy than brackets all over if you're making a really long script

This is actually grossy inefficient compared to directly accessing the Object using the brackets. adark 5487 — 10y
