How to print the full location of a Script/Part?
Say if I have a script within a Part, that's in workspace, the script would print: "Workspace>Part>Script". I know how to use concatenation to print that, but I can't figure out how to make the script keep going up a Parent, without causing an error. Any tips?

I've tried setting up a function, that would keep adding the Parent's name to a Table, if the name isn't "Place2", but it would always overflow for some reason. I can't provide the script, since the overflow crashed my studio. Shawnyg 4330 — 9y

You are looking for the GetFullName method
Example:
print(workspace.Camera:GetFullName()) -- returns: Workspace.Camera

@Lucas, No, in studio, how an object would be highlighted in the Explorer. @Iaz, Thanks, but that's not what I was looking for Shawnyg 4330 — 9y
