[Updated Again]Need help with a random generator script [?]
I want to make a script that after you touch a block, it takes a random model from the lighting and puts it 56 blocks ahead of the model that the block you stepped on is in (I think I did this horribly wrong)
Obbys = {"Spin Tube","Ice Path","Laser1"}
function Cool()
local Obby = game.Lighting:FindFirstChild(Obbys[math.random(1,3)])
local Boo = Obby:Clone()
Boo.Parent = game.Workspace
Boo:MakeJoints()
Boo.Position = script.Parent.BaseArea.Position + Vector3.new(56,0,0)
script:Destroy()
end
script.Parent.Touched:connect(Cool)
No errors works fine just I cant figure out how to move the models since they don't have a position property

In line 7: That is the incorrect way of inserting value into a table.
InfO = {"Spin Tube","IcePath","Laser1"}
items = {}
for i=1,#InfO do
local item = game.Lighting:findFirstChild(InfO[i])
if item ~= nil then
table.insert(items, i,#InfO[i])
else
print(InfO[i], " doesn't exist")
end
end
function chooseInfO()
return items[math.random(#items)]
end
function AddInfO()
local m = chooseInfO():Clone()--Clone() should alway have a Capital "C"
m.Parent = game.Workspace
m:MakeJoints()--Same for this.
m.Position = script.Parent.Parent.Position + Vector3.new(56,0,0)
end
script.Parent.Touched:connect(AddInfO)

Well, the best way for you would be to use the function :SetPrimaryPartCFrame(0, 0, 0). You'd simply have to set the PrimaryPart before which could be done like this:
Obbys = {"Spin Tube","Ice Path","Laser1"}
function Cool()
local Obby = game.Lighting:FindFirstChild(Obbys[math.random(1,3)])
local Boo = Obby:Clone()
Boo.Parent = game.Workspace
Boo:MakeJoints()
Boo.PrimaryPart = math.random(1, #Boo:GetChildren())
Boo:SetPrimaryPartCFrame(script.Parent.BaseArea.CFrame+ CFrame.new(56,0,0)
)
script:Destroy()
end
script.Parent.Touched:connect(Cool)
