How would I check the children of the children in workspace?
for _, brick in pairs (game.Workspace:GetChildren()) do
if brick.Name == "Wall" then
print("found the wall")
end
end
This script checks for the children of workspace for a part named "Wall". However "Wall" is in a model which is a child of workspace...how would I get the wall part because the lines above only seem to search through Workspace and not the models inside of it.

Can't you just do game.workspace.WhatEverTheModelNameIs:GetChildren() Kryddan 261 — 8y

No because there are multiple models. SHDrivingMeNuts 299 — 8y

I'm assuming you want to scan the entire file structure of workspace. You need to create a function that scans a given table for the object you want. That function will call itself on every object it finds to scan its children and so on. This is the general idea:
function scan(table)
for _, v in pairs (table) do
print(v)
scan(v:GetChildren())
end
end
scan(game.Workspace:GetChildren())
