Cloning a model to workspace?
I want to clone "Map2" from Lighting if it gets removed from Workspace. Here's my attempt which didn't work.
local map = "Map2"
local backup = "Map2"
local find = game.Lighting:FindFirstChild(backup)
local area = workspace
if game.Workspace:FindFirstChild(map) then
print ("Map found")
elseif
(backup) then
backup:Clone().Parent = area
end

The problem with your code is that it is just going to run at the start of the server, and be done.
If you want this to be in effect constantly you should use the ChildRemoved event. This event fires whenever a descendant of the specified object is removed.
Note: Lighting isn't meant for storage, you should use ServerStorage.
Note[2]: There's no need to define the same thing twice.. line 2 is redundant
local map = "Map2"
local backup = game.ServerStorage:FindFirstChild(map)
workspace.ChildRemoved:connect(function(child)
if workspace:FindFirstChild(map) then
print ("Map found")
else
backup:Clone().Parent = workspace
end
end)

"backup" is just a string. "find" is the actual backup map. So you should do
elseif find then
find:Clone().Parent = area
end
Next time check the output because I guarantee there are errors.
