What is a model's Parent after being loaded in using InsertService?
In this script, I am trying to determine if the model is already in the player's workspace (not workspace, though, because that's not exactly where models from InsertService go). But I need to know where they actually go so I can change line 5 when it's looking the object.
model=game:GetService("InsertService"):LoadAsset("892228363")
function onTouched(hit)
local found = game.Workspace:FindFirstChild("model")
if found then
print("already here")
else
model.Parent=game.Workspace
end
end
workspace.touchthis.Touched:connect(onTouched)
Thanks <]:^)

The parent of insertservice is Model. So you can just Model:GetChildren() and parent all of that to the desired place. Also with the local variable 'found' when it's being inserted it uses a capital 'm' so it would be
model=game:GetService("InsertService"):LoadAsset("892228363")
function onTouched(hit)
local found = game.Workspace:FindFirstChild("Model")
if found then
print("already here")
for I,v in pairs(found:GetChildren()) do
v.Parent = where_ever_you_want_to_put_it
end
else
model.Parent=game.Workspace
end
end
workspace.touchthis.Touched:connect(onTouched)
Also InsertService will not work if you don't own the place and the model you are trying to insert is not in your inventory. But if it's gear then you would no problem.
