I'm relatively new to scripting and I tried making a script where a model from Lighting (specifically an NPC) would be cloned and placed into Workspace. I don't know if the model being an NPC has something to do with it disappearing after a second or because it has multiple parts.
wait(1)
game.Lighting.NPC:Clone().Parent = game.Workspace
When you clone a model into Workspace, you’ll never know where it spawns. Another error is you used Lighting as storage but that method is deprecated.
local npcClone = game:GetService("ServerStorage").NPC:Clone()
clone.Parent = game.Workspace
if clone:FindFirstChild"HumanoidRootPart" then
clone.PrimaryPart = clone.HumanoidRootPart
clone:SetPrimaryPartCFrame(CFrame.new(0, 1, 0))
end
I tried using this script and the NPC spawns the same way it would as in the other script but it still keeps disappearing.Perhaps the error keeps occurring because I used a Part (named "NPC")as a parent for the actual NPC model? I'm not really sure if that affects anything.
Have the NPC model not parented to anything else but one of the storage services and Workspace. Don’t parent it to any part.
The NPC model is parented to SeverStorage but is says "NPC is not a valid member of ServerStorage."
But you have to set the cloned part as a variable. Parent itt to Workspace.
Er I don't really know how to do that. All I have right now is the NPC in ServerStorage and the script in Workspace.

Why did you put it in Lighting?
I tried moving it to different places and changing the script according to where it is but it makes no difference.
Move it to SeverStorage or ReplicatedStorage.
I tried doing that but the same thing still happens and its frustrating...
Did you try something like game.Lighting:WaitForChild("NPC"):Clone().Parent = game.workspace
No , and I just tried it right now and it works!Thank you so much.
