How would I get the name of a table object?

Asked by

Say I have this script...

local Passes = {["DjDoor"] = 4846905
            }

How would I be able to to get the name "DjDoor" if I had the ID 4846905? Would I have to make ["DjDoor"] an array and add another string like this...?

local Passes = {["DjDoor"] = {4846905, "DjDoor"}
            }

Or is there another way to obtain it?

Just use a key-value for loop:


for key, value in pairs(Passes) do
    if value == 4846905 then
        print(key, value) -- You can access both
    end
end

Thanks, for some reason I thought that would have returned the index number. climethestair 1663 — 5y
