table["Stuff"] = nil
expected > print(table["Stuff"]) > "nil"
got > print(table["Stuff"]) > "table:..."
(why is the format on this messed up?)
Whats wrong with this method? Do module scripts have any affect on this? I assume this is the wrong way of doing this, so can someone enlighten me?``
to accomplish this you have to use table.remove()

Now to answer the question you asked me after, to find the index of a value in a table like you asked, you have to iterate through the table, if you are planning on doing this a lot, I suggest using an index.
local index={}
for i,v in pairs(table) do
index[v]=i
end
return index["foo"]
I tried table.remove().. but the table wasn't at all removed. Confirmed that it was the correct # index. Table was still there... thanks for trying to help my stupidity.
are you using it correctly? In this instance it would be table.remove(table, 5) if the index of table['Stuff'] was 5
If you set the table to nil like this "Data[player.Name] = nil" removes the table.
