I need help with a table?
I'm making a spawning script that uses a table but I don't know how to use a table other then typing in the what the table will have in it like
1 | local NPC = {"NPC1", "NPC2"} |
that's all I know how to do with a table but I want to select a citizen from the table in this script
1 | --1337Zombiegamer-- |
2 | local SpawnPool = {"Citizen", "Citizen1", "Citizen2", "Citizen3"} |
3 | local NPC = game.Lighting.Citizen |
4 |
5 | while true do |
6 | local NPCCopy = NPC:Clone() |
7 | NPCCopy.Parent = Workspace |
8 | wait(30) |
9 | end |
using math.random to spawn it in to the world from the lighting

You see here
1 | local NPC = {"NPC1", "NPC2"} |
In order to fetch these you have to do "Where it's located"[1] or [2]. The way that tables work is in order so for example
1 | local Bricks = {"Brick1", "Brick2"} |
2 |
3 | Workspace.Bricks[1]:Clone().Parent = Workspace.Model -- Clones Brick1 |
4 | Workspace.Bricks[2]:Clone().Parent = Workspace.Model -- Clones Brick2 |
