How do you grab a data value from a table so you can reference it as a property, not a child?
I am trying to make my avatar's body parts change into random colors, but then it keeps saying, "x is not a valid member of BodyColors," but c has information in it. I used this script:
local c = {"HeadColor", "LeftArmColor", "LeftLegColor", "RightArmColor", "RightLegColor", "TorsoColor"} local x = c[math.random(1,6)]
function a() local snak = game.Workspace:WaitForChild("snaks308070") snak:WaitForChild("Body Colors", 3).x = BrickColor.Random() end
while true do wait() a() end
Any help?

please specify what is "Body Colors" and if the "c" mentioned in the question is the array in the script, if not, specify what "c" is as well theking48989987 2147 — 5y

Similar to
Parent['Child_Name_String']
These can also be used to locate properties.
local partn = Instance.new('Part',workspace)
partn.Name = 'Part_ex'
local ex_name = partn['Name']
print(ex_name ) -- prints Part_ex.
Mainly because properties are like children, as such, they have similar features like this.
