Two lined search?
So I have been scripting quite a while now when I came across a problem, I cannot access a two lined name. Such as a weapon named Redcliff Sword. How would you access that simply like using
game.StarterPack.Redcliff Sword:clone()
Any help?

It's very simple.
game.StarterPack["Redcliff Sword"]:Clone() --Notice the lack of a period after 'StarterPack'
Or, alternatively, if you're not certain it exists:
game.StarterPack:FindFirstChild("Redcliff Sword"):Clone()

Wait could I keep oing with that by doing: game.StarterPack["Redcliff Sword"].Script:Destroy() Do I need a period after ] or no? SiIentSins 0 — 10y

That line is correct. You can use this method wherever you would use a period: Workspace["Object 1"]["Child 6"].Period["Stoof Bloof"]:Clone().Parent = Workspace adark 5487 — 10y

I think it's always good to remind askers of the syntactic sugar behind `.`. A.B is doing behind the scenes A["B"]! BlueTaslem 18071 — 10y

I was not aware that was syntactic sugar! Sometimes even the knowledgable learn. adark 5487 — 10y

Please provide explanation with your answers. Simply posting code does not spread knowledge of integral scripting processes which helps people understand the logic and reasoning behind your answer.
s = game.StarterPack["Redcliff Sword"]:clone() s.Parent = --Wherever you want to put it.
