So Im trying to make a script that if lets say... a Part does not exist then it would print out (Part no Exist)

this was the script that I was just playing around with.

if workspace.Part then
    print("Good!")
else
    print("Bad!")
end

But the Output only says

Part is not a valid member of Workspace

Any tips?

This is actually quite simple. Here's how:

if workspace:FindFirstChild("Part") then -- Detects if a part named Part is actually in workspace and detects if its nil or not
    print("Good!")
else
    print("Bad!")
end

You can read more on :FindFirstChild() here. Please accept this answer if this helped!
