Why doesn't this clone part work?

This script is actually bigger and I use :clone() more times where it works, it just doesn't work here. idk why tho.


local playrs = game.Players:GetChildren()
function ChooseSpawn()
spawnvalue = game.ServerStorage.Values.Spawns
spawnclonevalue = game.ServerStorage.Values.Spawnsclone
spawnvalue:GetChildren():Clone().Parent = spawnclonevalue
for i = 1, #playrs do
local spawnchosen = spawnclonevalue[math.random(1, #spawnclonevalue)]
spawnchosen.Parent = game.ServerStorage.ChosenSpawns.Spawns
spawnchosen:remove()
print (playrs.Name.." spawns on " ..spawnchosen)
end
spawnclonevalue:GetChildren():remove()

end



error: Workspace.WorkingScript:13: attempt to call method 'clone' (a nil value)

spawnvalue:GetChildren():Clone()

GetChildren returns a table. The table does not a function named Clone in it.

I know it's that part that doesn't make it work, that's the clone part but is there a way to make it work? I tried to figure it out but I don't know how to, I always used this way for things without GetChildren

Are you trying to clone all of the children of spawnvalue into spawnclonevalue?

Yeah, that's why I used GetChildren but I forgot that's a Read-Only thing.

GetChildren isn't read-only.

You could do
for _, c in pairs(spawnvalue:GetChildren()) do
c:Clone().Parent = spawnclonevalue;
end

That's poorly worded. The table can be modified but the changes won't affect the children.

And as last this part:

for i = 1, #playrs do
local spawnchosen = spawnclonevalue[math.random(1, #spawnclonevalue)]
spawnchosen.Parent = game.ServerStorage.ChosenSpawns.Spawns
spawnchosen:remove()
print (playrs.Name.." spawns on " ..spawnchosen)
end

has as error: Workspace.WorkingScript:17: attempt to get length of global 'spawnclonevalue' (a userdata value)

I added :GetChildren to it so it's:

for i = 1, #playrs do
local spawnchosen = spawnclonevalue[math.random(1, #spawnclonevalue:GetChildren)]
spawnchosen.Parent = game.ServerStorage.ChosenSpawns.Spawns
spawnchosen:remove()
print (playrs.Name.." spawns on " ..spawnchosen)
end

but it now gives this error: 1 is not a valid member of StringValue

I'm not hating. I'm simply laughing at how easy this is and the fact that you don't understand it.

Like I said before, there is a difference between hating something and having humor at something silly.
