Changing parent not working properly

Help and Feedback Scripting Support
#1

I have a script which imports an accessory using insert service. Insert service imports assets as models, and I would like to change the accessory’s parent, and take it out of the model.

Since I will be importing multiple accessories, I cannot refer to the accessory by name.

I tried the following, but it does not work.

local hat = game:GetService("InsertService"):LoadAsset(31101391)

hat.Parent = game.Workspace

local accessory = hat:FindFirstChildWhichIsA("Accessory")
accessory:Clone().Parent = game.Workspace

Does anyone have any ideas?

#2

You can do accessory:Clone():GetChildren()[1] as the model only has 1 child which is the accessory.

local model = game:GetService("InsertService"):LoadAsset(31101391)

model.Parent = game.Workspace

model:MoveTo(Vector3.new(-460.829, 95.253, -277.969))

model:WaitForChild("Handle").Anchored = true

local accessory = model:Clone():GetChildren()[1]

accessory.Parent = game.Workspace

I tried this but the accessory did not appear in workspace.

The Handle part is within the accessory, not the model.

local model = game:GetService("InsertService"):LoadAsset(31101391)

model.Parent = game.Workspace

model:MoveTo(Vector3.new(-460.829, 95.253, -277.969))

model:WaitForChild("Handle").Anchored = true

this part of the script already imports the model properly, but I want to make it so the accessory is not in the model.
