Here’s how you index a property with a space in the name:


workspace.TableLamp["Origin Position"] = Vector3.new(0, 0, 0)

However, it is not possible to change this property via Lua code.

If you want to move the model to the origin you could set the PrimaryPart property to a part inside the model and run the following code:


workspace.TableLamp:SetPrimaryPartCFrame(CFrame.new(0, 0, 0))

Another option would be to use :MoveTo() but if there are any obstructions in the way then the model will be moved up.


workspace.TableLamp:MoveTo(Vector3.new(0, 0, 0))

yeah the orgin position gave me an error

Origin Position is not a valid member of Model "Workspace.TableLamp"

So I guess ill try move to

So using move to does solve one problem but I still need to access orgin orientation and I cant do that

I believe you can use Origin Position by using the model’s PivotTo() function. Although this way requires you to use CFrame instead of Vector3 starting off. In order to get the Origin Position of a part you can use GetPivot() as well.

Instead of Origin Position use Position.

You CAN’T set model positions, you can only use pivots and :SetPrimaryPartCFrame().

Model.WorldPivot will give you what you need

also Model:MoveTo() and Model:PivotTo() to move models
