Hi. Looking for help on how to make my model names “iterate” themselves, for example,

*workspace.part
*workspace.part1
*workspace.part2

so on and so on…

If this helps, for context, I’m trying to do this to make assigning a light-up buzzer system like the ones seen in nuclear power control rooms. If there’s an easier fix for this, please let me know!

This is slightly different but might work for you, have you used tags? Read more here:

Just go to the command bar and rename lights depending on order:

local lights = --> lights here
for index, Light in ipairs(lights) do --> going through each light
    Light.Name = “Light” .. index --> renames each light
end
