Primary Part Of Model Does Not Exist When Reaches Client

Help and Feedback Scripting Support
#1

So I have an edge case I’m trying to deal with. I create a model with a primary part on the server, fire a client with a remote event passing the model, then destroying the model right after firing. However, the client only receives the model, while the primary part being nil. For example:

Server:

local model = Instance.new("Model", workspace)
model.PrimaryPart = somePart

remoteEvent:FireClient(player, model)

model:Destroy()

Client:

remoteEvent.OnClientEvent:Connect(function(model)
print(model.PrimaryPart) -- will print 'nil'
end)

As you can see, the primary part never gets replicated to the client. Can someone please explain this behavior?

Probably because somePart is not a child of model, therefore PrimaryPart never gets set.

Parent somePart to model before setting it as the PrimaryPart, then try again.

#3

No, the primary part does exist and it is parented under the model.

When it reaches the client it doesn’t exist.

#4

I just realized, model:Destroy(), you destroy the model while not passing in a clone instance. The reason it returns nil is because you destroyed it.

Experiencing the same thing. Did you ever resolve it?
