Game hierarchy

Introduction

What is Hierarchy?

Hierarchy is formatted text that is formed in a way to look like the Explorer window found in ROBLOX Studio. For example:

• Workspace
  • Camera
• Lighting
• Players

You can travel to the next step in the hierarchy by using the '.' character. For example:

game.Workspace.Part --notice how I go from 'game' to 'Workspace' and then to a hypothetical part all by using the '.' character
