so if for example: script.Parent.Parent.Click1.Value.Value = 1 and I want to use brick A1 in my script Using: script.Parent.A[script.Parent.Parent.Click1.Value.Value].BrickColor = BrickColor.Green() doesn't work, what could I use so that brick A(value) turns green

script.Parent:findFirstChild("A"+script.Parent.Parent.Click1.Value.Value).BrickColor = BrickColor.Green()

Properties are prioritized over descendants when indexing. When you use "Click1.Value.Value" I'm assuming you're indexing a Instance named 'Value' correct? It's thinking "Get 'Value' property of 'Click1'" and if it doesn't have a 'Value' property then it will spew out a error. If it does have a property Value, then it's going to throw a error from "Value.Value" because I doubt your using a ObjectValue where in that case you could be doing so. If it is a descendant, then try renaming it to a name that's not a property name. If you're just trying to set the value of 'Click1' and not a descendant of it, then just do "Click1.Value = 1", and to get it's similar to set.

script.Parent:findFirstChild("A"..script.Parent.Parent.Click1.Value.Value).BrickColor = BrickColor.Green() Sorry I was thinking of Java
