A new scripting function. Basically what it would do, is take one instance and convert it into another, discarding any properties that are no longer relevant, and setting any new properties to their default values. For example, turning a Truss in workspace into a Part. workspace.TrussPart:ConvertTo("Part") Then the truss would become a standard brick, but with all the same properties.

This is scriptable. Just save commonly used data from one object, remove it and put a new object in its place with the previous values. Not hard to do.

ROBLOX didn't make the programming language. Lua is a common used programming language. You should ask the creators of Lua to make changes...

@ Liir It is scriptable, but instances have variable amounts of properties. Trying to make an API script with compatibility for every instance would take a lot of work, and would be rather complex.

That's why you don't need to do it for /all\ of the instances. Just the ones that are in use for whatever system you're developing.
