Description
cloneref is part of the Instances library. Instance helpers traverse the live DataModel and return instance proxies tied to the current game session.
Each call creates or returns a fresh object or value that you can store and pass to other functions.
The aliases clonereference(instance) resolve to the same implementation.
Example
local ref = cloneref(workspace)
print(compareinstances(ref, clonereference(workspace)))
Notes
- Aliases:
clonereference(instance). - Returned instances are live proxies; they can become invalid if the object is destroyed.
