Instance.new

Creates an instance through Roblox's own class registry (with a creatability check) and optionally parents it. Returns nil and logs a reason on failure (class not found, not creatable, etc.).

Syntax

Instance.new(className: string, parent?: any) -> Instance

Parameters

Parameter	Type	Description
`className`	`string`	The Roblox class name to match.
`parent?`	`any`	The parent value used by the call.

Returns

Type	Description
`Instance`	Instance?

Description

Instance.new is part of the Instances library. Instances are live proxies backed by game memory. Property reads and method calls go through Roblox's own objects.

Each call creates or returns a fresh object or value that you can store and pass to other functions.

Example

local part = Instance.new("Part", workspace)
part.Name = "MyPart"
part.Position = Vector3.new(0, 10, 0)

Notes

Instance proxies are backed by live game memory.
