I am working on a script that will create new instances of an object, however after I create that instance I want to be able to address it via it's scripting name. How can I specify the scripting name of an object at the time of it's creation?

At the moment I have the following script for spawning a new instance of the object

script newobject pfft~ 02-stocha-freeze.pfft 4096 8

But I'm not sure how to go about specifying that object's scripting name, would love to hear any suggestions anyone might have

script newobject pfft~ 02-stocha-freeze.pfft 4096 8

I've also tried this but it doesn't seem to work, just creates a blank object with the scripting name attached

script newobject newobj @text “02-stocha-freeze.pfft 4096 8” @varname icecream

how to I get the text in quotes to actually stick as the object being created?

It looks like the problem is that you're using smart quotes (“”) instead of regular ones (""):
