Side note, you could use [img]http://wiki.garrysmod.com/favicon.ico[/img] [url=http://wiki.garrysmod.com/page/table/Copy]table.Copy[/url] instead of your own function. It supports additional stuff like recursive structures by [url=https://github.com/garrynewman/garrysmod/blob/451b4ff5d1aea7b9b06a8024ef706c248a79647e/garrysmod/lua/includes/extensions/table.lua#L36]keeping track of what it's copying[/url] and also [url=https://github.com/garrynewman/garrysmod/blob/451b4ff5d1aea7b9b06a8024ef706c248a79647e/garrysmod/lua/includes/extensions/table.lua#L28]supports metatables[/url]. But if you don't need that stuff it's fine (and probably better) to use your own. Aside from that, it seems like there is something else causing your issue that isn't related to what you've provided. I just tested your function with the table given and it worked fine.

also [url=http://pastebin.com/5x75auTy]tested it with the model key you provided[/url] and got the [url=http://pastebin.com/tPeaGHse]same working results[/url] which is an exact match to the first PrintTable output in your post.
The issue did turn out to be somewhere else in my code, because I was a dummy and copied table references rather than a table in a few of my modules. Thanks :)
