A generic recursive table copy function:

function Copy_Table(src, dest)
	for index, value in pairs(src) do
		if type(value) == "table" then
			dest[index] = {}
			Copy_Table(value, dest[index])
		else
			dest[index] = value
		end
	end
end

Your destination can be a sub-table in another table.

ns.datamodules.DamageTaken = {}
Copy_Table(dt, ns.datamodules.DamageTaken)
