Smaller the number, farther away? Why is this?

Help and Feedback Scripting Support
#1

I have a script that creates a new part below a certain part(Lets call it the origin), I noticed that if the Y value is smaller such as 5 the new part is much farther away from the origin. bigger the number, closer it is! So why is this? Why is the part farther away when the number is smaller?

It would help if you shared the script!

Oh yeah mb

weld.C1 = CFrame.new(Origin) * CFrame.new(x * spaceApart,-Range,y * spaceApart)

range is what makes it go down

Do welds work differently? Just realizing its a weld that Iā€™m changing. Fun!

weld.C1 = CFrame.new(Origin) * CFrame.new(x * spaceApart,-Range, y * spaceApart)

Is that y in the third argument of the CFrame constructor supposed to be a z by chance? It seems odd to use y * spaceApart instead of z * spaceApart.

I never noticed that. Let me go try something out rq

Ok so this is what Y is:

local y = math.sin(math.rad(t) * (rotate / (amount / amount)))

All this math just rotates it around a certain part. Idk I think I used Y instead of Z when creating the variable
