Trying to make a part spawn in a certain position when I click, I already tried to the script and it didn’t work. Anyone know whats wrong?
mouse.Button1Down:connect(function()
local new = main:clone()
new.Parent = workspace
new.Anchored = false
new.CanCollide = true
new.BrickColor = BrickColor.Random()
new.Position = Vector3.new(-139.5, 6.156, -42.242)
end)
Are there any errors? The script works fine on my end.
the part where it clones just didn’t seem right, Method is a CaseSensitive so clone() should’ve been Clone() instead of that
Being case sensitive means that even if the name has been the same, casing will make it different.
It might be a bug with my studio, but I find that setting the position doesn’t work. Try modifying its CFrame.
new.CFrame = CFrame.new(Vector3.zero) -- example position
In Luau method names are case-sensitive, so :clone() should be :Clone()
mouse.Button1Down:Connect(function()
local new = main:Clone()
new.Parent = workspace
new.Anchored = false
new.CanCollide = true
new.BrickColor = BrickColor.Random()
new.Position = Vector3.new(-139.5, 6.156, -42.242)
end)
This is true. Most all method names in Luau are case sensitive, however, :clone() will still work. It is a depreciated method name, but still functions the same. This is the case with other methods as well, such as :connect(). The methods still work and function the same, and are still part of the Luau method library, they just aren’t used/updated.
Back to the issue, I don’t believe that it is an issue with using main:clone() instead of main:Clone(), as I have just tried it and both work just fine.
My hypothesis is that there is an error occurring elsewhere in the code.
EDIT: Possibly with the “main” part variable?
local player = game.Players.LocalPlayer
local mouse = player:GetMouse()
local main = game.Workspace.MainPart -- Replace 'MainPart' with the actual name of the part you want to clone
mouse.Button1Down:connect(function()
local new = main:Clone()
new.Parent = workspace
new.Anchored = true
new.CanCollide = true
new.BrickColor = BrickColor.Random()
local targetPosition = mouse.Hit.p
new.Position = targetPosition
new:MakeJoints()
end)
This would position a part relative to where the mouse clicked. I don’t think this is what OP wants, however, if it is then this would work great.
As of now, the only thing we know is that the “script doesn’t work”. We don’t have any other info. 
is this server script or local script?
local script as the mouse inputs
fixed for no reason 
cant believe i forgot to turn off spotify 
and uhh upgraded a bit
minecraft be like:(upgraded again)
local player = game.Players.LocalPlayer
local mouse = player:GetMouse()
local main = workspace:WaitForChild("main") -- Replace 'MainPart' with the actual name of the part you want to clone
mouse.Button1Down:connect(function()
local new = main:Clone()
new.Parent = workspace
new.Anchored = true
new.CanCollide = true
new.BrickColor = BrickColor.Random()
local targetPosition = mouse.Hit.p + Vector3.new(0,2.5,0)
new.Position = targetPosition
new:MakeJoints()
end)
set your part name that gonna be cloned to main and should work fine.
what is the parent of the script?
hmmm thats true what if script is parented to part?
i’m wondering if it could be parented to the replicated storage, causing it to not run
Set the parent as the last property, this wont fix the script, but it’s just more performant.
mouse.Button1Down:connect(function()
local new = main:clone()
new.Anchored = false
new.CanCollide = true
new.BrickColor = BrickColor.Random()
new.Position = Vector3.new(-139.5, 6.156, -42.242)
new.Parent = workspace
end)
