BasePart:Contains(Vector3) (working code included!)

That’s interesting, you essentially implemented a CFrame*Vector3. It might be faster to just use that instead of initializing three Vector3s and calling three dot products from Lua. This is what it’d look like:

local abs = math.abs
function PartContains(part, pos)
    local objectPos = part.CFrame:pointToObjectSpace(pos)
    local partSize = part.Size --avoid three extra indices! it adds up, you know
    
    return abs(objectPos.X) <= partSize.X / 2 and abs(objectPos.Y) <= partSize.Y / 2 and abs(objectPos.Z) <= partSize.Z / 2
end

I didn’t check if this actually worked, but given your implementation I’m sure it could be rectified if necessary. If you do happen to run a little benchmark, let me know, I’m curious.
