Can't get welded parts to move simultaneously

[IK1L1]

Hey devs,

I’m trying to create a script that will weld a part that is dropped onto Plate.

However, when I move Plate, the dropped part only mimics the orientation and physics of Plate but stays where it is.

script.Parent.Touched:connect(function(hit)
	if hit.Name == "Plate" then
		script.Parent.Position = Vector3.new(hit.Position.X, hit.Position.Y+0.25, hit.Position.Z)
		script.Parent.Parent = hit.Parent
		local weld = Instance.new("WeldConstraint", hit.Parent)
		weld.Part0 = hit
		weld.Part1 = script.Parent
	end
end)

Any help will be appreciated, thank you!

Hi IK1l1,
I believe you may have to convert Position to CFrame. If it’s welded that should work.

@IK1L1

script.Parent.Touched:connect(function(hit)
	if hit.Name == "Plate" then
		script.Parent.CFrame = CFrame.new(hit.Position + Vector3.yAxis * 1/4, script.Parent.CFrame:GetComponents())
		script.Parent.Parent = hit.Parent
		local weld = Instance.new("WeldConstraint", hit.Parent)
		weld.Part0 = hit
		weld.Part1 = script.Parent
	end
end)

Give this a go
The line constructing the CFrame is pretty long so I’d recommend splitting it up
