CollectionService can't find tag?

Hi everyone!

As I am right now finishing up my building system, I’ve come across this very infuriating issue where CollectionService can’t find the tag that I just added…?

The reason why I’m doing this is because I want to check if the prop the player just placed is within the boundries of their “node” (a.k.a their little plot)

Here’s the function that checks it:

local function checkIfInsideNode(node, object)
	local min = node.Position - (0.5 * node.Size)
	local max = node.Position + (0.5 * node.Size)
	local region = Region3.new(min, max)
	
	local parts = workspace:FindPartsInRegion3(region, node, 100)
	
	for _,v in pairs(parts) do
		if tagService:HasTag(object, "Object") then
			tagService:RemoveTag(object, "Object")
			print('yes')
			return true
		end
	end
	print('no')
	return false
end

And here’s the part where I add the tag

local clone = item:Clone()
clone.Parent = node
clone:SetPrimaryPartCFrame(pos)

tagService:AddTag(clone, "Object")

I am still very confused as to why this happens.

Help is appreciated!

I don’t see anything wrong with collections services being used here unless it’s between the server and client where replication issues will occur.

Instead I believe the problem is with the region 3, so I suggest visualizing it using a part like in this post:
