"FindPartsInRegion3" seems to be deprecated with no replacement

[CheeseGodTheEpic (CheeseGodYT)]

1. What do you want to achieve? I am trying to use Region3 to detect if any other parts are touching a selected part.

2. What is the issue? FindPartsInRegion3 is reporting as deprecated, and there seems to be no phrase when searching for “Region3” in WorldRoots anymore.
   

   

3. What solutions have you tried so far? I haven’t tried anything for my game yet, as I didn’t want to waste time, but I didn’t find a single post/video addressing this (tutorials used FindPartsInRegion3). It seems like what I may be looking for is ArePartsTouchingOthers (or maybe actually GetPartsInPart for my use case), but just wanted to understand the situation better.

This announcement should be your solution.

Introducing OverlapParams - New Spatial Query API

We are adding new WorldRoot (Workspace) APIs for performing spatial queries on BaseParts. It’s never been easier to figure out what Parts are within a given box, radius, or other Part! New Spatial Queries Here are three new functions that can be used: Objects WorldRoot:GetPartBoundsInBox(CFrame cframe, Vector3 size, OverlapParams overlapParams) Returns a table of all BaseParts whose bounding boxes overlap the given box at cframe and size. cframe is for the center of the box, and orientation…

GetPartsInPart is the successor to FindPartsInRegion3.
