Hello guys i just wanted to create tower defense but explosion spawning at same position but not tower position here is the code:

local meganima = script.Parent.Humanoid.Animator:LoadAnimation(script.Parent.idle)
meganima.Looped = true
meganima:Play(0,9,0.1)
meganima.Ended:Connect(function()
meganima:Play(0,9,0.1)
end)

function givemoneytoowner()
local animaska = script.Parent.Humanoid.Animator:LoadAnimation(script.Parent.atack)
animaska.Looped = false
animaska:Play(0,9,0.5)
script.Parent.creator.Value.leaderstats[“Spare parts”].Value+=100
end
local sigomka = 0
while true do
if script.Parent and workspace:FindFirstChild(“Enemies”) then
if sigomka < 5 then
sigomka+=1
givemoneytoowner()
elseif sigomka >=5 then
local bybym =Instance.new(“Explosion”,workspace)
bybym.Position = script.Parent.ExplodingBarrel.Head.Position
bybym.BlastPressure = 0
DamageAllTargetsInRange()
sigomka = 0
end
end
wait(0.5)
end

If you format the code it’s much easier to read it etc like this

local hello = "world"

Anyways have you tried setting the position before making workspace the parent? I think when you set the explosion in workspace it goes off instantly

#3

Parent the explosion inside the “Tower” instead :+1:

i parented explosion to tower and it still spawning in position that tower was in server storage

#5

Please format your code with ``` ← these thingies :​D

Anyways, where is this script located? Are there any errors in the output?
I’m thinking script.Parent.ExplodingBarrel (or Head in it) doesn’t exist, not setting the Position.
Could you put;

print(script.Parent.ExplodingBarrel)
print(script.Parent.ExplodingBarrel.Head)

before creating the explosion to see if any of them are nil?

Also, doing Instance.new(class, Parent) is bad for performance, so i recommend setting the parent after creating the explosion

#6

if there werent object there will be errors in output but there is no errors and explosion spawning isnt in workspace position

#7

Try positioning it before parenting it.

			local bybym = Instance.new("Explosion")
			bybym.Position = script.Parent.ExplodingBarrel.Head.Position
			bybym.BlastPressure = 0
			bybym.Parent = workspace
			DamageAllTargetsInRange()
			sigomka = 0
