You can write your topic however you want, but you need to answer these questions:

  1. What do you want to achieve? I want to make so If some part touches certain type of terrain for example sand then there’s dust coming from wheels.

  2. What solutions have you tried so far? I thought about making some blocks so when part touches particle emitter becomes true

Can you suggest me something to do?

I dont work with particles or any of that sort, but you could try and use a Touched event with a debounce, create some particles wherever you need them, then use Debris service to clear them.

Err, no. If you want them to only happen in a certain area maybe, but touched events are the way to go.

but how do I detect terrain materials, I need to know how they are called?

#6

Hmm, I dont think you necessarily can so you can try and make an invisible part or region I guess.

ok thank you I’ll try that :slight_smile:

Use WorldRoot:RayCast since the result will give you the part/terrain material.

Thank you, but is there an easier method?

workspace:FindPartsInRegion3 should also work but I don’t know what kind of array entry it exactly returns when Terrain is found.
