You can write your topic however you want, but you need to answer these questions:
-
What do you want to achieve? Keep it simple and clear!
Hello everyone! I am trying to make a roblox local script for my gui, for a placement system, the script.Parent is a textButton, so whenever its pressed it places down a block. -
What is the issue? Include screenshots / videos if possible!
Well, it places one model but not the other, despite having zero changes. ive altered both models and sometimes one works but the other does not regardless of which I place first. I am very stumped. -
What solutions have you tried so far? Did you look for solutions on the Developer Hub?
I have searched placement systems, mouse position detection, but I cant find a solution, I even tried using AI to help fix it to no avail.
Hierarchy of the builds:
as you can see, the mine works but the furnace doesnt. earlier when trying to fix it it was the furnace not working but the mine working. Im really confused.
