The only problem being that the walls only spawn correctly when the player is facing a certain direction
VVV when the player faces the right direction VVV

VVV when the player faces the wrong direction VVV

How do I get the portals to appear just like in the first picture no matter what direction the player is facing

the current code

	NewGate:SetPrimaryPartCFrame((Character.HumanoidRootPart.CFrame + Vector3.new(math.random(-10, 10), math.random(4, 8),0)))
#2

try this:

local behind = Character.HumanoidRootPart.CFrame * CFrame.new(0,0,10) -- a point directly 10 studs behind player
local gateCFrame = behind * CFrame.new(math.random(-10,10),math.random(4,8),0) -- 10 studs either left or right to the character, 4-8 studs upwards
NewGate:SetPrimaryPartCFrame(gateCFrame)

Adjust the value to your liking.
