Help with spraycan

[Penguin22305 (Pungu)]

Hi

I have made a spray can system but the spray parts don’t get the orientation of the object. So spraying it on the floor works but when I spray it on a wall it’s still horizontal

Client Script:

coroutine.resume(coroutine.create(function()
	while true do

		if isPainting then

			local userInputService = game:GetService("UserInputService")

			local mouseVP = userInputService:GetMouseLocation()
			local mouseRay = workspace.CurrentCamera:ViewportPointToRay(mouseVP.x, mouseVP.y)
			local params = RaycastParams.new()
			params.FilterType = Enum.RaycastFilterType.Blacklist

			local ignoreDescendants = {workspace.SprayPaint}

			for i,v in pairs(game:GetService("Players"):GetChildren()) do

				local char = v.Character or v.CharacterAdded:Wait()

				if char then

					table.insert(ignoreDescendants, char)

				end

			end

			params.FilterDescendantsInstances = ignoreDescendants -- Put the new spray paint parts in that model so it can ignore them

			local result = workspace:Raycast(mouseRay.Origin, mouseRay.Unit.Direction * 300, params)

			if result.Instance and result.Position then

				script.Parent:WaitForChild("Paint"):FireServer(result.Position)

			end
		end

		task.wait(0.02)
	end
end))

Server script just fires an event to all clients.
The event is received in this local script:

local RS = game:GetService(“ReplicatedStorage”)

RS:WaitForChild(“SprayPaint”).OnClientEvent:Connect(function(pos)

local part = RS:WaitForChild("PaintPart"):Clone()
part.Parent = workspace.SprayPaint
part.Anchored = true
part.Position = pos
part.Size = Vector3.new(1, 0.008, 1)
part.Material = Enum.Material.SmoothPlastic

end)

Thanks

If i’m not wrong, your issue probably is because you only copying and pasting the position where the raycast detected a object. so in order to make the spray parts rotate correctly on the floor, you can use

replace

script.Parent:WaitForChild("Paint"):FireServer(result.Position,result.Normal)

for

script.Parent:WaitForChild("Paint"):FireServer(result.Position)

in your client script

and here’s how to make that the part

replace this with your entire server script :

local RS = game:GetService(“ReplicatedStorage”)

RS:WaitForChild(“SprayPaint”).OnClientEvent:Connect(function(plr,pos,normal)

local part = RS:WaitForChild("PaintPart"):Clone()
part.Parent = workspace.SprayPaint
part.Anchored = true
part.Position = pos
part.CFrame = CFrame.new(part.Position, normal + pos)
part.Size = Vector3.new(1, 0.008, 1)
part.Material = Enum.Material.SmoothPlastic
end)

This hopefully would work for you in the first try, but if there’s something went wrong, feel free to tell me

you didn’t do strings correctly

@ThobbJack

“SprayPaint”

@ThobbJack

“ReplicatedStorage”

replace this “” with ""
