How can I break a part into X amount of small pieces?

Help and Feedback Scripting Support
#22

This almost works.
The only issue is that the pieces dont actually fill up the window.

#23

the manual method isn’t the best for me. I’m going to have destructible buildings in my game so I dont think it would be too performance friendly if every single part had X amount of little parts in it.

#24

this is EXTREMELY promising.
I tried to use part fracturing system v3 but it requires parts to be positioned a certain way so that wont work for my game.

I tried FragmentSmasher and this is the very promising result I received.

As you can see though there is ONE small issue.
The fragments are always positioned in the same direction. If I can fix that. This would be perfect.
I’m assuming it has something to do with this part of code in the script.

local function CreateQuadrants()
        local Quadrants = {}

        local Region =
            Region3.new(
            Vector3.new(CenterPos.X, CenterPos.Y, CenterPos.Z),
            Pane.Position + Vector3.new(Pane.Size.X / 2, Pane.Size.Y / 2, 0)
        )

        local QuadrantA = Instance.new("Part")
        QuadrantA.Anchored = true
        QuadrantA.CFrame = Region.CFrame
        QuadrantA.Size = Vector3.new(math.abs(Region.Size.X), math.abs(Region.Size.Y), math.abs(Pane.Size.Z))
		QuadrantA.Parent = workspace

        QuadrantA.Transparency = Pane.Transparency
        QuadrantA.Reflectance = Pane.Reflectance
		QuadrantA.Color = Pane.Color
		QuadrantA.Material = Pane.Material
        table.insert(Quadrants, QuadrantA)

        local Region =
            Region3.new(
            Pane.Position + Vector3.new(Pane.Size.X / -2, Pane.Size.Y / -2, 0),
            Vector3.new(CenterPos.X, CenterPos.Y, CenterPos.Z)
        )

        local QuadrantB = Instance.new("Part")
        QuadrantB.Anchored = true
        QuadrantB.CFrame = Region.CFrame
        QuadrantB.Size = Vector3.new(math.abs(Region.Size.X), math.abs(Region.Size.Y), math.abs(Pane.Size.Z))
        QuadrantB.Parent = workspace

        QuadrantB.Transparency = Pane.Transparency
        QuadrantB.Reflectance = Pane.Reflectance
        QuadrantB.Color = Pane.Color
		QuadrantB.Material = Pane.Material
        table.insert(Quadrants, QuadrantB)

        local Region =
            Region3.new(
            Vector3.new(CenterPos.X, CenterPos.Y, CenterPos.Z),
            Pane.Position + Vector3.new(Pane.Size.X / 2, Pane.Size.Y / -2, 0)
        )

        local QuadrantC = Instance.new("Part")
        QuadrantC.Anchored = true
        QuadrantC.CFrame = Region.CFrame
        QuadrantC.Size = Vector3.new(math.abs(Region.Size.X), math.abs(Region.Size.Y), math.abs(Pane.Size.Z))
        QuadrantC.Parent = workspace

        QuadrantC.Transparency = Pane.Transparency
        QuadrantC.Reflectance = Pane.Reflectance
		QuadrantC.Color = Pane.Color
		QuadrantC.Material = Pane.Material

        table.insert(Quadrants, QuadrantC)

        local Region =
            Region3.new(
            Vector3.new(CenterPos.X, CenterPos.Y, CenterPos.Z),
            Pane.Position + Vector3.new(Pane.Size.X / -2, Pane.Size.Y / 2, 0)
        )

        local QuadrantD = Instance.new("Part")
        QuadrantD.Anchored = true
        QuadrantD.CFrame = Region.CFrame
        QuadrantD.Size = Vector3.new(math.abs(Region.Size.X), math.abs(Region.Size.Y), math.abs(Pane.Size.Z))
        QuadrantD.Parent = workspace

        QuadrantD.Transparency = Pane.Transparency
        QuadrantD.Reflectance = Pane.Reflectance
		QuadrantD.Color = Pane.Color
		QuadrantD.Material = Pane.Material

        table.insert(Quadrants, QuadrantD)

        Pane:Destroy()

        return Quadrants
    end

CenterPos is the origin of the break. (Where the crack starts)
Pane is the part being destroyed.

#25

I’ve customized the script a bit to fit some things I want but still having trouble making it fit the entire part.
It has something to do with this part of the region3

 Pane.Position + Vector3.new(Pane.Size.X / 2, Pane.Size.Y / 2, 0)

That causes the issue where its always angled the same. Not sure how to fix it.

#26

I will mark you as a solution. In FragmentSmasher some kind person actually left some code to adjust the position to fix the problem.
