How to make a part spawn on the floor when I click?

Help and Feedback Scripting Support

I’m trying to make a part spawn on the ground or the floor relative to the mouse when I click. Right now it works sometimes but other times the part spawns above the ground or on top of something. I want the part to always spawn right on the ground.

We need to see the code to help solve the problem.

Yes, can you please show your code so that we can help you.

local mouse = game.Players.LocalPlayer:GetMouse()
local part = Instance.new("Part")
part.CFrame = CFrame.new(mouse.Hit.p)
part.Parent = workspace

Alright I kind of misunderstood your question.

In order to make the part spawn on the ground and not, for example, in midair or on a wall, you need to use RayCasting to find the place on the ground to place the part.

If you think you can do it yourself, give it a try. But if you are unfamiliar and would like my help, let me know and I will try to construct a script that does this for you.

I got bored, so I made it myself. I added some other important things to it as well.

Now, if you’re inside a building and you click on the ceiling, the part will spawn on the floor directly below it.

Make a LocalScript inside the tool with the following code:

local mouse = game.Players.LocalPlayer:GetMouse()
local equipped=false
local function fixpos(pos,part)
	local y = pos.Y
	local cutoff = part.Size.Y/2
	return Vector3.new(pos.X,y+cutoff,pos.Z)
end
mouse.Button1Down:Connect(function()
	if equipped then
		local p = mouse.Hit.p
		local ray = workspace:Raycast(p,Vector3.new(0, -1000, 0))
		local part = Instance.new("Part")
		if not ray then
			part.Position=fixpos(p,part)
		else
			part.Position=fixpos(ray.Position,part)
		end
		part.Anchored=true
		part.Parent=workspace
	end
end)

local tool = script.Parent
tool.Equipped:Connect(function()
	equipped=true
end)
tool.Unequipped:Connect(function()
	equipped=false
end)

Okay, it’s working now thanks.

The only issue with this is that you are able to click into the sky, and a part will spawn up in the sky.

if not mouse.Target then return end
