#1

I have a custom effect for developer, But i need the part that holds the emitters to always be on the ground, No matter how high the player is. It always needs to touch the ground. But i have some issues with it. So i need some help
Code:

			local rootpart = char.HumanoidRootPart
			local clone = game.ServerStorage.DevPlayerEffect:Clone()
			clone.Parent=rootpart
			clone.CanCollide=false
			clone.CanQuery=false
			clone.CanTouch=false
			clone.Anchored=true
			clone.Clusters.CanCollide=false
			clone.Clusters.CanQuery=false
			clone.Clusters.CanTouch=false
			clone.Clusters.Anchored=true
			clone.Transparency=1
			clone.UI.BillboardGui.TextLabel.Text=player.DisplayName.." ("..player.Name..")"
			clone.UI.Parent=rootpart.Parent:FindFirstChild("Head")
			rootpart.Parent:FindFirstChild("Head"):WaitForChild("VIPGui"):Destroy()
			while task.wait() do
				clone.CFrame=CFrame.new(rootpart.CFrame.Position)*CFrame.new(0,-2,0)
				clone.Clusters.CFrame=clone.CFrame
			end

How do I make a raycast go to bottom (with wall stick/gravity controller)
#2

Unsure what this code is supposed to be doing.

#3

Currently it places the part’s position (not rotation) at the player’s feet. But i want it to be on the ground.

#4

You can raycast straight down from the player and use whatever position that hits as the position of the part. Raycasting | Roblox Creator Documentation

#5

I unfortunately do not know how to use raycasts. Could u script it for me please?

#6

You’re going to learn how to use raycasts eventually anyway so why not learn now? This is a good example script for learning them.

#7

I would rather do it at a later point. So do u mind doing it for me? (i also learn a small bit in this way, rather than the roblox docs tutorials)

#8

Please? It is difficult for me to learn new stuff that is poorly explained for me

#9

The stuff roblox gave for me does not work. It does not want to make the part move on the ground under the player

#10

U there? @azqjanna, I need your help.

Current code:

			local rootpart = char.HumanoidRootPart
			local origin = rootpart.CFrame.Position
			local Direction = Vector3.new(0,-20,0)
			local rayDirection = Direction - origin
			local Result = workspace:Raycast(origin, rayDirection)
			local clone = game.ServerStorage.OmniverseEffectPlayer:Clone()
			clone.Parent=rootpart
			clone.CanCollide=false
			clone.CanQuery=false
			clone.CanTouch=false
			clone.Anchored=true
			clone.Clusters.CanCollide=false
			clone.Clusters.CanQuery=false
			clone.Clusters.CanTouch=false
			clone.Clusters.Anchored=true
			clone.Transparency=1
			clone.UI.BillboardGui.TextLabel.Text=player.DisplayName.." ("..player.Name..")"
			clone.UI.Parent=rootpart.Parent:FindFirstChild("Head")
			rootpart.Parent:FindFirstChild("Head"):WaitForChild("VIPGui"):Destroy()
			while task.wait() do
				clone.CFrame=CFrame.new(origin)*CFrame.new(Result.Position)
				clone.Clusters.CFrame=clone.CFrame
			end
