How would I make a unanchored part splat on touch

So I want to make an unanchored part splat a decal on the ground on touch, but I don’t want it to be massive, just small. How would I do this?

The best way to do is is to create a part at the point of impact using .Touched (I would look into raycasting, it is a lot better than touched, but it is up to you). Your code would look something like this:

local part = --Part path here 

part.Touched:Connect(function(partTouched)
    local partPosition = part.Position 
    
    local decalPart = Instance.new("Part")
    decalPart.Size = Vector3.new(4, 1, 4) --Change these to whatever 
    decalPart.Transparency  = 1
    decalPart.CanCollide = false 
    decalPart.Anchored = true 
    decalPart.Position = partPosition
    decalPart.Parent = game.Workspace 

    local decal = Instance.new("Decal") 
    decal.Texture = -- Your texture 
    decal.Face = Enum.NormalId.Top 
    decal.Parent = decalPart 
end)

Keep in mind this would only work for a part falling down on the ground. If you want it to work with all sides, use raycasting, but that is beyond the scope of this question.

The script does not work out of the box. You have to specify a texture where I put a comment saying --Your texture I’m assuming you understand how decals work.
