Basically what you would need to is when ever they click the part it creates an instance of a part in a normal script.Now im not sure if that would appear on every client because one person is just clicking in the part im not sure it would make a change on the entire server.Here are the api docs you will need:ClickDetector | Roblox Creator Documentation and for instances:Instance | Roblox Creator Documentation

You could implement this on a LocalScript inside StarterPlayerScripts:

local Prompt = workspace.Part.ProximityPrompt

Prompt.Triggered:Connect(function()
    local PlayerPart = Instance.new("Part")
    PlayerPart.Size = Vector3.new(5, 5, 5)
    PlayerPart.CanCollide = true
    PlayerPart.Anchored = false
    PlayerPart.Position = Vector3.new(25, 0, 0)
    PlayerPart.Parent = workspace
    print("Part made on the client")
end)

Put a LocalScript in the click detector:

local part = --define part here
script.Parent.MouseClick:Connect(function()
    part.Transparency = 0
end

So in your ProximityPrompt code, fire the client using a remoteevent and this code:
remote:FireClient(Theplayerwhotrigger, PartInstanceThatGoToPlrOnlyParentedInReplicatedStorage)
Then local script:

yourremote.OnClientEvent:Connect(function(Part)
       Part:Clone().Parent = Workspace.CurrentCamera
end)

Explanation: Parenting basepart or model to CurrentCamera on the client makes the part appear only to the camera user. (that plr).

If this looked a little rushed, it’s because I wrote this on my phone
