Hello everyone, so I want to make a water part, for example, a part that can fit in other shapes. like a water bottle that pours the water to another water bottle and filling the bottle’s shape.
I tried to think of ways to do this, but I have no idea how or where to start, is it even possible to create a part that changes shape to fit in other parts?
I looked for solutions in the developer hub, and on google and youtube, but I couldn’t find anything related.
Is there a way to do this? And if there is, what do I have to use to make it?
Thanks for who responds, I appreciate that a lot
P.S: Is this the right category to write this topic?
For complex shapes like a mesh or complex union, it’s gonna be a no.
If you want to create an effect of water spilling into a bottle you’d make a bottle with water in it first and have the bottle turn into that once you use water on it.
I was so intrigued by this idea I decided to do some experiments.
Roblox has a voxel grid system you can use to find out where all the parts are, and voxel terrain that you can fill in one voxel at a time, which in theory makes doing something like this actually possible!
So my first experiment was using a grid, and FindPartInRegion3 to see if a grid point had any parts in it, and then if it was completely empty, I would spawn in a water voxel using
What I discovered was that it works pretty well for parts that are “axis aligned” like the block that I am standing on, but does not work well for parts that have been rotated.
There is also a resolution limit to this method of 4x4x4 studs.
Thank you all for replying , I think I am going to try to use particles instead, I think it’s more simple because I want to do multiple things with it.
