Using the following code, I wanted to move a Model I placed in ReplicatedStorage to mouse.Hit.Position when I click.
However, it doesn’t move the model and only places it into workspace
This is the layout in the Tool:
I have tried :MoveTo(), :PivotTo() :SetPrimaryPartCFrame().
I have also moved the original model into ServerStorage and that didn’t change anything either
Am I just formatting it wrong or is this not possible with models?
Does the model have a primary part? That’s all I see that could be the issue at first glance.
edit:
actually I see the script also destroys its own parent before doing the last line, which I think would also stop the script early.
you are doing Vector3.new(Hit.Position) which will error since Hit.Position is already a Vector3.
You are also destroying the tool before the thing is moved which means the script stops running before the object is moved
So far still no fix, I have altered the code to the following and i’m also giving video footage on whats happening.
I do have a PrimaryPart set on the model.
new server script:
(I also tried just “hit” instead of hit.Position)
Video:
P.S. I also just tried looping through all objects in the model and moving them to hit/hit.position. No success there either.
so far in the new server-script, I have never seen model:MoveTo(). if you’re trying to set the position of a model, you should be using :PivotTo(). However, you need to get the CFrame for using this, but mouse.Hit is already a CFrame, so the line would look something like this
repMDL:PivotTo(hit)
if it doesn’t work, let me know
I’ve tried that with the same outcome, also tried SetPrimaryPartCFrame and looping through each object individually.
could you send me your code? it should work. maybe you don’t have a PrimaryPart on the model. check to see if that’s the case.
also, are there any errors?
In the output it says “Unable to cast Instance to CoordinateFrame”.
Does PrimaryPart support meshparts?
PrimaryPart should work for any BasePart (a physical object, like a union or part for “instance” haha). could you send me the new code? I tested it in studio and it worked flawlessly.
WAIT, I just noticed that in the LocalScript, you shouldn’t put “plr” as the first argument. you do not need it because it’s already passed onto the next script automatically.
example LocalScript:
remote:FireServer(mouse.Hit)
example ServerScript
remote.OnServerEvent:Connect(function(plr, hit)
end)
THANK YOU! this was the issue. It’s always the tiny details
