Piece of code that fills in blank spaces

I made a function that fills in parts just by saying where point A and point B is. Downside is that it has to be able to divide by its own Z, but here you go.

Code 
function calculate(a,b)
	local lastPosition = a.Position

	for i=1,(b.Position.Z-b.Size.Z)/b.Size.Z do
		print(i)
	
		local part = Instance.new("Part",workspace)
		part.Position = lastPosition + Vector3.new(0,0,a.Size.Z)
		part.Size = a.Size
		part.Anchored = true
	
		lastPosition = part.Position
	end
end

calculate(workspace.A,workspace.B)

what do you mean by that? i don’t understand

What if you have two different sized parts, at different angles from each other?

part.Size = a.Size

This won’t correctly fill in the gap, as gapfill would. I suggest checking out the plugin source code, to find a way to resolve this issue.

It was made in a few minutes and hasn’t been improved, there’s a problem where it’ll only work on even numbers.

I made an improved version, instead of doing multiple parts, it does one part that creates a part in between pointA and pointB.

Code 
function fillGap(pointA,pointB)
	local part = Instance.new("Part")
	part.Size = Vector3.new(pointA.Size.X,pointA.Size.Y,(pointB.Position.Z-pointB.Size.Z))
	part.Position = Vector3.new(pointA.Position.X,pointA.Position.Y,(pointB.Position.Z/pointB.Size.Z))
	part.Anchored = true
	part.Parent = workspace
end

fillGap(workspace.A,workspace.B)
