Currently I’m making a furniture placement system where on key pressed a clone of the model is created and follows the mouse position.
However the problem is the model seems to clip into parts pictured below.
I had initially played with the idea of adding the floors y size to the tables CFrame but that only raises the part by one stud, not to mention it wouldn’t work if the floor was very thick.
ReplicatedStorage.FurniturePlacement.OnClientEvent:Connect(function(Table)
CreatedFurniture = true
mouse.Move:Connect(function()
if CreatedFurniture then
for i, v in pairs(Table:GetChildren()) do -- Table is the furniture model
if v.Name ~= "GridPart" then -- Gridpart is the primary part
v.Transparency = 0
end
end
SnapFurniture() -- "Snaps" furniture to grid
mouse.TargetFilter = Table
local floor = mouse.Target
Table:SetPrimaryPartCFrame(CFrame.new(Vector3.new(posX, posY, posZ))) -- Pos values from SnapFurniture function
end
end)
end)
raycast down from each table leg to get the height of the table. Also do a raycast from each corner to the center to see if’s intersecting anything or do #hitbox:GetTouchingParts()>ThatAmountOfPartsThatWouldNormallyBeInTheHitBox
You do checks to see if the part is clipping or if it’s grounded. If it’s clipping don’t let them place it. If it’s not grounded move it up or down accordingly.
You’ll need to find the height of the model. Usually what I do is have a transparent part that covers the entire model and acts as its collision box, and then you can find the height by simply finding the Y component of this parts size. Then, you just add half of this height to the Y component of your CFrame. That would be done in this part:
