NEED HELP CREATING A RANDOM GENERATING STRUCTURE

Hello, I’m working on a project, and I’ve came across a little road-block, which I have no idea on solving. I’m trying to make a random generating structure, in one certain position. I’m trying to make the generating structure vary from three objects. Does anyone know/have a script that can do this.
I’ve searched all over and can’t find a solution so I hope someone can help here.
Thanks!

This really depends on what you expect the outcome to be.

Is this like a maze that spans indefinitely, or to a fixed grid?
Is this a tower that, every floor has a different layout?
Are you simply placing furniture about?

If you could draw up a schematic or show us the three objects you mentioned and how they might fit together, we could help.

As a starter; let’s say your objects form a tower and there’s 3 types of floors;

local floorTypes = game.ReplicatedStorage.FloorTypes:GetChildren() -- let's say these are your 3 objects
local position = Vector3.new(0,0,0) -- this is where the floors will be placed
local size = Vector3.new(30,20,30) -- let's say each floor is exactly 30x20x30 studs wide/high

for floor = 0,4 do -- 5 floors;
	local newFloor = floorTypes[math.random(1,#floorTypes)]:Clone() -- choose a random floor and copy it
	newFloor.Parent = workspace
	newFloor:MoveTo(position + Vector3.new(0, size.Y/2 * floor, 0) -- presuming each floor is a Model, position at the next floor
end

sounds pretty simple to me
create the three objects and stack them using CFrame and math.random
are you trying to make something like sds spires?

Well I’m working on this room, where in each server it is different, similar to Game 2 in Hexa Game.
I’m going to have 1 shape the player walks across, with 3 randomized options, and I can’t find or make a script on how to make the shapes vary in different servers.
Here’s a screenshot for reference:

If the location and dimensions of the puzzle is unchanging and only spawns once, you could literally just build all three of your puzzles and place each in a Model, then put those models in Replicated or Server storage.

Then when the server starts, just randomly pick one as I mentioned before and parent it to workspace when the server starts - no positioning required.

--ServerScriptService script

local puzzles = game.ReplicatedStorage.Puzzles:GetChildren()
puzzles[math.random(1,#puzzles)].Parent = workspace

Seems as simple as that if I understand your problem right.
