Region3 not detecting character/player

Help and Feedback Scripting Support

  1. What do you want to achieve?
    A working region3 that detects the player/character.

  2. What is the issue?
    The region3 isn’t detecting me when I go inside of it.

  3. What solutions have you tried so far?
    I checked to see if the size of the region3 was actually what it was supposed to be, and it was.

local part = script.Parent

local region = Region3.new(part.Position - part.Size/2, part.Position + part.Size/2)

local parts = workspace:FindPartsInRegion3(region, part, 20)

while wait(1) do
	for i, part in pairs(parts) do
		local player = game.Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(part.Parent)
		if player then
			print(player.Name)
		end
	end
end

Maybe check another print() statement that every Part that’s inside the region is actually being printed?

local part = script.Parent

local region = Region3.new(part.Position - part.Size/2, part.Position + part.Size/2)

local parts = workspace:FindPartsInRegion3(region, part, 20)

while wait(1) do
	for i, part in pairs(parts) do
        print(part)
		local player = game.Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(part.Parent)
		if player then
			print(player.Name)
		end
	end
end

The issue might be that you set a cap to 20. You can set it to math.huge, and it should fix it.

Still no result. And if you’re wondering why it isn’t printing out the baseplate it’s because I slightly lifted it above the ground.

Put the FindPartsInRegion3 call inside of the loop, otherwise, it will only get the parts on runtime.

Try to constantly run get parts in regoin.

local part = script.Parent

local region = Region3.new(part.Position - part.Size/2, part.Position + part.Size/2)

local parts = workspace:FindPartsInRegion3(region, part, 20)

while wait(1) do
        parts = workspace:FindPartsInRegion3(region, part, 20)
	for i, part in pairs(parts) do
        print(part)
		local player = game.Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(part.Parent)
		if player then
			print(player.Name)
		end
	end
end
