Script Addition Help

I have this script, it works, but all of the Aliens spawn at “0, 0, 0” and at the same spot, They also attack each other. How would I make the aliens spawn randomly around the surface of the map, and not attack each other??

local Alien = game.ServerStorage.Alien
local AlienAmount = 300

local SpawnedAliens = {}
local AlreadySpawned = false
while true do
	if (game.Lighting.ClockTime < 5 or game.Lighting.ClockTime > 18) and not AlreadySpawned then
		AlreadySpawned = true
		for i = 1, AlienAmount do
			local AlienClone = Alien:Clone()
			AlienClone.Parent = workspace
			table.insert(SpawnedAliens, AlienClone)
			wait(0.25)
		end
	elseif not (game.Lighting.ClockTime < 5 or game.Lighting.ClockTime > 18) and AlreadySpawned == true then
		if #SpawnedAliens > 0 then
			for i,v in pairs(SpawnedAliens) do
				if v ~= nil then
					v:Destroy()
				end
			end
		end
		AlreadySpawned = false
	end
	wait(1)
end

You don’t mention anywhere “AlienClone:SetPrimaryPartCFrame”. They’ll obviously spawn at the same place.

#3

… Where would I add that in?

#4

This part, make a new line and enter:

AlienClone:SetPrimaryPartCFrame(CFrame.new(Vector3.new(math.random(0,100), 0, math.random(0, 100))))

The middle 0, you can make it bigger if you want to make aliens spawn at more upper and you can change 100’s to add more randomity

#5

Like that, change the num1, num2 by the area limits (X/Z) and heightPosition by the actual height the map is in

my new script doesn’t work either

local Alien = game.ServerStorage.Alien
local AlienAmount = 300

local SpawnedAliens = {}
local AlreadySpawned = false
while true do
	if (game.Lighting.ClockTime < 5 or game.Lighting.ClockTime > 18) and not AlreadySpawned then
		AlreadySpawned = true
		for i = 1, AlienAmount do
			local AlienClone = Alien:Clone()
			AlienClone:SetPrimaryPartCFrame(CFrame.new(Vector3.new(math.random(50,500), 0, math.random(50, 500))))
			AlienClone.Parent = workspace
			table.insert(SpawnedAliens, AlienClone)
			wait(0.25)
		end
	elseif not (game.Lighting.ClockTime < 5 or game.Lighting.ClockTime > 18) and AlreadySpawned == true then
		if #SpawnedAliens > 0 then
			for i,v in pairs(SpawnedAliens) do
				if v ~= nil then
					v:Destroy()
				end
			end
		end
		AlreadySpawned = false
	end
	wait(1)

end
