  1. What do you want to achieve?

Hello, I decided to script a building system for my game. The first goal was, that a part would have the exact position, the cursor is pointing to in 3D Space.

It should look like this:

My script:

--Local Script, StarterPlayerScripts
local Player = game.Players.LocalPlayer
local Part = game.Workspace.Wood
local Mouse = Player:GetMouse()
while wait() do
	Part.CFrame = Mouse.Hit
end
  1. What is the issue?

  1. What solutions have you tried so far?

I looked in the Developer Hub, but I found nothing that could fix my problem.

Any help would be appreciated

Make sure your box is anchored.

The mouse.Hit is detecting the part and placing it ontop of that.

To fix this use

Mouse.TargetFilter = Part

just under where you defined mouse.
