Hello! Sorry if the title did not make sense. Essentially, I have a flat, nearly 2D like part which acts as the area I want the fire to randomly spawn on. (The fire is linked to an invisible part that sets its position) However, I have 2 problems: Firstly, I only know how to make the fire spawn randomly on a squarish base (just generate a random x and z vector from the parts center). However, I am using a circular base, so I have no idea how to make the fire spawn on it randomly. Secondly, I want multiple fires to cover the part, but I’m afraid that if I just randomly generate a position for the fire it could cause the fires to all sit at one position, instead of covering the entire part. How would I solve this?
If I understood you correctly then I’m pretty sure that you have to use Poisson Disk Sampling. I’m pretty sure someone made a module for this so look for that if you don’t want to be bothered with the math.
After some searching, I think I know how to use the Posisson Disk Sampling method or a slight modification of it. My problem now would be defining the area the fires can spawn on. Normally on a squarish/rectangle-like base defining the area would be easy, just take the length and breadth of the base. However, what if the shape was a circle in my case, or a unique shape?

The Poisson Disk Sampling only works in circles anyways so you don’t really need to define anything except for the radius.
