How do I fix the error "Attempt to concatenate string with vector3?"
Hello, I am trying to clone a part inside another part, and make that part have a random place. Here is my code:
01 | local smallRandom = math.random(10, 20) |
02 | local mediumRandom = math.random(22, 35) |
03 | local largeRandom = math.random(38, 50) |
04 |
05 | local x = script.Parent.Size.X/2 |
06 | local y = script.Parent.Size.Y/2 |
07 | local z = script.Parent.Size.Z/2 |
08 |
09 | while true do |
10 | wait(smallRandom) |
11 | local smallclone = game.Workspace.SmallScraps:Clone() |
12 |
13 | smallclone.Position = script.Parent.Position + Vector3.new(math.random(-x, x), math.random(-y, y), math.random(-z, z)) |
14 |
15 | smallclone.Anchored = false |
16 | print("Part Spawned at " ..smallclone.Position) |
17 | end |
When I run it, the part never spawns and an error appears saying "Attempt to concatenate string with vector3"
I got this code from another place and modified it to fit my game, so I don't know how to fix this error.
Thank you.

1 | smallclone.Position = script.Parent.Position + Vector3.new(math.random(-x, x), math.random(-y, y), math.random(-z, z)) |
to
1 | smallclone.Position = script.Parent.Position * Vector3.new(math.random(-x, x), math.random(-y, y), math.random(-z, z)) |

I tried this out and the same error shows up. I looked at other forums and I think the solution might have something to do with tostring? Thank you for suggesting this answer, though. ImaginationPAYER 0 — 3y

i dont think tostring won't help because vector3 are vector and vector are numbers not strings WINDOWS10XPRO 438 — 3y
