Why is the position not changing?
I want to make custom attachments for my weapon, in this case I wanted to attach a small turret. The tool has an empty semi-transparent socket which should get replaced by the turret, but the cloned turret doesn't change its position and gets welded somewhere next to the tool. I made a button that replaces socket with a turret when I click it.
01 | local part = script.Parent |
02 | local ClickDetector = Instance.new("ClickDetector") |
03 | local serverStorage = game:GetService("ServerStorage") |
04 |
05 | ClickDetector.Parent = part |
06 | ClickDetector.MouseClick:Connect(function(player) |
07 | local tool = player.Backpack.Kosiarka |
08 | local pos = tool.Socket.Position |
09 | tool.Socket:Destroy() |
10 | local newTurret = serverStorage.Turret:Clone() |
11 | newTurret.Position = pos |
12 | newTurret.Parent = tool |
13 |
14 | local weld = Instance.new("Weld", newTurret.Part) |
15 | weld.Part0 = newTurret.Part |
16 | weld.Part1 = tool.Union1 |
17 | weld.C0 = newTurret.Part.CFrame:inverse() * tool.Union1.CFrame |
18 |
19 | end) |

Hello, if you have something in backpack, it does not have position, it is not placed in workspace!

Ohh, that makes sense. How can I weld it correctly then? Cymusichan 7 — 3y

Instead of setting pos's position as the position variable of the socket (Line 8), try making pos the CFrame of the socket. In other words change:
1 | local pos = tool.Socket.Position (Line 8) |
to
1 | local pos = tool.Socket.CFrame |

The part is still not on the socket's position, I get no errors Cymusichan 7 — 3y
