Taking input from a GUI and positioning a brick?
2 answers
✓ Accepted answer
Have 3 textbox for X Y Z and then by creating a script such as:
EnterButton.MouseButton1Down:connect(function()
game.Workspace.INSERTNAMEOFBRICK.Position = CFrame.new(XBox, YBox, Zbox)
end)
Also make sure to have a TextButton for the Enter. By doing this you use CFrame to change the positions using Vector3 (Or CFrame). CFrame and Vector3 include a X,Y,Z. Entering the coordinates (X,Y,Z) you change the position.
Assuming you're going off of the Text property of the Gui then what you have to do is take the text, and convert it into a number using the tonumber method, and use the result as the arguments for the CFrame.
E.G.
local text = gui.Text
local num = tonumber(text)
local Cframe = CFrame.new(num)
workspace.Part.CFrame = Cframe

Whenever I change the Text values in-game it doesn't update and the brick stays in the same spot.
