How can I clone an item from ServerStorage to a specific part in a model?
I'm trying to make a cannon that will fire projectiles stored in ServerStorage
Whenever I try to call out the item, instead of cloning a freestanding object where the barrel of the Cannon is, it simply merges the fireball with the Cannon model after spawning a cannonball in relative to it's last place on the Workspace before it was moved to ServerStorage.
I need it to be able to be spawned at the "Barrel" point of Model named Cannon to the point where I can apply a vector force and the likes.
local storage = game:GetService("ServerStorage")
local cBall = storage["cannonBall"]:Clone()
cBall.Parent = game.Workspace.Cannon.Barrel
This is what I have so far, I can't go any further due to the part either not spawning in or it being merged into the Cannon model
Thanks in advance for any help

That should clone your part into the other object. However, you need to change the position of the part you cloned, here is an example for your script;
local storage = game:GetService("ServerStorage")
local cBall = storage["cannonBall"]:Clone()
cBall.Parent = game.Workspace.Cannon.Barrel
cBall:MoveTo(game.Workspace.Cannon.Barrel.Position)
That uses the :MoveTo() function, you can use the position property, but MoveTo is much easier.
If you want to learn more about the MoveTo function, here is the wiki page:
