Make a Tycoon Dropper drop models?
I wanted to know if i could create a tycoon dropper and make it drop a model? i built a model and i wanted to drop it, like it could be in server storage and it would be cloned?
wait(2)
workspace:WaitForChild("PartStorage")
while true do
wait(2.5) -- How long in between drops
local part = Instance.new("Part",workspace.PartStorage)
part.BrickColor=script.Parent.Parent.Parent.DropColor.Value
part.Material=script.Parent.Parent.Parent.MaterialValue.Value
local cash = Instance.new("IntValue",part)
cash.Name = "Cash"
cash.Value = 10 -- How much the drops are worth
part.CFrame = script.Parent.Drop.CFrame - Vector3.new(0,1.6,0)
part.FormFactor = "Custom"
part.Size=Vector3.new(1.4, 1.4, 1.4) -- Size of the drops
part.TopSurface = "Smooth"
part.BottomSurface = "Smooth"
game.Debris:AddItem(part,20) -- How long until the drops expire
end

Use a weld script inside the model and clone the model from that script example: game.ServerStorage.MODELNAME:clone etc... minetrackmania 186 — 8y

First you model needs to be welded. Depending on your model's complexity you can do this manually or you may want to do it with a script.
-- Weld script by crazyman32
-- This goes in a script, the script goes in model.
--IMPORTANT: If your model is in ServerStorage or ReplicatedStorage you need to pre-weld the model.
function weld()
local parts,last = {}
local function scan(parent)
for _,v in pairs(parent:GetChildren()) do
if (v:IsA("BasePart")) then
if (last) then
local w = Instance.new("Weld")
w.Name = ("%s_Weld"):format(v.Name)
w.Part0,w.Part1 = last,v
w.C0 = last.CFrame:inverse()
w.C1 = v.CFrame:inverse()
w.Parent = last
end
last = v
table.insert(parts,v)
end
scan(v)
end
end
scan(script.Parent)
for _,v in pairs(parts) do
v.Anchored = false
end
end
weld()
script:Remove()
After you've welded your model, Set the primary part of you model. The primary part should probably be in the center top of your model.
Now simply clone the model, set parent, then use set the primary parts CFrame to the drop CFrame.
