Item / Building Placement (?)
I've scoured the internet for info on the programming of a placement system. I can't provide any code (I didn't find anything and have no clue how to program this), but if anyone could help me or point me in the right direction, that would be great.
Explanation is, I wanted to program a script that would create a part that would follow your mouse until you clicked the LMB. It would then immediately stop and stay in the position you left it in.
Sorry for the inconvenience.
(Don't know why I need to add this, but... Im not a beginner.)

What I think would be useful would be the Mouse object.
It has a few things that would help you:
Player:GetMouse()(returns aMouseobject)Mouse.Move(event that fires when the player moves their mouse)Mouse.Hit(CFrameproperty that is the point that the player's mouse is 'touching')Mouse.Target(BasePartproperty that is the part the mouse is 'touching')Mouse.TargetFilter(Instanceproperty where the instance and it descendants get ignored by theHitandTargetproperties)
You can easily move a part with these, for example:
-- LocalScript
loca Player = game.Players.LocalPlayer
local Mouse = Player:GetMouse()
local Part = game.Workspace.ExamplePart
Mouse.Move:connect(function()
local Position = Mouse.Hit.p
Part.CFrame = CFrame.new(Position)
end)
Hope I helped!
