This is one of my first steps to creating a 4x4 grid. Say I click on a position at Vector3.new(3, 6, 13). I want to round that position to my 4x4 grid so I would probably do this??
function round(pos)
pos = Vector3.new(pos.X%4, pos.Y%4, pos.Z%4)
return pos
end
-- now round(Vector3.new(3, 6, 13) should round to Vector3.new(4, 8, 12)????
I have this function someone told me to round numbers. This will only round downward if I remember correctly.
function round(num, numToRound)
return tonumber(math.floor(num / numToRound) * numToRound)
end
local X = round(3, 4)
local Y = round(6, 4)
local Z = round(13, 4)
print('The position is '..X..', '..Y..', '..Z)
It should print "The position is 0, 4, 12".

will this work even if decimals are in the numbers? this is my last question.
Yes. The place it defines the number to round is in math.floor. That removes decimals.
great thanks
