Why is this part going up but not going to the left?

Asked by

Here is my script that I have problems with:

MiningArea = script.Parent.Parent.Parent
PartPos = script.Parent.Position
function CClone(Xadd, Yadd, Zadd) --Function
    local part = game.Lighting.Block:Clone()
    part.Parent = MiningArea.Blocks
    part.Position = script.Parent.Position
    script.Parent.Position = Vector3.new(PartPos.X + Xadd, PartPos.Y + Yadd, PartPos.Z + Zadd)
    wait(0.01)
end


CClone(0, 5, 0) -- Goes up by 5

CClone(0, 5, 0)

CClone(0, 5, 0)

CClone(0, 5, 0)

CClone(0, 5, 0)

CClone(0, 5, 0)

CClone(0, 5, 0)

CClone(0, 5, 0)

CClone(0, 5, 0)

CClone(0, 5, 0)

CClone(0, 5, 0)

CClone(0, 5, 0)

CClone(0, 5, 0)

CClone(0, 5, 0)

CClone(0, 5, 0)

CClone(0, 0, -5) --This goes up for some reason!

I added comments that tell you things. Please help me ASAP.

If this is just a problem concerning math, have you tried simply using  positive 5 instead on the Z value of the last line of your script, (0,0,5) ??? JoeRaptor 72 — 6y

You define PartPos outside of the function, so it doesn't get updated.

Just define it inside the function.

function CClone(Xadd, Yadd, Zadd) --Function
    local PartPos = script.Parent.Position -- moved
    local part = game.Lighting.Block:Clone()
    part.Parent = MiningArea.Blocks
    part.Position = script.Parent.Position
    script.Parent.Position = Vector3.new(PartPos.X + Xadd, PartPos.Y + Yadd, PartPos.Z + Zadd)
    wait(0.01)
end

Also use local variables you savage
