What's wrong with this script?
function makeBrick()
Block = Instance.new("Part")
Block.Name = "RoundBlock"
Block.Shape = "Ball"
Block.Size = Vector3.new(4,4,4)
Block.Position = Part.Position + 4
Block.BrickColor = BrickColor.new("Bright red")
Block.Parent = game.Workspace
end
while true do
wait(10)
makeBrick()
end
--the brick doesn't spawn

On line 6 of that code block, you are trying to access Part.Position, which doesn't exist in that context.
Remove the reference, or make sure that Part is a valid reference to a BasePart Instance.

Alright, but is there a way to make the new part spawn 4 studs above the Part's position? (I got it to spawn, all i need is this answered now) LegoDude9630 15 — 10y

Yes, you just have to tell the script what "Part" is a reference to. At the top of the script, put 'local Part = Workspace.Part' without the apostrophes, and change 'Workspace.Part' to the hierarchy for the Part you are referring to. adark 5487 — 10y

Like what adark said, Part does not exist, you must use the instance you created which is Block.
Also, you have to use Vector3 and add two Vector3's together. The end result is this.
function makeBrick()
Block = Instance.new("Part")
Block.Name = "RoundBlock"
Block.Shape = "Ball"
Block.Size = Vector3.new(4,4,4)
Block.Position = Vector3.new(Block.Position.X, Block.Position.Y, Block.Position.Z) + Vector3.new(0, 4, 0)
Block.BrickColor = BrickColor.new("Bright red")
Block.Parent = game.Workspace
end
while true do
wait(10)
makeBrick()
end
