I just got a (Vector3 expected, got number) error. How do I fix it?

Asked 642 views1 answers

I'm just trying to create a part from a different part. I'm not sure what the problem is. Here is my script

--A Script in ServerScriptService
local WallThickness = 4
local WallHeight = 50
local Part = game.Workspace.Part
local CreatedPart = game.Workspace.Part:Clone()

CreatedPart.Size = Vector3.new(WallThickness, WallHeight, Part.Size.Z)
--Error on the line below this one
CreatedPart.CFrame = CFrame.new(Part.Position.X - ((Part.Size/2) + WallThickness), (CreatedPart.Size/2 + Part.Position.Y), Part.Position.Z)

your value named WallThickness is a single number. You're adding it to Size on the line with an error. Size is a Vector3 value, and WallThickess is a single number value. Therefore, they cannot be added together. Maybe use (Part.Size.X/2) + WallThickness instead?

Thanks. I meant to add the ".X" in the first place, but I guess I messed up.
