I have this script that's meant to move a preview for placing something, and I tried to make it lerp when you move the preview (similar to miner's haven), but for some reason it instantly starts spazzing out, am I doing something wrong here?

MMC = mouse.Move:Connect(function()
        local x = clamp(mouse.Hit.p.X,GridMin.X,GridMax.X)
        local y = clamp(mouse.Hit.p.Y+Preview.Hitbox.Size.Y/2,GridMin.Y,64)
        local z = clamp(mouse.Hit.p.Z,GridMin.Z,GridMax.Z)
        
        if OldPos ~= Vector3.new(x,y,z) then
            spawn(function()
                local LerpStart = OldPos
                --Preview:SetPrimaryPartCFrame(CFrame.new(snapTo(Vector3.new(x,y,z),Grid)))
                
                for i=1,60 do
                    Preview:SetPrimaryPartCFrame(CFrame.new(LerpStart:Lerp(Vector3.new(x,y,z),i/60)))
                    wait(0.01)
                end
            end)
        end
        
        OldPos = Vector3.new(x,y,z)
    end)

It's because the lerp is starting every time your mouse moves a pixel, resulting in a hundred lerp loops. A debounce might be what you are looking for.

Also CFrame.p is deprecated, use CFrame.Position. In other words you should be doing mouse.Hit.Position.X

I'm only running it when the snapped position changes (it's snapped to 1 stud)
