So im trying to make a gun to my game, and it is working fine but when it came to the point to make the bullet appear and set it's position its wont work. Also i want to set its orientation to the mouse position, and also stop it at the closest object.

This is my script:

01local pistola = script.Parent
02local hole = game.StarterPack.Pistola.Hole
03local mouse = game.Players.LocalPlayer:GetMouse()
04 
05-- Lista de Valores --
06local ammo = 12
07local maxAmmo = 64
08local damage = 20
09local headshotDamage = 50
10local range = 100
11-- impedir spamming --
12local spam = false
13 
14    -- Disparo --
15    pistola.Activated:Connect(function()
16        if spam == false then
17             spam = true
18            pistola.Handle.Disparo:Play()
19           local bullet = Instance.new("Part")
20           bullet.Size = Vector3.new(range,0.25,0.25)
21           bullet.Position = hole.Position
22           bullet.Transparency = 0.5
23           bullet.CanCollide = false
24           bullet.Anchored = true
25           bullet.Parent = game.Workspace
26        wait(0.5)
27        bullet:Destroy()
28            spam = false
29        end
30    end)

So here's a summary of my questions: 1: Why isn't the position being set; 2: How can i get the position of the mouse; 3:How can i set the bullet size to stop when it hits something, like a wall or a player?

Thank you for helping me (if you did helped me XD) Also im using a local script, if you need to know...

You know you can ray cast right User#19524 175 — 6y

local ray = Ray.new(hole.CFrame.Position, (mouse.Hit.Position - hole.CFrame.Position).Unit*number) User#19524 175 — 6y

still doesn't work ;-; mewant_taco 17 — 6y

duh, bc thats only a part of raycasting, you need to use :FindPartOnRay() User#23365 30 — 6y
